Creative Grounds DC

This venue is pretty cool. Great lighting and outdoor seating. This venue also has art for sale as well as some books. The service during my visit here was good. My hot tea was good but the iced matcha needs work. I feel as though the quality of the matcha is the baking kind and not the ceremonial grade. The baked goods were really good though. The banana bread and the blueberry muffin were fantastic.

The Lavender Honey latte was absolutely delicious! It was the perfect balance of coffee with cream and syrups. This coffee shop would be a great place to catch up on work or visit with a friend. There was limited seating, but we were able to grab a seat during our visit.

Hands down my favorite coffee shop in DC. Not only are the vibes amazing, but the coffee is divine. The seasonal drinks have never let me down and their monthly coffee subscription has been a game changer. Even though I moved from the neighborhood, I always find my way back to Creative Grounds first. Love, love, love.

I couldn’t have picked a better place to host my daughter’s 7th birthday party. I highly recommend Creative Grounds for a unique, fun experience for your art loving child. Asmara did an amazing job decorating (we were so surprised!) and made sure all the kids had fun and felt comfortable painting what they wanted or followed along with the activity. The adults were able to pop upstairs, get a coffee and catch up - a major bonus compared to most kid’s birthday parties. Thank you Creative Grounds for helping make my daughter’s birthday so special and memorable!

Great black owned neighborhood coffee shop. I live in the neighborhood and my first time visiting was recently on Easter. I had a caramel macchiato and it was good. I also enjoyed the neo-soul vibes and tunes of Erykah Badu. Nice touch! Love the black authored books you can read/purchase as well. The barista was also very nice.

the drink and food were both great and reasonably priced, the overall atmosphere was also super great, especially the paintings hung up.

Wonderful spot at Seaton Pl & North Capitol, NW. Just enjoyed a perfect cappuccino & vegan banana-walnut bread!

I had an oat milk mocha and a chocolate chip muffin - both delicious. The staff were friendly. There’s a patio area with several well-spaced tables. This place welcomes dogs on the patio, and they give out milk bones so your dog can get a treat, too.

Creative Grounds has some of the best coffee in DC. good music too!

Had our kiddo's birthday here and it was amazing. They personalized the decoration and activities and kept the kids engaged. Wonderful service and everyone had so much fun!
