Man from uncle with ice cream is great. Crepes here taste like they did in France but choice of flavors is their own, and delicious. Pour over coffee is solid too.
Desi BjornJanuary 21, 2013This place is awesome. Great atmosphere. Love the mod 60's/70's theme and motif. (It's called Coffy after Pam Grier's blackxploitation character).
WayneMay 19, 2013Great place to get some work done. Free wifi and lots of plugs available for power. Especially in the upstairs area. The coffee and crepes are great too and staff is friendly.
Caleb CopelandJuly 9, 2013My favorite coffee spot in Columbia Heights. Try the crepes! Lots of seating and cute decor. Perfect spot for studying/working.
Mario BarrajaNovember 30, 2012Lovely quiet atmosphere (came in at 10:35 am on a week day) wifi, nice staff, nothing fancy and coffee served in grandmas old china. cute. like it
Ahmad ShujaApril 17, 2012Very nice and personable barista. (Note that I said 'personable,' not just 'friendly.') If this place were outside my office, or located on the way to my office, I'd totally come here everyday.
AramJuly 22, 2012Tasty crepes, some of the best coffee in the neighborhood, friendly service and it's got a cute retro vibe going on.
Chris RiethAugust 17, 2018Great place to grab a cup of coffee and lots of space to work during the day
Rita LassiterMarch 22, 2014To curb your sweet craving, try the Sheba Baby crepe (Carmelites strawberries, whipped cream, and caramel drizzle).- Desi BjornJanuary 21, 2013The breakfast combo: egg &cheese croissant, and tea. Croissant is excellent.
Melissa GMarch 5, 2014Cleopatra crepe was amazing, even by non-vegan standards! Good coffee and nice people.
The latte is great!!! Also you can nvr go wrong w/ a nutella crepe. So happy they're open....crepes are my weakness!
This is my new spot....love the Mod Squad savory crepe.....amazing....great flavor!!!!! Nice neighborhood spot!!
Coffy uses the SAME coffee as Filter in Dupont, yet my iced Americano was $1.75 LESS here than at Filter (though Filter's was stronger).
The Cleopatra Jones and Barbarella crepes ALWAYS take me to my happy place! So does a large dirty chai.
Still my favourite coffee shop in Columbia Heights.
Melissa MeyerFebruary 10, 2013I was going to give this place a good review but had to leave after they informed me that laptop users must sit at one of three already-filled tables. The rest of the cafe was only 2/3rds filled.
Anton RudnevSeptember 17, 2016Crepes are thick and tasteless. The variety of fillings could help but isn't worth to.
Christina McCoyApril 3, 2013The wifi is completely out of date, using WEP which my MacBook doesn't play well with, rendering it useless. Please update your services to WPA or get a better router!
Danielle HenryMarch 28, 2014The super salmon crepe was not what I expected, but it was rich and flavorful.
Day #1 was great. Looking forward to coming back this weekend! Philecia is so nice!
- Get coffee and a mini crepe - same goodness but works as light snack
Jose M.October 22, 2012dreadful wifi reception. don't plan to do any work without getting frustrated. tea was good, tho.

"This is not like the open city on Calvert. It's more like a quick cafe spot but the coffee food and pastries are just as amazing and next to the gorgeous cathedral"
