    Iced NOLA Cold Foam
    Sydney G.

    I really wanna like blue bottle coffee. The vibes are great, the service is usually friendly and fast, but the coffee itself is just not to my preference. I find it to be much more bitter, which is not my favorite. They do often play great music in the store though And have lots of seating.

    Not enough food options and not enough latte flavored options. The ham and turkey sandwich was delicious!

    Iced NOLA

    Am I so addicted that I bought multiple reusable coffee cups just because I go to blue bottle so much? Yes, yes I did! So my regular go-to order is an iced or hot Nola with oat milk. I'm sad they don't have the croissant breakfast sandwiches anymore but the bay breakfast sandwich is just as good! I detour my morning commute just to stop at blue bottle!

    Best espresso in the city. Amazing and so creamy can't recommend enough. Cute spot too

    Black cardamom latte with an extra shot of espresso
    Ruth D.

    Second time coming back within a week for the Black Cardamom latte which has aromatic spice, and orange blossom. I think most of the lattes here automatically come with oat milk which I love because I'm lactose intolerant. This new coffee shop has a sleek and clean look. The baristas clearly know the technique to making a perfectly steamed latte with just the right amount of aerated foam on top- not to mention the cute designs. If presentation is everything well then they got everything going on. The taste itself is delicious as well. I bought a $25 bag of their coffee beans from their retail section. The Supernatural Blend No. 1 is a light/medium roast that has notes of strawberry, date, and crème brûlée. I've been enjoying brewing it at home and sipping on a cup as I type. I'll definitely be back to Blue Bottle.

    My 16oz latte was $8 before tip. It took them over 20 minutes to make it, and they made drinks of people who ordered way after me before mine. Drink was solid but definitely overpriced.

    I wish I had more time to sit and enjoy this coffee, but as travelers, we were on the go. Even with a long line, the wait was pleasant as the store overlooks the spacious inner courtyard and creates a welcoming atmosphere. The staff were friendly and efficient--they really know how to serve up great coffee!

    Iced caffe latte and brownie cookie
    Michelle C.

    They reopened today! Space is just as lovely and minimal as before. Today until close, they have a fun surprise for customers where the staff gives you a scratch off card and you see what you win. I won a free fudge brownie cookie from pluma, and other people in the store won one of those blue bottle coffee tumbler mugs. The iced latte was great as before and the cookie was a nice plus. Welcome back!

    The cup of coffee
    Steve C.

    A good cup of coffee, a bit high on the price, in a space that feels like it was engineered to make you uncomfortable. Really, the coffee is quite good, but it takes ~8min for a single cup. Also, while you wait, you can either cram into a small table by the full-length glass walls or sit at a singular round-table-esqu table and try to play king of the manspreaders. It's just crazy. I imagine this is the best they could come up with given the realities of the triangular space, but what works on paper just feels super uncomfortable and weird in person. Also, the line is not called out by any visible signage... so people just wander in front of the cashier the entire day asking folks milling around (8min for a cup of coffee, rmemeber) if they are in line. It sounds like I didn't like the place, but that's not true. It's good coffee. It just isn't the best experience to get it. TL;DR: Good coffee to go if you don't need to be anywhere too soon.

    Samra iced latte

    My boyfriend and I both got the Samra latte (~$8 each). The price is a little high but standard for the area. The coffee itself was solidly good but nothing extraordinary. I'm giving 5 stars because the service was great on top of an already solid cup of coffee. The cashier was super friendly and helpful when it came to recommending a drink. Free water is on tap as well which is always appreciated.

They were playing bossa and jazz. I opted for the Aren latte and Indonesian beef rissole. Aren latte: 5/5 Latte with an in-house made Aren (palm sugar from West Java) for that hint of molasses and dark brown sugar This was one of my favorite coffees I've had in a while. There was a delicious coffee taste not overshadowed but rather enhanced by the smoky sweet taste of the Aren. I'll be thinking about this latte for a while. Indonesian beef rissole: 3/5 Batter-like skin rolled in breadcrumbs filled with savory ground halal beef & sautéed vegetables While I've never had this dish before, I googled pictures of what it should look like, and mine seemed to have significantly less meat than it should've. The taste was still delicious and seasoned and hearty, but it was mostly mush with some veggies and hardly any beef. While I thought the rissole was disappointing, I love the aren latte so much I'll still keep the 5 star review.

I'm in search of the best croissant in DC, so I regret not getting the regular croissant on this visit, but the chocolate croissant gave me an idea of what to expect. Buttery, flaky, crispy, with just the perfect amount of sweetness. The typical chocolate croissant was my personal favorite. When we asked what the most popular items were, we were surprised it wasn't the more classic bakery items, but we enjoyed what we tried. We want to go back soon to try some other items as well. My friend got a coffee and also enjoyed that! This is the perfect place to stop by for a treat if you make it in time!

The cafe itself is huge, absolutely beautiful, and was packed when I visited. They have both indoor and outdoor seating, so it's a great spot whether you're meeting friends or getting some work done. The pastry case also looked incredible, I had such a hard time choosing, and I'll definitely be back to try more. I ordered a matcha, and I really appreciated that it wasn't pre-sweetened. It was creamy, earthy, and let the matcha shine. If you like your matcha a little sweeter, I'd recommend adding their in-house pistachio syrup. The only small downside was that it seemed like they use matcha concentrate that's prepared in advance rather than whisking each drink fresh. It was still good, but I do prefer freshly whisked matcha. Even with that, I'd absolutely come back. Their menu is extensive, everything coming out of the kitchen looked delicious, and the whole space has such a welcoming vibe. Also, take a minute to read the story behind the name "Tatte." It's such a sweet story and made me appreciate this place even more.
