Nice place for a leisurely coffee and chat with friends. Good food. Service is a bit slow, and there seems to be some sort of time/motion problem. Takes longer to receive drinks and food than other similar establishments. Go figure. Good quality baked goods. Reasonably priced.
Such a cozy place to sit outside and chat!
Excellent choice to get good food, great people will serve you.
nice lil coffee shop in palisades
Absolute gem!
The food was simply delicious and the sizes were great!! Loved this place!
Best breakfast sandwich in the city!
Horchata latte was great
I love this cafe. The food and coffees are great and they have some vegan and some gluten free options. They have always been super dog friendly as far as I’ve witnessed which I really appreciate (I am still cautious and I try not to over do it with my dog in restaurants. This isn’t really a place for dogs they just don’t seem to give people a hard time about it which is practical and humane). The people that work here have always seemed professional and kind. Also very well decorated! It’s so pretty
Fantastic food, delicious baked goods and rich Nitro! Highly recommended.
Delicious, friendly, quick service, clean and near environment and reasonable prices. P.S. Free parking outside.
Black Coffee is quickly becoming my favorite brunch spot. Great service and solid food and coffee. Spacious outdoor area.
Wonderful place to get a cup of coffee and breakfast in the mornings.
This used to be one of our favorite breakfast places in the area, but they changed their menu and now, it's kind of a bummer. They used to have this amazing vegan breakfast sandwich..not even vegan, but it was breakfast perfection. The last time we got breakfast there was a few weeks ago and we grabbed these breakfast burrito bowls to go and when we got home it was like a sad salad with an egg on it. The pastries we picked up were still good.
Wonderful spot!!!
Pleasant spot to pop in for a quick cup of good joe!
Love this place! Have been going to Black Coffee for about 3 years now and it is one of my favorite coffee shops in the city. The baked good are outstanding, especially the cheddar biscuits! Although I always get black coffee (as in no cream), it always tastes fresh and perfectly brewed! Love the ample outdoor seating and the fact that the cafe is located well outside the busy DC center. One of the good places in DC!
One of my favorite coffee shops in DC! Great variety of delicious beverages and food - amazing pastries and great coffee. Highly recommend the cheese biscuits. There is lots of comfortable seating both inside and outside, and when I’ve ordered food it has always been brought out quickly.
One of my favorite places sort of in DC. The food-from the sides of potatoes to the gluten free vegan pastries -is delicious(the breakfast sandwich is especially good.) The staff is friendly even when faced with a long line of uncaffeinated customers, while the atmosphere relaxed and non assuming. Their counter drinks are well crafted, but so is their plain old coffee (which to me is almost more important.) It's a neighborhood haunt, and a hidden gem.
