The 18 Best Coffee Shops Around D.C.

"Slipstream sells single-origin coffees that come in carafes accompanied by informative cards. The original in Logan Circle relocated earlier this month to a larger space in Studio Theatre just a block away. There are also sibling cafes in Navy Yard and downtown. Avocado toasts and light rice bowls here are some of the best in the city. Along with its house blend, coffee drinks and bagged beans come from roasters like Blanchard, Small Planes, and Onyx. Preorder for pickup here." - Tierney Plumb, Emily Venezky

Stopped here for a quick coffee in the morning and got one of their seasonal lattes. The first item I ordered was out of stock which was disappointing but I got the sweetie pie latte. It was pretty good. The staff were friendly and efficient.

Located inside the 1201 building, main entrance on I street. Ordered a hot chai (they make their own concentrate!) and iced oat magic Basil Matcha. Both were so great! The uniqueness of the basil in the matcha was a nice touch :) Top 3 DC coffee shop

Great coffee, love the cappuccino and iced latte. It’s correctly brewed and blended. The smoked salmon toast was also nice and tasty, all that we ordered were splendid. They have space inside, good wifi and some space outside during the warmer weather. We loved this spot.

Nice small location with a few tables inside and more outside as well as in the atrium of the building. I had a good WiFi connection through Xfinity so I may go back to work remotely! I ordered a Tahitian Vanilla Latte in a mug. It didn't seem very large so I'm wondering if you get more by ordering to go or if it's an illusion and just deceptively small looking. I also ordered a Jammy Bacon and Egg Sandwich. Both were so good!!!

To survive as a local business during (and after) the pandemic, you need to innovate. Slated to open before the pandemic, Slipstream's newest and third location needed to pivot with the downtown audience suddenly gone. They slowed down and designed out the small space with the pandemic in mind. They took out a few seats to leave room for safe distancing while customers wait for their lattes. Outdoor seating is being added. Compared to its two other locations, this one is the smallest, but it fits the downtown working crowd. Located inside an office building that sits 1,000 workers, the location is central. When you walk in, you're greeted by a bright mural by Dante Marshall, an artist friend of the owner. Order your coffee drink or a food item (recommend the breakfast sandwich of sweet potato biscuit). Wait safely in a space next to the coffee bar (decorated with hanging plants) or grab a booth. The coffee itself is good and colorful cups help you determine what kind of coffee you like- floral, creamy, etc. If you like creamy, the vanilla latte is on point.

What a find! Great drinks, great food, and amazing service. The atmosphere is an impressive combination of comfortable and professional allowing for a causal meet-up with friends or a professional meeting over coffee. I’ll definitely be back!

Jammy Bacon and Egg sandwich was great. Straight Kanzu espresso was well done, if a bit longer than I prefer. It was served in glass with a spoon and sparkling water on a small wooden platter. It was the first pull of the day, and I appreciate that the barista sampled a small portion to test before serving it.

What a great little coffee shop! Had an excellent cup! Plus they sell Onyx coffee, a favorite brand of mine.
