The Newsroom
1728 Connecticut Ave NW, Washington, DC
Crema's Take
“Nestled in Washington, DC, this charming hybrid bookstore and café is a haven for print lovers and curious minds, stocked with an eclectic mix of current magazines (The New Yorker, Vogue, The Economist) and surprising used books that reward browsing. The owner is genuinely invested in his community, remembered for going above and beyond—whether tracking down a rare British Vogue or helping you discover your next favorite read—making it equally perfect for a slow afternoon with coffee or a quick caffeine boost between errands. It's the kind of place where word nerds and magazine enthusiasts feel completely at home, supported by a warm proprietor who clearly cares about keeping this little cultural gem thriving.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly, quick-grab spot, good for meetings.
