De Clieu Coffee & Sandwiches

Best Cafe in NoVa! Everything you order is fresh, delicious, and full of flavor. The wrapping paper they use is a fun, unique touch. So far I’ve had the veggie one-eyed jack with bacon, the caprese sandwich (mind blowing good), the salted caramel gelatoccino, and French press. The space itself is full of various seating arrangements, two Wi-Fi options, and quiet enough to host conference calls. If I lived within walking distance, I’d come every day. Hats off to the owners, managers, and staff for creating a beautiful cafe to spice up the WFH life.

I decided I needed a change of scenery for a weekend study sesh with the babe and I managed to find this gem. They offer the coffee style art on top of your foamy, creamy drink. Since this was my first time having it, De Clieu did an amazing job on giving me a positive impression on their variety of coffee flavors and artwork. The cafe is located on the corner of the street and there’s free public parking within the same block vicinity. This place also provides outlets and free wifi which makes it the perfect ideal place to sit down at the wooden tables with a cup of coffee and crunch time. However, keep in mind there are a lot of college students on the weekend especially during exam weeks so it can be difficult to land a seat sometimes.

One day best coffee place in virginia.... full of people... food was really good .... coffee and lemonade was good toooo. Will go their again and will recommend this to my family and friends..... ...... 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻....... 😀😀😀😀... btw their egg and cheese breakfast is a must try with everything bagel.... it was really good and i will go again for that.

I used to go to De Clieu in college, so visiting again today was a nice trip down memory lane. I got the tomato caprese which was really good. I’ve never had their pastries, but they look tasty. The best things about De Clieu are the kind customer service, the relaxed atmosphere with great music choices (not blaring or too loud, which is also good for studying), and the crazy variety of coffee choices. I got the maple syrup latte upon one of the barista’s recommendations and it tasted great; I just wish it was a bit hotter.

Overall I had a great experience, I look forward to visiting De Clieu again when I’m in the area.

This is the best bakery ever. Actual real good coffee - no marketing b/s. Must try at least once!

First time here and we fell in love the moment we walked in. The staff are very welcoming and friendly with a smile on their faces upon greeting us. I love that their menu on their boards are handwritten in ink chalk. It shows personality and creativity, as well as the time and effort into designing the whole thing. The decor has a classic coffee shop feel to it, but the table with the records and record player by the restrooms add a vintage charm. This place is also great for those who need to work or study since you have access to their WiFi connection and there are plenty of outlets along the wall by the windows.

They offer a variety of coffee brews and teas: Fresh Drip Brew, Chemex, French Press, V60, Esspressos, Tea Lattes, Speacialty/Seasonal brews, Gelatoccinos, and Iced Coffee & Teas. Not to mention their breakfast and lunch sandwiches, a few salad and soup options, and their baked pastries. I got the Jack of all Trades breakfast sandwich with a caramel macchiato whole my husband got the BLT and a light roast French press. They brought out the sandwiches to us in a matter of minutes while we only had to wait a little bit longer for the French press, but that is to be expected for the craft. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. Most of the time when I go to coffee shops I order the caramel macchiato and I usually end up adding sweetener but De Clieu's caramel macchiato is supurb and on point, I didn't have to add anything!

As far as handicap accessibility goes, I have not seen any ramp as we have only gone through the front entrance where there are a few steps to get into the coffee shop. There is a back entrance but I have not gone through it to see if there were any ramps or elevators. Also, the men and women's restrooms are single individual use and there are no changing tables. For parking, there is a small free public parking lot only walking distance.

Overall, we truly enjoyed our experience at De Clieu that we will definitely be back again!

This place is cute and perfect for new innovated coffees and pastries. The crepese pesto sandwich is yummy! It's right in the middle of Fairfax.

If you are looking for good coffee in Fairfax city, you should go there.
The coffee is so good, and the food is so delicious!
I'll go again definitely.

Great, little gem in downtown Fairfax City. Favorite gathering spot for locals and college students. Large variety of food and drinks - everything from traditional coffees and teas to smoothies, cold brews, pastries, sandwiches and more. Just as good if not better than the chain stores and priced the same or better. Never disappoints!!

De Clieu is my absolute favorite coffee shop!
They have creative lattes (my favorite is the Maker’s Mark Latte), friendly service, tasty filling food and a great coffee house atmosphere! Although it gets rather busy, they do a good job making drinks quickly and I’ve always been able to find a seat. :)
