“ Ok so Virginia has been on our radar..at lot. It's just become the place we flock to for good eats, grocery shopping and other errands, etc. So as I have a goal to try a new coffee shop every other month in this new year, I searched for one after a visit to Trader Joe's. A few came up in my search but the reviews made Coffee In stand out. We walked in, (and because I am that person who reads the menu before I arrive), I knew what I wanted. It's a very cute quaint place with quite a few customers and staff that are operating cohesively as a team. The young lady greeted us and took my order. Sadly, what I asked for was seasonal so I opted for a hazelnut latte. The mark of a good coffee house is of course the coffee and their's is delicious. So delicious and robust in flavor. Im not even a have to have a cup a day type person but I know quality and this coffee was quality. I wanted to try the Turkish coffee that they offer because other's reviews raved about it but I opted not to be that adventurous. Maybe one day. Maybe they'd let me sample it. I also opted for food because I was also hungry from all the grocery shopping I did before and wanted to gear up for all of the shopping I still had to do after. So I got a turkey sausage, egg and cheese on sourdough-overall good sandwich but great bread. Now food I know well. I make great food and all types of baked goods including sourdough. Once again, their iteration was successful. I smelled the fresh sourness of the bread when I pulled it out from the bag..that should tell you everything you need to know. It was grilled panini style and again, tasted very good. To round this experience out, I got an almond croissant for my husband and I to share. That was good too. There was almond paste on the inside and almonds on the outside. The almond paste to croissant size ratio was lost as we found the filling itself in our laps more than in our mouths; so what little was there fell with every bite as it did not fill up the croissant enough. It tasted great as a whole but was a bit difficult to consume. I would definitely return to try (maybe sample) the Turkish coffee and other pastries. They also had coffee for sell that intrigued me. I would suggest that they update the website for new comers like myself. I really wanted something that the website listed and after learning in store that it was only offered seasonally, I was almost tempted to try another spot nearby. Glad I didn't! ”
“ Ironically I found Coffee In when I was supposed to be going a different coffee shop. Upon driving there I realized that one was closed so I looked up another close by, enter Coffee In. I went in to Coffee In and immediately I loved the look and feel of the cute little shop. I was greeted by friendly staff and even though it was crazy busy, they were working very hard and getting orders out quick! I ordered an Iced Lavender Oatmilk latte and a breakfast sandwhich on a croissant. Both were so good! I am so happy I stumbled upon Coffee In and I will definitely be back! ”
“ Stopped in before ballet class and it was very good. My latte was missing a bit of the sweetness but I believe that is more preference then anything else. Their nutella croissant was delicious. The person that took our order was nice. The setting is very cute and their little children's area was perfect for my little one. ”
“ Went a few times as they are conveniently located. If you are a coffee drinker(unlike myself), this is the place for you! My husband insists their Turkish coffee is the best he's had outside of Turkey! Never had bad service there. The presumed owner seems delightful. They are very quick as well. For non coffee, they used to not have much but I noticed a few new non coffee options I have to try next time I'm in including a sahlep. I also wish they would add some gluten free options to the menu. I do recommend coming here. Note it's more of a coffee shop than comes up on Google. Also seating is minimal. Perfect for a chat with a friend though and supposedly some of the best coffee in the area! ”
“ Great coffee house that the area definitely needed! Prices are absurd, but I would assume savings in the top of mind when looking to have coffee out than brewing at home. Nice new place for me ”
“ Coffee In at Lansdowne Shopping Center is the perfect pit stop to kickstart your day they actually open on time at 7 AM, so no excuses for being late to work. The coffee? Fantastic. The drip is spot-on, and the Turkish coffee? Let's just say, it's an adventure in a cup. Their pastries are a hit, but if you sleep in, don't expect to get the Nutella Croissant when they're gone. The adult grilled cheese? Solid enough to keep you going. Service is friendly, fast, and efficient. Oh, and they sell gift cards, in case you forgot to bring something to the office holiday party. There is seating inside and a little kids table as well. The menu is is on the wall and it make take you a while to decide your order but as I said before, you can't go wrong with the drip. ”
“ I went here for a quick coffee break and I was happy to have tried their Honey Lavender Latte. The place is a bit small with limited seating but it is a great place if you need to get some work done. The staff is friendly and even delivered the drink to me at the table. The latte art is amazing too! I don't have much to say other than if you like coffee and you are in the Franconia area, this is a place worth checking out. ”
“ Rounded up from 3.7 stars. Located in a strip mall, Coffee In was quite busy on a Saturday morning. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating, although with temperatures decreasing (at some point), I'm sure most people will grab indoor tables (fairly small space). Their drinks menu is pretty extensive and they also have yummy-sounding breakfast items. I didn't want to hold up the line, so I quickly ordered a spicy kashmiri mocha and a waffle. Not sure what exactly was in my drink, but it had a nice kick to it and it was good. The waffle, on the other hand, was a bit of a letdown. While it tasted alright, it came out cold. If you order a waffle, you can pick your own toppings. The staff were helpful and very friendly. Found this coffee shop by accident, but can definitely see myself going back. ”
“ Amazing little coffee shop with many different offerings. They also have delicious Turkish Coffee which the wife thoroughly enjoyed. I went for a latte which was also very good. Staff were super friendly. Light background music made for a relaxing coffee break. ”
