Tous le Jours My…read moregirlfriend and I needed to cool, so we stepped inside. She got a large, iced strawberry latte, made with real strawberry. I ordered a small, iced pistachio latte. Both had oat milk and were creamy and delicious. I think we drank them down in seconds. I also purchased a chocolate avalanche pastry. Since it's a French bakery, I had expected the pastry to be rich in chocolate and not sweet. Instead, it was the opposite. I'm not sure how the other dessert-based pastries are but I'm leery now. The person who took our order wasn't pleasant by any means, but I gave a tip anyway in case they were just overwhelmed and didn't feel like being welcoming. The interior is spacious with plenty of seating with some seating outdoors. The only issue with the environment is that there was a high whistle that filled the entire establishment. That inspired us to leave sooner than expected. Our greatest disappointment was to see that with all of their plastic cups that they did not have any recycling bins.

So awesome and intimate and it's most importantly a small business, so no matter what you need to go. Took a pit stop on the way north and this is the perfect spot to get ready for more driving not because of the coffee (even tho it's supreme), but the people. You want syrups made in house? You got it. You want amazing coffee? You got it. You want an amazing experience with people who actually care if you're getting what you exactly want. You better beleive.......you got it. (Ugh that's a song right?) You need more evidence? The owner was there in the trenches with a smile on her face working hard everyone was happy. Highly recommend

Also, the service is lovely, and helpful!

The staff have always been incredibly friendly too, which just adds to the vibe. I love this place.

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.

My husband has just gone inside to see if there will ever be a server. Update: the server eventually showed up, took our order, and dropped it off. I think not having a server was better than the food and drinks that were delivered. The "mimosa" (didn't even go for bottomless, so this is even more disappointing) was just orange juice. Check the color in the photo. $10ish for a glass of orange juice hurts my soul. Also, the pizza was soggier than my armpits on a summer day in Louisiana. But wait, there's more! We tried to get a glass of prosecco so I could mix it with my orange juice. My husband wound up going inside, ordering it and paying for it at the bar, all because the server was (once again) missing! Absolutely wild that it's faster to bypass the server when you have a table, and the place isn't even busy. Two stars because we were here another time and the server wasn't dreadful that time.

La Poteria was the perfect midpoint to grab our morning caffeine fix and a bite to eat before we hit the Harpers Ferry hiking trails. The cafe was beautifully decorated with marble tables, a ton of plants, and plenty of couches and cozy armchairs. There was a ton of natural light from the giant windows, but they also had a number of aesthetic hanging lights, some of which were exposed bulbs and others of which were in little wicker baskets. As far as the food and drink goes, I loved their latte. The coffee was rich and not overly acidic, and it was strong enough that you could still appreciate the chocolatey, nutty undertones under the generous helping of steamed milk and foam. I also loved the little heart sprinkle they added in the center of the mug -- such a cute final touch! My friend and I also split two of their savory items, the cheese arepa and spinach and feta empanada. The empanada was a little different than what I was used to, as it was super flaky and buttery, with an almost croissant or puff pastry-like dough. It was delicious and the savory feta went wonderfully with the spinach and the slightly peppery mayo-based sauce they served it with. The arepa was also lovely, with a generous helping of gooey melted cheese on top of the slightly chewy, slightly sweet corn-based flatbread.

Not only is the Matcha extremely aesthetically pleasing when you pick it up, but it's also not hard to mix like everywhere else. The strawberry purée mixes in perfectly with the rest of the drink. You don't have to shake it up like crazy or spoon it to actually mix everything. It's also extremely balanced. It's not too hard on the strawberry, nor is it too much with the Matcha - perfect blend! If you love matcha - go now!

Each time my drink was good, the espresso flavor was fine, it had a smooth bold flavor and the temperature was perfect. While my drink was good, I do feel that the $9.00 paid for a medium drink that was about the size of the Starbucks "tall" drink was a bit excessive. They charged an additional $1.00 for whipped cream?? An additional $1.00 for sugar free vanilla?? The portion size wasn't worth $9.00. I may not visit anytime soon and if I do I won't order an espresso drink. It's not worth the price. The interior appeared clean and the staff was professional enough.
