"I often stop in to Lightning for my morning latte on my morning commute. The team is always courteous and fast and the coffee delicious. They use espresso from a local coffee roaster- and you can taste the difference. The prices are reasonable for the best coffee in the area. Stop in!"

"Very nice coffee and reasonable prices. Great seating. Perfect AC on a hot day. Friendly staff."

"Went for the first time this week and was highly impressed! They have a lot of interesting seasonal/monthly drinks that I can’t wait to try more of. The barista was very friendly and I appreciated her recommendations (a warm sticky bun hit the spot!). Smaller but good assortment of pastries and they have some other breakfast food options that look fun too. I’ll definitely be back!"

"Excellent coffee, a handful of breakfast options, baked goods, LOT of space to work. Friendly service. Right on top of the Rosslyn Metro, right next to Gold's Gym."

"The drip coffee is good, and the specialty drinks sound and look great. The breakfast sandwich The Otto was pretty amazing. Didn’t expect that much flavor. Kind of messy, in a proper good sandwich way so might want to enjoy with a knife, fork and napkin nearby."
