I live in upper Montgomery County, Maryland and had to come out to Chantilly for a meeting. Did a little sipping and a little work yesterday for the first time at Caffein...and I LOVED IT! I love the decor, the sound level was just right, and the drinks. Well, the drinks were PHENOMENAL! I was curious, and a little standoffish, about the Rose Latte. Oh, yes, maam! Its was so ethereal! That was so impressive and innovative to me! Absolutely palate-invigorating! Then, being the thirsty gal that I am, I had the...oh, no! I forgot the name! It was a name I had never seen before, but its an iced cold brew with half and half and simple syrup. Umph...I had two of those! I think Ive found my new coffee spot!

I love this place, having come here for many meetings and many times by myself. The coffee is great and their sandwiches and breakfasts are good too. In addition, I like the atmosphere and it is usually not too crowded to enjoy. The manager is very nice and friendly too. The only things I dont prefer is that it isnt kid friendly (the reason I originally went here was that I was told the kids could play with the store iPads, which isnt true). I think (like everywhere) having a kids corner in the back would be great. Also, sometimes the same songs are played every time, but that was a last-years problem, so I am not sure if that is a current issue.

My husband and I stopped in here this morning after reading decent Yelp reviews. My husband had a cappuccino and I had a latte made with almond milk. Both were delicious. You have the option to have your drink made with either soy or almond milk just for an extra cost (minimal cost). We also had the turkey pesto ciabatta. I had avocado, tomato, and spinach aside from the turkey and pesto. It was made fresh to order and was sooo good. If you like Starbucks and like their specialty drinks quickly change your loyalties and come to Cafein. You will not get burnt beans. Instead youll get a smooth coffee that will make you want to take another cup to go!

Ive never written a google review, but I definitely feel like this place is deserving of one. I recently relocated to the NOVA area, and was disappointed that I was unable to find a cute, local coffee shop to frequent. Eventually, I found Cafe In and I must say these guys know how to make a great cup of coffee. They use quality beans and every time I order a different pour over, they provide a lovely detailed description of the coffees flavor notes. My other favorites include the honey cinnamon latte and the white lavender. Its also a great place to study or catch up with friends. I highly recommend it!

This place is a gem of a coffee shop in the otherwise Starbucks dominated NoVA burbs. The owner obviously has strong passion about coffee. Excellent Stumptown beans (Ive only had drip here) and some enticing looking food choices. Very popular on Saturday morning. Plenty of seating and plugs and laptop options. I havent seen a coffee shop outside the beltway where I felt comfortable since the Reston Greenberry closed (and even that was on a decline for years). Please give this shop your money! We need it to stay alive!

Found this place for meeting with my team and clients and we absolutely enjoyed using this place. There are plenty of seating and large tables that can easily accommodate 6-8 people. The atmosphere had just the right vibe and is perfect for catching up with old friends. Ive only had the iced coffees here which were quite good, and the hot drinks looked good as well. There is a small selection of food available also, perfect for a quick bite. The service here is absolutely incredible and it definitely shines through.

So Ive been coming here for like 2 years and finally decided to write a review - yup, lazy. If you love real espresso (and not just beans that were set on fire with overly hot water pressed through the charred ashes) then welcome to Heaven. Seriously, theres no button pushing here, these guys know how to pull a shot. The staff and owner are friendly, the atmosphere has light music and is cozy, the paninis are excellent, and their lattes are worth crawling miles over broken glass for.

The food and drinks are very good (though I wish they also offered scones/muffins instead of just sandwiches or cake)! The atmosphere is fun and unique. I love LOVE the latte art!! It offers smaller tables as well as a few really large tables in back, accommodating many different group sizes. Also, a few of the tables are big enough for board games (but come expecting to not necessarily get one of those). Its not the most kid-friendly place, but they do offer high chairs.

This is one of my go to places for iced latte. There arent that many places out there that are worth going to and this has been an island of trust for me. My opinion is based on over 28 years in the coffee industry. I have owned two espresso service companies, a coffee Roastery and a small cafe. I have also worked with and along side of illy Caffe my entire career. Yes illy is still my favorite, but Cafeins is a close second. Cheers!

A really trendy spot with great choices and great coffee. Their signature drink, the Rose Latte, comes with an actual flower. It was delicious. I dont normally eat flowers, so this of course, sets it apart. Some interesting things: the name is pronounced "caffeine" and there are the three elements from the periodic table, Ca for calcium, Fe for iron, and In for Indium. This has nothing to do with coffee as far as I can tell.

We stopped by based off reviews and were 100% satisfied. The sandwiches were fabulous! We tried both the rose and cinnamon honey lattes and they were fabulous too! Service is great. The only downfall was that at 10am, most tables were taken up by one person and each occupied on a laptop. We had to take our food to go, as there were no open tables left, but still a MUST to put on your list of places to frequent!

Having lived in cities for many years, it is so wonderful to find this gem in a suburban setting. Great coffee and the Sausage on Croissant is delish! Its also nice and quiet which allows for good conversation or a quiet place to relax with a book. The service is quick and the location is clean. I wish they would open a place up like this in Vienna!!

One of my friends recommended this place awhile back, and I was really impressed by the quality of the Americano that I ordered. Lots of coffee establishments over roast their beans (Starb__), but this place knows how to make excellent coffee. Coffeesmith is in my Top 5 favorite coffee places of all time.

Ive been a customer for years and, to this day, its still the coffee shop that I go to when Im hungry, or when Im catching up with a friend, or when Im writing or doing homework or anything. The atmosphere is wonderful, people are great, food is awesome, and coffee is beyond this world. Try it out.
