The Greenery

I really wanted to like this place because it is a local spot that had a nice vibe but the coffee just wasn't good. We ended up throwing our drinks away after a few sips. There are lots of drink options for those who are dairy free/vegan. But most coffee shops these days have oat milk, etc.

On a cloudy and chilly day, I ducked into this corner cafe looking for a hot beverage. The young man greeted me with a warm welcome that brightened my morning. It was quiet when I visited so I was able to take my time to look around and check out the menu. I noticed there were one-off beverages offered here I have not seen in other cafes so I opted for The Mayan and the Pumpkin Flax Muffin. I was unable to have the muffin warmed up so that was a small ding on the food part. The muffin felt dense, weighty so I had to wait to get home to try it — bummer. While waiting for The Mayan to be made I looked around and really appreciated the embroidered works hanging on the wall. I like to hand-sew so I can empathize how long each item may have taken to complete. I like how they add a relaxed, cozy feel to the cafe. A few minutes later The Mayan was ready. I sipped, savored, and smiled. It was well-made with a touch of heat from the Cayenne. It was too wet and chilly to sit outdoors today, but it is nice to see an outdoor area you chill on nicer day. The Mayan was a delight to sip while I stroll the City this on a chilly day.

I spotter the sign walking from my yoga studio to Old Town and had to check out. So glad I did! This is one of the cutest coffee shops in the area, serving up tasty drinks made from single-origin beans from Mayorga coffee! ☕🌞 I was going to have a cortado but milk delivery didn't come yet so ended up trying their house intenvented Cubano, which was brewed with a bit of brown sugar and server what a sliver of orange 🍊. So good! My barista was really nice too and knowledgeable about coffee. Will definitely be back!

From one small business owner to the next, cheers to the owner Patrick and his staff. I work remotely and go where my work takes me. Alexandria is a bustling city and this is a must see destination here. I met Nicolas this morning while ordering a the best cup of coffee I’ve had in a long time. I was preparing breakfast at my Airbnb and didn’t have all the ingredients needed. Nick was so kind to offer his whole food ingredients so I could finish preparing breakfast. French toast to be exact. It’s evident this business cares about our environment and the locals and travelers here. Make sure to stop in and fuel your body and soul. Cheers!

I stumbled upon this super cute coffee shop in Old Town and was instantly drawn in by its cozy charm. The interior is inviting, but the outdoor tables are equally delightful--perfect for people-watching or enjoying a quiet moment with your drink. I tried their iced latte called "Pancake," and it was pretty good--smooth, flavorful, and just the right amount of sweetness. It's definitely a place I'd come back to, whether for a casual coffee break or a relaxing afternoon in the heart of the city.
