Rappahannock Coffee - Arlington

Mr. Lee and Paul are wonderful people. They make this coffee shop feel like a second home. Paul and his scroll. To which he copied by hand, Shakespeare's Tempest.Food: 5/5

The classic Rappacino is really good. We just sat there and played trivia for a hot minute and talked about nothing. Something about this place is just really comforting. Nothing on the menu is too expensive, so everyone can usually show up. Looking forward to going back.Food: 5/5

Coffee is really bad, tastes burned, clearly over extracted. Got a medium roast Columbian, can’t taste any notes and has bitterness. I am a coffee geek, I try to go to places where I’d find freshly roasted coffee and love trying new ones. Very disappointed.The food is fine though.

(updated review)5 stars in 2019, still 5 stars in 2023. If you're looking for a quiet lunch spot or a locally-owned neighborhood coffee shop, this is the place. Great coffee, great prices, and great customer service.Food: 5/5

I really wanted to like this coffee shop. It’s got a cool name and a very European, hole-in-the wall feel… unfortunately the coffee is bad. Like really really bad. No clue where they get it but it is undrinkable.
