Some might argue that this place is a "real" coffee house, considering the owner told me "the only flavor they have is flavoring it with love." 4.9/5 for bold, fresh taste. Maybe a haiku will tell the story best: A bold coffee day Nostalgia like the wind A winter away

Delightful Ethiopian coffee shop located in downtown Silver Spring and also in the Wheaton Rec Center. The pastry is delicious and my hot chai tea latte is always well made.

This cafe have the cutest owners who are so kind and hospitable! I got a regular coffee with a splash of oat milk. The coffee tasted amazing and the overall environment of the cafe was so cute. The breakfast sandwiches look so good as well and made to order. There is a cute outdoor seating area which is great! Tip: $10 credit card minimum

The greatest. Just existing in this cafe made me feel better

One of my favorite coffee places in the DMV. This spot is for genuine coffee aficionados. I love conversing with the owners and other staff members.

The coffee at Kefa is reliably delicious. Iced coffee, hot coffee, espresso drinks...I also love their biscotti! Very safe for COVID, I’ve been coming here for 2 months during the pandemic and the owner is always, always wearing a mask. 10/10 recommend

I was in DTSS running an errand, had a hankering for breakfast sandwich and stumbled upon this charming cafe. The women who took my order and prepared my food was refreshingly kind, warm, and genuine. The bacon egg and cheese croissant was hot, fresh, and perfectly prepared with REAL ingredients. The latte was delicious and put Starbucks to shame. I will gladly return to this small business anytime I’m in DTSS. Oh and the pastries looked delectable. Regrettably I didn’t get to try any.

It’s been a really long time, but I was just thinking about how the ladies would take care of me when I worked across the street. I was a very broke counter girl and sometimes I couldn’t afford food until I got paid at the end of the day, so they’d let me pay the next day. So generous and kind. Also the muffins and coffee were SO GOOD. I’m so happy to see they’re still open, but I’m not surprised

First its cute, then the patrons are all at "home" and feel safe enough to invite you in to share their table with you and finally the coffee arrives and its a cup made with love, not enthusiasm 🤗

This is my favorite place to get coffee in Silver Spring. The friendliest owner, the best coffee, and such a relaxing atmosphere. Usually there is a delicious selection of pastries as well.

I lived in silver spring for 2 years and this is not only the best black coffee I've ever had, abiba and her sister and the nicest people. Please return some of the love these lovely people put into the community by supporting Kefa 💓💓💓

Stopped in for coffee while staying in town for a concert. Very cute local cafe, highly recommend.

Cozy, friendly place. The espresso was incredible with a great creamy feel and wonderful taste.

Kefa Café is a small place with big vibes thanks to its cozy space, incredibly priced drink menu (<$4 for any coffee) and great service and banter from Ababa. Note that under $10 you have to pay by cash but if you eat you won't have a problem hitting that as the food menu prices are pretty high (e.g $7.99 for an egg and cheese on croissant).

Delicious! She prepared exactly what I asked her and the flavor was amazing, is a beautiful restaurant with really good coffee and food!

The coffee & tea is nice, I also like the simple setups facing the glass wall to the streets which you have a very good look. The service is really nice. This is my choice of using laptop.

Really good sandwiches, pastries, coffee, and chai!! Nice people and service, and they also sell raw local honey from Koiner Farm (great for seasonal allergies!). Next time you want a coffee and a bite, ditch the Starbucks and go here instead. You’ll be way happier!

Love Kefas! Great espresso that's very reasonably priced and the owners/employees are clearly very caring of their customers. They also have a dessert case that always looks amazing every time I'm there!

A very cozy shop with great customer service, good coffee and a chicken salad sandwich with no surprises (no grapes, raisins or cranberries). I would recommend you stop by if you're in the area.

The kids loved it! The coffee tasted so great! The barista was very kind, and put the coffee in two cups and didn’t ask her to! We will definitely come back if we’re in the area.

Absolutely delicious gelato. Got the chocolate gelato and mango sorbet and they were both amazing. Would highly recommend. Best ice cream/gelato in the area.

On July 26,2023 I went into the coffee shop to get a blueberry scone. I had to wait to get service which was no problem. I thank the lady after I got my scone and started to leave . She came up to me and told me her husband use a walker and that I needed to put my walker higher so I would not be bent over when I walk. I told her that my walker was the correct height .I do not know this lady and what type of customer service is that . She needs to mind her business and she does not know what issues I have been having with my health . I left the business feeling hurt and in tears . I will never go back to this place ever. .
