The hot vanilla latte and iced matcha latte with vanilla are my favorites! The cold brew, cappuccino, and flat white are also delicious. The coffee roasted in house here is so smooth and flavorful. The G.O.A.T Bagel with tomato, goat cheese, avocado, and Old Bay seasoning is delicious, as are the açaí bowls! The open area is a great place to work if you like a bustling environment that smells like roasting coffee! There is often limited seating available as it is a popular place for people to sit, chat, and work. For parking longer than 15 minutes, there is a paid lot just up Gallatin street next to the post office. I love the garage door entrance when the weather is nice. Feels like a nice, welcoming, community space. read more

Vigilante continues to roast and brew very good coffee. There's a richness in their product that keeps me coming back for more. Whatever Chris Vigilante and his team are doing: keep going, please! The loyalty program is welcome and helps regulars. I've come to enjoy the various baked goods that are for sale. This wasn't always the case. There's been a concerted effort to offer better options. Last visit, I got a pastry knot sprinkled with pistachio nuts that was scrumptious and a yummy almond croissant. read more

In all honesty, I only went in with family to purchase some coffee beans. I'm not familiar with sitting down and enjoying coffee at the location. It seemed to be a pretty chill with folks on the computers or enjoying conversation. The music in the background, not too loud and anyone seems friendly. They were folks outside and enjoying the beautiful outdoor weather and having conversation so maybe next time. What we did was purchase several bags of coffee beans. They were very flavorful, great aroma throughout the room. I also bought a banana pecan slice and forgot to take a pic. Hopefully, before I leave town, I'll be able to come back and sit and soak up the atmosphere. read more

I was in the mood to try a new coffee spot after dropping the kiddos off and that's I how landed here. This is for serious coffee lovers in my opinion, none of that fuffy fuffy stuff. The atmosphere seemed pretty chill. A lot of people seem to be working their laptops there maybe a lot of people who live in the neighborhood just kind of hanging out there in the morning type of vibe but chilling nonetheless. One thing that stuck out to me that I thought was pretty cool was that it looked like they were literally making their own coffee right there on the spot. The menu was pretty basic because like I said it's for serious coffee lovers so not too much stuff to actually cover up the coffee itself and then I believe they had a small food menu, but I didn't have any of that. So I believe I got maybe like some sort of vanilla latte and let me tell you I was jacked up for the rest of the day. This coffee was very potent. My drink was just ok, not spectacular. But it's cool not a total waste or anything. If I'm in the area again, I would go there to vibe out and try a different drink. read more

I wanted a quick spot to relax on a day off from work and found vigilante. It's a cool spot with cool people working there, I can see why the place is popular for college students and wfh enthusiasts. I had a small classic açaí bowl with no blueberries and an iced matcha. When they say small, they mean it but it's honestly just enough. The açaí was honestly a highlight for me and I'd easily come back for it. read more

I've been to Vigilante Coffee many times at both the Hyattsville and College Park locations. During warmer months it's usually packed on weekends, so the slower pace in colder weather felt expected. I ordered online and grabbed the 16 oz salted maple latte. Smooth, balanced, and not overly sweet. Their mocha is also really good and always consistent. It's one of those spots where you'll see people holding meetings, studying, or casually linking up with neighbors from outside their own area. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming. They offer plenty of drink and food options, and the croissants I've tried have always been fresh. I also love being able to see the coffee machines in action. The staff is consistently friendly and smiling, which makes you want to keep coming back. Definitely worth a visit if you're near either location. read more

I'm the Queen of some place new, and this first time visit to a neighborhood coffee shop did not disappoint. I got a peppermint matcha and my mom went for the eggnog latte. We demolished both beverages, dunking our peppermint mocha biscotti's merrily along the way. This place is cute and has the perfect vibe. Working during the holidays can be challenging so I'll extend grace to the waitstaff who did their jobs efficiently and kindly (though I could sense their general fatigue). All and all, I will definitely be returning! read more

Consistently good coffee, we go for the açaí bowls, which are are always amazing. Service is friendly and the ambiance is a good coffee house vibe.

Went because I bought the Maryland cafe passport. The recommended drink was hot vanilla latte. My husband got a mocha. I was a little upset that they only offered whole milk and then nut milks. I was forced to get the vanilla latte as it comes. I usually instantly take off at least 1 star just on that fact. However, once I took a sip of my drink, it was like an out of body experience it was so good. My husband was blown away and instantly noticed it was REAL ingredients. Real chocolate in the mocha and vanilla bean in the vanilla latte. No syrups. No wonder their menu is a little basic. It doesn't need anything extra to stand out. I consider myself a coffee connoisseur. I don't rate many coffee places over the moon. If I could give this place more than 5 stars, I would. read more

This coffee shop in Hyattsville may be the only reason why I'd even visit there in the first place. This spacious coffee shop has an indoor and outdoor section where there's a lot of space for anyone. Whether it be a group or just you, there's always somewhere to sit and I appreciate that. Like most coffee shops, Vigilante Coffee serves hot drinks like coffee, tea, hot chocolate and cold drinks like cold brew coffee, iced lattes, and lemonade. There's also the option for pastries if you are into that, along side with fruit bowls and bagels if you need food too. I got a regular latte for my visit and a almond croissant which seems to be my go to pairing when I go to a cafe. You place an order and they call by your order number for you to pick up at the counter. I was impressed at the latte art, it is pretty when you receive your cup of coffee. The almond crossaint was also really good too! If there was a closer location I'd no doubt say this is one of the best coffee shops in NoVA but for now, it's one of my favorites in MD! read more

Very cute coffee shop in Hyattsville! It's spacious with lots of indoor and outdoor seating. People were at tables working on their laptops, so it's a nice space to work remotely. They offer coffee, tea, and hot chocolate, as well as bagels, pastries, and acai bowls. I got the almond croissant, which was great, and the fruit bowl with yogurt and granola, which I also enjoyed. The customer service was wonderful! read more

Best coffee shop on planet earth. Great vibes, great coffee, dog friendly, service is top tier. What more could you ask?

Fabulous food selection (especially in pastries section), espresso, service and ambiance! Enjoyed my time, people watching and reading a book there... this spot has cool artsy fartsy decors around the place to give some artsy and rustic feeling. It reminded me of Portland, Oregon. It has more than plenty of seatings with tables around indoor and outdoor. Take your pick anywhere! Ordered hot vanilla latte - it was delicious, and strong espresso flavor blended with foamy milk and vanilla flavor. Great latte around this place! Honey pistachio kouign - delicious pistachio and honey pastry.... Basically some pistachio paste inside the flaky pastry then topped with honey and crushed pistachios. Impressed with the sweet pastry! Ham and cheddar croissant - can't go even wrong with it! Amazing ham, surrounded with melted cheddar then crunchy and flaky pastry hugging these. Overall it's very satisfying for a savory pastry! I highly recommend it to be warmed up to enjoy it even more! read more

Non-coffee drinkers... don't let cafes like this discourage you. If you like somewhere to work and want some appetizing looking pastries, look no further! This cafe has a beautiful mural on the side of the building... it's perfect for pictures if cars aren't parked on the side of it. There's plenty of tables both inside and outside. It was just nice enough to be able to sit outdoors, even though it was all in the shade. The person I was meeting was inside, though. I decided to order some hibiscus tea, which was quite refreshing, and was ready almost immediately in a lovely cup. Delicious pastries, including kouign amann, were on display. I was tempted, but I decided not to. But I'm seeing amann at more and more cafes and bakeries now -- is it a new trend or have I just not been paying attention? Parking can be a bit of a challenge, but that doesn't take away from the epicness of this cafe. And it's bigger than the College Park location. Swing by if you ever want to get away from your desk! read more

We came in from out of town and HAD to stop by when we saw the name (Swifties, IYKYK). We weren't disappointed! Their coffee is fantastic and so are their pastries! You can tell everything is made in house and you can taste the difference. The whole place has the best vibe and they have a lot of plants everywhere, which makes it feel very homey! Everyone was friendly and answered any questions that we had! If you're in the area, you HAVE to go sample their coffee! read more

This shop was unfamiliar to me as a former Hyattsville resident, I had not heard of this shop, which lies in an odd set of intersections involving a lot of one-way streets. But other people have heard of it, and I was glad I ordered in advance even on a Monday as it was crowded. My order was ready pretty much exactly when promised. Their chai latte has a strong spice blend; there's definitely some nutmeg in there but I couldn't pick all the flavors. Doing it with oat milk cost extra, but only 0.25$ (so many places charge a dollar or more). I ordered half of the bagel form of avocado toast, which was good, maybe not the GOAT as was claimed, but a worthy compliment to the well-browned croissant I paired it with. The brick-walled atmosphere made it look like a nice place to sit in, but for what I needed-a quick stop on the way to a destination-this place produced exactly what I wished of it. read more

First time trying a new coffee spot that's not Starbucks or dunkin. Wow I was amazed. Not only does this place have a unique environment that's shows off their coffee beans being grinder fresh by this huge machine. But they have nice comfy seating outside and inside! The decor is very chill and the vibes are so nice. Cashiers and baristas were fast and friendly with their service. Providing excellent service with a smile and ensuring that everything was accurate. Now on to my favorite part. The coffee. I got a flat white w/oat milk and my partner got maple spice latte. Along with the "barista style" bagel which is your choice of bagel, Nutella and banana topping. Everything was delicious, full of flavor and just divine. I enjoyed everything and will definitely be coming back again. read more

Met a friend on a Sunday morning. There is a parking lot that is 50 cents per hour , like 1 min walk away. Parking on the lot was free on Sundays. There really isn't any parking infront of here, but looked like some ppl just randomly decided to park here. This location appears to be "down an alley". If you go past the Post office, you missed the "alley" Arrived @ 11AM and there was a nice line of people already waiting to order! There are tables inside to sit by yourselves or with friends. Also, there are menu scans on the tables so you can order from your table and pay thru your phone. I didnt know this until I grabbed a table after ordering in line. Their online menu is extremely descriptive , offering photos of all items and prices! I loved that! The coffee shop was playing music the likes of Lauryn Hill. A chill atmosphere Non gender bathrooms, one of them did have a baby changing table I got the baristas favorite - plain bagel with peanut butter, bananas and a drizzle of honey. It was a mess! lol, like messy. I didn't even eat half of a bagel. I just forked up the bananas Also, had the Mint coffee. It was okay May stop back to work from here on a nice mid day.

Over the last few years Vigilante has become the favorite part of my weekend plans. I love stopping in for a latte and almond croissant. If I'm mixing it up, maybe I'll get an açaí bowl. Their lattes are consistently delicious and beautifully decorated. The service I've received has been prompt and pleasant. The space fills up on Saturdays and Sundays with run clubs, bike clubs and lots of families. There's a variety of seating both inside and outside including a massive live edge wood table that looks over the coffee roasting area. We've always found seating when needed, though occasionally take our winnings to go. read more

I've had vigilante coffee numerous times at outlets throughout the DMV, and was glad to have dropped by their flagship shop in Hyattsville! It was late morning on a Saturday and the place was buzzing. Despite that, I still managed to find a table for two. There were many bites available, including Bakeshop goodies, which I looooveee! We decided to just get a vanilla latte and flat white and they were both enjoyable. With my limited coffee knowledge, I'll say I typically prefer a medium roast flavor that isn't acidic. This espresso drink matched my palette well and it was so delish! I enjoyed it so much, I had to ask which beans they used: it's the Tin Lizzie and I grabbed a bag I don't have a car and don't find myself in Hyattsville often, but I'd definitely return read more

So lately I've been on a hunt to find spots other than Starbucks (I use to be a huge fan but I woke up and got educated on what they stand for etc--- long story short I'm good) Anywho about Vigilant the coffee shop. It was interesting I saw a few things that sparked my interest online (cold brew frenzy) which they no longer serve it was disappointing. However I didn't let that stump on my parade I was determined to find something I liked. I got the iced housemade vanilla latte and omgoodnesssssss it was good (insert Keith lee eye roll) I also got the açaí bowl with no granola (even though I didn't want granola they were also out. So I am guessing this is a popular item on their menu. However for me personal I have tasted and made better! Can't go wrong with a smoothie and fresh fruit though! Service was great quick for the time (I came mid-day) that I came there. I don't expect it to be too busy it is off campus to UMD (University of Maryland College Park), but it's definitely in the cut too. It's not visible on the street and parking is very limited in this area. I saw a cute dog without a leash! Do I think that's sanitary or safe for customers depends. As long as they stay with their owner and is on a leash I have no complaints. However, people will do what they want to do!!! ENFORCE PET BOUNDARIES IN THE FUTURE. I like dogs but because of restrictions in some places I choose to keep mine at home where he is safe Any who the ambiance of the place was very casual and coffee shop like. They have mugs, travel cups, shirts, dessert displays and seating. Everything a college student, in town resident, or visiting tourist would enjoy. I know a lot of reviews were talking about customer service but these employees were nice to me, quick, efficient, and on there stuff! 4/5 stars because Positive: - fancy coffee roaster the smells and aroma in the air from that is lovely. - coffee was probably the best shop coffee I've had EVER!!! I drink a lot of coffee might I add. - customer service -Quick service Negative: - no pet restrictions or even a sign welcoming them - açaí bowl was not my favorite - parking (however what coffee shop do you know that has great parking!!! I'll wait.... NONE exactly, so you get my point!) That's all folks! I will be returning! read more

I wish I lived a little closer but it's a treat when I do fulfill my need for the G.O.A.T. bagel and chai tea latte. I absolutely love the G.O.A.T. bagel. It is absolutely delicious. I would not have thought of mixing goat cheese, avocado mash, cherry tomatoes, and some old bay sprinkle. Sometimes I add on a little balsamic drizzle as well. They also have the cherry bagel which has arugula, balsamic glaze, avocado mash, and cherry tomatoes which is pretty delicious as well. As far as my drink of choice, I have not found another place that can make my chai tea latte taste like Vigilante's. I prefer oat milk with mine but it pairs well with the "cardamom, ginger, cracked pepper, and notes of cinnamon and cayenne". I prefer to order in advance since the bagels do sell out but I've ordered at the register a few times and the service is always great. The staff is pretty friendly and helpful. I love the look and feel of the space but if you'd like to have a seat here, get here early. It is a great space to get some work, planning, or reading done. read more
