Soleluna
1789 Columbia Rd NW, Washington, DC
Crema's Take
“Soleluna is a intimate gem where you'll fight for a coveted seat, but it's absolutely worth the squeeze—their laminated pastries are genuinely exceptional, with reviewers consistently raving about croissants that taste homemade despite their professional quality. The coffee matches the pastry game (their lattes are a particular highlight), and the friendly staff doesn't nickel-and-dime you for alternative milk, making this a refreshingly honest spot that punches way above its weight for the price.”

So this was probably the best baked good / pastry I’ve ever bought from a cafe/bakery. It’s super fresh tasting and just the right amount of indulgent. It tastes very homemade. I love the textures. It’s not too sweet (still quite sweet!) I think I tried the peach and almond tart.
A small space with big personality. Seating is limited, so catching an open spot feels like winning a tiny coffee-shop lottery. Friendly staff, great drinks, and an almond croissant that instantly made my day.
The croissants and coffee were good. My only complaint, on a cold DC day the croissants and coffee should be served warm. Croissants were good but not warm and coffee was lukewarm.
What a gem! Super affordable, incredible pastry selection, & maybe the best latte I've ever had 🥰 Bonus is they don't charge for alt milk options. I got an iced latte w almond milk & a mango danish. The staff were friendly & kept the line moving quickly. As others have said, only a few tables inside & out, but I was looking for something to go anyway, so this was perfect. Will definitely be back!
Soleuna in Washington, DC, is a charming coffee shop offering an array of the flakiest, highest-quality, and most delectable pastries. We got the cold latte, chocolate croissant, and pistachio croissant, and we were fortunate enough to enjoy our morning treat on their cozy, intimate patio. What a beautiful day it was! And, of course, I couldn't resist sending my husband back to get two more pistachio croissants to take back to New York. We absolutely adore this coffee shop. Despite there being a line of incredibly patient people eagerly waiting for their turn to savor the coffee and delicious treats, the experience was delightful. I love everything about this place and look forward to returning soon.
