Brew on U

Cafe · 4.7 (141 reviews)

Brew on U is a coffee shop and cafe at 1931 13th St NW. Its Google description says it sits inside what it calls the first capsule hotel in the US, and reviewers frequently mention the hostel setting.

It holds a 4.7-star Google rating across 141 reviews. Lattes are the most-mentioned item, especially a blackberry latte, along with pumpkin spice and chai lattes, empanadas and croissants, including a ham and cheese version. Reviewers also like the comfortable corners. The main complaint is access: a couple of reviewers found the door locked during posted hours because the cafe is inside the hotel, so it may be worth calling ahead.

It is a morning-and-midday spot, opening at 7 AM on weekdays and 8 AM on weekends and closing at 2 or 3 PM. Google lists a wheelchair-accessible entrance and restroom.
