I heard about this place and so finally decided to stop in. It was not busy so I asked for a 16oz dark roast drip with milk. They did not put milk in it and they did not give me a sleeve for the hot coffee. On top of that the coffee is just not good so I would easily just avoid this place for coffee and get your coffee somewhere else. read more

Started in D.C., La Coop's second location is in a strip mall in Arlington. It's a cozy cafe with outdoor and indoor seating. With a full coffee menu, their beans come from their farm in Guatemala. The brew specialty lattes and more. They have pastries like cheese danishes, muffins and more. Their regular latte was strong and tasty! The cheese danishes had great flavor but was a little too dry for my liking. read more

Solid coffee shop for no frills orders. I visit La Coop every so often - whenever I get bored of my regular coffee shop - and I'm always pleased with the service and my order. I stick to a regular latte and their egg and cheese biscuit (The Kennedy, I believe). The biscuit is simple but pretty good if you need something quick and filling for breakfast. The latte is usually a good mix of espresso and milk, so no complaints there. Once I tried their horchata latte and was not too impressed, which is why I get the regular latte now. Sometimes when I'm lucky, they still have the blueberry donut and that is a must for me. So delicious! The staff is always friendly and welcoming. And the space is so colorful, which is always a plus for me. It puts a smile on my face. Worth giving them a try! read more

Very adorable inside, it would be a cute place to do work at. The prices are very affordable which is a win. I tried the Dirty Horchata, and it was good. I love Horchata, and this blend was nothing like I have had before. I want to try it again and add some creamer in it or if they have whip cream, I think that would be good. The staff were very friendly, and they have a lot of delicious sounding drinks on the menu, as well as donuts. I will for sure be back. read more

Stopped by for a Dirty Horchata, and it was not bad! I saw that it came with a shot of Cold Brew Concentrate online so I asked an employee if it was that or espresso. It comes with espresso, not cold brew. I did like the espresso taste with the milk, however, the horchata flavor was too subtle. It needs a bit more cinnamon, rice, and/or vanilla taste to it. read more

This is very cool small little place in Arlington. It has the International look to it. The setting was wonderful. The food is was pretty good, but I need to try everything. I like the seating outside. You don't expect from this location to look at the way it looks inside it is so pretty. The staff is the best most of the coffee shop you go to it has the smoothness not happy to take care of customer but these guys enjoy what they enjoy being there. It has two different type of customers or more than that I feel like a retired people in the neighborhood, Neighbourhood and new mothers into the Neighbourhood so you should really try it if you are in Virginia or Inn Arlington area. read more

Really great coffee shop! Stumbled across this place when Hutton the nearby Trader Joe's. Plenty of parking, it's in a strip mall. Very cute decor. They had a food menu but I only grabbed coffee - an iced oat milk latte. I'd say it was good, not the best I've ever had (Tatte, blue bottle and Northside social are my top 3!) Service was quick and friendly. There is a decent amount of seating if you wanted to dine in. read more

Small but bright and airy coffee shop with very friendly baristas Limited indoor and outdoor seating Have an assortment of pastries and a few hot items for food as well. I tried an apple fritter, breakfast sandwich, and a dirty horchata latte. Everything was subpar, especially the latte which was straight-up undrinkable as it had WAY too much cinnamon. I ended up having to throw it away Oddly have a solid selection of Nightingale Ice Cream Bars however, which is a plus read more

We were visiting from out of town. Decided to go before my son's baseball Championship Game!!! ( which they won!) So glad we did! 5 Star rating from me! We are very spoiled with Norfolk Coffee and Tea in our area! So it certainly was a treat to find the quality I was looking for! read more

Stopped by La Coop after seeing good reviews and that it was close by to where I live. The interior is nice with some spots to sit down to enjoy the food and drinks. They also roast their own beans here, so if you are looking for a new local roaster to check out, La Coop may be a good option. I got their HORCHATA LATTE (6.00 for 16 oz, I think) which is their signature drink. I liked that it wasn't too sweet (even though the horchata is made with condensed milk) and it was full of cinnamon flavor. The espresso was a nice touch with it, but I would have preferred it a bit stronger. Overall, I enjoyed this a lot and it's definitely a unique drink in this area. They also have pastries and a lot of food options (like sandwiches and also some breakfast options). La Coop would be a nice cafe to stop by for a quick lunch or a casual meet up spot with some friends. read more

Solid coffee, easy location right off of 50, the shop isn't huge but there is some seating inside and out. Some pastries (croissants etc) are from fresh baguette, the rest they make in house. Ordered a cruller but would skip this in the future - it was overly sweet and the texture was one dimensional. But the coffee is good. espresso drinks were well made, the current pumpkin latte is tasty. read more

The ambiance of this coffee shop is soooo stellar and cute!! Service was great and fast, even with a line. I tried the horchata coffee which I wasn't the biggest fan of - I'm not exactly sure why to be honest. I will definitely return to try something else! Another wish I had - it is not great for a gluten free person - I would suggest that La Coop consider gluten free bread and/or pastry options! read more

Was looking for a place that served matcha and found this hidden gem. There was no line so I was able to order and receive my drink right away. The staff told me the matcha was in sweetened and offered to add syrup (which I did, just a simple syrup they had plenty of options to choose from.) the matcha was exactly what I was looking for. The interior aesthetic was beautiful and very functional design throughout the small space. read more

Coffee Shop No. 427 La Coop Coffee Arlington, VA October 6, 2024 La Coop Coffee in Washington, D.C. has always been on my coffee radar, but my trips into the city never quite took me to La Coop's door. When I found out they opened a shop in Arlington I made sure the next time I was there I planned to visit La Coop. La Coop Coffee in Arlington is absolutely stunning. The moment you open the door you are welcomed to bright natural light and colorful decor. The barista was friendly, greeted me instantly and made a delicious cortado. I sat at the window, watched folks stroll be, sipped on my cortado, and enjoyed the moment I was blessed to be in. read more

Delish!! Awesome!! Very nice service. I was trying to figure out what to get and asked what was popular and the gentleman working the espresso bar suggested the Dirty Horchata. He even offered me a sample! So I got it. The Iced Dirty Horchata is a sweetened rice milk beverage with cinammon, with a shot of espresso poured on top. Yummy. Very nice decor and ambiance. Great service. They have cozy indoor seating and a nice patio outside as well. read more

Stopped in for their breakfast sandwich and iced mocha. The sandwich was average; cheddar, ham, egg on a croissant type biscuit. The mocha was pretty good, I felt it could be slightly stronger on the coffee. The inside is super trendy. There are 2 bathrooms but accessible. The employees were nice enough, not super conversational. Overall, this is an average coffee shop, I would stop in an get a coffee again but maybe pass on the food. $15 for a 16oz coffee and breakfast sandwich. There is indoor and outdoor seating as well! read more

La Coop redefines local coffee shops, with an elegance and intimacy we will see for years to come. I was really excited to come in and sit down with a cup of Horchata with a shot of espresso. The place felt very picturesque without the overcrowded feel. They have plenty of pastries and other snacks to try. Unfortunately they did not have any gluten free items. The staff was really nice and helpful with my allergies. They were able to answer questions about the ingredients in there drinks and pastries. It was our first time trying the dirty horchata and we absolutely loved it. What a new treat, and I recommend others to try it as well. We took our photos, then took our drinks and sat outside. There is plenty of seating if your looking for a coffee date, or study place, this spot is the place to go. read more

It was alright bacon was under cooked terribly I had to throw it out, horchata coffee taste nothing like horchata

The coffee here is average. But the service is extremely poor. I went there today to get a coffee and work on my computer for a little bit. I got ignored at the counter, so I decided to sit down and wait. But then I was ignored there too by staff that didn't seem like they had anything else to do what a joke of a place. I just walked out and went to Gute Leute Café 0.8 miles away. Was served immediately. The coffee here is also much better. Parking is a little bit more difficult. Safe to say, I am not going back to Le Cook. read more

Great spot for a cup of coffee in the Arlington area! It's a little bit out of the way from a metro line but worth going to at least once. I like their iced vanilla latte and service is usually quick. read more

La Coop Coffee just recently opened up at the Arlington Forest Shopping Center. They are a family -owned and -operated that started off in Union Cantinil, Huehuetenango, Guatemala, which ended up in the D.C. area! Their menu offers both hot and cold drinks, and a simple food menu that includes bagelitos, breakfast sandwiches, oatmeal, empanadas, pizzas, and burritos. I had their Dirty Horchata, extra hot - I wished this drink was a bit more stronger and had more of the horchata taste; I also wish that they had served it super hot, as requested. Service was friendly, and the place is super clean and well-decorated. Plenty of parking in the plaza. +friendly service +located in the Arlington Forest Shopping Center +plenty of parking in the shared plaza lot read more

Matcha isn't good quality, the color/flavor are off. The drinks are served in paper to go cups.

Cute place but skip the hot chocolate. For $6+ (much more $$$ than the coffee!) it should be real chocolate but instead they use the grocery store powdered stuff. They should do better. read more

Deliciousness 1/5 Happiness 3/5 La Coop provides a welcoming atmosphere. While fashionably decorated, the space is a bit too small - with plenty of patrons needing to huddle outside in the cold weather. First, I got my usual go-to - a mocha. I prefer a mocha that is heavier on chocolate than coffee, but I've certainly drank my fair share of mochas balanced the other way. This mocha though was simply awful. It had virtually no chocolate whatsoever and the espresso was watered down. It really tasted like they poured a shot into a cup of boiling water. I couldn't finish it, which is extremely rare for me! I also went to order some breakfast items, but they were out of most of the non-pastry options - very bizarre by 9:00 on a Sunday. The service was also very slow, with a hefty line of people waiting to order. Unfortunately, there was nothing beyond the warm atmosphere I can recommend for La Coop. read more

Neat, little coffee shop. I was looking around for other places to try and their dirty horchata caught my attention. Gave that a try and also picked up a cheese danish. Very nice staff and they got the order together super-fast. The coffee was good, though I'd have liked a little more of a sweet and rice-y kick. The cheese danish was delicious; lots of cheese and a nice, chewy pastry. read more

This is a beautiful local coffee shop in Arlington! The staff is very friendly. It's great to catch up with a friend, enjoy a book or get some work done. Yes it is a bit small, but they have an decent amount of indoor and outdoor seating available. I arrived at about 12:30/12:45 pm and I was a bit surprised and disappointed to see most of the pastries unavailable. I ordered an egg and cheese croissant and an iced coffee. The coffee was good, however the croissant had a weird aftertaste. I had asked for no bacon and I felt like maybe it had been pre-made and the bacon was taken off before warming it up, but I am not sure. I think one major problem is that there are not any visible outlets if people are working and need to charge their laptop or something. The barista did offer to plug it in behind the counter if I sat on the barstool which was nice but I didn't want to sit on the barstools so. There are two bathrooms, which were exceptionally clean. Overall, I would come back... but I would try to come earlier in the day so I can hopefully try one of their pastries. I don't think I would order the sandwich again though. read more

We saw an Instagram reel about this place and decided to come check it out. This location had a VERY noticeable fruit fly problem...not a very appetizing environment / honestly really grossed me out. It was bad enough to warrant a low review despite the coffee and sandwiches tasting fine. We were sitting at the bar area by the window and I noticed several fruit flies flying around and the bodies of several that other patrons had already smacked on the table (yuck). That and the trash area with the stevia packets was also absolutely swimming with them. The dirty horchata and breakfast biscuit sandwich were great. The iced matcha latte was lacking in matcha flavor (honestly just tasted like milk) and the Italian sandwich was good, but the base is just ham - I wish it could've had salami to make it more idk Italian tasting? read more

I like the coffee and bakery , its a small cafe but the decor is so classy and elegant

We went on a Monday morning, 9:30am. I got medium drip, it had fruity notes as expected from Guatemalan coffee and I usually take my coffee with sugar but ended up only wanting creamer. Based on other reviews I wasn't entirely confident in ordering an espresso drink but my husband got the dirty horchata iced with espresso and it was delicious! The barista told me that the dirty horchata is different hot vs iced in that (if I remember correctly) the iced typically has coffee concentrate and the hot has espresso. She personally likes dirty horchata iced with espresso so that's what she made for my husband. Friendly, helpful baristas, would come back, I hope this place thrives. read more
