Emissary Washington DC

Stopped by one weekday morning to catch up with an old friend and this was the perfect place to do it. Loved the space and how relaxed the environment was. Here are some of my thoughts: Environment I really loved the space - it was very chill and relaxed. Plenty of space inside to sit and relax whether it be hanging out with friends, catching up on work or reading a good book - there are plenty of places to tuck a way and make it your own experience. The vibe is chill, warm and welcoming. It's somewhat tucked underground but still has great natural light that adds to it's charm. I loved that there was also options for outside seating - which is great on a nice day and where me and my friend decided to sit. It was fairly empty at the time that I went so not sure what its like on busy days but i can imagine that it can fill up quickly. Service The service was great and fairly quick. You order at the counter and then they will make your order and call you when it's ready like many coffee shops. Friendly barista and staff that were very accommodating. Food and Drinks I only had a mocha that was pretty good and would definitely go back to try other things off the menu. Overall Perfect place to relax and grab a coffee or a snack with a friend or for a break at work or just to catch up on news or read a good book. Ambiance was relaxed and chill with good warm welcoming energy. I would add this to the list of places I would go to for a good coffee and talk.

LOVED this little cafe! The atmosphere is so cozy, as it is tucked away in a little courtyard. The coffee was great, I got a lavender latte, and my husband got an espresso. We were both very happy with our morning coffee. I would suggest getting there early as it seems to be a popular neighborhood hangout.
