Got my coffee to go and the lady at the front was so nice!! The coffee was also great, I got a latte and it was both beautiful and tasted so gooddd!!! My mom also got a muffin which I tried and their bakery is great!! The atmosphere is so comfy and nice and if you would prefer your coffee to go and sit outside there is an area right in front of the espresso bar with benches, tables and a child play area! Overall such a nice coffee bar with and amazing atmosphere!🥹💞

Natives/Tourists/Passerby- Run, don't walk to the Lot 38 coffee shop! This must be your first pitstop in Navy Yard. Do yourself a favor and skip those gross burnt bean chains with sketchy customer service where you feel like you're interrupting them as they forget your order. IYKYK. Instead, head over to family-owned Lot 38, opened and operated by the sweetest folks who know the Navy Yard area well. Corner of L and 2nd SE on the same side of the street as the lobby of the Courtyard Marriott and across from the park. The espresso brews fresh and the coffee drinks are consistently a 10/10. Lo

Such a cute spot! Almost hidden and the location is a little awkward but it has such a nice sitting area upstairs and the coffee is great. The staff was a little rude but when there was a mistake in our order the barista remade it right away! I would definitely recommend this place over places like The Compass, coffee is so much better and the place is not nearly as busy.

The owners of Lot 38 are so friendly and welcoming. The breakfast sandwiches are so good, we keep coming back here whenever we’re in the area now that we don’t live here anymore. SEG is to go to.
