  Tucked in the heart of historic Old Town Alexandria on S Union street ( a block from the water) is a gem of a cafe serving amazing organic coffee and quality dishes, crepes (yum!) and pastries. We tried the savory crepes and they were out of this world!! Perfectly made stuffed with prosciutto, tomato and right amount of cheese. The butternut squash bisque was delicious. You can taste the freshness and butternut flavors. Friendly service and nice ambiance for coffee and good food. We will return and try the wine selection next time.

  I was very excited when I walked in because the space is incredible and ambiance is perfect. The person who took my order was extremely exhausted so she got a lot of it wrong. I ordered a flat white (she didn't ask the size) and they came out with a honking 16oz cup filled to the brim. Wow. A flat white is usually 5oz so I was confused. If a cafe isn't going to have traditional drinks, they should label them properly. I got the quiche Lorraine for there and it was just loaded with cheese I had to scrape most of it off - it was barely edible. I asked for 2 baked goods to go and she had to squeeze them into a mini bag. Overall, I was disappointed and will be going to other cafes in the area next time.

  Looking for a lunch spot off of the main street in Old Town, Yelp led us to Cafe Du Soleil. It wasn't what we expected and we probably won't go back. Here's why: 1) Food: They sell crepes and other items. My wife ordered a crepe with vegetables and I the croque madame. Neither were great and mine came with a cheaply fried egg rather than a poached one. The winner was our daughter's quiche lorraine and the Nutella crepe. Also, their prices are high for mediocre food. 2) Service: It was not very friendly, impatient and didn't seem to like the fact that our five-year-old daughter was with us. 3) Space: It's small and inside a large building with other businesses. The space is decorated poorly and is dark. 4) Location: It's off of King Street and near the water, which was a win!

  I moved to old town from Seattle and finding good coffee hasn’t been the easiest feat. This place is truly a hidden gem. They don’t have a sign that hangs perpendicularly to the building so you have to be close to notice it. Excellent coffee & fantastic food! I love the savory crepes (smoked salmon & prosciutto are so tasty!) and I feel like I taste summer joy every time I have an iced oat milk coconut latte. The staff are so friendly and welcoming and the atmosphere is wonderful. I love the exposed brick wall and how they have a variety of seating (couch, small tables, medium tables, high bar, and outdoor). Good for social gatherings & working. Wifi is available and there are plenty of outlets.

  We have ordered crepes and coffee. Both were delicious and worth every penny . The atmosphere was nice , and music playing was pleasant and not super loud. The food came out quickly as well. I’ll go back here again
