Nice vibes and the espresso was good. Bummed that there’s no baked goods.

This is an interesting place. During the morning and early afternoon, it's a cafe...but one without any pastries, only coffee, tea, etc. There are only stools rather than anything to lean one's back against, so it's not well suited for those who want to spend some quality time seated comfortably. Then, in the later afternoon and beyond, it turns into a raucous, packed place where millenials go to have beer (mostly standing room). There is also attached to it a large beer-garden-type space, but I didn't spend any time there as it was winter.

I went in so excited to try this place - Aslin is easily one of my favorite local breweries and I was so happy when I heard this place was opening. I finally got around to going last weekend and couldn't have been more disappointed. Terrible ambiance, rude staff, and extremely mediocre coffee. I also feel like the beer is much worse than it is when canned - maybe a problem with their draft lines? Also, to serve some of these beers with such high ABV and have no food seems irresponsible.

Great service and great coffee! Got a maple and cinnamon oatmilk latte very much enjoyed it one of the best coffee shops I've tried in dc!

The coffee is delish, the people are sweet, and they allow dogs!

The 14th Street corridor is home to, well, not-so-many great indie coffeeshops, especially closer to P and Q streets. The recent opening of Aslin Coffee changes that, and is definitely a welcome update to the neighborhood. In fact, Aslin Beer Company, with several locations around DC, took over a parking lot, turned it into a beer garden and added this all-day (and most days, all-evening, too) coffeeshop in the rear of it. It's super cute, has plenty of seating both indoor and outdoor, and provides great coffee and alternative milks with a smile. The baristas and friendly and helpful, and the service is generally quick. Definitely will become a regular stop for my iced oat milk latte whenever I'm around this area of DC.

The honey oat latte is an absolute gem!

- pour overs are definitely for coffee tasting fanatics only, not for casual drinkers. i got a light roast and it was so dark and bitter which isn't a flaw-- the flaw is just that my palette for coffee just isn't compatible with it. i added milk and sugar which i felt probably diminished the integrity

Aslin coffee is conveniently also a beer company. Perfect for a World Cup Saturday where you may want to start your morning with caffeine and end your morning with a beer. There's a large outdoor space to enjoy your drinks as well as a smaller indoor space. There's also a food truck that I would for sure try at some point. We had the iced matcha and iced maple latte because iced coffee/tea is perfect in any season. The iced matcha was pretty good- if I'm in the area and am in a tea mood I'd definitely go back. What I loved more though was the iced maple latte. It had the great balance of sweetness that can be hard to find sometimes. So whether you enjoy a beer, coffee or both this is a cool spot
I really liked this place the first few times I went, but it already seems to be going downhill. One or two of the staff members are great, but most of them seem to have no idea what they're doing. At this point, I don't know if I'd be willing to go again.

Great staff, great beer, good time! Only complaint is that finding a table is a bit of a free for all due to the popularity

Stopped in to try the coffee - cool space, lots of different seating areas outside and also in. Can see how this would be an awesome hang out spot, with Aslin beers as well as wines and ciders. The coffee was good, was afraid the black sesame snickerdoodle latte would be overly sweet but it wasn't, and the espresso tonic was refreshing.

Fun branding and people here! Very cool that it's part of the beer garden. I enjoyed my Black Sesame Snickerdoodle Latte and Cafe Morena. The employees are super friendly. Unfortunately, not too much indoor seating (and not the best AC), but plenty of shaded outdoor seating. I want to take advantage of the $16 Unlimited Coffee deal every Wednesday when you "WFH" there!

Great selections of beers in a fun outdoor space!
