If you are willing to wait in line this is a solid spot for breakfast! I went on a Saturday and waited outside probably 15-20 minutes. The line moves decently fast. There are about 3 tables inside and 3 outside so better to take food and coffee to go imo. I was able to snag a table outside for a bit to enjoy my pastries! I had a spinach feta croissant and almond cake. The croissant was super flaky and buttery and the cake was moist and flavorful - really liked both! Would return here to try more pastries but likely on a weekday.
Good location for quick breakfast runs, they got coffee and morning drinks and lots of pastries, even quiche! I got myself some bread and it's very tasty. Parking is a bit tricky and limit so I recommend walking here. In a very vibrant area as well so you should stop by if you're around
Love love love the pastries at this place and everything is so well priced. You do have to wait in a line if you go during the weekend, but it's still worth it.
This is the spot for amazing coffee and pastries! Don't be deterred by a long line outside, they're staffed to the gills and move quickly. I was behind 10+ people outside, and couldn't even see inside the shop when I got in line. Less than 10 minutes later, I was outside with two hot beverages and two pastries baked right in their shop. Totally worth it and far better than quickly scooping up substandard facsimiles at a major chain nearby. So, enjoy, sit outside, live the European-style of casually sipping and letting time slip past with the leisure of someone who isn't in a terrible rush and has no interest in conversation with amazing coffee.
Came here during Porch Fest craving a good pastry and desperately needing a pick me up after brunch. The inside is very small with just 3 tables lining the wall for 2ppl each. We were serviced very fast considering the heavy foot traffic so that was a plus. I ordered a chocolate croissant and a caramel flavored coffee. The coffee was easily one of the best cups I've ever had but the croissant left much to be desired. The coffee was rich without being overly bitter or sweet but the croissant lacked the amount of chocolate I feel it needed to be considered a chocolate croissant. I've also been spoiled by ninos bakery so there's that :(. I'd definitely come back for a coffee if I was in the area.
Ok SO Ive been here twice and it is DAMN GOOD! There is something to be said about a buttery and flakey croissant and they bake theirs well. So far Ive had the toffee bread pudding, yuca pao de quiejo, everything, dulce de leche pastries as well as the almond croissant- SO good. I also love that they have fresh OJ and really good coffee with homemade syrups available. This spot is small but filled with love. Looking forward to the weather breaking so I can enjoy sitting outside stuffing my face and people watching.
Drinks were pretty good, but not amazing. However, for the price point I can see why there are lines out the door. Downside is there is very little seating so this is definitely more a grab and go coffee shop.
i went in the afternoon, so i did not get to try the pastries. my latte wasn't bad by any means, it just wasn't anything special. i don't have much to say because nothing really stood out. service wasn't bad, just took a second because there was only one person working and there was a few more people in line. very small in there. i would go back to try the pastries
Across the street from another popular coffee shop, Soleluna still had a line that went outdoors which definitely showcases as a strong coffee shop contender. There isn't much seating at all inside but there are a couple tables outside on a small patio of the restaurant. Everything here is made from scratch daily and looks extremely appetizing with a wide selection of pastries and huge stuffed croissants. Despite there being a line the service was really fast, I was able to try one of their croissants as well as their cookie butter latte which was really rich and you could taste the cookie butter from the beginning to the end holding its flavor the entire drink which is unusual for an iced drink as they tend to lose flavor.
Sweet little coffee shop down the street from Tryst & Lost City Books, local Ecuadorian shop with really good coffee and on the lower priced end compared to other shops in the area. Do yourself a favor and get a few Honey Butter Wheat Medialuna Croissants, you'll thank me later!
After checking its high ratings online, we decided to give it a try while we were in the neighborhood. We loved their coffee--well crafted, full-flavored, and delicious--and the iced matcha latte was tasty. Their pastries, like mini blueberry Danish, chocolate croissant, frosted cinnamon rolls, and double chocolate and Nutella croissant, all paired well with their coffee. The only thing we didn't like about the cafe was that it didn't have enough tables and seats, as it is pretty small with only two small tables inside. Although there is a patio in front, tables are limited.
This is a sweet little pastry and coffee shop right near the main intersection in ADMO. Blink and you could miss it, but don't miss it because the pastries are on point and they have all kinds of lovely coffee drinks as well. I would also highlight that the monkey bread is a very well priced pastry for this area and they have different flavors, including savory. Some of the savory croissants can also be a full lunch or breakfast and they also have personal quiches. There are only two small tables inside so plan accordingly during winter. There are outside tables as well.
I stopped by Soleluna this past weekend for a coffee and found it very charming. It's a small coffeeshop and bakery with some seating outdoors and just a high top and 2-4 chairs inside. I stopped by around 8:00 a.m. on a Sunday morning and walked right in. I ordered an iced americano and drooled over their favorite beautiful pastries (I don't even have much of a sweet tooth, but their pastries looked gorgeous). The service was fast and friendly, and my iced americano was great. I enjoyed my coffee on a walk to Meridian Hill Park. Around 11:00 a.m., I was in front of Soleluna again (just passing by) and noticed there was now quite a line. I imagine it moves quite fast (there's really nowhere to go inside which might make the line look a little longer than it really is). So, Soleluna is great, and it's no secret! If you stop by earlier in the morning, it won't take long at all to get a coffee and a treat, but you should expect a bit of a wait if you go later in the morning on a weekend. I'd happily return.
Cute little cafe; I really like the forest/sage green and off white interior. And the baristas were friendly and very efficient (whenever their espresso machine doesn't go out of commission). Their Dulce De Leche Medialuna and Guava Croissant were delicious. They were small in size topped with powdered sugar. But I wish there were more fillings in the Dulce as it was only a table spoon worth. Lastly, their Iced Matcha Latte was OK. Even though they advertised their matcha as ceremonial grade, you can see that the bottom of their matcha container is grey, meaning that it lost its aroma and taste... At least their matcha latte is affordable at a price of $6. read more

What a charming place, it's a small cafe and pastry, people are line up, very casual and chill, service efficient and friendly. This is more like a "grab and go" concept. Their menu is great. I got an iced chai latte that was perfect and also a croissant; but everything looked delicious. read more

I've been going to this little cafe at least once a month for about a year now, and I just want to sing its praises a little bit more! The cinnamon rolls they sometimes have on the weekend have to be my favorite in DC (so soft, so gooey, never skimping on the cinnamon) and the quiches are spot-on. Every time I start my day with a pastry from Soleluna it just brightens my morning, and it's so great to see staff making everything from scratch and pulling warm pastries from the oven when you get there early in the day. Glad to have a cozy little cafe like this in the neighborhood and that their prices have stayed reasonable. If there's something specific you want, I recommend coming early because they do sell out. read more
I've only had coffee takeaway before and I've been meaning to try out the baked goods here. My friends kindly got takeaways for me and they taste absolutely fantastic even the next day after leaving them on the counter, in an air tight container. Would love to come visit the cafe again some time. read more

Very small cafe. Staff was very fast and nice. This pistachio is something to rave about. 10/10 read more
Needed a pick me up in the afternoon after a lot of walking. Found this cute little bakery we stopped in. We ordered their Chai lattes and a croissant. The Chai lattes were good. I definitely felt the milk overpowered the chai flavor but it was still refreshing to have. The croissant was thick and not as flaky as I would have liked but still a good one. A nice and quick little cafe to check out! read more
Super small grab & go coffee shop. Pros: Price point & the croissants are amazing! Cons: Coffee isn't great. Also super let down by the Freddy Cappuccino. Expected something similar to the one made in NY at Cafe Leon Dore but it didn't come close! read more
This is a wonderful bakery with lots of great pastries and delicious coffee. My wife and I came here back in May while in town for a conference and we tried several croissants, including passionfruit, pistachio, and guava, all of which were very flavorful and buttery (the guava was the best). I got a cappuccino and my wife got a Freddo espresso, both of which were also delicious and paired excellently with the pastries. It's a great place to grab some coffee and snacks and we'd definitely visit again! read more

The coffee isn't exceptional and I think they were having an off day when I went because they had messed up a couple of drink orders while I waited in line. I was there on a Sunday afternoon and there was a small line out the door, but they moved fast. I ordered an iced latte with chai syrup and I couldn't taste the chai, so either their syrups are weak or they forgot it. Despite this, I would come back over and over again for their pastries. I got a ham and cheese croissant, shaped like a traditional pain au chocolate. The layers are flaky and the crust of it was so crispy. You can also ask for them to be warmed up! read more
My favorite place for viennoiserie sadly closed its doors and so I began the pursuit of finding an acceptable replacement. Solely a focused on traditional French items with a twist.i indulged in their pistachio and almond croissant. Their pistachio croissant surprised me by not having a filling and only have pistachios on the top (2/5). The almond croissant also wasn't the standard as instead of a frangipane filling it was filled with a sweet almond extract cream (1/5). I doubt that I'll be back for more than a coffee (4/5). read more
Incredible little café with an outstanding pastry selection and some of the best coffee available in DC! This hole-in-the-wall spot is located in the heart of Adams Morgan, where space is limited but the vibrancy and vibes are not. Soleluna adds to the cool, artsy energy of the neighborhood with their warm, friendly staff, unique assortment of pastries, and awesome Ecuadorian coffee. The coffee has genuinely never missed; I love the beans themselves, so I normally opt for an americano or a latte, but they also have a ton of homemade syrups that are just absolutely incredible. Whether you're a bitter or a sweet coffee drinker, Soleluna has you covered! They also have a fun selection of pastries, including fruity, tropical options like their guava or passionfruit croissant, or their mango danish. If something savory is a bit more your speed, they also have a classic ham and cheese croissant, everything bagel danish, and outstanding leek quiche. I usually go for something classic, like their standard croissant or pain au chocolat, but everything -- from the basics to the specialty -- are perfectly executed, phenomenally flaky, and 100% delicious. The shop is quite small, so, while there's a couple of small tables available outside, you're most likely going to have to take your order to go. There's barely enough space for the line to wrap around inside of the café, but I promise both the wait and the hassle of finding a new spot to enjoy your treats is completely worth it. read more
