Cafe 8 holds a special place in my heart because it reminds me of home. Everything is affordable, the food is good, and the drinks are strong and reasonably priced. The vibe is just nice and relaxed, not what you typically get in other parts of DC. The people are relaxed, and the staff is helpful and really tries to cater to you. I have nothing bad to say about it! I’m so glad you all expanded and got the place next door. I hadn’t been in over a year, and when I walked in, I was pleasantly surprised. You all know your customer base and exactly what we like to eat, drink, hear, and watch. I wish you much success, and I’ll be loyal to you as long as I’m living in Southeast!
