Crema's Take

This Arlington gem specializes in traditional Turkish breakfast that earns genuine enthusiasm from regulars, with standout offerings like their Farmer's breakfast that keep people coming back. The spacious, vibrant atmosphere balances solo work sessions with group hangouts equally well, thanks to thoughtful workstations both inside and out that make it equally welcoming whether you're settling in with your laptop or gathering with friends over strong coffee and fresh pastries.

It's a good turkish restaurant, especially for breakfast. The ambience is excellent, and it has workstations inside as well as outside. Has a good breakfast menu. I tasted their Farmer's breakfast, chicken Alfredo pasta, and french toast with coffee. All were delicious. They service is good, and the staff is helpful. Street parking is paid except on weekends and holidays. It is located near Metro station, Clarendon. Highly recommended for breakfast.

I visited East West Cafe for the first time to try their Turkish breakfast, and I was not disappointed! I arrived around 10 AM and placed my order at the counter, receiving a number to place on my table. The staff, who were all Turkish and very friendly, brought the food directly to me. Although the atmosphere wasn’t quite “wow,” it was cozy and pleasant. As time went on, the place started to get busier. The Turkish breakfast was absolutely delicious – as you can see in the photos, it was a generous portion, enough for three people. I found it a bit pricey, but when split between three people, it becomes much more reasonable. Even though we were just two people and couldn’t finish everything (we were stuffed!), it was a great experience, and I highly recommend trying it at least once, especially if you’re craving an authentic Turkish breakfast.

I have mixed feelings about this place. I was looking forward to checking out the spot and had it on my list for awhile now. The restaurant is spacious inside. Food came out relatively fast, but service was lacking as no one checked on us after dropping off food. I must compliment the photographer and the menu creator(S). I ordered Turkish coffee, expecting it to be served in traditional turkish coffee cup, but instead I received it in an espresso cup. Yep, less liquid due to how much ground was in there.

We went to this restaurant/cafe with a group of friends, it was really nice place for gatherings and having chats as the place is really close to our vibes it was full and the people came to eat Turkish breakfast and chat. Overall food was good and tasty, the tea and coffee were good too with the fresh bread. 🥖 I recommend it and go again
