Very high quality coffee, and if not mistaken, slightly less than Starbucks. Just had the Christmas blend which was tasty, as was their croissant. The mocha frap is the best though, but todays cold changed that. Very friendly staff. They also are quite efficient. They'll have your order to you in no time. I like relaxing here in one of the comfortable chairs. These are better than the tables. Parking usually is a cinch, and I've enjoyed several books here kicking back. Escaping the insanity this area can be, can be therapeutic and a recharge.

I bought two of them -- the first one honestly tasted so bad that i immediately spat it out while driving. i don't even know how to describe the flavor - it tasted like throw up. i was really hesitant to try the second one but got my niece to take the first bite LOL . thankfully, the second mochi tasted super scrumptious. super chewy, chocolatey, and actually really good. i genuinely don't know why the first one tasted so off compared to the second.. *trigger warning* photo of the spat out chocolate on my car

This time, I ordered the turkey Havarti sandwich, which is always very, very good. It comes with turkey, Havarti cheese, an avocado spread, and what I believe is ciabatta bread. It's simple, fresh, and really well done. The price makes it even better. For $6, you get a solid, filling sandwich plus a bag of chips, which is hard to beat. Everything tastes fresh and well put together. The shop itself is clean, festive, and very cute. It has such a cozy atmosphere, and it's one of my favorite places to study--I'm here at least twice a week. Overall, it's a great spot with great food, great service, and a welcoming environment that keeps me coming back.

This morning I saw a "coffee" sign in the retail complex I was in - in Fairfax Station - so I went in to grab some more caffeine after breakfast - turns out it is a "29th Parallel Coffee." Apparently the location that used to be in Fairfax City - up and relocated to Fairfax Station - since my original 2015 review is attached to this business listing. It feels smaller on the inside compared to the previous location. I ordered a large cold brew with Half n' Half. I guess they were out of translucent cups - as the cold brew was served up in a paper cup. There is are a few small tables inside, and free WiFi for those needing to do some work. Cold brew was pretty good overall. Paid with Apple Pay. #29thParallelCoffee

I ordered an almond milk latte and the avocado toast without feta. The avocado toast was SO good, the avocado tasted really fresh and they used the perfect amount of balsamic vinegar. Also loved that they had packets of hot sauce available. My son got a bagel with cream cheese and my partner got a bagel with butter and jam plus a chai latte. Only note is that the bagel came with a ton of cream cheese, so if you don't like it piled on, I'd recommend asking for light cream cheese. Overall we really loved it and would definitely come back when we're in the area again!

The decor makes you think of what you'd find at an eccentric great aunt's home, but in a positive way. Each area has its own mini aesthetic that contributes to the entire place; in the back are color themed books that give it a more serious look, while upstairs is more whimsical in it's random assortment of chairs and couches. 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!

I was very impressed with their extensive menu and offerings. I had the Italian cold cut sandwich, blackberry lemonade, and salted caramel brownie. The sandwich was a 10. There's an art to how to make a sandwich, how it's layered and put together, the staff here know what they are doing. It was the perfect size, and tasted amazing. The blackberry lemonade was perfect. Not many places offer a blackberry option, so that get extra points. The salted Carmel brownie was inhaled...so yea it was awesome as well . The staff was friendly and helpful, and gave me enough time to select my lunch. Thanks for the excellent experience today.

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!

I got the hazelnut gelato, and the flavor itself was decent, but the texture really missed the mark. They advertise it as gelato, but it didn't have that stretchy, smooth consistency real gelato should have. It was more like regular ice cream with lumps instead of that silky texture. Service was good and environment was clean but the gelato... The taste was still good enough to save it from a 2-star rating, but texturally, it just wasn't what I expected. For comparison, Patango Gelato is a true 10/10 -- perfectly smooth, stretchy, and consistently amazing. D'Ambrosio's isn't bad, just not the authentic gelato experience it's advertised to be.
