Dua Dc Coffee

It's a local's favorite and worth the wait! Cozy, warm-tone space with a lot of traditional Indonesian decor. The menu was interesting and the coffee was great. We went right after an Indonesian barista won the WBC and were impressed by the Indonesian coffee here. Normally I am not an Indonesian coffee fan as it tasted a bit too earthy or herby to me. But here, wow, they did a great job in introducing Indonesian coffee at different roasting levels and from different farms, and creating yummy drinks out of them. The lattes are nicely done even when they are so busy - I absolutely love that attitude! We highly recommend this place - probably the most interesting one to check out in DC.

My first time here in DC and of course I need to browse for a coffee spot.I came across Dua Dc Coffee as my uber took me to my hotel. I actually stayed about 2 blocks away and was able to get Dua Dc Coffee 3 days in a row. The first day I got the Pandan Cold Brew, it was good but the Pandan flavor was light. The 2nd and 3rd time I got the Kopi Susu. Omg it was so good hot! Especially in 50 degrees weather. The coffee was light and creamy and perfectly sweet from the condensed milk. Location is great, close to white house, restaurants and small stores. The store itself is pretty small and narrow but it does get a bit packed due to people sitting and hanging out. I would totally recommend Dua Dc Coffee to my coffee fans and of course I would definitely come back if I visit DC again.

really cute coffee shop in mcpherson square!the line was out the door when i entered, so i got very excited about my coffee. i ordered a kopi susu with oat milk, and my friend got a mango matcha. the place is kind of small but we managed to grab a seat on a bench - looks like most people take their stuff to go. the kopi susu didn't taste different from a regular latte to me, but it was incredibly delicious with high quality coffee nonetheless. i took a sip of the mango matcha and it was out of this world.i can't wait to return and try more menu items!

Great Indonesian-style coffee shop with great coffee and food, although I personally thought that the portions were too small and expensive. I had a cappuccino and Bakwan (an Indonesian street food made with corn batter and green onions). The place is a bit small, so the seating is limited. The decor and artwork is great as well, although I think the bathroom could use more decor and maybe a painting. Other than that, no complaints!

I've been here twice and will definitely be back! Haven't tried their food but have heard good things. I tried their mint mocha with almond milk and enjoyed it. Baristas are nice and you get a discount the first time you make an order through the app. Limited seating but good layout and some outlets available.Attached some screenshots from the app - love that they have descriptions of each item and make it easy to customize your order. I was to try the kopi susu and oat pandan cold brew next!

This cute coffee shop has a laid-back atmosphere and great tunes. I ordered the peach iced tea, which was refreshing and not too sweet. I skipped the food since nothing on the menu caught my eye.The small dimly lit seating area in the back is ideal for focused work. The waiting area features a bench and a cozy two-seat nook with a coffee table and a selection of magazines, giving off a functional living room vibe. There's also outdoor seating available.Overall, it's a nice, centrally located spot to grab a cup of coffee or tea.

Absolutely adorable space with a fantastic drink and snack selection! I was super excited to find a DC coffee shop highlighting Southeast Asian flavors, and Dua's signature drinks, including their klafee and kopi susu, certainly didn't disappoint. My only note is that everything is pretty sweet, and there aren't many options to reduce the sugar level -- their matcha mango, for example, is delicious and super refreshing on a hot summer day, but is pretty sweet. They also have a number of tasty snacks, including empanadas, scones, croissants, and their iconic toasts. If you manage to swing by before they run out, I highly recommend their sunflower banana toast -- the milk bread is soft and pillowy, and it's the perfect vessel for the nutty sunbutter, lightly sweet banana, and the light drizzle of honey. Whether you're dropping by for a quick to-go cup of joe or want to settle in to work / read / chat for a few hours, Dua is one of DC's must-try coffee shops. Not only will you be treated with a bunch of tasty drinks / snacks, but the ambiance is also wonderful, with a light buzz of conversation and upbeat music, and a ton of natural light from the floor-to-ceiling windows on the shopfront. The staff is incredibly kind and willing to answer any questions / allow you to sample a variety of drinks if you're feeling indecisive. Truly can't recommend Dua enough!

I love trying local coffee shops when I travel. Dua has a great story and vibe!! There were no tables available in the small space but we were happy to sit on a bench to enjoy our drinks. Since it was right before our dinner reservations I got Hibiscus tea. It was extremely balanced and delicious. I bought a bag of Aceh Gayo coffee bean that I can't wait to enjoy when I get home.

Dua has been on my list!!!! Finally last week while taking family from Philippines around DC, we decided to check them out. IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!! We got the pandan cold brew, kopi susu, mint hot chocolate and cappuccino. My favorite is the pandan cold brew! It is such a unique flavor and who would've thought pandan will go so well with coffee???? Staff are friendly and attentive! There was a line when we went but it moved fast. They have clean restrooms and tables to sit. Lovely cafe!We will definitely be back and excited to try new concoction they will come up with!

Dua DC is located right by the McPherson metro station. It's a fairly small cafe with limited seating in the back and bright and clean inside. The register is right when you walk in the door and the employees are really nice. The menu has a lot of unique options since it's Indonesian coffee and has a little explanation for each of the different blends.I ordered the oat pandan cold brew, which now might be my favorite coffee-based drink. I like the flavor of pandan, but if you're unfamiliar with it, it isn't too strong in this drink, and it adds a nice sweetness and nuttiness. It's a delightful drink that doesn't have the bite of a normal cold brew, it more so feels like a latte. I would recommend this drink even if you're not too into coffee!
