Cotti Coffee

Melanie and Yuni are so sweet! So knowledgeable in what recommendations to try, and the space is so cute and clean. I definitely recommend this place, and the prices are way better!

Best coffee in DC, loving it. Pandan coco latte made my day🍽️😋

Great place to chill out. Wonderful drink and staff. Recommend everyone to come.

I wanted the Pampas Blue Coco Latte but it wasn’t available. The sole woman manning the store and also the barista had limited English so not certain if she said either it was going to be available the coming weekend or available only on weekends. So I got the Coco Cotti. It wasn’t bad but for $7, I expected more. Maybe I thought at least on par with Luckin (who shares some of the controversy and roots with Cotti) or Starbucks. But no, far from it.

I tried the Red Bean Coconut Latte at Cotti Coffee, and it was honestly a pleasant surprise. The first sip is light and refreshing with a clean coconut flavor — not overly creamy or sweet like coconut milk can sometimes be. The red bean is blended smoothly, without heavy chunks, adding a subtle sweetness and texture that doesn’t overpower the coffee. The coffee base itself is very approachable: low acidity, mild bitterness, and well-balanced overall. Even if you’re not someone who usually enjoys strong or bitter coffee, this one is easy to drink. The sweetness level is just right — flavorful but not cloying — making it a drink you can actually finish without feeling overwhelmed. Overall, this latte sits nicely between a dessert-style drink and an everyday coffee. You still taste the coffee, but the coconut and red bean soften everything in a really comforting way. It’s a great choice for an afternoon pick-me-up when you want something gentle, smooth, and a little different from the usual latte.
