Foundation Coffee

I love this coffee shop! Definitely recommend this place if you're looking for a place to study and/or work.

It's clean and spacious, and the staff was nice and friendly. I ordered two cups of coffee, and they both were so good. I appreciated the variations of pastries and desserts, but the ones I tried were quite dry. Other than that, I really enjoyed this place!

What a perfect spot! The cafe is cute and clean, service is quite fast, and there is plenty of seating. The coffee is delicious but the real star to me is the strawberry cake. I can not emphasize enough how amazing the strawberry cake is. It is fresh, moist, and perfectly sweet. It puts me in mind of walking through a strawberry field on a beautiful Summer day, and is nothing like that terrible overly sweet artificial flavoring. I will certainly come back, even if it's just for a slice of cake.

How I've lived in Fairfax most of my life and never heard of this place before is a travesty. Easily my new favorite coffee shop in area. The staff was friendly, the coffee and pastry I had were both out of this world, and the interior design is really cozy.

Also that pastry selection is just, wow, so many delicious looking options. So go wander down an alleyway and find yourself in a coffee paradise.

Where do I start… this place is the definition of a hidden gem. Literally on the backside of all these shops. I’ve been to the shopping center 50 times and didn’t even see this… found it via Google. Parking can be unique due to the lack of dedicated spots.

What I really love is the vibe. LOTS of seats and great atmosphere. A nice subtle jazz music. Great coffee and staff was friendly. They even have like a stadium seating.

Looking forward to trying the food next time. The pastries look very good. It’s worth it to check it out.

Such a cute hidden gem! Located at the back of Fair City Mall, it’s a very calm and minimal coffee shop. There’s a few pastries to choose from and a simplistic menu with the coffee essentials. There’s also a few kinds of tea options as well! I had a vanilla latte with oat milk and I loved their melon milk bread! It would be a great place to work or meet up with friends!

Fantastic coffee! We got an iced and hot latte and both were great! We got a cream puff and it was delicious 😍🤤 The vibe inside was perfect. It was quite with light music playing, perfect for studying. I definitely recommend this place!

Absolutely love this place. Brewed coffee is prepared to perfection, their roasted coffee beans are of very high quality offering both single origin and some blends, and they have some great pastries! I love coming here and doing some work on the weekends occasionally and can't speak highly enough of this place.

Loved the environment, their coffee and some food options they have. The second i entered the place amazing smell got my heart. Also great place to work/study. I tried their latte and cranberry scone it is delicious. I am picky about sweet stuff since many place have too sweet, but here texture and sweetness level is super balanced. Definitely i will be visiting soon.

I happened to be in the area and wanted a place to quickly get on my laptop to write emails. I never expected to find such a gem! I loved the ambiance, pastries, and of course the cappuccino! I bought two bags of freshly roasted coffee beans, which I never do. The service was also top notch and quick!

Excellent coffee roaster place in VA, they have different kinds of pastries. My only comment during my first visit, they over steam the milk which my cortado was not as what I expected, but overall the place has a great potential of becoming one of the best specialty coffee in town.
