Via Volcan Coffee - Alexandria

Honestly one of the best cups of coffee I've ever had. Bought two bags as gifts and I'll probably go back to get some for myself!

I was riding my bicycle by Via Volcan today on my way to another coffee shop. And after reading their sign I had to try their coffee. I am certainly glad I did. I had the medium roast that the young lady behind the counter recommend and it was the Smoothest best tasting coffee that I have had in Alexandria. I am retired and spend a lot of time wandering around Old Town and in the process looking for the best cup of coffee I can find. I think I just found the best.

Coffee 4/5. Hours they are open 1/5. You'd think a coffee shop would be open when most people want to drink coffee... instead they open at 11am?

A friend of mine bought me a bag of medium grind as a gift last year, and it was one of the best home black coffees I've ever had. I live on the east coast a few hours from VA, but this coffee was so good that now I have to order it online every time I run out. Highly recommend!

I was recently in old town Alexandria, leaving an appointment and was looking to try a new coffee shop when I stumbled upon Via Volcan. I immediately hopped on Yelp and saw that they had amazing reviews so I figured I would give them a try! Like many people have said, there isn't a lot of room in there to sit down or work, but I was optimistic of the coffee would be amazing as all the other reviewers had said. Immediately when I walked in, I was greeted by a friendly barista who talked through the menu with me and helped me decide what was the best option for me. I truly appreciated how kind she was and that she took the time to discuss the menu with me and tell me a little bit more about VV and what types of coffees that they brew. Although I wound up getting something similar to what I always do (a vanilla, oat milk, latte), she made me really excited to come back and try a drink that I believe has both coffee and either sparkling or tonic water in it? Overall, I had an incredible experience visiting VV on a weekday morning and I look forward to coming back and trying some more of their coffees. On top of having amazing coffee, they truly have excellent customer service and you won't be disappointed if you give them a shot!
