What customers say?

“ I ended up getting a coffee, panini, and a donut after 31 tubes of bloodwork. You’ll find this gem right around the corner of Phlebotomy, floor 1. Espresso machines, limited but well-selected types of pastries, microwave, seating area — what else can you ask for Order (~$16) (iced) Hazel “Oat” Toffee Crunch Latte: top tier, made with a true espresso machine, theres little pieces of the crunch mixed in it. so. good. 100/10 (I’m a coffee person) Devil Chocolate Cake donut: glazed outer layer, spongy cake-like middle layer, and brownie inner layer. I promise you wont regret this one. 9.5/10 (try it warmed up) Cold Cut Panini (Italian): If you’re not in the mood for it, it’ll taste pretty ordinary, but nothing bad about that either. I enjoyed it, solid bite, 7/10 ”

“ The best coffee you’ll find on the NIH campus, I believe. The Starbucks coffee in the lobby isn’t really Starbucks coffee ”

- Ryan Pezold -

“ Fast service and great coffee. They already know my coffee order which makes me feel welcomed. Wayyy better than the Starbucks and the basic coffees at the canteens. ”

- Biruk -

“ Good coffee fast service. I wouldn't say they have a good stock of pastries as others here have said but whatever. Their garbage cans however are always filthy. Like really gross and you have to touch them to throw anything away. Surprising for a shop in a hospital/clinical setting. ”

- Nathan Matusek -

“ I love this coffee shop - seeing Arlene working every day has become a comfort coming into work. Justin is always coming up with fun seasonal menus that I look forward to trying. I just found out that new management is taking over and I will no longer be seeing either of them; I am so disappointed to hear this. The Coffee Place had become a staple that felt like family for the staff, the patients, and the families that come here. ”

- Justina -

“ Nice coffee place at NIH, even better than Starbucks. The personal is friendly and fast. They have seasonal coffees. ”

- Klodian Haka -

“ Definitely the best and the most popular coffee shop at the NIH Clinical Center. The staff is super friendly and very efficient. The drinks come out quickly and are tasty. ”

- Elisa Ferrante -

“ Good food! Had a yummier vegetable wrap. Had coffee just the way I like it, w lotsa milk. It was very LA-TAY DAH! ”
