Crema's Take

“Northside Social nails the all-day café experience with reliable coffee, fresh pastries, and a genuinely comfortable vibe that works equally well for solo work sessions or lingering with friends over weekend brunch. The real draw here is the flexible space—generous indoor seating spread across multiple rooms plus inviting outdoor seating that makes it feel less like you're squeezing into a corner and more like you've claimed your own little corner of Arlington. Just know that while the Cuban sandwich and pastries consistently shine, the food quality can be a bit hit-or-miss, so stick with their strengths.”

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Parking available.

Northside of DC café. Pastries were fresh & delicious. The coffee on the other hand, was barely ok. Plenty of seating, as this is a coffee & wine eatery.

Cafe is a nice place to study, work, or hangout with friends however their food is lacking. I order an avocado toast and it was made with old avocados and it was brown. Really not what I paid for. I was pretty disappointed.

Local chain cafe with really nice outdoor seating in nice weather. Some of the food is good and some of it is not so good. Sometimes the turkey sandwich is great and other times really bland. Service is great though and it has a great cafe atmosphere.

Great spot for a weekend brunch. Loved the cuban sandwich. There is parking in front but don’t count on it. A lot of people so you might not be able to sit yourselves.
