Ridgetop Coffee and Tea

Ridgetop is such a comfortable and welcoming place. I only wish there was more "comfy" seating. And, unfortunately, it seems the prices have gone up -- but I think that's par for the course these days. Still, I'm very glad we have this coffee shop in the Sterling community.

Great place to hangout, get some work done, drink good coffee. They have tables, bar counters, and even couches. Their espresso based drinks are made extremely well, way better quality than Starbucks for a similar price

Today was my first time visiting this coffee shop and I have to say i was pleasantly surprised.

From the outside it's not much to see, and honestly I almost drove right past the place. However, once inside, it's looks pretty nice and inviting.

There's ample seating throughout the whole space (which is large), and there's a variety of types as well. (Tables with chairs vs sofas, etc.) That is also nice.

There's a huge play space in the back for children which is also separate from the main 'dining' area and is great for keeping children busy and not bored.

There's a meeting room available to use as well, so that's nice for those who need it.

Lastly, and likely most importantly, the coffee is very good. There's a la marzocca coffee machine that they use and freshly ground beans, which taste great. The baristas frothed the milk well, and although the latte art is lacking, that's really not important because the coffee tastes great and is served hot.

My only reason for not giving 5 stars is because the wait times at peak are still pretty high, given that there's only that one aforementioned La Marzocca. However, the wait is a small price to pay for nice coffee and comfortable seating in a nice coffee shop.

I would recommend.

An underrated coffee shop that serves delicious specialty coffee, sets the perfect ambience and also embraces community. They get it right, whereas others are just faking. A community board connects small businesses inside near the bathrooms, and service is also great. Outdoor seating is available, as well as some delicious baked goods to complement your coffee.

If you’re ordering for lunch, be ready for a long wait. Even online ordering doesn’t have an accurate time estimate

This is a great coffee shop located in the industrial park buildings of Sterling ridge top coffee and tea is going to get you everything you need to get going they've got that special fuel and if you're lucky ask if it's a great Arabica/Robusta for the espresso. They also have cappuccino light fair like little cakes and muffins and things like that but the atmosphere is really great Thank you ridge top coffee and tea for having such a wonderful coffee shop can't wait to come back again soon

When I drive up from Norfolk to visit our Northern VA office I like to get my morning coffee here. The staff is great and coffee is great!

Great experience, excellent coffee and a play area for children...

Ordered 2 cappuccinos , waited 25 min to get my cappuccinos. Staff instead of making orders staying and talking to each other, no rush at all. Yea I can stay here all day for 2 capps. Poor management

Stopped by this place on a quick visit to VA. The caramel apple latte was amazing. Even better was the fact that the mobile order application/website worked flawless, so my drink was ready to go when I arrived.

My only regret was doing a to-go order because the place had amazing vibes inside, and I would have loved to hang out for a while.
