    Kind service and relaxing atmosphere. Would definitely recommend for Coffee, tea, and a casual lunch/breakfast.

    Haraz is a beautifully decorated, large Middle Eastern-inspired coffee house where couples and…read morelarge groups come in to relax and chat while sipping on strong, delicious coffees and eating comforting pastries. I saw Haraz on Instagram right around the time they opened, and the photos and videos of the interior and the food are spot on. The designers knew exactly what they were doing with the color pallet, lighting, and furniture to design an open, welcoming, and relaxing space reminiscent of the Middle East. You order at the counter either through a tablet or with an employee, and if there is a line you get a few extra moments to gaze into their pastry display that also features my favorite pistachio milk cake. It makes a lovely, light dessert or midday treat. Another pastry-specific highlight is their bee bites. It looks like a bubble waffle but is a toasted bread with cream cheese and honey. They are busy pretty much at all times of day and on the weekends especially. Morning coffee, early afternoon, and even late at night with large groups hanging out and enjoying coffee. Haraz is a chain/franchise, but they know what they're doing to make it feel local and like something special. They employees are always polite, patient, and helpful.

The coffee was good, and the interior is beautiful, but the croissant was extremely disappointing. It had very little filling, and what little was there barely tasted like almond. I might stop in again if I happened to be in the neighborhood, but otherwise, there wasn't anything particularly memorable about the experience beyond the lovely space.

From the moment…read moreyou walk in, the warm, welcoming vibe just wraps around you like your favorite cozy sweater. The staff are genuinely some of the friendliest people I've ever encountered at a coffee shop -- they remember your name, your order, and somehow always make you feel like the most important person in the room. The coffee? Next level. Whether you're a straight-black-espresso purist or someone who loves a beautifully crafted latte with stunning latte art, De Clue delivers every single time. The beans are clearly sourced with care, and you can taste the quality in every sip. My go-to has become their seasonal special, and I look forward to it every single visit. The space itself is absolutely charming -- perfect for catching up with a friend, grinding through some work, or just enjoying a quiet moment to yourself. It has this rare quality of feeling both lively and relaxed at the same time. De Clue Coffee isn't just a coffee shop -- it's a community. It's the kind of place that makes living in Fairfax feel extra special. Don't walk, RUN to De Clue. You will not regret it!

    Absolutely amazing. I ordered the spiced Demerara latte which was soo good. Great balanced drink…read morebetween syrup and espresso. I usually like my coffee on the sweeter side but I really didn't need to add anything extra, probably because the espresso is also so smooth and delicious. Also got the cinnamon coffee muffin which was really good and dense. The girl who took my order was extremely sweet and just had great vibes and just offered super great service. Wish I got her name to shoot her out! WILL be coming back. This place was also very quiet when I came in and seems like a pretty good space to get work done and also they had lots of seating inside.

    FOOD/DRINK: 4/5 SERVICE: 5/5…read moreEXPERIENCE: 4/5 I came here after a doctor's appointment to try to wait out the rain and get caffeinated after hearing so much about this place. The barista helped us out with any questions and was very kind. It was super cozy. The seating was extremely comfortable and I can see myself being here for a while. There was some cute merch too. The place was decorated with colorful posters of the outdoors, which followed the decor of what was in the rock climbing gym upstairs. Speaking of upstairs, you have to use the rock climbing gym's bathroom and the elevator was out of order. It wasn't a short jaunt either to go up the stairs (lol) so this was a bit inconvenient, which made us have to leave earlier than we wanted to. My husband is disabled and it would be difficult for him to use the bathroom upstairs without the elevator working - and there was no ETA on when it'd get fixed. This is an ADA violation to not have an accessible bathroom. FOOD/DRINK: They do have snacks and food to purchase but I did not get some this time around. I got the house special of an iced spiced demerara latte with oatmilk (rich, brown sugar, cinnamon syrup) - it was delightful and delicious. Just the right balance. Hubby got cherry lime espresso fizz (on the summer specials menu). He enjoyed it but I didn't particularly like it (too bitter imho). I couldn't see what brand coffee they used, which I like to know since there are certain brands that bother me. But this place didn't bother me. They do have non-dairy/alternative milk. I would come again if I were in the area but I wouldn't really seek it out. I've had better coffee but I've also had worse. Not sure if the hype lived up.
