was really hoping Fredericksburg finally had a good specialty coffee shop. I am a barista of 6 years and a big coffee lover. I tried an iced latte from here and it was a bit of a letdown given that they have a great slayer machine and serve stumptown which is usually pretty solid coffee. there was some sort of foam on the top which is not normal for an iced latte to have and a weird sweetness to the milk that did not compliment the espresso well (which was very weak to begin with). I have a feeling they maybe used sweetener or simple syrup and shook it up? Some people may like this but when you order an iced latte from a shop it should always come unsweetened unless you ask for sweetener. I didn’t have the chance to try anything else, but the food looked good and I’d consider going back to try that sometime, but not the latte.For Fredericksburg, it’s ok, but the espresso drinks could really use some work. Not a very cozy spot but that’s just a limitation of the space and not really their fault. I’d recommend giving it a shot and seeing how you like it, especially if you like sweet, milky drinks.I should also mention the workers were kind and helpful and made my drink quickly.

This is the first time we have been here. The inside is decorated very nice. There is a good variety of smoothies. It is only one size on the smoothies but they are very tasty. They have a good variety of pastries as well. All of them looked delicious. The staff was friendly and served us quickly. We will give a four for now, but we will come back more and try different smoothies and pastries.

Affogato is a treasure here in Fredericksburg! The service is outstanding, and the coffees are delicious, rich, and elevated. Affogato offers homemade pastries that brought me back to the incredible flavors of Europe. We had the affogato, pastry, and an iced latte. The ingredients used at Affogato are top notch, and the investment they make is obvious with every bite and sip! I am so glad they decided to launch their business in our community!

I've been in a few times and I will definitely keep going back. The food is made in house and the paninis are exceptional. Staff was accommodating and the environment is family friendly. This will be my new go to remote work location !

Really awkward experience yesterday afternoon, the employee had his girlfriend on speakerphone having a conversation while also taking my order. Then complained about having to have the phone conversation while trying to work. Not a very friendly experience, got a few desserts and left. Desserts were tasty, but based on experience might not go back.

I absolutely adore this place. The owner is so very kind and helpful. I had a Vegan apple cinnamon breakfast pastry and oatmilk cinnamon roll latte coffee this morning. I normally don’t order cinnamon-roll or sweet- style drinks because they are often just too sweet. Regular coffee also usually makes me pretty jittery so I often defer to decaf; however I didn’t do that here. I was pleasantly surprised that the coffee was the perfect balance of flavor and not too sweet. It also didn’t make me jittery at all.I left for an appointment and came back later with some food and asked if it would be okay if I ate it there while I worked and the guy let me. I’ve been back again since because I just like the experience. Also, the chairs are really soft, which doesn’t sound like a huge deal, but since giving birth I’ve been in pelvic floor therapy and a soft chair means so much to me.
