Cuban Cafe Colada Shop Will Open Inside the First Bloomie’s Department Store, in Virginia | Eater DC

"Inside that Bloomie’s location will be a 900-square-foot Colada Shop with its own separate entrance and patio that plans to sell Cuban coffee drinks, croquetas, pressed sandwiches, and rum cocktails such as mojitos and pina coladas (the restaurant has submitted an application for an alcohol license and aims to open by late August). Colada Shop will also get a mobile bar cart with a running sink to move around the store for promotions or private events on the patio; co-owner Daniella Senior says she sees several “synergies” with Bloomie’s target customer and notes the brand’s typical customer is around 25 to 40, well-traveled, and treats eating as a way to explore other cultures. The newest location marks a return to Virginia for Colada Shop: the original opened in Sterling, Virginia, in 2016 and closed last summer, the company developed an urban following from a tiny spot near the corner of 14th Street and T Street NW, and it expanded during the pandemic with roomier cafes and expanded menus from group chef Mario Monte on the Southwest Waterfront and in Potomac, Maryland." - Gabe Hiatt

Stopped by the Colada Shop in Mosaic District on a recent Saturday afternoon to grab cold drink and was pleasantly surprised at the setup. This location is next to, but almost an extension to another store with an entrance between the two places. There’s a vibrant, wall-sized mural on the wall and it’s like you walked into a tropical bar/cafe/coffee shop with the vibes, food, music, decor & art. There’s counter seating, a small seating area and small bar seating packed into this location. There’s also some patio seating, weather permitting. While it can feel a little cramped, I’d go back for a their hora feliz aka happy hour everyday from 4p-8p, or to try their seasonal special bites and sips. There’s even Colada Shop merch including coffee for the coffee lovers.

Both female baristas who worked there were very rude. They made my coffee very bitter, and when I told them it was too bitter and asked if I could have some sweetener syrup, they told me I had to pay for it. I said okay and paid for it, but the coffee was still very bitter. When I asked for more sweetener because it wasn’t enough, she said I would need to pay again. Zero customer service - very rude. This was at 9 am, and I’m never coming back. Both baristas had very bad attitudes I’m local and I’ve been there a in a different occasion and only those two females have the worst attitude to see customer service literally ruined my day do better!

(Breakfast review only) We popped in here because Maman was packed and dang we were pleasantly surprised how amazing the ham, egg and cheese breakfast sandwich was as well as the beef empenada (super buttery flakey crust). They were a bit understaffed so it took a minute, but overall this place is a solid option for a quick grab n go coffee + breakfast option that’s not just sweet pastries.

We had a Colada Shop location closer to our home that we frequented until its closure a few years ago. We miss having it around but the next best thing is to travel to Mosaic for our Cuban cuisine fix. You can't really go wrong with anything on their menu, but I highly recommend the Cuban sandwich. The bread was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, and the pork was tender and flavorful. It's a filling meal in itself, but order it with the plantain chips and you're in for a real treat. We also love their guava and cheese pastelitos and coffee drinks. Service is top notch, even though it's quick service, our server brought our order out to our table despite the lunch rush. Its location is adjacent to Bloomie's with direct access to the store inside. Parking is at the multiple parking garages in the area, so expect a short 5 minute walk. Can't wait to visit again!

I did not eat. I only got a latte and it was delicious. The cafe is really pretty and comfortable and this Colada Shop is located in a very cute neighborhood and shopping area. Easy parking everywhere : outside as well as indoor public parking. Around you will find stores like Bloomingdale’s, Target for big, Barnes for big stores and many other small boutiques and restaurants. It is a vibrant area.

The place is nice and cozy, the coffees were good. But, the pastries especially tiramisu cheesecake, lemon cheesecake and tres leches were extremely sweet! The way that we almost throw most of them away after spending over $40.

It was my first time visiting this place. I ordered a latte with oat milk, and my friend had a cappuccino. Unfortunately, the latte didn’t taste great—the oat milk they used wasn’t creamy or flavorful. Additionally, even though there were no other customers in line, the service was slow for just two coffees. I don’t think I’ll be coming back.
