Dolan Coffee

Such a cute coffee shop! I've been here a couple of times and always get the chai. The chai is good, but I think it's important to mention that I like powdered chai. Service is quick and pleasant. There's also limited outdoor seating if the weather is nice. My friend has ordered the Dolan cake and I've tried the vanilla eclair. When I've been here there are no prices listed for the pastries so be sure to ask if you are not familiar with DC prices. The pastries are really high quality. The vanilla eclair was decadent. I would recommend coming here for a quick coffee and/or pastry.

Grabbed coffee here while working an event. Wasn't in love with the coffee, mostly because I ordered an iced white chocolate mocha and it was lukewarm with one or two ice cubes. I ended up asking for more ice which helped. Honestly, it did the trick and gave me a boost of energy which is what I needed! Staff were super accommodating and immediately put more in, without dumping any coffee out since it was filled to the top already. I appreciated the thought of giving me a bigger cup to make room for more ice. Loved their bakery items that I believe are part of Dolan Uyghur. I ended up ordering the brownie cookie and tried a bit of a friends honey cake she had ordered. The cake tasted like a honey graham cracker. The honey drizzle and cream filling gave it a nice light flavor. The brownie cookie I found a bit dry on the outside but moist on the inside. I typically like my cookies soft and slightly undercooked. I'd go back to try the white chocolate matcha cookie.

I was drawn to this coffee shop because on google maps it said it was open until 10pm. When I arrived, though billed as a coffee shop, it seemed to really just be a restaurant--interestingly, an Uighur one. I didn't really get any sense that it was a café. But since I was there, I ordered a hot chocolate (unfortunately terrible-tasting, but not terrible by DC and more generally American standards) and sat outside, I had planned to get a bit of work done on my laptop. The servers never came outside to check on me, but that was actually 100% perfectly fine by me, in fact it is the way I like it, since if I need anything I can ask. It was just a bit odd since I was sitting at a white table cloth table, which felt more like for dinner. Anyway, interesting experience. All in all fine, but one star off for the for me hardly drinkable hot chocolate.

One of the best Coffee shops in DC, I ordered a large regular coffee with cream and all. I think we also grab some croissants and bagels with them. Big place with lots of sitting space inside and out. Nice friendly baristas to make your day here with nice coffee. Play good music inside here too. Must come back again.

Do not come here. I came in on a Saturday morning and ordered an iced matcha latte which was about 85% cream (not frothed literally just straight up a cup of cream) and %15 matcha. The matcha was made with cold water, not hot water and then iced. Barista has zero idea about the matcha to water ratio, so along with basically drinking a cup of cream, the matcha itself was very weak, obviously along with her not understanding the matcha to cream ratio (should have been 85% matcha/15% cream like any other latte) You would think with the very few menu items they have, the barista would know how to make the matcha. I tried to ask her to remake it but she just dumped a little more matcha in the literal cup of cream she gave me. Barista seemed like she had zero idea how to make anyones drinks and seemed annoyed when we asked where the trash can was bc it was inconveniently placed away from where the sugar etc. was. This is not a real coffee shop, I didn't know it was possible to screw up matcha this badly.

Me & someone got coffees (different kinds) weren't good. Beans weren't fully roasted & they used tap water (cold) at one point (ordered hot beverages.

My wife and I bumped into this boutique coffee shop/bakery while looking for a place for a quick breakfast in Northwest DC, and end up spending hours in this quiet and relaxing shop. The owner/manager was so kind that he offered us breakfast sandwiches that were not on the menu (they actually don't offer breakfast), and they were so delicious. The pistachio baklava was just perfect with a cup of cappuccino after a sandwich.

Absolutely the best place I've ever ordered a espresso and I could spill my drink on the floor in the bathroom and still be able to drink it they were so clean
