Amen Cafe,

3661 Georgia Avenue Northwest, Washington, District of Columbia 20010

"Mimi runs an authentic bistro that is comforting and pleasant at every turn. I highly recommend her lentil samosa, the coffee, or one of her fresh smoothies/juices. If you want to support a Black-owned business in the neighborhood Amen Cafe is a must!"

"Great location to grab a quick breakfast en route to the Metro, serving a selection of coffees, teas, smoothies, juices, pastries, and plated foods (the breakfast platter looked enticing). For a small shop in a row of small shops, Amen stands out; you can see and feel the care put into it. The staff was helpful, offering suggestions to tailor my order. For whatever it’s worth, they do not serve decaf."

"I'm so grateful to have this lovely cafe so close to where I live, even though I would definitely make a mission to come here. This place is so unique compared to other typical coffee shops/cafes. The coffee is delicious and can be spiced with clover or ginger. A simple but special selection of baked goods always leaves me satisfied, along with other delicious food options, such as the foul or breakfast sandwich. The owner, Mimi, knows how to add a special touch to everything she makes and is always experimenting with new foods and flavors that she will let those who stick around sample. Just tried a couple of the smoothies this past weekend and they were spectacular as well! All in all, what keeps me coming back is not the reasonable prices or the quality of the food, but the kindness of the family that runs this places and all that they do for the community. Please check this place out for yourself!"

"The owner, Mimi, was an absolute delight and was so hospitable. I'm biased towards Ethiopian coffee and cuisine, but this was top notch. The coffee was great -- but what made it best is that the price was the cheapest coffee I've gotten in DC. I was most impressed so many veggie options. It was delicious. Looking forward to coming back."

"This place is awesome! The person running it was very busy and so kind! The food and tea are absolutely delicious! I will definitely be coming back here."
