From the outside of the building, you wouldn't know that there's a speakeasy inside, but that's what makes it fun. There's a handful of tables inside and a small shuffleboard too. There's an area outside that I have not been able to check out yet due to it being February when I was there. Kelvin gave me a great story about Uncle Nearest and told it with such enthusiasm too. Kelvin brings this great energy and is one of those people where you can tell that he loves what he does. The whiskey selection in here is phenomenal! So many different ones that I want to try and Kelvin will give you his recommendations based on your preferences. This is a great place for those that want to sip on whiskey or a classic cocktail. Can't wait to go back just so I can have some good laughs with Kelvin and try a few more whiskeys that are on my list!

With a variety of drinks from hot to cold; to food options. I couldn't decide what to get because a lot sounded enticing. I ended up getting a cappuccino so I can get some latte art and a grilled cheese. I got toasted marshmallow flavor for my cappuccino. It had a dainty heart and nicely made flavor wise. It came in a real mug since it was a cappuccino. If you get a cold drink, it comes in a disposable cup. For food I decided to try the jalapeño bacon grilled cheese. It was tasty. The jalapeños were not spicy at all which was what I was looking for. It had the right amount for flavor added to the melted cheese and bacon. Toasted at a level you get a crunch in every bite. I was asked if I'd like a pickle on the side; yes please. That was a nice little ask that I wasn't expecting. Overall, service, food and drink were good. There is free parking in the parking lot. I'll be back to try more specialty drinks.

Unfortunately, I was disappointed with the baked goods. I recalled having a lemon cupcake last year which is one of the items I picked up yesterday. It had the same off flavor that you find in commercial or grocery store bakery cupcakes. The cake itself was fine, but the frosting was not good. I also had a vanilla cake with chocolate frosting and the essentially had the same flavor. If the recipe hasn't changed since last year, maybe I was just hungry last year and didn't note the off flavor because this year's experience was not great for me.

I ordered a BLT sandwhich and included egg and when I say delicious?! It was scrumptious. I had an iced Vietnamese coffee with it which was great.

The line to order went quickly and food was brought to us at our outdoor table. Our party of 2 had no problem getting a seat, but on weekends parties larger than 3 may be better off with take out.

It's a smallish space and indoor seating was really full at 11 AM on a weekday. Because of rain, the outdoor benches were not in use, and I saw closed-up patio-umbrellas too. I ordered from a kiosk or you could order online or in person. I got the bacon egg and cheese croissant and it was made quickly by welcoming staff. It was a regular size croissant with very light cheese and a layer of crispy bacon pieces in a well toasted croissant. The flavor was good. This café also sells a number of beverages, including fresh ground espresso, and various teas And they sell some bakery goods, candies, and quite a variety of dry-packaged teas and coffee. The parking right in front Café Jun can get pretty full, but there's plenty parking in the rest of the shopping center. You can enter the shopping area from eastbound US-40 Baltimore National Pike, or from westbound Frederick Road. It's just east of Centennial Lane/Bethany Lane and about a mile West of US 29. The larger shopping area has a diner 3-strip mall sections, one of which is called Princess Shopping Center, so I'm a little confused which mall-name covers which shops. They have a summer concert planned! That should be fun!

People do seem to respect the 90MIN seating window though so you should be able to find a seat. You order and pay at the counter first and then they give you a table number card. This is how they find you to serve your food. I ordered a regular matcha latte, a bacon, egg and cheese sandwich on croissant bread and their famous croffle. I loved their matcha latte. It's pre-sweetened so no need to add extra vanilla syrup or anything. This does not taste like a traditional matcha, which in my opinion tastes like dirt. This is a sweeter, dessert like matcha. I didn't care for the bacon, egg and cheese sandwich. It was kind of dry and it tasted like something was missing. The croffle was amazing. It has a nutty, pecan like taste to it and it was topped with vanilla gelato and blueberries. I couldn't really taste the maple syrup but it was delicious nonetheless.

The Pistachio Latte looked good so we got one hot, one iced so we could share & try the two variations. We asked for almond milk in the lattes. Fitting: pistachios & almonds together. Both were really good. Can really taste the pistachio flavour after stirring the latte. We'll keep Qaffee House in mind whenever we're in the area. Side note: I found their logo quite clever artistically. It made sense after I looked at the name "Qaffee House" and back to logo. The cup is the Latin letter "q" and the symbol with the two dots is the Arabic equivalent to "q", the Qaf (ق). And this leads to Arabic word for coffee: "qahwa". Nicely done blend of languages.

The busy-ness was a testament to its popularity, yet it was comfy and relaxed because there was a variety of seating areas where one could enjoy their beverage and/or food.
