In recent weeks, the new Kahvie coffee shop has opened in the Vie Towers at University Town Center, adding to the thriving coffee scene along the Route 1 corridor.
After two soft openings to test its setup, the coffee shop recently opened with set hours through the summer. Among the changes: Instead of selling grinds from Grand Havana, it features freshly roasted Lone Light Coffee from Charlottesville, Va.
General Manager Sarah Nicotra told the Hyattsville Wire that the menu still includes a number of specialty drinks, including a matcha latte, hot chocolate with added collagen protein “to revitalize your skin, hair, nails and joints,” a turmeric latte and a blue latte with a “ginger tinge.”
Kahvie also specializes in coffee foam art, examples of which can be found on its well-curated Instagram page.
The cafe’s interior is very airy, featuring stone, wood and glass and even a moss wall, making it a good spot for your own Instagrams.
Located at 6515 Belcrest Road, the cafe will be open 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday through Sunday. It will expand hours in the fall when student residents return to the towers.
