1DUA DC Coffee

Specialty espresso drinks
923 15th St NW, Washington, DC 20005$1–10
CoffeeIndonesian espresso drinks; specialty coffee identity

DUA DC Coffee pairs an industrial-vibe coffeehouse with Indonesian espresso drinks and a listed $1–10 range.

Why it stands out: Indonesian espresso drinks and specialty positioning give the menu a distinctive coffee angle.
Consider: Afternoon closing times and unverified seating or Wi-Fi make work planning uncertain.
