Dear reader, Misha's on Prince Street offers the same excellent coffee and menu that people already know and love, but with a completely different atmosphere. The biggest advantage here is the amount of space. There is plenty of seating outside, throughout the main floor, upstairs, and even on the upstairs deck, making it very easy to find a comfortable place to settle in with a drink and stay awhile. The coffee was just as good as expected, and the coffee cake was excellent. The staff was also nice and efficient, keeping everything moving without making the experience feel rushed. The only thing that kept this visit from matching the King Street location was that the space felt a little neglected in comparison. The upstairs bar area, in particular, seemed deserted during our visit, and seeing what appeared to be an expired liquor license posted on the wall gave the impression that the space was once used in a greater capacity, but that's purely just speculation. Overall, it is still a lovely coffee shop with great drinks, plenty of room to spread out, and a relaxed atmosphere. I would happily return, especially when I am looking for a quieter place to enjoy my coffee. read more

Had high hopes but the service was off which affected the entire interaction. Not very welcoming when we walked in and wasn't clear where to order. After standing a couple minutes in what we thought was a line, she finally asked if we were ready to order (yes, we had been ready!). I ordered a lavender oat milk latte which somehow was made iced and she didn't seem happy to have to remake it. Very little conversation ensued with both counter people. Just was odd. We paid and went up to enjoy on the rooftop deck on a brisk morning. There were ants on the table and my chair so we moved to another table. Coffee was decent but that's the best we can say. read more

I went in off a recommendation off a coworker. I got a flavored latte w oat milk (pumpkin and caramel syrup) and a donut as pictured. All the food looked good but landed on a pastry and something about the icing was good and not commercial. The space was a cute coffee shop vibe and has a mural. Looked clean as well. The staff was friendly and quick I didn't wait for long. For a weekend definitely expect a line. I think consistency is different depending on who makes it. The first time I went I didn't taste my syrups and I got two but when I went the second time I thought it tasted really good. It was a guy with a bunch of silver ear piercings and he was very kind and nice. read more

They have an outdoor patio with lots of seating! We got a coffee and apple cider, both were good. The apple pie was not the best, so maybe skip the pastries. read more

The Misha's Coffee down by the water has some great balcony space to sip your coffee on a warm day. The downside is this place can become very crowded and chaotic in a small space. The coffees were fine. Staff were pleasant and the coffee arrived quickly. read more

Happy little place. Coffee was not as fresh if I hoped for. I come back and give it another try. Happy vibe. Patio on roof top. read more

This place popped out at me because it shares the name with my sweet tabby cat I lost last year. The cafe has a beautiful location near the water, and the rooftop seating gave a nice view of the park. It's a wonderful place to enjoy a hot or iced beverage. I had a London Fog Latte with oatmilk and really enjoyed it. They also had a delicious apple strudel, which was a nice vegan treat. The staff was nice and asked questions to make sure they got your order right. It was clean inside and out, I really enjoyed spending a little bit of my morning here. read more

I went to this coffee shop while I was down south visiting friends. They said that it was a popular shop loved by many. I got a tea latte while here and it didn't disappoint. My friend got a lemonade and said it was great too. It was a cute shop and the girl who helped me was so nice and helpful. The shop itself was very cute too. It was def worth checking out! read more

Misha’s Coffee - Lavender London fog lattes - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Alexandria, Virginia

In my opinion I like this location better than the other one further in from the water. It's really solid coffee for the price/size. Nice rooftop area to sit and look by the water. It's definitely my go to when in Alexandria. Only downside is it can get very crowded downstairs but it's to be expected given the immediate area. Coffee 8.6/10 Atmosphere 8.8/10. read more

Stopped by Misha's and tried what I believe was the pecan sticky bun (we're calling it that ). It was really good, soft and flavorful. I do wish they had offered to warm it up because I think that would've taken it to the next level. I didn't think to ask until I sat down, but I feel like that small touch would've made a great treat even better. I also had the lavender fog latte and wow... 10/10. Smooth, floral, just the right amount of sweet. I was so inspired I'm now on a mission to recreate it at home! I sat upstairs by the window next to the rooftop, and the vibe was perfect! It was quiet, chill, and great for working. I got some business planning done and enjoyed the cozy setup. Only downside? The AC was directly on my back where I was sitting, though it may be a plus for some haha. There's only one bathroom stall, so a bit of a line forms when it gets busy. Overall, I'd give it a 4/5. Great drinks, good food, solid atmosphere. Definitely planning to return! I want to try the strong espresso that everyone raves about! read more

It's always a bumber when coffee shops don't have mugs and unfortunately the coffee itself was just okay. I don't know if it's just in my mind but I think the plastic doesn't help the taste either. That being said, there is some great patio seating on the second floor and the staff seems pretty friendly. The wood design with big windows makes it feel warm and cozy as well. read more

Extremely pleasant staff and their system is good hit coffee itself was sub par. Maybe it's what I ordered but I almost died of unmixed chocolate powder read more

Cute coffee spot for whatever your vibe is. If seeking a place to work, might be best to go upstairs where there the space is smaller and a bit quieter. As I was here in the winter, I didn't get to enjoy the rooftop space, but I hear it's a great area in the warmer weather and provides a nice water view. read more

This was not the first place we stopped for coffee - but it should have been. I only got a drip, but it was fantastic. The folks were friendly and let me know they roast their beans at their other location. I got the medium roast and it didn't disappoint. Plenty of space to hang out or you can walk to the water front nearby. read more

Amazing coffee with a great view. The staff are super friendly and outgoing. Definitely a great place to visit on a slow work morning or if you want to grab some coffee and walk around Old Town or even just hanging out with a friend or work colleague. They do get busy but overall 5/5. read more

Nice coffee shop with good seating/balcony area. Ordered a cafe latte with oat milk. Wish they used a different oat milk brand, but aside from that great place to hang out, work, or stopby for quick snack. read more

Despite the lack of reviews, this coffee shop is packed. I guess people know about the awesome 2nd floor patio with waterfront views. Great way to relax with a cup of coffee. I got their Staff Recommendation of the Week: Cinnamon Hazelnut Latte, which I got a 20oz ($6.15) w Half & Half (+$0.80). It is on the pricey side for sure, maybe even more than Starbucks, but it sure is tasty. read more

Misha’s Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Alexandria, Virginia

I met my uncle here last weekend after not realizing there were two locations in Alexandria and we each went to a different one. My spot won out because it was less busy and more seating available around 1030 on a Saturday. Their menu is vast, they moved through their line pretty quickly, and their coffee was good. My uncle has a dirty chai. He let me try it and I have to say, it was the strongest chai spice I've ever had. I would definitely want to add some vanilla or something to make it a little sweet for my taste. I had a hazelnut latte and it was great. Prices are standard. He had a slice of their coffee crumb cake and I had their yellow cake with chocolate icing. Both were delicious. They have ample seating with tables downstairs, upstairs, and a patio. Many people came in with their pooches and went directly to the patio which I kept in mind for my next visit! The only thing that was awkward is they didn't ring you up until your drink was ready but not consistently, which left some cashiers wondering if some customers had paid, or all of a sudden having you come back to the register to pay. Not as efficient as having you pay as they type it in. Otherwise, a great place only slightly off the beaten path of King St, which I prefer, and I'll definitely be back, with my dog for the patio! read more

Conflicting messages for dogs allowed upon arrival, rated #1 dog friendly cafe near me but upon arrival service dogs only posted at door. Tried calling to confirm and was sent to voicemail, opening the door to ask directly before entering was given attitude and judgement. The tiramisu mocha was delicious but I could barely enjoy it I had felt so embarrassed by staff read more

Finally got a chance to check out this location after hearing about it for a while! The staff was so helpful and pleasant! I got a lavender iced coffee and a coffee cake, which were both just what I needed! This location has three spaces open for seating: inside on the first and second floor and the rooftop! I obviously chose to work on the rooftop which was cool even on a hot day! It wasn't too crowded out there and I was happy to see there were outlets as well! I'll definitely be making my way back there!! read more

Really good coffee and excellent service. Pastries really good. Chairs outside could be repaired or replaced.

Kaleb is the best barista artist ever! Ask him to make your vanilla latte (hot or cold or sugar free) and prepared to be wowed with a caffeinated (or decaffeinated) blast of heaven! He's good! The espresso used at Misha's is also top notch and the coffee cake, strawberry cake, and PECAN STICKY BUNS toooo good! One complaint: why are so few sticky buns available on the days they're on the shelf. The store only receives 1-2 pecan sticky buns a few times a week despite the fact that the sticky buns are their BEST baked good offering (after that - the strawberry cake and the coffee cake tie for second best). Anyhoo, great staff, charming setting for dates, couples, or for singles, and a quaint indoor atmosphere that is sweetly classic! I hope this place - and the Misha's on King Street as well - continue to be so consistently superb bc Misha's is my FAVORITE Coffeehouse eatery ever!!! GOAT thus far!!! Facts! May Jesus Christ, thru His Virgin Mother Mary, bless the Misha's staff, patrons, admins, ALL families and us ALL! Amen read more

Delicious! Located along a busy strip in Alexandria, which is already a great spot to walk around already, this coffee shop feels authentic and offers a great / unique blend of pastries, pies, coffees, and teas with ample indoor and outdoor seating. Staff are super friendly and do not rush you to order. Price are fair and some of their pies are baked in house. There's also really nice outdoor seating for people watching and savoring your coffee. Highly recommend this local spot and suggest you try the food beyond just drinking their coffee or tea. read more

Coffee shop with a bunch of different drink and pastry options It is a popular spot so it can feel a little chaotic, especially when ordering. Have a few tables on the first floor, but also additional seating, both inside and outside, that is upstairs. The upstairs outside seating has a pretty nice view of the water as well I got a vanilla late and an apple fritter. The latte was underwhelming, but the pastry was pretty tasty. read more

I go to Misha's every time I am in Alexandria, because they have great coffee, roasted locally, and a warm atmosphere. Unfortunately, life has kept me away for about a year. I was excited to be back in the area and able to visit one of my all-time favorite coffee spots to grab an afternoon Cafe Breve to drink while I wandered King St. Everything was up to standard except the illusory superior barista, that instead of saying they didn't understand my order, proceeded to educate on the origin of the words "cafè" and "breve" in a tone dripping with condescension. With her poor understanding of "cafè" meaning coffee (however in the birthplace of this word it is espresso) and "breve" meaning made with half and half (actually meaning short in Italian, but that's semantics) created a sub-par latte that was not the typical Misha's delight. read more

Coffee was good, this is a great place to study, get some work done. I didn't go upstairs but the reviews say it's also nice read more

Outstanding! I always try to pop into this cute coffee shop whenever in the Old Town area. It's the perfect location to grab a quick cup and head to people watch down by the water. I was greeted by Timothy who energetically took my order. I explained that I typically like my coffee with my cream and sugar, so he recommended a vanilla latte with almond milk. I agreed and reminded him that I enjoy a sweeter tasting coffee, and he said he got me! Well, Timothy was ON POINT!!! The vanilla latte (4 pumps of vanilla 3 pumps of hazelnut I think) was deliciously sweet and perfect to enjoy as my afternoon delight! I enjoyed this tasty treat while sitting on a bench - people watching the afternoon away. read more

Prices match the location, so expect to pay $6 or more per coffee! Baristas were efficient and able to help you select drinks. Some pastries and savory breakfast items were available, along with a well curated selection of to go drinks in the fridge. I loved the dirty pumpkin chai special they had! read more

Was walking around the area and stopped in this coffee shop. The service was quick and the prices were relatively decent ($3 for a double shot of espresso). The roaster in the back was cool to see and had I not been on a walk, I would've considered purchasing some to bring back home. Ambiance was typical coffee shop vibe. It was relatively busy for early afternoon as well so it was a good sign. The coffee was pretty standard. read more

Just popped in to cool down in the summer heat. The barista made an off menu drink that was chocolate and lavender. It was amazing. So much flavor but not super sweet. Wish I had another morning on my trip to come back and try the food. read more

Great coffee quick service do not miss the chocolate croissants. Good selection of teas also.

Delicious French press coffee to go plus a rare treat- English sausage rolls! Wow- such a nice surprise- and delicious.

My friend and I stumbled upon this coffee spot coming from eating. We went inside and one of the workers was telling us about the bakery items and the coffee. My friend got some tea and he said it was really delicious. I did t want anything. I do want to go back this summer because they have a rooftop that serves drinks so when the weather breaks I will definitely go over and have a drink. read more

The line was long when we came in but it moved very quickly! The front area was crowded but by the time we were done getting our coffee it cleared out a lot - and plenty of seated space downstairs and upstairs. We really liked the nitro sweet cream- and the iced vanilla latte was good but tangy and I almost wish had more ice so it could've been a little colder. But would go back! read more

Mishas is a regular stop for me and I must recommend it anyone! I've been to both the new location on the waterfront and the other one on King. I love this location, aside from the occasional flooding that the area experiences....and I love the view from the rooftop terrace. The top level also has a nice bar top for the evening time. They have a large variety of pastries that are delivered regularly and one of the baristas is learning to make amazing latte designs! I went today and he made a seahorse....yeah, a seahorse!!!!! This is the best place to stop while walking your dog, you always see so many pups when you go. read more

Came on a Sunday at 11:30am to meet some friends. The line to place orders was out the door, so that lets you know that folks like it. A friend was already upstairs at a table, so I went right in. The upstairs area is very small and only has 1 high top table and one regular height table. And a unisex restroom. But there's a balcony overlooking the water, which is nice. Friends ordered a couple of pastries, one savory and the vegan apple one. They also ordered coffee and said it was really good (one friend ordered beans to go). I'm not a huge coffee drinker, but I would return for the vibe and location. read more
