I love Chateau de Rockville. It has been a year since they opened and the quality and service is…read morealways excellent. When, I am looking for my comfort drink, I always order my mango lychee frappes. It is full of fruit, delicious taste, and perfect for a summer day. The ambiance inside the shop is modern, wood style decor, with lots of seating and nice lighting. The only thing I don't like is trying to find parking in their lot. It is always crowded. But, the delicious sweets and yummy drinks make it worth the extra effort. Thank you, Chateau de Rockville.

This little cafe is just a short walk from our hotel when we visited Maryland. I love pastry and…read morelove a good brew so we gave it a try. When we visited the first time it was very busy - on a Wednesday afternoon. No one is working and everyone is out drinking coffee? LOL! All the pastries are in the middle cases, mostly sweet ones on one side and savoy on the other. The price was very reasonable, unless you get the few selective croissants with special ingredients, such as the pistachio one we tried. The highlight is the latte. These days when you go to a cafe they give you a paper cup regardless if you are dining in with no latte art. We got the cute cup with lovely art. This along deserves 4.5 stars. The pastry were just OK if you ask me. You are able to heat it up yourself with the little toaster by the counter, but you feel rushed as there are others standing around waiting to heat up theirs, or want to get water which is right next to the toaster. overall it was a cute little place, I think it was owned by Korean as it give me a very korean cafe vibe.. LOL. If we ever go back to Maryland and stay near by we would re-visit.

This place carried me through my college years, so I'll always have a soft spot for it. But here is…read moremy non-bias review - Their double espresso is genuinely the best I've had in the DMV. The atmosphere is just as good -- whoever designed the interior knew exactly what they were doing. It's warm, cozy, and a great place to sit down with a coffee and get some work done. The staff have always been incredibly friendly too, which just adds to the vibe. I love this place.

Great little coffee shop in Traville shopping strip…read more When I went around lunchtime (12-1) during the week the people inside were doing office work (like me) so I liked that it was not too loud inside and there is definitely enough space between everybody. The shop is very cute and it has a lot of stuff on the walls to look at, it even has a vintage coffee grinder in the back near the back entrance. Definitely a nice coffee shop to go to if you're looking for a place to work that isn't busy like Starbucks.

Also everytime I've went the wifi sucked or did not work at all. Which is a huge bummer but I digress... Large array of breads, cakes, and drinks. Some of the breads I ordered were a bit dry and not crazy. But still cute and worth the vibes. They have new branding for their drinks - their milk tea was pretty good. I heard their pancakes were really yummy. Will try that next.

This is one of the little Cafe near by the hotel we stayed when we went to Maryland recently…read more The place is pretty cute, bright and airy. Some seatings were comfy (the ones in the back) and the others was a bit hard. Most of the pastries are in the middle with sweet ones on one side and savoys on the other. The price was really reasonable. I saw so many savoy ones I would love to try if I ever visit at BF time. I saw they have Cronut (Croissant and Donut in one). I had had Cronut in Vegas (at the Paris Hotel), but the ones here looked a little different so I wanted to try. Mistake. It was extremely greasy. The oil soaked through the paper plate and I had to squeeze the pieces I cut with napkins to get as much oil out as possible. I would give it a 2 star, it would have been good if not so oily. The egg tarts on the other hand deserved a 5 star. Love it. The latte tasted fine, but it took them a while to make it (almost 10 mins) and served in the normal paper cup, I was hoping for a nice latte art since it took so long. Overall it is a wonderful place to sit around and enjoy some quiet time, just don't get the cronut unless they cut down on the oil...

Power house sandwich had a good amount beef and well mixed with cheese and horseradish and caramelized onion. Nicely toasted bread. It is good for a morning bite with protein.

If I could give a negative rating I would. Worst experience ever. Ordered five drinks. They had…read morenothing to indicate which drink was what. Not helpful when we are bringing them home. When asked to identify the drinks they looked down their noses at us and said: oh, do you want us to write what they are on the cup? One drink listed as caramel apple iced shaken espresso. We asked for light ice. It was full Ice and NOT shaken. "We can't shake it, it might explode." We asked for it to be made again, correctly, but they still refused to shake it. Around a $50 order, and no respect for the customer. A disappointing experience.

It was slightly busy but the line moved fairly quickly. The restaurant has a good amount of seating and a lot of people dining in were simply enjoying their weekend. Unfortunately I had to work so everything was to go for me. I would love to have the opportunity to just dine in one day. I also want to try their Virginia location since that recently opened as well. I'm also still waiting on their rainbow/chantilly filled croissant because it had to be the best pastry I've ever eaten. Would happily return here. Wish they had a punch card for their regular customers.

Picked up a few croissants and a hot tea. I got the Almond Croissant (love) and decided to try the…read moreBlackberry Pistachio Croissant as well. The Blackberry Pistachio Croissant was flaky and full of a sweet-tart house made blackberry compote and rich pistachio frangipane. For the hot tea, I got Island Mango just on the description - sweet bits of mango, pineapple, orange, safflower & hibiscus. It was served as decaf. Once I let it cool, it had a citrus taste, but not sweet. I am still glad to have tried it and did not have to wait long for the order. Within a block of leaving the business, while holding the hot cup with one hand (the sleeve only helped a little), some of the hot tea spilled on me suddenly (I now have a burned scar on my knuckle). I don't know if the cover was on right, or if my movements made the top come off. I couldn't blame anyone. I did go back and had them replace the top since the other fell on the ground outside. When they say "hot" tea, they are not lying. Moving forward, no more hot drinks for me.

Also got a pistachio eclair and cake along with matcha and chocolate croissant. The chicken salad sandwich and simple arugula salad were delicious. My daughter loved her chocolate eclair. The strawberry matcha was made fresh strawberries. They were incredibly welcoming and helpful. I look forward to returning.

Found out about this spot via IG. Their lattes looked great, so I had to check them out. We tried…read morethe strawberry matcha and pistachio cloud latte. Both were just okay, with the pistachio being better. I would have preferred some fresh mashed strawberry pieces in the strawberry matcha and the pistachio latte and a floral aftertaste. Both weren't bad, just not what I was expecting. Service was super friendly and the individual taking orders did a great job, especially since he was all by himself. I'll definitely be back to try their pastries and maybe a regular latte next time.

But, this bakery has only gotten better with age. It looks like a little French bistro with the red brick walls and counters full of breads and baked goods. Service was great. The gentleman who waited on us was very nice. I bought a chocolate croissant. It was rich and buttery filled with delicious layers of chocolate. I also ordered an apple turnover. The crust was melt in your mouth delicious. And, the apple filling was superb. Lastly, I ordered a cannell. It was rich and sweet and so delicious. So, each of my three desserts were amazing. The prices were reasonable. It is tucked back on the right side of the street. You can use Chef Tony's as a reference point. I guarantee I will be going back soon.

The cafe itself is pretty small with only a few indoor tables but more outdoor seating available. My friend said they make their own focaccia bread and we each decided to get a Fancy Grilled Cheese. The bread was indeed amazing and flavorful. What made the grilled cheese unique was that they added a tomato-based jam/salsa of some kind that really added a nice fresh acidity to balance out the cheese. I believe they used two kinds of cheese, including brie which is my fav. The cheese was creamy and melty. The food came out pretty quickly and the staff was friendly. Definitely a nice stop if you're walking around the area although there was no shortage of food options!
