This is my favorite coffee shop in Alexandria! I love this shop so much that I took my husband here…read moreas his first stop in Alexandria prior to meeting my parents when he was my boyfriend! Of course I chose somewhere that I felt was the best Alexandria has to offer in an atmosphere where he could enjoy a beverage and have plenty of space and privacy to relax and unwind (he is the first boyfriend I ever took to meet my parents so the pressure was real!) This shop is located in downtown Alexandria with super quirky decor, lots of seating, and several book and game options to pass the time! I also loved the hidden notes in the bookcase that gave book recommendations. I have tried several of their drinks here throughout the years. Most recently I tried one of their seasonal drinks, the reindeer chow but asked them to hold the chow to make it a cookie butter latte with oat milk (wasn't really in the mood for a chocolatey cereal chow meal in my drink but loved the concept)! I also ordered the avocado toast. The latte was perfectly balanced, yet rich and delicious! It was also served at the perfect drinkable temp. The avocado toast was THICK and the avocado and egg topping seemed fresh. It was very filling and a nice dose of healthy protein after all the holiday indulgence! I will ALWAYS come back to this coffee shop when I'm in town especially since it holds a precious memory for me. Also, Check out the background of this shop on their website, such a beautiful dedication!

Located inside a supermarket called Albertson's , this Starbucks is right infront and you do not have to walk far to find it, right inside the door! Brigitte (I think that's her name) was excellent. Super friendly and provided fast and super service. Not sure why but prices were actually lower here than a "normal' starbucks store. Very welcoming. They don't have EVERY starbucks drink but they do have the popular, essential ones. I get the Strawberry acai refresher and Brigitte made it perfectly. My dad got his usual standard medium roast coffee with a cheese danish and all of our items came out super quickly thanks to Brigitte. They have a bathroom which is the supermarkets but it's a very short walk down a few asiles and very clean. Lots of parking outside too! Centrally located near a mall and other shops.

In the cafe there is soft music playing in the background. The menu is written on a large chalkboard. I ordered a latte hot with caramel and mocha syrup. Initially, I ordered the latte with Oat milk.

I appreciated that small gesture. The drink was brought to me in a paper cup with lid. I stayed to enjoy the vibes of the Café. The decor also was incorporated to the theme of a coffee shop. Milk options: Half and half 2% Oat Almond
