The Coffee Bar
1200 17th St NW #150, Washington, DC
Crema's Take
“The Coffee Bar has carved out a beloved spot in DC's coffee scene by mastering the fundamentals: thoughtfully pulled espresso drinks and a genuinely welcoming atmosphere that respects both the rushed morning regular and the laptop-bound afternoon lingerer. With hundreds of glowing reviews, regulars clearly appreciate how the team balances serious coffee craftsmanship with the kind of unhurried, social vibe that makes it feel less like a transaction and more like dropping by a neighbor's place. Whether you're meeting a friend or settling in for a few hours, this is the kind of neighborhood spot that gets better the more you visit.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings.
