Brew'd Coffee - Calumet-Norvelt

The establishment consistently has the door locked in the morning during peak hours with no explanation except that staff are on

Great food options. Lovely decor. Great vibes and warm staff.

I was really surprised when realized that it is a Nicoletta coffee house. Nicoletta is my favorite pizzeria in the area. The Coffee is good there.

Cute coffee shop in downtown DC! Love the clean café and the cherry blossom decor. There was only one barista working on an early Sunday morning. She was very nice and accommodated my three different coffee orders and pastries. I did have to wait a while, which I'm not used to (I'm on new york time lol) but it was well worth it! My Sakura latte was the perfect floral sweetness and my family enjoyed the mocha and cappuccino drinks. The almond croissant was perfect and so was the ham cheese savory one! My total order was nearly $30, basically Manhattan prices! only other complaint is that it's quite warm in there; not sure if they turn on AC at a certain time? There's outdoor seating as well. Also, I'm not sure if there's WIFI, but if there is, it can serve as a nice workspace.

The coffee and pastries were average. It's a nice spot for getting some work done since it's usually quiet, and the Wi-Fi is reliable. However, it's surprising that they don't have restrooms available.
