    Honey Cake, Rose Matcha Latte
    Andrea A.

    We wanted a sweet treat after lunch and saw that Yerevan was a quick walk away! We got a slice of honey cake which was soft and not too sweet. Also got the rose matcha latte, which tbh was pretty disappointing. The rose flavor was strong, but the matcha essence was not- way too milky (it was aesthetic though with the petals haha). The coffee shop itself is really cozy- would be a nice spot to work at. Service was fast and friendly. 7.5/10 would recommend for dessert, but I'll have to try another drink next time.

    Nice Armenian cafe in the heart of Adams Morgan. I always love to go to different foreign food spots and coffee shops whenever I can and this is my first time going to an Armenian cafe. I had the Armenian coffee, soujuk, and brown sugar latte with clove. Everything was great! I just wish the soujuk was a little bigger. The decor is cute as well, plus there is a cute tiny shop inside that sells a few imported beers and wines and foods and souvenirs. Speaking of decor, I think the bathroom could use a little more! All in all, I found this to be a great little spot and would definitely consider coming back:)

    A friend and I stopped by Yerevan on Sunday morning, and I'm so glad we did. I adored it. Yerevan is an Armenian cafe but calling it just a cafe seems limiting! Yes, it opens daily at 10 am for breakfast, pastries, and coffee. They're also open for lunch and dinner (they close at 8/9 pm depending on the day). And they offer happy hour from 3-6 pm Monday through Friday. And they host events celebrating Armenian culture: monthly free wine tastings, book signings, art exhibitions, and other events. It's a special place, and Adams Morgan residents are so lucky to have it. But back to our experience yesterday. We ordered a couple of coffees (both were great) and shared a couple of dishes from their menu. Lahmajun is a dough rolled thin and topped with minced beef. Yerevan's was served with a lemon wedge and Armenian pepper paste, and together with the lemon and pepper paste, it was absolutely delicious. The dough was so thin and the meat topping well seasoned. It's a dish I love, and Yerevan's version was absolutely no exception. We also ordered a Zhingyalov Hats (a flatbread stuffed with herbs and greens and served with a side of labneh). I've only had Zhingyalov Hats one other time and loved it then. I loved Yerevan's, too. It's so simple and yet so incredibly flavorful. A great vegetarian dish. Their menu offers so much more than these dishes (although I heartily recommend these two classics): soujuk pie, dolma, a basturma wrap, lentil kufte, and several sweet pastries. Based on the Lahmajun and the Zhingyalov Hats, I would eat anything else on their menu (and plan to come back and try to). In addition to the great food and very good coffees, the service was outstanding, too - very friendly and helpful. The cafe is comfortable and casual, but very charming - with lots of Armenian touches (and art) throughout. Yerevan is exactly the kind of place I love. Great food - including dishes that aren't very easy to find in the area - clearly made with love. Excellent service. Yerevan is wonderful - a great place to enjoy a meal or a snack or a coffee or a glass of Armenian wine. A great place to enjoy with family or friends. A great place to enjoy solo - come with a book or your work. I just adored it. I look forward to returning.

    Vibe: very cute shop with seating inside Service: very friendly! A bit slow to order, but quick to bring food out. Value: moderate for the area Honey cake: deliciously dense. Loved the graham crackers on top

    Zhingyalov Hats with pepper paste instead of Labneh (vegan)
    Evie S.

    I was excited to try Armenian food here at Yerevan. I got a cup of the red lentil and apricot soup which had some sweetness from the apricots, some tartness from tomatoes and was delicious. I also got Zhingyalov Hats, a flatbread stuffed with finely diced herbs and greens. It's a traditional dish of Armenian cuisine from Artsakh. I have made it at home before so it was fun to try it at a restaurant. The dough reminded me of Yemenite malawach I grew up eating or an Indian paratha. I ordered it vegan so it came with hamim, a pepper paste spread (instead of labneh). I was actually interested in trying the pepper paste spread too so it was fun it came with it but I think the dish would go better with Labneh. I really enjoyed the decorations here, especially a wall decorated with broken pieces of pottery. Ordering was at the counter here and a few tables had people working on their computers. My general rating system: 1 star: I would stay away 2 stars: Has some good things about it but I generally don't recommend. 3 stars: Pretty good. I wouldn't go out of my way to go back but a decent place 4 stars: Great place. I would go back. 5 stars: I highly recommend stopping whatever you are doing and making plans to try it out! An Evie favorite!

    Washington D.C. is quickly becoming one of my favorite places to visit and I was lucky enough to visit in mid-September. The weather was perfect, but I needed my coffee fix in order to properly go sightseeing. My coffee shop stop in D.C. is Yerevan. Their Armenian coffee is bold, but doesn't have the bitter aftertaste that usually keeps me away from Armenian style espressos. The other highlight for me was their take on the trendy Dubai chocolate. Their Dubai chocolate latte stood out to me because of they managed to achieve a sweetness level that doesn't drown out every other flavor. You can still taste the coffee and the sweetness complements the drink instead of overpowering it. Overall it's a great little cafe that is worth trying out if you are in the area.

    Iced Matcha
    Kaya A.

    This feels unfortunate to write because I've wanted to try this place for the longest time! This matcha just tasted like milk. I ordered it with rose syrup and soy mylk but all I tasted was the soy milk. I should have looked it up then I wouldn't have ordered the matcha. I do want to emphasize that I still want to come back to give their coffee and food a shot. It's a very cute place and the barista was so welcoming! I also want to note we came during a weekend with so many events going on in AdMo and I only saw one barista, they were so efficient and sweet. So I'll be back to try more but never for the matcha!

    Brown Sugar Clove Latte

    The Brown Sugar Clove Latte is a great drink to start your day. I would come here again with a friend or business colleague.

    Latte, rose matcha latte

    One of my favorite coffee shops in DC!! Tucked away in the outskirts of Adams Morgan, Yerevan may not look like much from the outside, but this hidden gem is an absolute delight. The staff is all super friendly, and they have the most incredible selection of pastries, coffee, and tea. I have probably tried half of their pastry case, and I continue to be impressed with each and every item. I absolutely adore their homestyle baklava -- the phyllo dough is perfectly crispy and soaks up the honey and nut mixture beautifully, and the dessert is simultaneously decadent and not overly sweet. The honey nugget is a great little sweet bite, and is the perfect gluten-free treat or small pick-me-up, and the honey cake is absolutely incredible. It's a smidge overly sweet (as the main flavor is, as the name implies, honey), but it still manages to be amazing. Beyond their lovely sweets, their drinks are incredible. They have one of my favorite matcha lattes in DC, as well as a matcha rose latte that is perfect when you're looking for a hint of spring. Their coffee is also wonderful, with a great nutty aroma and deep, robust flavor. It's also served in the cutest little Armenian mugs, which really adds to the overall experience. The space is shockingly large, with 4-5 larger tables and a couple 2-person tables, all beautifully arranged with cute little flower pots and throw pillows. They even have a small stack of books and board games if you get bored of yapping and need something else to keep you entertained. It's the perfect, cozy little spot to either read, work, or catch up with friends.

    This is a delightful cafe tucked in the Adams Morgan area. I love that it champions the regional specificity of being an Armenian cafe. It allows for its pastry case and drinks to have a unique profile that evokes flavors we wouldn't normally get out of a standard cafe. It's so dazzling to see the variety of sweets they have, and there are other things to purchase sprinkled throughout the cafe to peruse. There was ample seating, but the cafe itself is very intimate. Some signage at the cafe points that they host some community tasting workshops and that sounds like so much fun! My barista was quick to make my drink and very friendly and explanatory of the menu. I would stick to the drinks that are unique to the restaurant and coffees because it's just what they are best at making. Had a matcha latte order, and the color was closer to that of milk then matcha, but I think I ordered the wrong item to make a fair assessment. Deserves a revisit on my part, hehe!

    Cute cafe with a wide selection of food and drinks! Check out the fridges that have other beverages, cured meats, dairy products etc. We picked up the Ayran yogurt drink which was a refreshing tangy and salty yogurt drink! The rose latte was good and not too sweet :)

    Eisha K.

    It was my first time going to an Armenian place, and I was pleasantly surprised. The honey cake was to die for it's layered and sweet, but not in an overly intimidating way. I also like the soujuk pie. I would say the lahmajun was too small of a portion for me. Generally, their portion sizes tend to be on the smaller side. They also sell various items in the café, and I think those might be interesting to look at.

It was Friday early afternoon. She immediately greeted me as soon as I walked in and then went over all their options with me. They do open face sandwiches but she said any can be made into a regular sandwich. She gave me recommendations as well. I decided to go with the chicken open face sandwich but as a regular sandwich and the sea salt caramel latte to go. The latte was really good and was not weak. I ate the sandwich when I got home and it was also very good. The chicken and sumac onions were delicious! The place has plenty seating if you want to just work and drink coffee or order full meals with friends. There is also a good size patio in the front. It's definitely a nice addition to the area.

The coffee was for sure a stand out. We each got the espresso with whipped cream. Heads up, for a coffee focused place the cream was definitely out of a can. But the coffee itself was amazing. For food we got a pistachio beignet, and a chocolate and pistachio croissant. The beignet is definitely not a beignet- it was a bit more bread like, though it still tasted good. And the pistachio cream, though delicious, was so runny. The croissant was good but also had the same pistachio cream issue. It dripped out. For food I had the bacon flaming tart, which tasted amazing! One thing to note- the menu says capers, but it's scallions. That was a welcomed error, since I love scallions! We also got drinks, and I enjoyed my pistachio beverage. Overall, I'd say out of the options nearest the zoo, this is one of the best.

The restaurant is super cute, with a fun cafe vibe, and it's an easy walk from the waterfront. We ordered the Colada Trio, which came with empanadas, cauliflower sliders, and yuca fries. Everything was delicious, and it came with three different sauces that were honestly all so good. I could've eaten those sauces with everything. We also ordered the Platanachos (plantain nachos), which were flavorful and such a fun twist on traditional nachos. They accidentally forgot the cauliflower and mushroom topping, but as soon as I mentioned it, they brought it out right away along with extra sauce. Mistakes happen, but what matters is how a place handles them, and they were incredibly accommodating, which I really appreciated. It was pretty busy when we visited, and I noticed who I believe was the manager or owner helping clean tables and checking on guests. I always love seeing that kind of hands-on involvement. Great food, friendly service, and an awesome location if you're exploring the Wharf. I'd definitely recommend stopping by!

As someone who works in the industry and is very familiar with coffee and coffee shops, I was genuinely shocked by how rude and unprofessional the staff was. I ordered a house latte with an extra double shot, which made it a quad shot, and I also paid for extra ice and requested that it be served in a large cup. It wasn't a complicated order. When I saw a drink come up, I politely asked, "Is that mine by any chance?" The barista immediately told me to "hush" and said, "I'm not talking to you." I found that incredibly disrespectful and completely unacceptable. When my drink was finally handed to me, I simply asked if the quad shot had been added since I had paid extra for it. Instead of answering my question, the barista ignored me entirely, and another employee had to respond. The employee, Taleisha Young, who was wearing glasses, was especially rude throughout the interaction. No customer should be spoken to that way, especially when they're simply asking about an order they paid extra to customize. Customer service and professionalism should be a priority, and this experience fell far below that standard. Unfortunately, I will not be returning, and I will be sharing my experience on other review platforms as well. I hope management addresses the behavior of its staff so other customers don't have a similar experience.
