The bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich on the sourdough bread was perfection. Cappuccino was delicious as well! Will visit again.

Cute place for meeting with friends. Enjoying a moment alone, or using computer. Comfy chairs you might never want to leave. Food is avsilable, don't miss your heart foam cappuccino. Didn't get a chance but guess there is a roof top area too!

Pretty good food and enjoyable atmosphere. The cafe has a very lax attitude, order your food, find a spot to sit, whether it’s a couch, a table, or at the bar. The waiters bring your order out when it’s ready. I grabbed brunch here during the day, and liked the sandwich and waffles we ordered. The sandwiches (we got the turkey avocado club) left my taste buds wanting a little more, but were good nonetheless. The cashier lady wasn’t to enthusiastic about recommending food, and was unable to serve us a virgin bloody marry. If I’m in the area, I will probably go back and check them out again.

They make really good coffees and pastries. I personally prefer their blood orange ice tea, see picture. Their service is hit or miss if it’s a busy day it can take a while as the line can be long. If the line isn’t too long it’s pretty fast.

Kaldi's Social House is an immigrant-owned coffee house in downtown Silver Spring. True to the owner's roots, they take the Ethiopian approach of coffee building community. In addition to great coffee and pastries (order their coffee cake), there's plenty of seating for groups and they often host events here for the community.

Fantastic food and coffee with awesome vibe. The latte may be the best I've ever had. The only downside - it is so popular on weekends they need to set up for a second customer service line. Not only would it be better for customers, it would obviously ramp up sales as well.

Food is good and coffee is excellent. Ambience is great especially for those who wants some peace to work on their laptop. Staff is friendly. The challenging part to be here could be parking. Not many parking spots available nearby.

A hip, industrial coffee shop with bar and hookah upstairs. A great place to say for a few hours working or chatting with a friend. And don't let me forget the coffee! So good. Love this place

One of my favorite places. Greaaaaat food. All of the servers are nice, the deserts look and taste fantastic (I keep thinking about that pound cake) and at first I'd only had the chicken & waffles (which while not the "real deal" it's still good & I get it every time I can) I tried a cheeseburger and fries and was very satisfied. The atmosphere is great. It can get crowded being so popular but the seats are comfy with nice sized tables to either socialize or work, it has nice cozy corners (one with a 'fireplace') and a big counter to work at too. So many people I know have never been so I suggest it to everybody.

As others have mentioned, solid coffee and nice ambiance. Taking a class for the week and enjoyed the diversity of people and selection offerings. Knocked a star b/c breakfast sandwich lacked seasoning, but was still okay. I came during the day two separate times and would love to experience the afternoon/evening vibe. Delicious tiramisu

Really large open bar set up with lounge seating threw us off, as we were looking for a restaurant. Got a London Fog tea (hot, milk+Harney&Son's Earl Grey), rice bowl and chicken& waffles. All were awesomely tasty/scumptuous! Place really filled up shortly after 9AM on a SAT. Free weekend parking at the nearby Fenton garage. Scrambled eggs with the chicken & waffles was really savory and creamy/buttery! rice bowl eggs we're medium side up, perfect for the dish, not too runny. A lot of different textures in this rice bowl: crispy brisket, medium dense narrow rice, tangy plump tomatoes, silky soft greens/chimichurri). Silver Spring's eats has come a long way since we moved away 7 yrs ago!

Kaldi's has unquestionably the best coffee in downtown Silver Spring. It's a great place for just about anything: getting work done on a laptop, reading a book, or meeting up with friends to have chat. There's plenty of room and they don't play music obnoxiously loud like other coffee shops. My favorite thing to do there is just to sit at the U-shaped bar in the middle of the space and people-watch.

I really like the atmosphere at this cafe! But the only thing that out matches that is the food! I ordered a turkey sammie while the person I was with order the sliders. Each was delicious in it own right and my latte was also the bomb! Hope to come back soon!

One of the best coffee places around.It has a great ambiance, with enough space.Recommendation to not go on weekend evenings if you want a quiet place ; since upstairs is a bar/pub

There is a special place in my heart for Kaldi's. My wife and I met here on our first date in 2016. We wound up moving into the neighborhood in 2018, and we were able to go here more often.The coffee is fantastic, the sandwiches are full and delicious, and the pastries (especially the pumpkin, banana, and zucchini breads) are moist and delectable.Plus, if you have some work to get done, there is plenty of space to do that also.

Always a hit. The food is simple but thought out and the coffee is great. Definitely one of my favorite spots to have lunch, have a coffee or tea, or do some work. I could write a second review about the nightlife side but I’ll be brief. I’ve had many awesome nights with hookah and dancing at Kaldis. Just gotta see what the vibe is going to be on a particular night because they have different music depending on the day. Overall, Kaldis has become a staple in the community and o recommend you check them out!

This place is very chill. There's seating outside on good days of course. Nice place to study or work on projects. Loved the way the coffee comes in cute mugs. Upstairs has hookah which is pretty expensive as hookah always is. The vibe upstairs is different from downstairs. It all depends on what you are coming in for.

Kaldis's is great. I don't drink much coffee so I can't comment on their coffee but I do enjoy their selection of teas. Mango black tea is my favorite. It's one of my go to study spots. It's usually pretty busy, but great atmosphere. Its especially nice when the weather is nice and they open the sliding glass to open up the space. They've recently renovated the place and have added a ton of comfortable seating. Finding an open seat shouldn't be an issue. Also you have to try their coffee cake or cheese cake, both are excellent!Edit: They've added some new breakfast and lunch items. The Big Fat Daddy was really good, and big enough you could probably split it between two people.

I LOVE Kaldi's! The space, seating, bar, atmosphere and coffee are wonderful. One of the best aspects is that there is no annoying music playing in the shop. All you hear is the indistinct murmur of conversation and it isn't deafening like so many other coffee shops are now. The coffee and pastries are great. I'm definitely coming back.

Great coffee and just a wonderful place to relax in the middle of Silver Spring. The rooftop is amazing and relaxing when it is open. I always feel comfortable there. It does get crowded and you may have to wait a little bit for your coffee but I think it is worth it.

Really good place for quality coffee and espresso, probably your best option in silver spring MD. I have been at least 10 times, and the quality is consistently good. If you can, try to visit in the afternoon - the barista dude who generally works afternoons is fantastic at pulling shots. Plenty of seating options, including the bar/counter, couches, tables and spots near the windows. The men's bathroom is generally quite clean.

Kaldi’s has my favorite breakfast of all time. The spinach Florentine waffle is so decadent and delicious, I would eat it every day if I could. They’ve recently renovated since I was last there and there is more table space, which I love. Only recommendation is don’t get he hot cinnamon tea. It does taste a bit like Fireball. Ha! Everything else is top notch.

They have free WiFi and don't rush you to leave once you are done eating. Next visit to silver spring I will be back .

This is a local coffee spot that I like to visit for their cafe americano and breakfast menu, lunch is decent. The atmosphere here is chilled and this is a good to read a book, work on the computer, or have a conversation. The chairs away from the bar are comfortable if one just wants to lean back and talk. However, ergonomically their depth and height make it difficult to eat or finish writing that novel (Faster Than The Speed of Love) on the laptop since one has to lean forward to meet the table. I find myself shifting around lot or waiting for a bar seat to open up.

Very good coffee, not good baked goods, which were previously excellent until they lost their baker. I tried Ground Cafe around the corner on Sligo, which was good on both counts. I but it's been closed for the last month or so.

After the latest renovation I thought it would be cool. Not. After 10 am on weekends it’s completely full/crowded and there does not appear to be anyone assigned to clean the floor and tables. The food is good, but I see the place before I order and most times I just get out of line and go elsewhere.😪
