☕️ CNCT Coffee Review: For Five - Navy Yard

80 M St SE

For Five is a bold name for a coffee shop that offers basically nothing for less than $6. The only coffee drink you can get for $5 is drip coffee, which is a bit ridiculous, but I digress. This is a great networking coffee spot IF the weather is nice. They have a great outdoor patio with a nice view of Navy Yard, or you can take your coffee to go and do a networking walk down by the Anacostia. If it’s cold or rainy out, this is not a good spot for networking.

CNCT’s Ratings

• Coffee: ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ - drip coffee is very tasty + great tea options

• Food: ⭐⭐⭐☆☆ (light pastries, nothing beyond the basics)

• Speed: ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ quick because I got drip. Lattes can take awhile if busy

• Ambiance: ⭐⭐⭐☆☆ tiny storefront but solid outdoor seating when the weather’s good

• Accessibility from the Hill: ⭐⭐⭐☆☆ 10 minute walk from the House side

Overall: 3.4/5 — If the weather is nice, round up to 4 stars. If it’s not, round down to 3.
