Came here for a quick brunch and it was okay. The only issue I had was there was a fly embedded in my cheese guava pastry lol. They gave me a new one so it was fine. Empanadas and coffee were good as well. I liked the outdoor seating and the overall vibe was cute. read more

Colada Shop - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Definitely a vibey place. Not many Cuban shops in the DC area so they definitely stole the show with their empanadas, iced coffee, and the cute interior. Although the space of the place was rather tight, it's nice that they offer seating at their rooftop. This is the perfect summer go-to place. You'll feel like you're near a beach! read more

As a South Florida native, I am always on the search for good Cuban and Latin/South American food! My fiance and I decided to spend last weekend at the Wharf to take advantage of the good weather and I found this place while googling good grab-and-go type places so we could eat by the water. Colada shop was the perfect fit! It's a new store, but had good business the Sunday night we dined here. There are plenty of indoor tables and cute yellow outdoor tables, though it's not on the waterfront so you don't have the benefit of the view. But I liked how the sandwich was portable so we could just find seating by the wharf and have a little picnic there. We ordered one Cuban sandwich for about $13, which was enough for the two of us. It wasn't the best Cuban sandwich I've ever had, but it was very good and satisfying! I would buy it again. There are a lot of options on the menu and I'm looking forward to trying some of the desserts next time I visit! read more

Ehhhh I was kind of disappointed in this place. It looks super cute and chill, but the drinks and dessert here are not worth the money. We got mojitos, which tasted super bland and flavorless. I felt like it was missing something. The desserts were terrible. I would not recommend you getting any from this place. read more

I enjoyed the atmosphere and the food was decent, but the service was less than ideal. we sat outside and ordered drinks from the QR code and after waiting for 35 minutes, i finally went inside to ask if the drinks would be coming out. I was then told that even though my friend ordered from the "normal" menu, our drinks did not come out and we wouldn't be getting them because I ordered from the "rooftop only" menu and the rooftop was closed. the drink came up when I scanned the QR code where I was sitting and when I explained that, the bartender offered no alternatives and seemed confused when I asked for a refund. you're also required to pay in advance through the QR code, so I waited 40 minutes after paying and tipping. this may be a good place to grab A quick Sandwich, but if you're looking to sit down and enjoy a drink with company, this probably isn't the place. read more

Great ambiance with an amazing roof cafe and bar. Food is usually good but prepackaged. Great coffee good for someone on the go

Colada offered me a vibe and menu that took me right back home to Miami! I came in with a friend for an early Happy Hour (4-7p) and the rooftop on a gorgeous day. I'm so happy I did! The front patio is quaint and breezy, reminding me of one of the cuban cafe's along the Ave at home. The rooftop, although a little tight isn't overly crowded with seating and offers a perfect place to perch for the summer. Now we all know DC has a number of rooftop bars with overpriced, unimpressive cocktails crammed pack. This is not the case at Colada! The menu is the real deal! I almost moaned in pure bliss when eating a guava and cheese pastelito! They're made fresh and perfectly gold and flaky! They also have all of the other authentic offerings you'd expect from Cuban coffee perfectly sweetened to croquetas!!! And the drinks are fresh, bright, and STRONG! So order one, take a seat, and enjoy the chill vibe. But the staggering thing is how fairly priced everything is especially for DC!!! I can't believe I haven't been before, but I'll certainly be back soon! Pro Tips: - Hotel Nacional is a bang for your buck ($8) - The rooftop and seating in general is limited so get to HH before 5p - The HH menu upstairs is limited but you can order at the main downstairs and bring drinks/food up without a problem read more

*Happy Hour Review* I've been to the Colada Shop twice now for their HH. They have a very cute rooftop area with ample seating. All cocktails are $6 and good. Ive tried alllll of their empanadas ($2) and my favorite was the ground beef one, followed by the chicken). Everything comes out quick! I can see myself going back more when the weather gets nicer! read more

Colada Shop - Empanadas, mojito, and i forgot what the orange one was - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

I came here with a group of friends. It's good for drinks BUT it is small. This is also not a good place for food. They have small bits, like tiny empanadas and things but with not a ton of food it's easy to get drunk fast. One of my friends ordered the popsicle but she hated it. It's a glas of rum with the popsicle stick in it. She was not happy because she continually had to dip her popsicle in the rum. She thought the rum was already in it. The other issue is that because this is a small place their cups run out fast and they get backed up quickly. So I was waiting for a classic colada for almost 20 minutes. But I waited that long because their drinks were really that good. read more

Colada shop was definitely a hidden gem when it first opened. I used to go by, grab a cafe con leche and take myself on a mini vacay. BUT NOW! Colada shop is getting the attention that it deserves and I'm not mad at it (I mean not that mad). Before I never had an issue finding a seat but now it's difficult around happy hour/early evening; don't let that steer you away. The drinks are outstanding; strong, well mixed and the flavors are layered so nicely. I enjoy all of the finger foods, definitely wasn't a huge fan of their cuban but I'm picky. Summer on the rooftop is beautiful. If you ever get a chance to stop in and it's open, I encourage you to experience it. One thing I will add is that since the business has increased some things are compromised; sometimes service, sometimes quality of the food, sometimes your drinks. It comes with growing businesses so I'm not docking stars but I encourage management to promote consistency because that is what keeps people coming back. read more

DC cocktails top 10 spot-Great outdoor space on the roof to relax and enjoy! Make room for yummy food after or during cocktails!

When I went here for a morning iced Cuban coffee, it was suggested to me to pair my coffee with the black bean croquettes. If the perfectly decadent sweet coffee wasn't enough to keep my coming back to this sunny outpost just off of 14th Street, then the life-changing croquettes sealed the deal. I'm not normally one to go for deep-fried snacks at 9 in the morning, but these are truly out-of-the-ordinary. read more

I usually come here on weekdays given the few morning options in 14th street. Today I decided to get a quick sandwich on a weekend. There was a line as I expected so I knew I had to be somewhat patient. After ordering, I waited. Eventually I noticed that other people after me in the queue were getting their food before me. So finally I decided to follow-up my order and then showed my buzzer number. They guy realized there was no ticket. Typically I would be understanding if this was a one off mistake but another guy sitting at the back area also did not get his food and they had to make it off the fly. Clearly they don't have a good system for orders when it gets busy which is sad since they've been open for some time. So my advice is to follow-up if you think you're not getting your food within reasonable time. I looked at my phone and realized it took 35 minutes after ordering to get my food. I would have gotten my food much faster if I went to a sit down place like Ted's or Tico's down the block. Food quality is still good for this area, but the menu has also not changed as much since they opened. read more

Great ambiance for groups and happy hours! We hosted our monthly Wine Down Ladies' Social on their Rooftop Garden just last night. We had a group of ~20 ladies who absolutely loved the space, the food, and the drinks! We ordered group catering, so the ladies only had to handle their drinks. Even then, ladies went back for more empanadas! The dessert was also a big. We had small sizes of key lime pie, flan, and tres leeches. We will definitely be back around next Spring! P.S. The plantain chips and black bean dip was everything I needed and more!! #WineDownSocials @justjuevents read more

Always have a great time here. Good drinks, reasonable price, great vibes! The staff is very nice.

Hi everyone. La colada is a sore disappointment. I bought several dishes and was excited to try them! After eating them, I wanted to cry, or just go find some people from Cuba to talk to so I could compare my reaction to theirs. I entered with high expectations. I left really, really disappointed. Would Cubans be disappointed in this place too? Cafe Colada (Colada Shop) in Rockville/ Potomac has all the fun and hype of good marketing, adorable bags, attractive color schema, cool interior design with a patio, fun merch such as the adorable mug that says cafe con leche, and engaging promotional material like the take out bag that says "This is how Cuba does coffee. This is how Cuba does food. This is how Cuba does cocktails. This is how Cuba does social. We call it Cuban-ism. Let us transport you." I did get transported, but to yuck, not yummy. I was kind of angry. After buying a beef empanada and a spinach and cheese empanada, I call it fake. The only thing I was transported to is American fast food fried dough with some cheddar cheese and a lump of frozen spinach thrown in there. It tasted of materialism, and a quick way to make a buck, not of the love, care and TLC that should go into making empanadas. How can they sell their empanadas and be proud? I remember my friend who, years ago, sold empanadas from her home. She was from Chile. Every weekend her home was packed with friends who wanted to buy her freshly made empanadas right out of the oven. Yes girl! It was worth the wait every time. THAT was food. THAT was social. THAT was empanadas. Dignified ones.......que nos dejaban con ganas de comer mas, que dejaban en alto el nombre de la empanada, con toda la dignidad y la gloria que se merecen las empanadas. The beef empanada at Cafe Colada was probably the sorriest excuse for an empanada I have ever experienced. I was so hungry though, so I ate it. I kept hoping I could convince myself that it was better than it was. The empanada was cheap, had thick, fried bubbly dough and was stuffed with a bunch of hamburger meat (no other anything). The hamburger meat was not particularly tasty at all. It seemed like they just cooked the ground beef by itself, without even adding onions. Huh? Yes. True. The cheese was the wrong kind (is Cuba into American Cheddar cheese?) and the dough was unpleasantly thick. Really thick. Goya's frozen empanadas at Giant are better than the ones I tried at Colada Shop today. Overall, the Cafe Colada shop, to me, has bling seemingly without substance. I tried the mamey batido. Again, that would be a no thank you. So much sugar and ..I guess frozen mamey. I have never been to Cuba, but the mamey batido I had today, I am sure, cannot compare to a fresh, authentic one. But kuddo's to Colada for trying. Instead of road rage, I had a mild case of "empanada rage." I was so disappointed. The empanadas I ate simply do not deserve the name empanada. The owners cannot possibly approve of them, or do they? Then again, maybe in Cuba what I ate today would be considered a good empanada. I am not sure. As of yet, I have not had the privilege of going to Cuba or of having Cuban friends. After eating food from Cafe Colada today, I would probably spend my money elsewhere if I wanted to try Cuban food. I remember the Cuban Corner in Rockville. It was great! I am not sure if it is still there. If I could not go to Cuba, I would first try many other places in the DC, MD, and VA area before trying Cafe Colada. I may give them one more shot because I did not try their coffee today. My expectations, if I return, will be very low. Did I say my expectations would be low? Very. Cuba deserves better. read more

Big fan of this place. It is perfect for any occasion- full meal (try one of their sandwiches), snack (empanadas), coffee, or cocktails (super reasonable prices and quality drinks). Highlights: - Super cute location. They have a ton of seating in the back and a great rooftop for warmer months and even colder months since it is heated in the winter. The decor in this place is so cute and trendy! I love it :) - The Cuban sandwich was delicious. I love warm toasted sandwiches and this one did not disappoint. There was a good amount of meat and cheese to hold it all together. Wish there were a bit more pickles or pickled veggies for added flavor and brightness. - The pina colada. Great alcoholic or non alcoholic. I love frozen drinks and this one had a good flavor and I really enjoyed the toasted coconut on top. I have to go back to try their other amazing drink creations. read more

Really good coffee! The pastries were a little too greasy for me, but maybe that's just a personal preference.

the food is amazing and Osmanny always makes sure we are well taken care of. always a good time!

They serve really good Cuban sandwiches (a bit expensive), but it's weird that they don't recycle. DC makes it easy for counter restaurants like this to recycle--shame on them for not doing that! read more

We rented out the rooftop for an event. Katie was such a pleasure to work with leading up to the event - so accommodating and organized! The space was amazing, and food and drinks were delicious. We had Yahaira and Melvin help us with service the day of and I can't say enough good things - so friendly, efficient, and wonderful! Thank you all for such a great experience! read more

This place is definitely a hidden gem! My friend introduced me to this place and I am very glad that she did. We just came here for a quick drink. This place is so cute! Great ambiance and great set-up. I dont remember the cocktail I ordered but I was impressed to even have this option at a shop like this! I also got the churros which were amazing, but it does take a wait to make them. The rooftop is so beautiful so that definitely added to my experience. It it definitely a cute HH spot, a place for a first date, a meet up spt...etc. read more

Fast, friendly service. I ordered the mojito & three chicken empanadas. The cashier only rang me up for one and she admitted her mistake and gave me the other two. I appreciated this great customer service. My cousin ordered the tres leches. We went upstairs to sit out on the rooftop. I was disappointed to discover they gave me beef empanadas . I didn't go back downstairs through. The sauce with the empanadas was delicious also. It was in a very small container of to go along with three empanadas. The tres leeches was so good I bought one to take home. It was the last one . This was my first time trying it. Not much parking around here. But they have seating outside in front also. You will not be disappointed so stop in & give them a try. read more

Whew, that piña colada was BOMB. The toasted coconut really makes the drink. As mention by others, Miami Cuban food with DC prices (you cant win them all). I would highly recommend coming here when it gets warm. They have a great roof top now and happy hour! Also they have a rewards program too! They have everything from plantain chips to sandwiches. read more

This one of my favorite places in DC! When you walk in it feels so welcoming because of the joyful music, bright colors, and delicious food/drinks! What more could you want? The people working here are very friendly as well. It's a great place to go with a small group or alone. I highly recommend the Ice Café con leche or the Havana Cold Brew, and for cocktails, you must try the Piña Colada! They always have seasonal flavors for Empanadas and Croquetas so make sure to ask when you go in. I always stop by when I'm in this neighborhood. Closest metro stop is U Street. read more

Food is actually really good and the coffee is great, it's a shame the staff is incredibly rude.

I ordered through UberEats, so you can get it delivered. This is the best Cuban sandwich I have had in DC! No joke. I highly recommend it! I really loved their presentation and how they delivered my order which is why I took the picture. The beef empanada was really good, it was kind of flaky which I love. The sandwich had actual pork meat, which I truly appreciate because that is the way it should be done and not with different types of deli meat. I also tried the Banana Rum Walnut Muffins which I just wished were a little more moist. Overall, loved it and would order again or hit the shop when I don't feel like being a coach potato. Lol! read more

I stopped here for a quick bite on a Sunday around 11:30 AM. It was a really hot day, the weekend before July 4th, and Colada Shop was pretty busy when I arrived. However, there wasn't a long queue at the front. The pastries in the case looked so good that I decided to sample a couple; I opted for the seasonal croquetas (sweet corn; croquetas come in twos) and a guava pastelito. I also got an iced café con leche. I was given a buzzer to let me know when my order would be out, and they also heated up my pastries. Probably more than half of the seating was occupied when I was there. The shop has some long tables by the window and some bar seating against the wall across from the cash register. The window seating would be nice in good weather, but the seating along the wall was less comfortable because people waiting for their orders would also hover around them, so there was less space. There was more seating, including tables and couches, in the back room. I got a couch in the corner of the room; there was a ceiling leak near me but they'd put out a bucket and it didn't bother me too much. I really loved the croquetas; they were really flavorful, and bigger than I originally expected. The guava pastelito was well made and had a generous amount of filling. The pastries wound up making me fuller than I'd expected and I didn't really need lunch that day as a result. You can choose the sweetness level of the café con leche--I chose the middle level and it was perfect. Colada Shop was really cute and I enjoyed my food and drink a lot. The woman taking my order was a bit terse, but that might've been because the place was a bit busy. I would definitely love to come back and try some more pastries! read more

A little cute Cuban shop! I have been dying to go try this place. And this weekend, I was finally in the neighborhood and decided to pop up and check it out. The colorful design itself matches the summer menu. They also have a rooftop garden where you get to people watch on U street while sip over your pouched cocktails, pina cola, sangria or mojito! During my visit, I didn't get to try their famous snack- empanada. But, I got this delicious cocktail called Babalu. You can taste the mango madness in this drink. It's absolutely delicious. Their Cuban coffee is so smooth!! Def have to try the cafe con leche. read more

I freakin loved this place! I came to visit DC for a weekend and made sure I ate here twice before I left! What's not to love here? They have a gorgeous roof top patio where you can get croquetas and empanadas if you didn't order enough when you were downstairs, they serve excellent vegetarian options and churros and café con leche. If I lived in DC this would be a go to spot! My friend and I ordered the spinach empanadas, guava cheese pastry, yucca & cheese croquetas, churros and the vegetarian 'cuban' sandwich. I got say I never would have thought about cauliflower for a Cuban sandwich but it works!! I wish it had more mushrooms but it was still delicious - that pressed toasted bread makes it! And you get a side of plantain chips- WIN Oh and we can't forget the churros con chocolate and café con leche! These didn't disappoint either. The churros are more on the doughy type side so it's just a matter of preference if you like crispy vs doughy. I still enjoyed them even though I tend to prefer crispier. I also love that you can customize your café con leche "Miami sweet" or "half sweet" AND they have milk alternatives- P.S. try it with soy milk it's very good. Needless to say, this spot is totally worth checking out. Get a little taste of cuba/ Miami in DC Ciao! read more

This will be one of my new lunch/after work hang out spots this Summer. There is so much outdoor seating space, both in the front of the shop, as well as the rooftop. The color of the walls and decor is just screaming SUMMER! I ordered the guava and cheese pastelito and the veggie cuban sandwich to share with my friend. The pastelito was so flaky and I just love the combination of guava and cheese, so tropical and creamy at the same time. The veggie cuban is a great alternative if you don't want to eat meat. I would've like more mushrooms in the sandwich..there was only like 3 slices. I also ordered a cafe con leche and asked if it could be minimally sweet and the cashier said he would indicate them to make it 1/4 sweet. It was perfect! It reminded me a lot of vietnamese iced coffee. It was strong, creamy, with just a hint of sweetness. I can't wait to come back for their drinks after work!! read more

The Food: You can't beat the 3 empanadas for $7 deal! They typically have a seasonal flavor as well. The empanadas here are more flakey than the dough-like kind. I always get the chicken or beef but they also have a spinach and cheese one that is amazing. I have tried several sandwiches, but my friends and I always get the media noche which is a classic. The coffee is great and they have interesting flavors, recently tried their twist on a matcha latte and it was very innovative and had a smokey woody flavor. I haven't tried their cocktails but they look great! The Space: They recently opened their roof top! This is a great place for the spring and summer because of the open patio and rooftop. It is a little small in the inside, so it might be challenging to find seating for a large group. The decor is fun and colorful which makes the place very lively. It is a great place to hang out with some friends to enjoy the weather! read more

Colada Shop - 3 Empanadas - $7 & Small Havana Cold Brew - $2.50 - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Items Selected: Media Noche Sandwich - Ham, Slow Roasted Pork, Swiss Cheese, Mustard, Cilantro Aioli, Pickles, Sweet Roll Guava Cheese Pastelito Rum & Coke Cookies Dulce de Leche Brownie Tres Leches Cake Tucked away on T Street but just steps from the trendy 14th Street Corridor it was after a fairly blasé breakfast that attention turned to Colada Shop, the small restaurant purporting the idea of "Come Curious, Leave Cuban" not particularly busy around 9:15am with three employees in the middle of cleaning and stocking shelves but nonetheless quite pleasant. Originally opened in February and sporting a sister location in Sterling Virginia, the vibrant blue building with a bar looking outward over an open-air patio not only immediately noticeable but very inviting even at a distance, it is immediately upon entering doors marked "come curious" that guests are greeted by bilingual staff ready to discuss Food and make recommendations, several Baked Goods laid out on countertops with additional items chilled or kept warm as appropriate and Sandwiches made-to-order. Keeping hours from 7am-9pm on Weekdays and shifting both back an hour on Weekends, the concise menu an all-day affair not dissimilar to what one might see in Miami's Little Havana, it should come as no surprise to anyone that Colada Shop is best known for both its namesake Cocktail and the traditional Cuban Sandwich yet being far too early to start drinking the better part of valor seemed to be beginning with something sweet, a Pastelito filled with Guava and Cream Cheese smooth and warm inside the nicely laminated Pastry. Waiting perhaps six or seven minutes as a Sandwich was constructed, a plastic snap-tight container filled with sopping wet Tres Leches Cake topped in toasted Meringue keeping diners perfectly happy during that time, it was just as soon as the Media Noche was handed over that bites were taken, nothing about the Cuban served on a Sweet Roll particularly photogenic but every bite delicious as the roasted Pork carried a bit of smoke to offset salty Ham and Swiss lightly brushed with Mustard. Unable to resist a few more "nontraditional" bakery selections, the Cuba Libre Cookies unfortunately a bit disappointing as they were grainy and not all that different from a standard Sugar Cookie, it was thankfully in a Dulce de Leche Brownie that final bites were invested, the density more like Cake than fudge but the salty Caramel ribbons readily evident both in terms of taste and texture. read more

3 words. Café con Leche. Mmm... For some reason, Cuban coffee with steamed milk seems to taste better than a regular latte. Do you know what makes it taste EVEN better? A warm churro on top. I've been at Colada Shop numerous times before, but this past November, I saw an ad about some of their seasonal drinks available during that limited time. After I had dinner in the area, I decided to grab a Café con Leche. But what made it extra special was that it came with a warm churro ring - a perfect Spanish twist on coffee and donuts. This unassuming cafe is perfect not only to grab some caffeine, but also there are a number of great food options - ranging from fresh empanadas and Cubano sandwiches to delicious Cuban flan. What's even better is that they have a small rooftop area that's perfect to unwind in a relaxed and cozy environment - whether you are catching up with friends and family or having a date night. ++ To the fact that this place also has oat milk as a milk alternative option! read more

The décor and layout of this shop is very trendy and hip. I love the bright colors and just funness of the setup. It's a fast casual place, so you order at the front and wait for your food/drinks to come out and seat yourself. It was happy hour at the time, so we ordered drinks (the carrot cocktail and the turmeric cocktail). I would say for $6 it's not terrible, but not the best either taste wise. The drinks all sound very unique and interesting, but it wasn't as impressive as we thought. We ordered the cubano and the veggie sandwich. We were really excited to try this place because there aren't many Cuban places in the city. I was honestly shocked when I opened the wrapping to find a curly hair right where they cut the sandwich in half. It made me lose my appetite in a instant. I ended up eating the other half of the sandwich, but the thought in my head didn't leave me the entire meal (not so pleasant). The sandwich itself was not bad - I think maybe a little lighter on the sauce and roasting the cauliflower to make it crispier would be much more balanced since it got a little soggy towards the end. The bread is chewy and your typical Cubano bread - very tasty. I like that the sandwiches get the press, but my friend's sandwich was black on one side because it was pressed a little too long. read more

True rating: 3.5 I've been curious about this place since Tom Sietsema rated it one of this year's top 10 new restaurants. When my husband and I finally made it in, we ordered two drinks, an order of empanadas, and a Cuban sandwich to share. I'd had my sights set on a piña colada, but unfortunately their machine was not working properly. It was too watery, so they wouldn't sell me one. I went with a mojito instead, while my husband got a Cuba Libre. Both were pretty good, especially for $8 a piece, but I found them a little too sweet, especially the mojito. The empanadas were the highlight of the meal. They were the perfect crunchiness, and the fillings were very tasty. We both liked the seasonal one (sweet corn and mozzarella). I also really liked the chicken. The cuban was good, although it was a little cold in the middle. I would probably try something else next time. Finally, while the building is lovely, I found the atmosphere to be a little strange if you're there to share a meal. Most people (at least when we were there at 5 pm on a federal holiday) were treating this place as a coffee shop. Translation: no one was talking except us. Luckily (?) the music was super loud, so I didn't feel like everyone was being forced to listen to our conversation. Not a deal breaker - just a little strange. Ultimately, I'd give this place another chance if I'm in the neighborhood, but I don't think I'll go out of my way to visit again. read more
