Really good. I had a small vanilla latte and it was super rich. The vanilla was advertised as a house made vanilla syrup and it was just perfect.

This is a nice cafe coffeehouse blocks away from a major Howard University dormitory building. My daughter and I decided to try something here as she is a regular customer with her friends. We were on the way to the airport and we had not had the chance to eat all morning. I ordered the Unido Burger and a Vanilla Latte. My daughter ordered their breakfast sandwich, no sauce and a prepacked retail juice. My daughter's breakfast sandwich came out with an exorbitant amount of the sauce on it, and that is not as it was ordered. She took some time to wipe off the sauce because we didn't have time for them to make another one. She went ahead and ate as much as she could've, but it was not ideal. I just think that what if she was allergic to something or could not have the ingredients she asked to not be on the sandwich???....scary. The Unido Burger was a small good quality beef patty that had BBQ sauce, cheese, and red onions on a small brioche bun. It came with fries. It was very tasty and the fries were a hit.The staff is very kind. Halfway through our dining, the rest of our party showed up with our luggage. So we were able to store it in the cafe with us. My Iced Vanilla Latte was good a my daughter enjoyed her packaged juice. This was a good experience, despite no WiFi allowed. I had an opportunity to use the open non-gender restroom and it was clean.

The largest location in D.C. of this coffee shop from Panama, if you love coffee with cool vibes, go to Unido just off of U Street NW. Open every day until 5 p.m., they sell a full coffee menu with a few food options. Stopping in on a Friday in May around 3 p.m., there was a steady flow of customers, but I was still able to get a seat. They have tables, bar seating, and window seating. Only waiting for about five minutes, my latte was strong and yet creamy. There are two restrooms in the back and free Wi-Fi for customers. (The Wi-Fi password is on the receipt.)

Super cute coffee shop with good food! They take cash and card which is great because a lot of places are x'ing out cash when it comes to coffee shops. I ordered the unido burger that comes with fries. My only complaint is that the portion should be a lot bigger. It's giving kid friendly but when I say the burger is sooooo good!!! It's delicious !!! Def a must try place for coffee and food. Initiate cute place to work out of. Check it out

Amazing place for coffee, food, and remote working! I had an iced lavender latte and the pork belly burger and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of both. The latte was perfectly rich with a great lavender taste that wasn't too subtle or too overpowering. It was also just the right sweetness for me. The pork belly burger comes with your choice of fries, yuca fries, or salad. The fries were delicately crispy on the outside and nice and fluffy on the inside, and were well seasoned. I also really liked the ketchup that came with it, which was less sweet than a typical ketchup and had almost a salsa-esque taste. The burger was delicious - I loved that the pulled pork had a slight crispiness which gave it an almost bacon-like texture and taste, and the combination of the pork with the pickles and slaw was so good. They only allow laptops at the bar and window, but they do have ample seating/table space at both areas so I don't think it would be too much trouble to find a spot (although it might be a bit cramped if every single spot was filled). Besides that, they have other tables and booths for people just trying to enjoy their coffee or meal. The space has great natural lighting and is not overly noisy, making it a great space to work or chill! Definitely will be back to try other menu items.

had an americano and a breakfast sandwich without the bacon - both were awesome. i was super hungry after having woken up early to study for finals without eating anything and this sandwich really hit the spot. can't wait to come back and try some other stuff... or maybe just get the breakfast sandwich again

Seeing as to how highly rated this coffee shop was, I had to swing by, and am so glad I did!! It's tucked away in a cozy little nook inside La Cosecha in Union Market. This iced vanilla bean latte was one of the BEST vanilla lattes I've had in the DMV (and I've had copious amounts), and I absolutely loved this. The vanilla bean flavor is subtle and not overwhelming, adding just the right amount of sweetness to the ratio of milk and espresso, which was unbelievably smooth and the perfect level of light creaminess. The space is small, but there's also seating outside as well. Staff were not the friendliest I'll say, but the coffee makes up for it. I will most definitely be coming back here to try their other specialty latte, the orange raspadura (orange peel & cane sugar). Can't wait to come back!

UNIDO is one of the best cafes in dc and we're so fortunate to live right across and enjoy it as regulars. The vanilla latte is my go to for coffee and for food, you can't go wrong with any of their choices. My husband claims the unido breakfast sando is his favorite savory breakfast item in the city. I can't get enough of the vanilla bean pancakes so we compromise and share both for the ultimate sweet and savory experience. The ambiance is always mellow and the staff are friendly!

What a wonderful coffee shop for DC. I've been to the Unido stall at La Cosecha and thoroughly enjoyed the espresso, a really solid espresso program, and was in the area, so decided to try their Shaw location. Today, I decided to try something different.I asked the barista for the pour over menu, and saw a Geisha option that suited me. The price is definitely high ($14 for a pour over). They were out of my original choice, so went with the Abu Geisha instead.A great coffee, but the price turns you off quickly. I'll be back for an espresso before/after Whole Foods, and it's definitely a great coffee shop to relax in (the no-laptop areas are absolutely perfect!), but the coffee scene in DC isn't New York, and New York prices are next to impossible to accept in DC.
