Lake Anne Coffee House Wine - Reston

4.5 stars nice thoughtful menu, locally sourced. I love the chef. Good wine choices. Great for weekend brunch. Coffee is good plus. Ocassional live music. Saturday March though November, extensive farmers' market is in the parking lot. Many market type items of international flair. Family friendly. Patio and inside pick your atmosphere for the date. LGBTQAI friendly not pushy though.

I was very frustrated being here yesterday. I was meeting here with a friend in order to do a little work party for two or so hours. I got a muffin and a drink here and would naturally give this place a higher rating if it weren 't for the service. I know people have good and bad days, but working in customer service, it is really important to put on a happy face and make people feel welcome. When I arrived, it took a while to get service (I am 9 months pregnant, so standing in line a while is not comfortable), and when I did, I was greeted with someone who was short with me and just put in the order and left when I was paying. I just shrugged it off, but then when the place had 20 minutes left till closing, the same person told us we had 10 minutes, and again 5 minutes later the same. It was pouring outside, and we had umbrellas, but were hoping to soak in all the time inside. I worked in customer service. I get wanting to close on time, but the reality is you are open until you say you are, and so it is rude to make people feel they have to leave earlier, and to keep reminding them. I truly don 't want to come back here after this unpleasant experience. I am hopeful it was just this one customer service person and maybe other people working there are more pleasant.

Every time I go, I get the same drink (Brown Sugar Breve) and the size is wrong 90% of the time which I don’t understand because their menu says it ONLY comes in an 8oz. There is a huge lack of flavor and the taste of the drink is always altered because the size is wrong. The staff is decent, but could be friendlier because I wouldn’t be writing this review if asking for my drink to be remade seemed like a hassle. I work in customer service and I understand serving others can feel overwhelming, but it always sucks being a customer and feeling like you aren’t allowed to be satisfied with what you paid for.

First I just want to say the breakfast sandwich was to die for! I got the cold brew latte and it wasn’t really my favorite, but not bad. The vibe is great with beautiful outdoor seating! This place was a little tricky to find. Since all the shops and restaurants are facing the lake, when you pull up it feels like you are at the wrong place. Just find a parking space and walk, you’ll find what you’re looking for!

Beautiful cute hidden away place. They are self-serve every morning except for Sunday brunch so don’t expect any wait staff. They have seating upstairs which is usually full every time ago (they should open a second location). Food is fresh and always quality. They are gluten-free friendly as well. The wait staff isn’t always super knowledgeable about GF but they offer gluten free bread and are super friendly about customizing orders
