    2 reasons why this is a 4 and not 5 stars: 1) the prices... (this is any blue bottle and not specific to this location, but we paid close to $20 for 2 coffees... what is life...) 2) the parking situation... which again isn't necessarily about the coffee or the place. but accessing the place was hard! so take with that what you will. Aside from that - my husband and I did enjoy our coffees! We found it to be good quality and yummy. The ambiance is also very cute - I mean, it's Georgetown! Service was also kind and speedy.

    I love the variety that they have on their menu, you can get really awesome drinks here that you really can't find other places which I really appreciated. They had plenty of seating inside and the whole store is a very minimalist, clean aesthetic. So don't expect much from decorations, but honestly, some people like it like that. I thought that this was pretty pricey, so prepare to spend $10 on a small lol and their system seemed really inefficient timewise, so just go here when you are not in a rush and you're good.

    Great study spot! It does get quite busy. The ambiance isn't too loud so perfect for working or studying. I tried their cold foam cold brew and it was strong and good. The location is super neat. I tried their location in Boston, Massachusetts and now here. Enjoyed both! One drink after taxes was $7.70, which is average in the area. They have outdoor and indoor seating.

    None assuming coffee shop with delicious pastries and wonderful coffee. I've visited more than one of their locations, this one in Georgetown and the other location in Mid-Town Manhattan. Whenever, I'm at DC's Union Station it's either too early or late for me visit that location. The Staff are friendly and make lovely art on the coffee milk foam. I've had both their coffee and hot chocolate, both were delicious. The Georgetown location was filled with people working or studying, it was a much larger location inside. The Mid-Town Manhattan location had a smaller footprint, with more seating outside being a busy and pricy space. It's a good coffee house to check out.

    Beautiful ambiance both inside and outside of this Gtown location. However, drinks are often half filled and lack flavor. My friend and I came in on a Sunday morning and were excited to dive into the Iced Nola Shakerato and Cold Brew. To my surprise, both drinks tasted nearly identical. As a fan of the Nola style drinks, I was quite disappointed - especially after this drink being $9. The service is speedy and the staff were friendly. Hope to see this location produce better quality drinks soon!

    Really good tasting coffee! I got the iced sweet latte, and it had the perfect amount of sweetness. The espresso was rich and smooth. However, be prepared to pay for it--this drink was $9. Also, it's always packed here, so finding a spot to sit can be quite difficult.

    Nice hidden gem in DC. I'll go for hang out and enjoy the nature. I had ice green tea. Pretty good. Outside is really good for taking pictures. A little further down is shopping area. Service is standard. Pay then pick up your coffee. Friendly staff. Only 1 bathroom so long wait as expected.

    A nice stop in a day of shopping... very hot outside so I was ready something cool and refreshing. Blue Bottle was recommended to me so I walked over. The place is a fun, formerly historic industrial area along a canal. Indoor/outdoor seating was easy to find, however it was a hot day so much of the inside seats were spoken for. The menu was simple and there was a small offering of pastries to choose from. I chose an iced coffee that was yummy and really worked as relief from the heat. The outside seating along the canal was both beautiful and peaceful. I'm so glad I found this place and didn't have to go to the next 10 shops my wife had in her list. I'll just chill here thank you...

    Great quick service. Maybe because it's post school. I also got a blueberry scone that I didn't have a picture for. It was more than 90 degrees but still people sitting outside. Inside are large tables more conducive to group work than having private conversations with some bar seating and a few couple seating around the edge of the space

    Blue bottle coffee is a downtown Georgetown staple set aside for only the most elite coffee lovers. The shop has a beautiful view of the river, tons of outdoor seating and indoor seating. Though there is often a line for coffee, it is worth the wait. Each drink order is truly poured with love, intention, and care. This time we tried espressos!

    The employees are always quick and from what I can tell the only gluten free option for baked goods is the cheese cake. It's a very chill coffee shop. I see a lot of people studying. It's long tables. More a communal vibe. I like their seasonal coffees. It's in the heart of Georgetown so very easy to pop into.

    Stopped by on a Saturday in Georgetown. This was my favorite time trying blue bottle coffee and I was not disappointed! The line was out the door when we arrived, but we made it to the front in about 5 minutes. I wanted a vanilla latte, and the waitress said they didn't have that but offered to give me one of their house syrups instead. My drink came out 15 minutes after the rest of my friends but the baristas apologized and gave me a voucher for next time- it was very nice of them! I really liked the coffee. All the seats were full when we came, so it would be risky place to try and do work, but I will be back for more coffee!

    I do agree that Georgetown is a little lacking in coffee shops. Gave this one a try and got an iced coffee and a breakfast sammie because they were out of avocado toast. I did love the hot sauce, but overall I thought they were just ok. The inside looks like an apple store with their long wood tables but they are lacking in available outlets as a lot of people were clamoring around any outlet available. Doesn't factor into my review - just an observation.

    Can I bring my dog inside? I know the one in Boston allows it.

    For all Blue Bottle Coffee cafes only service dogs are allowed inside, any other pets must remain outside the cafe.

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!

I don't typically go for counter service or QR code service restaurants, but stopped in for a quick bite before a concert at the Anthem. The Cuban sandwich is legit and very tasty with tender pork, soft fresh bread with a crunchy crust, and great pickles. And the stewed plantains were perfectly tender with a caramel like sweetness. Probably the nicest surprise was their reasonably priced cocktails that have a Cuban flair. The happy hour options are very tasty.

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.
