Traditional cappuccino
Amy S.

My husband and I went here on a whim on a Monday AM and were surprised to find it packed. Parking was easy due to its location in a strip mall. I was looking for a legit cappuccino and Cafein delivered! They had both cappuccino and "traditional cappuccino" (the difference being size aka volume of milk) and i could actually taste the coffee in my traditional cappuccino! My husband enjoyed his iced matcha latte, though we both agreed it tasted a little too sweet. Pastry selection was very sparse at 10:30. Our only complaint was that we didn't get reception and the WiFi wasn't working (though I appreciated that the password was on the table!). I don't think I'll make a point to return (it didn't have particularly cozy vibes), but if I were in the area I'd choose Cafein due to the quality.

Cafein is a busy cafe regardless of the time of the day you visit. I hate waiting for drinks when I just want caffeine on the go especially at a busy cafe like this. So I usually prefer ordering ahead of my arrival. Well, this cafe requires you to download their standalone app for such an occasion + make an account. I discovered this when I went onto their online website and just wish they allow web ordering in lieu of app download. My drinks were ready upon arrival but the pickup process was frustrating. I went to where people pick up their orders aka end of the counter. There was no cashier of sort at cash wrap. Stood there like an idiot with two baristas gawking at me fully aware I have been waiting for good 5 minutes. I finally spoke up after waiting and one of them told me "oh your order has been ready awhile ago but you just need to get it from the shelf near the cash register" WOWEE thanks for the letting me know after all this time! God knows how much longer I would have had to just stand there had I not spoken up! There was really no clear signage that I could see upon entering the cafe that there's a shelf full of to-go orders you pluck out. It was good to know for the next time but it was just UGH when you have jetlag and in a rush. I tried out 3 different drinks over the 5-days stay I had in the region and only liked one of them -- the iced London Fog Latte. It has a nice lavender tinged tea flavor that's slightly on the too sweet side of the spectrum. Too bad there's no option of adjusting the sweetness like picking 75% sweet when ordering online. The matcha latte looks pretty but it's chalky, weak, and too sweet. It almost tastes like I'm drinking straight up milk with green coloring to it. I don't recommend. Same with butterscotch latte. The name sounds enticing but it didn't taste much differently than a standard latte. So disappointing. All in all, I still prefer ordering my caffeine from a local small business like this but if I'm in SoCal, this would be a 2-star place with no chance of revisiting. Just with the unfriendly and snooty customer service + having to download an app + mediocre $$ drink makes it a NO.

One of my favorite coffee shops! Love the atmosphere at CAFEIN. The coffee's great and the employees are super friendly! Lots of seatings and they play great music. It's a nice place for hanging out with friends, reading, or getting your work done. Tried one of their specialties, the Honey Cinnamon Latte and it's so good! They served it in a mug, which is always a plus and extra cozy! Can't wait for my next visit!

Came for a quick breakfast and was really surprised by their food. The ham and cheese croissant was pretty standard but their breakfast sandwich was really good! It had avocado, red onions and a wasabi mayo that went really well with the sausage and egg! Their coffee was pretty good as well - typical flavored lattes that you can find at most places. Solid cafe with more food options than most! Entrees: Sausage Breakfast Sandwich and Ham and Cheese Croissant Drinks: Rose and Vanilla Latte

Honey Cinnamon Latte
Raneem K.

Love this coffee shop so much! We come here all the time. Super clean, friendly staff and super yummy drinks and food!

Honey Cinnamon Latte
Katlyn H.

I finally got to try Cafein and it was even better than I expected. I had the honey cinnamon latte, which is one of the best lattes I have ever had. The latte had so much flavor. I also had the sausage egg and cheese on brioche. The sandwich was delicious and hot. We weren't able to eat our food at the location since all the tables were occupied. If you are going, I'd recommend going earlier, we went at about 11:30 on a Saturday.

One of my favorite coffee shops! Good coffee, friendly workers and this location has more and better seating which makes it nice for working or meeting friends. It's almost always busy though so the only downside would be if you can't find a seat I love their rose latte but their Hojicha and matcha latte are also pretty good too

The Veggie on Wheat Bagel
Jenny B.

I saw a TikTok that said, "chef's kiss isn't good enough, I need to go back and make love to the chef." Yeah... this place is that for me. The creamy tomato soup is perfectly balanced; the right amount of sweetness, tanginess, and just a little kick. The thickness is spot-on, with small minced pieces that give it great texture without being chunky. The grilled cheese somehow has so much flavor for something so simple. Crispy, comforting, and done exactly right. The rose latte was a standout: not overpowering, not overly sweet, and you can still smell the rose subtle and elegant. The veggie on a wheat bagel tasted incredibly fresh and clean, like every ingredient actually mattered. Service was amazing, quick and clean. The space itself is simple, clean, and calm, the kind of place where you can actually get work done and lose track of time. I'm still thinking about this café, and honestly, it's probably the best one we've been to so far.

On a long trip the first thing you have to do is start the journey right with food and Cafein. Super nice space with ample seating. I ordered the veggie breakfast sandwich and was pleasantly surprised. Cooked to order indeed and well worth the $8 price tag...I combined that selection with a cortado with just a hint of simple syrup (best to choices to start the day). You can immediately tell the place is indeed a fan favorite, the staff is super attentive and friendly. WiFi codes are on the table for usage if you need it...I'd stay away from the front in the winter months because it may be a little chilly in the front with the guest entering and leaving. Overall a solid find indeed and worth a 20 25 min drive by far.

The atmosphere is quite sterile - no character and poor lighting. It is however a good place to work from and the coffee is good. Free wifi & plenty of parking.

A cute spot located in the metrotech shopping center! They have strong coffee, and cute latte art. The service is quick and efficient, and the staff is kind. It's a wonderful place to WFH, or catch up with friends!

Elizabeth K.

I don't hype this place enough but I believe it to be one of the best cafes with the best coffee in the DMV area, in my opinion. On top of their coffee being great, they have amazing food options as well and also at their centreville location - but I prefer this location. Desserts are all so delicious as well, if you ever see the earl grey flavor, definitely pick it up!

Ube cheesecake

Located in the Sully Place Shopping Center in Chantilly, Cafein offers a selection of delicious and unique lattes, including Butterscotch, Rose, and Davant. Guests can enjoy tasty pastries and cakes, along with fresh sandwiches, in a clean, modern, minimalist, and cozy environment ideal for work or socializing with friends. Ordering is straightforward, and the service is satisfactory. The breakfast sandwiches, especially the classic B.E.L.T. and the cream coffee, are highly recommended. Overall, it provides a pleasant start to the day.

The food is in appealing display cases downstairs. The stand out pastries for me are the tiramisu filled cronuts. Drinks wise, they have the typical cafe fare but excitingly so they also have Colombe on draft which I will always be excited about. I recommend this place to grab a snack and socialize!
