Coffee is always delicious here and the service was quick, plus the lattes had cute foam art.

Great coffee and awesome service! Chicken Chorizo Flatbread is delicious! They have mobile order ahead so I don't have to wait in a long line. With the app after your first purchase you get a free drink of your choice. Countless rewards. Love them read more

Horrible employees have attitude towards their customers. I had my daughter come in because she needed the restroom for an emergency and they denied her and force me to buy something in order to get code to use the restroom. What kind of people force u to buy just to use a restroom. Have some decency and help when someone has an emergency! Bad Business. Code is 1258 tho if u need the restroom. Tho they might change it later. read more

Not my favorite iced coffee, but it gets the job done. Little more expensive than Starbucks. $3.91 for a medium iced coffee with coco milk. Non-dairy options are soy milk, almond milk, and coconut milk. Lots of outlets and it's a good vibe for getting work done, not too loud and they play relaxing music. Lots of natural light. read more

PSA: I was professionally pickpocketed at this location in mid-July 2017. Someone reached in my large and closed purse, pulled out my wallet, removed the credit cards, left my metrocard and ID and put the wallet back. Skillz. There is a security camera facing where I was sitting. At first the manager seemed very responsive in regards to getting footage. Yet, three weeks later, I've gotten the following excuses: 1) that she doesn't know how to replay back the tape 2) that her IT person is "afraid" to roll back the tape in fear of deleting the footage and 3) that the district level was able to access the tape but that "the light from the windows made the image blurry" Doesn't this seem like a lot of BS? The conspiracy side of me thinks those cameras don't work, or hell, that they are working with this professional ring and getting a cut. Aren't they concerned that their customers are being targeted? The pickpockets used all of my cards at a Target in Maryland, and luckily all were caught by my banks immediately. Lessons learned: 1- keep a card at home 2- keep your purse tight 3- don't trust corporate America to be on your side. I mean what are these excuses?! Enjoy your trip to DC but be careful around the White House! read more

I love Peet's coffee and cappuccino. Based off of all the Peet's I've been to this is a good standard and my experience was great.

I've heard of Peet's Coffee before and I'm glad that my first experience was in the Washington DC location. The employees were very friendly and the location had a great atmosphere to study or have a nice conversation in. Whenever I go to a coffeeshop, I always order a cold brew and the Baridi Blend Iced Cold Brew was very good with a strong taste! Just how I like my coffee! read more

Whenever I can get to Peets outside of the West Coast I am there. They tried to find a place in Georgia but chose the wrong location - Alpharetta. Bad choice for a test market guys. You should have chosen Midtown. So Peets is just the best coffee. It has the most body, consistent baristas. This is some serious training required to get a consistent cappuccino and latte correct EVERY time. They continue to do this as a chain. Strange thing did happen to me at this location. Inside of the store exiting the bathroom I stepped in a pile of doo doo. Seriously! We debated whether it was human or dog. I'd still go back. I'm a loyalist. read more

I had to come to downtown DC for a short visit and spotted this little coifed shop. I hadn't had breakfast and needed coffee so I stopped by around 10 am. It was crowded. The staff was friendly and the clientele were business types. It's located close to the White House. I got a medium cafe mocha with a egg, ham, n cheese half sandwich. Very tasty! The service was excellent n quick. The coffee was made perfect and so was the sandwich. The total bill was $9.96. read more

Peet's Coffee - A cool little flower shop on the street outside the restaurant. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Honestly, in my experience, most famous chain coffee shops like Peets are pretty good and standard across the board, generally with similar qualities of drinks and pastries. Since that makes it somewhat tricky to rate them differentially a lot of the time, I pretty much judge them based on two crucial qualities: bathroom sanitation and number of available outlets. This Peets wins a 5/5 in bathroom sanitation; they have those spacious one person bathrooms where you just open the door, and you're welcomed with the pleasant breezy scent of cleanliness! Thus, it was so close to getting 5 stars in my book, but when I moved tables to reach an outlet space during the middle of my afternoon visit, I plugged in my charger to find out that it was a faulty outlet (no electricity flowing). I had to move again, which is somewhat of an inconvenience when you have a lot of stuff with you, and there wasn't an abundance of outlets to begin with. In summary, thumbs up for bathroom sanitation, thumbs down for easy outlet accessibility. read more

Peet's Coffee - Chai latte was quite balanced in sweetness.. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

When I moved to DC in 2007, my first boss went on and on about how amazing Peet's Coffee. 7 years later, he and I are excited that there are several Peet's Coffee in the DC area. This particular location is right next to the White House and has a constant flow of customers from open to close. Despite that, you can usually find a place to sit. I always get an iced latte and the foam they put on the top makes it different from any other latte in the city. read more

Good location close to the White House. Their barista was really nice and funny ( we ripped out $10 bill while giving it to her and she still took it & taped it ). Sad to see some Peets close around the dc/ va/ mf area when they give such a good coffee house experience. read more

Place is PACKED after visiting the Renwick Gallery yet their service is still quick and they are doing it well. Place just has a good vibe and ample space to sit. Also, $1 off a Havana Cappuccino with Yelp! :) happy 50th anniversary Peet's! read more

Peet's Coffee - Iced Mocha - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Dark chocolate pumpkin mocha was delicious! Sweet but not too overly. Faint pumpkin flavor and very chocolatey.

Good cappuccino (with heart) & lemon bread. Good place to rest our weary bones after a 7 hour tour of DC. Service was good. Just needs a good scrubbing of floors! A clean restaurant is at the top of my Must Have checklist. read more

My review is 2-stars, but it possibly could be a 1-star. I have always been a big fan of Peet's Coffee and was thrilled to see it close to the White House, during our visit. The cashier taking our order, kept saying "your total is.." when we were a party of four individually ordering drinks and something to munch on. She totally missed orders because of this and resulted in our orders not actually being prepared. She also showed lack of accountability and care for this. Also, I ordered an iced coffee and my boyfriend an iced vanilla latte which were both underwhelming. Please just go to Starbucks across the street at least what you get there is consistent! read more

They provided super great service to me this afternoon! Christian was super helpful and accommodating on helping me choose a drink and took extra care when I informed him of my dairy allergy. The latte I got was delicious. read more

I'm very mixed about this review. Being a big Peets fan, I love their coffee and what they provide to their customers. The staff is nice and the location is prime (right next to the white house); however, there was something that was pretty basic that threw me off. I got my regular drink and also asked for a cup of ice water. The water I got was in a small plastic cup, not a separate peets cup (like the ones for their iced drinks) that I was expecting. This was fine; I understand maybe they did not want to waste the iconic cup for just water or that maybe there are too many tourists that just come in for water. As I was drinking the water though, I realized that there was plastic and specks floating in my cup. I really don't think having filtered water is that hard or costly, and was pretty grossed out by it. Having a little more faith in peets though,I was wondering if it happened to be just a fluke, so I asked again for water, offering my now empty peets cup that filled my iced coffee. The staff went over to the faucet and filled my cup, and again, there was floating plastic and stuff in my water. I would warn anyone against asking for water and just hope that peets actually decides to invest in buying water filters. read more

Visiting DC for the first time. Decided to try Peet's instead of Starbucks. Very pleased with that decision!! The chai tea latte was refreshing. Love the style of the decor. Polite and friendly workers. I'd highly recommend Peet's to others and hope to return in the future. read more

Peet's Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

This location is located very close to the 1600 Penn Ave NW and as you can imagine, this Peet's Coffee is very busy . . . so much so, you will be lucky to find a seat within 15 minutes of getting your coffee. Anyhow, the staff are friendly even with the high volume tourists. read more

I was pick pocketed at this location today. I have also heard of other people being pick pocketed here with similar stories of a card suddenly missing from a wallet. My drink was good! read more

I was wanting to try Peet's coffee after seeing a few and was tired if Starbucks. SO glad I did! What a great place and friendly staff. My drink - white chocolate mocha with peppermint - could not have been better. I will definitely be stopping in again! I even picked up some k-cups to take home with me. Topher was so friendly and helpful in getting me to the right metro station. Thank you!!! read more

This is a great Peet's Coffee location! The employees were so friendly and helpful. Our drinks came out fast, and we enjoyed their outdoor seating. A great stop, so close to the White House. Try the iced green tea tropical fog. Yum! read more

Great surroundings, good coffee would really recommend it if you pass by the White House read more

Peet's Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

One coffee shop I wish we had in the South because the beans and flavors are perfection. This Peet's is conveniently located near Renwick Gallery and the White House. There's lots of seating and the baristas are quite friendly. I usually go for a caramel latte but opted to try something new and was happy with the decision. I had one of their seasonal drinks: the holiday spice latte; if you like cinnamon then you will enjoy this drink! read more

My boyfriend and I stopped at Peet's before hitting up the gallery. I had the Hibiscus Berry Splash Tea (very flavorful and only 160 calories), it was super tasty and refreshing. As for my boyfriend , he got the Cold Brew Fog and thought it was really nice ! He also got a double expresso and it was less bitter than he expected. Also on Fridays from 1-3 it's buy one get one! :) read more

My favorite coffee spot by far! Even the simple iced coffee with a splash of milk is soooo good :)

It was nice sitting in here while it was raining. I got a chocolate and caramel swirl blended drink and it was really good. The employees were friendly. I also had some of my dad's brownie and it was delicious. I wish they had more Peet's coffee in ca. read more

Meh the service was not pleasant(trust me im from new york. I don't expect southern kindness) and cappuccino- you can make it better. So much bubble on the steamed milk. read more

Great quick breakfast spot. Only one hot entree but was excellent (Crispy ham and Swiss).

For any West Coast Peet's fans, do not expect the same quality of service or taste at the locations out East. I sometimes come to this location when I'm feeling nostalgic for home (I'm from CA), and the Peet's brand just isn't up to par at any of the locations I've been to out here. I've been to this location three times and two of those times they messed up my orders. Honestly, I'm not a fan of Starbucks, but at least they're able to get orders right on a regular basis. read more

I. LOVE. PEET'S COFFEE. Visited a peet's coffee by coincidence because I had no idea that there were Peet's locations. I'm from Miami... I buy whole beans at Publix. Absolutely delicious & friendly people at all the locations I went to. I wish there was a Peet's in Miami!! FACT: better & fresher than starbucks read more

Peet's Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

On a Sunday at around 6 pm, I ordered ahead using Mobile Ordering. One Mocha Javiva without whipped cream, and one Chocolate & Caramel Swirl Javiva. When I walked in the store, the drinks weren't ready. No worries, I browse the store's products until they're ready. When they're placed for pickup, I noticed one drink was not what I ordered; the Chocolate & Caramel Swirl had neither Chocolate, nor Caramel, nor whipped cream. It looked just like a coffee Javiva. I asked the barista, who wasn't wearing any Peet's "uniform" or even a name tag (maybe she was in a hurry to clock out), whether this was a chocolate caramel swirl and whether they had any whipped cream. She answered that the chocolate and caramel "are in there" (I've ordered this drink numerous times and you can ALWAYS see the chocolate and caramel swirls "in there," as it shows on the Peet's app/website), and that I didn't order whipped cream because it's not listed on the printout. I said I did, and that it's not on the printout because it's standard with the order; whipped cream is only listed if someone orders a Light Javiva or a Javiva without it, in other words when the order differs from how the drink is made, as the Mocha Javiva had "NO Whip" on the printout. She takes the drink, puts whip on it and slides it over to me with utter contempt. Again, without chocolate or caramel sauce on the whipped cream. I ask her if she could please place some sauce on the whipped cream (at this point I'll settle for either Chocolate or Caramel). She laughs, rolls her eyes, shakes her head, and produces mocha sauce not from a container or a squeeze bottle, but from an open coffee cup, drips it over the whipped cream, places the drink on the counter, and walks away to the back. Needless to say, I won't be coming back to this Peet's location ever again. It's horrific that a business has such an appalling lack of customer service, especially one block from the White House and other tourist attractions. When someone pays for your service, they should never feel like they're inconveniencing you by simply asking you to fulfill the order. If you like Peet's coffee, the new location in Friendship/Chevy Chase is the place to go; the service is night and day, the store is clean, and the drinks actually resemble what you order. read more

I don't really like or drink coffee like that. I mean if there isn't a Starbucks around go to Peet's. If there isn't a Peet's around go to Starbucks. This was the Peet's right down the street from the white house. There was no line so that was a huge plus. read more

I love Peet's! Even though it is a chain, it has solid drinks and food. This location is great - lots of space and the proximity to the White House, Renwick Gallery, and other sights in the area make it super convenient (yet every time I've come, it has never been really crowded). I love the Havana cappuccino - sweetened with some warm cinnamon, it's great hot or iced. Staff is incredibly friendly and service is quick. read more

Good coffee, cheap too, and nice place to work. Busy but it had indoor and outdoor seating. I sat at th bar facing the windows and it was perfect. A air was a bit chilly so bring a sweater, but otherwise no complaints. Also they had WiFi and almond milk... read more
