I know there's a glut of bubble tea places in NoVa, but I do really love this place. It's not just…read morebecause it happens to be very close to me, but I think the tea that serves as the base is really good quality. I like the various foam options, and they have a few teas that aren't always available at other boba shops like roasted green tea. They also make the interior cute with its wall adhesives, a little crane machine, and various tiny things for purchase.

Yum! I've been to two other java loco locations and this one…read morehas a lot more lattes than the others I have been to. I tried the biscoff cookie latte and it has a very robust coffee flavor that is truly what you want when you order an iced coffee. The cold foam and biscoff crumbles add a great touch. Perfectly sweet to me but if you do not like sweet coffee at all then do not get this. I also had a egg and cheese bagel not pictured but it was freshly made.

I fell in love with Vietnamese Salt Coffee when I visited Vietnam, so I was on a mission and…read morecrossing my fingers that I could find something similar back home in NoVa. My bestie told me about Java Loco and they did not disappoint, their Vietnamese Salt Coffee is so much like what I had in Vietnam, it's thick, it's sweet and so flavorful. I LOVE it and highly recommend! I try my best to drink it slow, but that's literally impossible, it's perfection!

My go-to spot. Love the food. The warmth. The people!…read more It's consistent in every possible way. And my favorite spot to take friends who rave about other pho spots... yeah right.

We came to Caphe on the recommendation of some friends, but left disappointed…read more Some of the good at Caphe: the crispy roll is indeed excellent and the vermicelli fine. However, the young male staff is rather rude and indifferent. First, off there is a Wi-Fi available "Caphe Guest" (see photo). I asked one staffer what the password was, because Caphe is in one of those sections of Old Town where wireless access, like Verizon, is notoriously poor. The guy gave me some garbled answer and walked away. Alrighty, so I asked another staffer and he said he didn't know what the password was and walked away. That leads up to my order of chicken pho. I asked for no cilantro and that same waiter repeated my request for no cilantro. But when the pho was brought to my table, the green in the pho looked suspiciously like cilantro. I asked the waiter about it. He looked at the pho and said it was not cilantro. I took a sip and quickly determined there was cilantro in the pho. When I tried to get my server's attention, as he was standing in back of the counter, he saw me and haughtily turned away. So, I took the pho up to counter and asked that my order be remade. To Caphe's credit, Caphe did correctly remake my order.. But the pho broth was brown and had an odd canned flavor. It just wasn't very good.

Vibes: super cute. It's clean and cute inside and I could honestly see it being an awesome place to…read moredo some work or catch up with friends. Pricing: standard-ish for milk tea/boba in this area. Like $8-9 for a drink with boba. They only have one size here. Service: the employee working was very nice. Jasmine milk tea with boba: 2/5. The tea barely tasted like jasmine. After letting it sit for a bit, then remixing, it had a waxy consistency. I asked for my drink to have 100% sweetness. I ended up asking for additional sweetener twice because the tea was so bland that I was trying to salvage it. Boba tasted like absolute nothing and wasn't a good kind of chewy.

Stopped by here on a whim and wow this place is so cute!…read more Aesthetics of this place are very thought out and provides an inviting experience. For Boba, I recommend the Flan Boba. I have yet to have met anyone who has not enjoyed that flavor. I will need to come back to try the Banh Mi, but purely off first impression, I really like this place. Give these guys a chance - you may just like it!

Went in for coffee and a snack around 4pm. Ended up ordering a cappuccino with oat milk and a…read morebreakfast croissant with egg and avocado. Was super excited they served a vegetarian breakfast sandwich all day as none of their other sandwiches were veggie. All good. Set up my laptop to do some work. The drink and sandwich came quickly. The sandwich was really terrific, warm and full of freshness, and there were condiments galore available if you wanted them. What dropped the visit was the lack of general awareness from the people running the store. Someone came to do deliveries (dad?) and they propped the door open to unload their van. They slowly moved things armful by armful - ok I get it, it's probably a family business, and it's hard work. Leave the door propped open. Gusts of cold wind were coming in and blowing so hard even the gals behind the counter would look over at the door open. I ignored it and went back to my laptop. It was open a while. After a bit I didn't see anyone going in and out, but the door was still open. Now other patrons were glancing at the door as they were getting blasted by the "feels like 21" wind. A little while later the guy who was bringing in items emerged from the kitchen, said goodbye to the people working there (his kids?) and walked out, closing the door behind him. Ok so we froze for no reason as he was done moving stuff but left the door wide open when talking with the staff. For a while. After that I couldn't get comfortable again. I noticed that they were not busy for a spell but one of the gals behind the counter played on her phone rather than cleaned up the spills on the counter or swept the floor. Those small quick things would have improved the inside greatly. Again I get it, this is hard repetitive work, but the awareness was lacking. The food and drink were not good enough to make up for this. I personally doubt I'll be back.

The rose petals & tapioca added a nice touch - it was light, sweet & aromatic. While spacious, they don't have much seating space.

The boba is very good but the staff desperately needs to instill a tight cleaning routine during downtime. I got matcha smeared on my pants.

Our drinks came out pretty fast, and the employee who made them was very friendly. The shop was clean, inviting, and had plenty of seating both inside and outside if you want to relax and enjoy your drink. As for the drinks, we weren't huge fans of the amount of fruit included, but the lychee in my drink was absolutely delicious. I ordered the regular sugar level and realized afterward that I should have gone a little sweeter--it would have made the drink even better. Overall, it was a good experience, and I'll definitely be back to try more flavors.
