Lily's is a must‑visit. I walked in wanting a quick ice cream and ended up having one of the best food surprises of my week. Their smoked salmon sandwich is perfection -- fresh, balanced, and full of flavor. The ambiance (hello, soft jazz and warm colors!) makes you feel instantly relaxed. But the real magic is the staff ( M and Soko). Their attention to detail and genuine care turned my tired Friday into a moment worth remembering. If you're anywhere near town, go. Don't think twice. read more

Lily's Chocolate & Coffee is family owned with 2 locations, known for their delicious lokmas, high quality desserts, and Instagram aesthetic. This cafe is located in Vienna, and there's plenty of free slanted parking in front as well as parking in the complex next to and across if you're willing to walk. I've been to this location when it first opened years ago and they've really upped their menu and decorations inside since. The ambiance inside is beautiful, ideal for anyone looking for a good Instagram picture. There's so many angles and details so that no matter where you're sitting, there's a good vibe. There's also gorgeous seating outside since it can get crowded. For food, you order from the front and they'll call you when the food is ready. We ordered the dubai gelato and pistachio lokmas. Both were presented tastefully to make sure our eyes and cameras wanted to eat before our stomachs. The dubai gelato was a quality dessert with a good ratio of milk: cream. The pistachio flavor was evident on top, but it was just a kinda tart vanilla ice cream with toppings. I did like it, however, and it paired well with the lokmas. The lokmas were fried to perfection, a nice amount of chewy, and covered with a good ratio of pistachio cream. They were a decent size and conducive to sharing. The prices of everything, overall, was pretty expensive, but the quality definitely made up for it. I'd recommend this cafe to someone looking for a unique sweet treat, catching up with a group of girl friends of 2-4 people, or for a first date! read more

I swear I left a review about a year ago for the same Dubai strawberries-- maybe it was on a different app. LAST YEAR: amazing. Amazing service and the strawberries were perfection and saucy and yum. TONIGHT ugh. The stars are for the delightful service (every employee I've encountered there has been lovely). Tonight I went to order the Dubai strawberries-- very UNcheap-- and I glanced into the glass box with the berries. It was foggy and whatever. So I ordered. I waited. I was serviced PRE-PREPARED strawberries! Terrible! So, I didn't notice that the berries were already prepared (foggy glass). And I took them home without noticing, because covered in kataifi and crushed pistachio. And wow. Disappointment. Deeeeeeply unenjoyable. Had I noticed they were already made, no way. I've seen them like that at Bakery Museum and I absolutely will not purchase. I'm sorry I don't have proof of the excellent berries I was served last year. But I don't have a need to go back again. Whomp. read more

Lily's Chocolate & Coffee is definitely a cute spot, especially if you're going for the aesthetic. I tried their afternoon tea, which comes with a selection of sandwiches and pastries. While everything looked beautiful, it honestly didn't feel worth the price. The tea itself was decent, nothing too memorable, but still enjoyable. I haven't tried their lokma yet, but it looks amazing and is probably what I'd go back for. The staff were very sweet and welcoming, which made the experience better overall. The space is on the smaller side, so I'd recommend making a reservation if you plan to dine in. Parking is also a bit limited, so it's something to keep in mind before going. read more

I walked into Lily's skeptical, but left impressed. It's a small cafe that looks built for Instagram. There are little sayings on the walls and lots of over-the-top decoration for that Instagrammable moment. None of that is for me, BUT their menu is strong. Being a chocolate fan, I ordered their Belgian hot chocolate and wow! It comes with melted chocolate on the sides. It's delicious! It's not watered down or weak- among the best I've had in the D.C. area. Staff are friendly and quick. read more

Stopped in one day after running some errands to try a little treat. The shop is cutesy and very instagrammable (LOL). they had limited sweets/treats but had a lot of drink options. I dropped by in the middle of the day, so they didn't have a lot of people in there. There was only one person making drinks and serving at the front end; I'm unsure if they had anybody in the back. The one staff that was waiting on customers was patient and friendly; I appreciated that I didn't feel rushed to make any type of order when I wasn't ready. I just ordered a strawberry banana. The smoothie was okay; it didn't really stand out to me when compared to other cafes and juice shops that offer smoothies. I would like to stop by another time to actually try a pastry or 2 when the mood strikes. read more

What an adorable spot! We came here for lattes and sweet treats and it was SO GOOD! the staff here is so wonderful. That is always a big plus for me. The ambiance is adorable. I love all the pink, rose gold and floral accents. So chic and girly! The cups everything was served in were so cute too. Pistachio lattes, chai teas and matchas were all very good! The Dubai chocolate strawberries, lockmas and crepe were all so so so yummy! This is the perfect spot for a catchup with friends or a date night. Can't wait to go back!!! read more

Came for one thing only ! The Dubai strawberry chocolates! Busy on a Sunday , But since going viral I knew what I was getting into , parking isn't the greatest but can park across the street and walk over , I think I paid around closer to 17 bucks for it , the wait took a while , not enough space to move around but overall the vibe of the place was cool. Service was attentive . read more

It's ok. Mostly drinks, limited sweets. I stopped in for a cup of hot chocolate. Disappointed. Too much milk, overly whipped, and not enough chocolate. There is no "no tip" option you have to press skip. It's walkup so the tip is wholly unnecessary. It's a modest space with nice tables and chairs if you want a coffee spot. Cocoa leaves much to be desired but otherwise a nice little cafe. read more

Stopped in for dessert on a Saturday evening. The service was quick though it was a bit disorganized on who was in a line vs who was waiting for their number to be called out. We split the Dubai chocolate covered strawberries and got white chocolate lockma for later. The Dubai chocolate covered strawberries were delicious! We opted for the dark chocolate instead of milk, and I only wish it had more pistachio cream. Given the $20 price tag I wouldn't get it again. The lockma was very rich and delicious, though I didn't realize it came with Oreos until we were already home (thought it was just white chocolate!). We found free street parking a block away, not as bad as expected on a beautiful Saturday evening. The location is great, in Old Town Alexandria. Very cute interior. read more

Deffinitely an instagrammable place for influencers or just to have girls date! Place is themed with pink and cute wall quotes and decorations. We decided to stop by and visit here because of the lokma, I wanted to try and see what it is. To me, it's like fried dough with sauce on top and you can choose your sauce flavor.Got 4 different flavors to try and my favorite is the one with strawberries because I think it mellow out the sweetness. In my opinion, it is a nice little sweet treat. It can be messy when eating though! Presentation are pretty, size are perfect for 1 or 2 people to share. Will be coming back here for photos soon! read more

I stopped into Lily's chocolate to try the viral chocolate covered strawberries. I also got an order of the lockma. I have to say that I enjoyed the lockma more than the strawberries. You can choose what kind of chocolate to get for the strawberries. I went with the milk chocolate. I was expecting the chocolate to be more of a liquid consistency but the chocolate was more hardened than I expected. The consistency just made it a little harder to eat. The lockma was delicious. Think of a fried dough with a chocolate drizzle of your choice. I went with the biscoff drizzle and it was so delicious. I like how you can also customize your order of lockmas depending on how many you buy. I have not tried their drinks out but I would imagine that they are delicious as well. read more

Despite the line on a Saturday, we were able to order quickly & only waited 5 minutes for our one order. Most of the tables were full, but the table we were able to get wasn't cleaned off, so we had to ask for paper towels & clean it ourselves. We only ordered the Dubai Chocolate-Covered Strawberries. It was really delicious! The chocolate was rich, the strawberries were sweet & the pistachios gave it the crunchy texture it needed! We'll be back to try other special items! read more

Lily's Chocolate is a charming spot for a date or a place to enjoy desserts with friends. The decor is beautiful, and the lighting is perfect for taking pictures. The shop is right off the highway, so parking can be challenging, and seating may be limited, depending on the time of day. The service is standard, but the staff is efficient at getting orders out quickly. During this visit, we ordered the chocolate-covered strawberries, Bischoff Lakma (6 pieces), and Fruit Lakma (6 pieces, with a substitution of strawberry white chocolate instead of the milk chocolate). I only tried the lakma, but my friends really enjoyed the chocolate-covered strawberries. The lakma was pretty good (it's like donut balls) --it's not overly sweet, making it a nice treat after a hearty meal. In my opinion, Lily's chocolates are on the pricier side. A small order of lakma (6 pieces) came to around $18 after tax and tip. However, for a special occasion, it could be worth the price. read more

Lily's Chocolate & Coffee is a great place to visit if you're looking for a sweet treat or just a brief caffeine break. Parking is limited unless you park at another spot, it's kind of small but there's a lot of character to this place. Walking in everything is decorated all in pink. It's cute, pretty, and also very instagrammable. People know that this place is viral for these reasons but is it worth the visit? Absolutely! The store has a lot of options for drinks but they also specialize in lockmas and other interesting things like high/afternoon tea! You'd need to reserve them in advance for special occasions for tea however. I got the vanilla latte and biscoff lockma (5 pieces). The vanilla latte was just right with the amount of vanilla and coffee to drink. I am also pleased that there's also latte art too! The Biscoff Lockma is the star of the show here; I have never tried it until now and it convinced me that I need to buy more for my next visit. Lockma is a fried donut with toppings depending on what you get. It's honestly something I will eat even if it's not diet friendly. I love it! It can be busy if you go at later hours, but this is a place worth checking out! read more

I wanted to try this place for so long and finally had the opportunity to come by. Right off the bat, there was already an issue with parking. There was only a few spots that is right in front of the building. I am not sure if there are any in the back because i was able to park in the front. The parking is right off a main road so it is quite precarious to pull in and out of parking. Walking to the entrance; I was taken back by the fake grass that was put down by the front and patio area. I can imagine where they were going for but it cheapens the look in my opinion. Walking in; I was not greeted nor recommended on what to order. I felt rushed to order something as there was a growing line behind me. I settled for the strawberries covered milk chocolate. It was $11.95 for a relatively small cup with about 6 or 7 strawberries but a generous amount of chocolate. The strawberries were not the freshest as the texture was soft and some spots were mushy. I don't think it was worth the price at all. The positive for me were the cute decorations and vibes here. It has cute pink furniture with a flower wall that makes it a Instagrammable spot. But other than that; the lack of service, mediocre dessert, and difficult parking makes this spot a one time visit for me. read more

My friend and I visited Lily's and really loved the Dubai chocolate covered strawberries. They were delicious. The person behind the counter was also warm and friendly. They answered our questions and gave us recommendations. We recommend this place if you have a sweet tooth! read more

If I could, I would give them 3.8. They were super nice and sweet. Friendly. It's great way for friends, girls, dates, and Arabic community to come together. I love how the theme is all pink and how much work they put in to the store. They specialize in this Iraqi dessert called Lokma, which is covered with Belgium chocolate.They also do afternoon tea. I have tried neither but I can only speak to their coffee. I got the honey lavender latte is why I'm giving them 3 stars. It would have been 2 because it was watered down and I couldn't taste the lavender syrup. It needs to be more sweet. But give them still a try for their food. read more

This was my first visit to Lily's Chocolate, and I highly recommend the Dubai Chocolate Bar, but not the Strawberry Chocolate Cup. The large Dubai Chocolate Bar, priced at $20, is worth every penny. I bought one a week ago and I'm eating at it day by day; keeping it in the fridge has kept it fresh and delicious still. My only complaint is that the kataifi pastry is a bit over-toasted and tough. Still, I would definitely purchase it again. On the other hand, I found the chocolate strawberry cup quite disappointing. The place was cold, and by the time we sat down, the chocolate had already hardened, it wasnt worth $10. read more

This was spot #3.5 of 4...another slight detour from the coffee marathon for me & fellow Yelper, HeideAnn. This little chocolate and coffee shop is an Instagramer's (or any social media user's) dream! The entire place is just covered in pink with splashes of gold. Almost every side/angle of this place is perfect for photo ops. While I was there, I remembered that my friend and I were bookmarking this place for our next afternoon tea a couple years ago. I dunno how, but I forgot that I wanted to try the lockmas :( The afternoon tea is priced at $48...might be a little to pricey for us. I didn't inquire what it includes, but looks like the basics: tea kettle, finger sandwiches, pastries, etc. They sell the infamous Dubai chocolate in case anyone wants to try it! There is very limited parking directly in front of the building, shared by other businesses. There may be more parking available behind the building, but we didn't check. Would I return? originally I thought I wouldn't, but after I remembered the lockmas......I need to come back to try them. read more

Sooooo good! My husband is a big fan of pistachio and chocolate so we decided to go try this place. The hardest part is making a decision on what to order. We went with the special Dubai chocolate bar and it did not disappoint. They ran out of small boxes so we had to get a large which honestly was not an issue for us but it is very large and decadent so make sure you come with an appetite. The ingredients are so good and it was insanely delicious. The café is small so you may have to wait on seating but they do have a few tables in front (outside) which make it easier. read more

Lily’s Chocolate & Coffee - Dubai chocolate bar (pistachio) - Desserts Near Me - Vienna, Virginia

Finally was able to get my hands on the viral Dubai chocolate bar which is filled with Pistachio cream Kunafe. It did not disappoint. Totally see the hype. I got the large size and I would highly recommend it. The bar itself is huggggge and the filling is abundant. The lady behind the counter was super sweet. She recommended the 'dark chocolate' option instead of milk chocolate. I am glad I went with it. So if you are interested... get the large size with dark chocolate. You won't regret it :) There is no preorder needed. I just called to check if it was available to pick up and i showed up 20 mins later on a Saturday evening. And ofcourse this place is super cute. I will be sure to go back when I am in the area. Would love to try the strawberries, afternoon tea and other options as well. read more

Cute tea/coffee and pastry shop, perfect for a group of girlfriends! It's pretty cozy inside and can get pretty crowded especially when there are large parties for baby showers. My girlfriends and I sat in a tiny corner until the party cleared out an hour later. If you have a large party, definitely make a reservation if you can or be prepared to wait! I LOVE the cute and scrumptious lockma donuts. They are like premium, adorably decorated munchkins. The Pistachio filled with chocolate with my favorite, closely followed by the Date with sesame seeds and then the Biscoff cinnamon lockma donuts. I really appreciate how you can mix and match different flavors. Will have to try the Nutella - next time! Get the frozen hot chocolate if you're looking for something sweet! I wasn't a fan of the Cafe Mocha Latte, it was super bitter as the chocolate was drizzled on the side of the cup and not blended in the coffee. The staff patiently and mildly begrudgingly let me swap it out with the frozen hot chocolate, which was the superior choice! I might come back and take my daughter to munch on some scrumptious lockma donuts! read more

But I wouldn't come back since the coffee was not good at all and slightly overpriced. read more

Sweets treats worth trying. My friend and I love the chocolate covered strawberries they're a good balance of sweet and refreshing.

Strawberries and milk chocolate was delicious. I do wish the ratio of chocolate to pistachio filling was a bit better for the Dubai chocolate- a thicker chocolate coating as others had said would be better. The white chocolate, Biscoff, and pistachio flavors of Lokma were delicious. I did not think I would like the pistachio flavor, but I got it due to others recommendations and I liked it! They seemed cold on the phone, but upon arrival they were very warm. Inside is very pink and floral. Food came out somewhat quickly, i will say the chocolate bar came out slightly cold like it was being stored in a refrigerator. After bringing the leftovers of the bar home and consuming it that night it was much softer and tasted much better as the texture has improved. Hot chocolate was nasty. I would definitely come again! read more

Such an adorable dessert shop! Definitely worth a shot to try out some of their items! Interior is bubbling in pink and has such cute sofa-chairs! Service was quick and kind! Afternoon tea set - must have a reservation! I got to try their Afternoon Tea Set - it's pretty aesthetic! However, would not recommend if you're in it for the food LOL My friend and I only got it for the gram. The tea was bland / bitter and the pastries were dry and mediocre. The Tuna sandwich was the only item I liked out of it~ Their DUBAI CHOCOLATE however, is DELICIOUS. They have the medium size - which has the perfect mixture and the large - but i think the large has too much chocolate as i like the filling and crunch more! Best tasting when it is refrigerated / cold! Overall 7/10 would come back for the chocolate! read more
