Stopped by after picking up a salad next door! You could smell the delicious coffee in the air! So I had to stop by... Perfect afternoon pick me up after a much needed day of a little self care. Was greeting and welcomed promptly. I ordered a vanilla latte with cinnamon and Oat milk and an extra shot of espresso! Also going to try a delicious almond croissant after my workout! Wish there was a closer location to me...I love a good coffee shop! Happy Yelping! read more

Great coffee shop with a nice vibe and decor. We ordered a cappuccino and a macchiato. The cappuccino was creamy, well-balanced, and served at the perfect temperature. The espresso was smooth and mild -- not too bitter or sour. The service was average, as I waited over 10 minutes to receive my drink. Prices were reasonable for a small coffee shop. There is a seating area, but depending on the day and time, it can get very crowded and the music can be quite loud. It's not the best place if you're looking for a quiet spot to sit and read. There's a small parking lot in front of the shop, but spaces are limited. Some customers park briefly to grab drinks and leave, and if your car gets blocked in, you may need to wait before exiting. read more

My americano was perfect blend of smooth and nutty flavor. Staff was friendly and helpful. The bakery items looked incredible even though I didn't have one. Will be back any time I'm in the area! Worth the drive read more

Best coffee in College Park - hands down. Wide range of espresso and classic coffee options plus excellent bagels, pastries & bowls. Service is efficient and a solid mix of seating options that span single, counters to small tables. Campus coffee options are nearby, but this is far better. read more

My go to is their latte with oat milk, though I love a specialty drink, especially if it's not super sweet. This year the chai-nog was that drink. Creamy and spicy without too much sweetness. I often get my coffee beans from here. They print their roast date on the bottom of the bag (roasted at their hyattsville location) and they always have a great variety of beans. Occasionally I'll get an almond croissant and enjoy it if there's seating. On nice days, there are benches right outside, even with a view of the parking lot and the construction across the street, it can be nice. I enjoy this location, though parking is tight. If you're not lucky enough to get a spot, you can park next door in the paid lot behind the businesses right past Vigilante. read more

Great coffee shop, was in College Park so I decided to stop by for a cold brew and some beans to go. Nice service and the cold brew was ready very quickly. The beans were some of my favorite their El Salvador selection. Inside is small but has some seating. Overall a great place to get coffee and get some beans for home. The best coffee in the DMV read more

Incredible 5 star latte coffee snob approved! 2 days in town, both days different baristas consistent flavor and quality, which is a sign of a good operation. Pleasantly surprised to see a La Marzocco, another good sign. Open at 7 for people with jobs , much appreciated and well worth the 20 min drive. Hats off to you for caring about your craft for those of us who only settle for the highest quality. Thank you. read more

Really liked my coffee and croissant but getting in and out of the parking lot can be difficult if you drive due to limited spots. Quite a bit of seating inside but it's very popular with its proximity to campus. I'd return but likely order to go! read more

My experiences at the Hyattsville Vigilante Coffee was always amazing. This new version is not for me. My iced Chai Tea was so thick, syrupy, and excessively sweet. Totally Undrinkable. When I brought it back, I expected a replacement but was rang up for another drink. I questioned the same barista why was I being charged for this, I didn't drink it? The replacement plain iced coffee I ordered - came with an unpleasant cream. I didn't even mention it. Very disappointing experience and a noticeable decline in product quality and service. My barista would really benefit with quality service training. I don't recommend this location at all. Hard core rock music in the background... read more

Cozy little spot close to the district building and courthouse. Nice vibe. Seating is a bit tight; you will brush up against your neighbors as you squeeze past. Chai tea latte was delicious. read more

Really good. It's no wonder there's a constant line here. A bit packed and chaotic but the line and order comes quick. Small bathroom but decent. Not too many seats but we were able to find some. I parked a block away in the retail paid parking area and walked over. I got a half bagel with avocado, tomatoes, micro greens and balsamic vinaigrette. It was perfectly toasted and fresh. I got my matcha latte with oat milk at 50% sweetness and it was probably the best matcha latte I've ever had.... The sweetness was just right - there were chunks of matcha at the bottom but I thought it wasn't too bitter so I really enjoyed it. I rarely finish a hot drink in one sitting like that. read more

Great service, great coffee, great food. Incredible vibes. Love it. About an hour from me so I can't go in as much as I'd like, but whenever in the area it's a must go. read more

Vigilante brews are my favorite beans in Maryland so far. if I see a coffee shop sourcing their beans from Vigilante, i am there. you can't go wrong with any of their drinks. a classic hot latte will always be at the top for me. that way, you really get to taste the flavor of the beans! always a go to spot for me. ALSO!! the hyattsville location is amazing - they do a 30% discount on all drinks after 4pm; their "happy hour" which is perfect for broke college students like me haha read more

Vigilante Coffee - honey cinnamon latte with oatmilk!!! a special treat to myself - Coffee & Tea Near Me - College Park, Maryland

Always great coffee at decent prices. I walk here after my weekly Saturday parkrun and there can be a line. Tip: Apparently doing mobile ordering can beat the line - one of my running buddies got his espresso 10 minutes before us and he had been waiting in line after us originally. read more

I ordered the honey cinnamon latte. It was served warm/cold, which was weird because I saw them make it and I picked it up when they called my name. I like my drinks hot and it was just odd that it was served on the colder side. Cute location. Maps took me behind the coffee shop and I had to pay for parking so make sure you stay on the main road and park in front of the shop for free parking. Nothing was exceptional here so I won't be back but it was fun to try. read more

You could do worse than Vigilante Coffee for an afternoon break. I love the industrial vibe and the care the staff take to write your name in the foam of a cup of hot chocolate. I wish there was a better selection of pastries, but you can't have everything. I did find myself wondering why there were so few tables in what is in fact a large space. Perhaps they want to leave enough room for lines for what is essentially a take-out business? That would also explain why two of the five parking spaces are for 10 minute parking. There is inexpensive metered parking right next door, so it's not a big deal. A place to return to and get to know its rhythms and rolls better. read more

Still one of my favorite independent coffee shops. I've gone a total of two times but every time I go their coffee is on point. I got a small London fog iced with oatmilk and it was perfection. My boyfriend tried their tin Lizzie espresso in vanilla latte iced. I tried some and I enjoyed the hazelnut/earthy taste but has. Service was average. They actually forgot to make my boyfriend's drink and saw us waiting. But it came out quickly after they realized. The shop is pretty small. It's also quite noisy so not really my place to study. read more

Very cute adorable coffee shop in College Park, very close to the University of Maryland. It has a low key eclectic vibe, as it's an independent coffee house. They have a collection of coffee house plants, giving that homey vibe. The coffee and pastries are very reasonably priced, coffee is under $4. The staff were friendly and courteous, very cooperative when I request my pick up order. If I'm close by to this location, I'd definitely stop in again. read more

I went around 11 am on a Saturday so it was a little packed inside but the line moved quickly enough. I ordered the Maple Spice Latte and banana bread to go. They were out of almond croissants, blueberry, and carrot muffins while I was there. The inside of the shop was cute and spacious. There were tables available for people to work but the shop may be too loud if you're looking for a quiet workspace. The music selection was great and I loved the selections. My MSL was delicious and the perfect fall flavor. I would go back just for that alone. Plus, there's plenty of parking available in the lot and nearby. That's always a win in my book. read more

Love buying my beans from here, but the staff never keeps the shelf stocked so every time I come in I have to ask if Tin Lizzie is in the back. The past couple of times the nicest employee will go back downstairs and grab me a bag. Today, the employee couldn't be bothered to help me and told me to come back in a couple of hours and the shelf will be stocked. Come back in a couple of hours?! The beans are in the back, but she couldn't take two seconds to go grab me a bag. I don't live in the area and I only come by when I can. Ridiculous behavior read more

This is such a cute little cafe. Our niece is a freshman at UMD, and she was home sick. We picked her up and asked where she wanted to go. She chose here. The service was great. Food and drinks are delicious. It hit the spot. The only drawback is parking, but we did get a spot. Love the vibe of this place. Wish there is a place like this closer to home. read more

Really nice coffee shop and cafe. They have acai bowls and pastries and they are good. I had my usual latte and it was well crafted. Flavor was smooth and tasty. Pastries are good and they will warm them. Some seating but very limited parking available. They do sell merch. Overall, a hit and I recommend! read more

Vigilante Coffee is a quaint coffee shop in the heart of College Park, MD. Like most coffee shops you can order ahead via their website or order in. It's a frequented hot spot so parking is competitive in the small parking lot. My favorite drink is their dirty chai. Their servers are warm and helpful. Offering an array of coffee, teas, pastries and bites they're the perfect little getaway to sit and read, get some work done, or just enjoy your cup of joe while people watching. There is indoor and outdoor seating and a couple of local restaurants nearby in walking distance. read more

My favorite place to get coffee near UMD campus. They've got the best chai latte I've ever had. Their baked goods are decent but not stellar. I mostly come just for the drinks. The vibe inside is indie and cool, with some indoor seating that fills up quickly. They've got a bit of parking available, as well as a public restroom. read more

I had a vanilla cappuccino, it was fantastic! They were out of all drip coffee & heavy cream both, my husband's order.. They offer pastries but nothing looked that good, all seemed kind of plain gas station like read more

I frequent Vigilante's many locations as their food, coffee, and service is on point. An Açaí bowl is my go-to. Ambiance for UMD location varies upon the day (it's a college town of course) but it doesn't bother me. read more

Honestly it was very underwhelming. I've heard good things about this place but to me it wasn't good. I got the iced matcha and the matcha powder was not dissolved and there were like bits of matcha at the bottom of the drink. The matcha itself didn't taste high quality either and for $6 it is definitely not worth it. Another thing is that they serve the drinks without lids and you have to walk to the other side of the store to get lids and put it on yourself. I will not be going there again. read more

Festive decorations mixed with live plants is a great atmosphere to get out and have a good cup of coffee :-) There are plenty of shots of drinks and food you can see, todays review is about service. This place is same owners but it has a new manager a couple of months old and it really has made a HUGE difference. College Park is finally rising up to the same level of service as the Hyattsville location. Service is a big deal when you have to fight traffic and find parking or pay for it, to go inside and relax and have a cup of coffee. The last few visits have been wayyyy more in line with that warm, quirky, raw organic feel that I would think the brand reflects. The coffee and food is great but service can ruin the entire experience. This manager has that touch that her staff unbeknownst to her speaks well of her and it shows in the service I get as a customer. It's a young mixed genders and ethnic crew with a very inclusive vibe. Kudos to new manager, April. I actually went to meet her several times to give a compliment and this time I found her. It's not an easy task to be a good leader that people actually like, spot and hire staff that is competent and good, and it trickles out to the customers. My entire crew was on it and friendly today. The last 3 visits have been great so, now I know it's not a fluke - it's a new manager I hope the owners recognize April, HUGE turn around! read more

THIS PLACE!!! So cute my god. Loved the vibes, loved the coffee, loved the pastries. I came just after they opened, which I don't love doing since I've worked service jobs before and when people come in right after opening...you know the feeling. But I had to get to work so I made an exception for myself today. Despite being there so early, the staff were super energetic and sweet. I got a vanilla latte (iced) and it was very good. A bit sweeter than my usual preference but I'm picky about the sweetness of my coffee so don't really listen to me. I also got a chocolate croissant, as recommended to me by the barista. She had good taste, the croissant was yummy and they even warmed it up for me. The inside is really cute, with a good amount of seating and a nice cozy vibe. I wish I had more time in CP, I would have come back to this place! read more

Fave coffee place in CP, the place is decorated so well and the baristas are very friendly and welcoming. Clean gender neutral private bathrooms as well. Not a coffee connoisseur but a lot of avid coffee lovers have told me theirs is very good. They source coffee from many different places and support small farmers all over the world. You can buy many kinds of fresh beans. They have a good variety of delicious pastries and specialty drinks. Chill vibes to grab a small bite or to study. read more

Vigilante Coffee Company caught me completely off-guard. The drive there was in an odd place, but it seems to be up and coming. Then once you finally find parking (limited spaces) and enter the coffee shop you are immediately "wowed." The aroma of this place is so intensely...yummy. It's as if you are smelling in the best candle and hope that your clothes are pressed with it for the rest of the day. The place was packed. Every seat was taken, and everyone seemed to be deep in conversation, digging into an acai bowl, working on their computers, or sipping (or chugging) their coffee. My kind of vibe! The menu is extensive. For beverages they typically have special lattes, cold brew, drip coffee, espresso shots, tea, affogato, hot chocolate, juice and ciders. For snacks they have fruit bowls, acai bowls, yogurt bowls, bagels, croissants, and pie! Everything has been topnotch tasty, and we will forever be customers here. We also frequent a lot of breweries in the area and have heard that the master coffee roaster, Franklin Ventura is the go-to dude for beer collaborations. Hope to try one in the near future! read more

Smaller coffee shop offering baked goods from Bake Shop DC as well Vigilante merchandise. High top & regular tables with some outside seating. A small lot so parking is quite limited. Ordered the recommended Maple Spice with Oat Milk (Milk-whole option only). Pretty good coffee drink with a good balance of flavors. Saw they have Cold Brew, Matcha & Ice Cream (Affogato!) Upbeat music was playing & looked like a popular spot for students. Friendly and upbeat people taking orders and making coffee. They also have a second spot in Hyattsville. Cool spot for work/study. That said given parking limitation, looks like a good pick up/takeaway spot. read more
