"I was so grateful for Capital One Café - Anacostia because they provided lunches tonight which helped me because I didn't have lunch today. I'm a Federal Government employee caught up in the shutdown waiting to get paid AFTER GOING TO WORK for the last 43 straight days as an EXCEPTED employee. Thank you to Larry, Mike, Student Ambassadors, and the Capital One Café - Anacostia staff!"

"I didn't know Capital One had cafes, and if you have a Capital One card, it's half off. The coffee was really good. The one I went to has a landmark from the old neighborhood. I met with Larry, and he gave me the rundown on what they do for the community and for their customers. It's definitely a good spot to work or decompress. They also have a conference room for projects or meetings."

"With more than 50 cafes across the United States, the Anacostia cafe is the first one in a low to moderate income neighborhood (explained to me by a staff member as I walked into this location). Located in the heart of historic Anacostia at the corner of Good Hope and MLK Ave SE, here's my experience: 1) Space: Located on the first level of new development, the space is new. When you walk in, you pass two Capital One ATMs. Open two more glass doors to enter the cafe. It's set up like a Peet's coffee shop with a large open industrial room with plenty of tables, each with outlets. It's well-kept and inviting. 2) Menu: The cafe functions like a Peet's coffee shop with a full coffee menu from drip coffee to vanilla lattes. They have pastries and other food items for sale and an area with packaged snacks (some are locally made). If you're Capital One card holder, you get 50% off on drinks making this the best coffee deal in the area. Coffee drinks comes in medium and large sizes. 3) Service: The staff are friendly, energetic and passionate. The moment I walked in, a staff member named Jordan walked me through the set up and mission. She was so helpful as were every staff I interacted with. It seems like a great team! 4) Amenities: They have strong, free wifi, outlets everywhere and two rooms that will open in the new year (pending the new strand of covid). One room is first-come first-served for quiet work space. The other is a meeting room that is set up for eight people for free use by students and non-profits. Restrooms are in the back and kept clean. 5) Community: According to the staff, they are invested in the community. In addition to a free meeting room for local students and non-profits, they offer financial literacy classes for neighbors."

"Very pleasant staff. ATM available and does dispense $1bills as well as $100 bills. Clean. Save environmental. Enforces rules of no sleeping and panhandling"

"I came here for studying around 11 am, and staffs welcome me when I entered. I could focus on studying in the good environment. When I order Espresso, one of the staff pay for me. I don't expect to get the same service for the next time, but I spent great time here."
