One of these was taken, but I grabbed the other, which was, in my opinion, the best seat in the house. Inside, a wooden bench runs the length of the window, a small table at either end.

The front is pretty much all window, with a glass door on the left-hand side and three chairs, plus a table, outside on the pavement. Long and thin, but with high ceilings and generous windows, it’s really bright inside. It’s an amazing space, the sort of coffee shop I’d love to call my local. 14 th Street (also known as MidCity) was the second, opening in 2011.
Peregrine Espresso is a chain of three, all in Washington DC. You can read more of my thoughts after the gallery. You can see what I made of the original Peregrine Espresso at Eastern Market, when I visited in November 2021. November 2021: I’ve learnt that Peregrine’s 14th Street location has closed, although the other two locations are still going strong. Another, along with the decaf, is also available as espresso. The coffee, by the way, is from Counter Culture, with Peregrine offering a number of single-origins on pour-over, one of which is also available as batch brew from 8 to 11 each morning. Since this had included New York and Philadelphia, as well as DC, there was some pretty serious competition! I also had a cinnamon bun with a hat on, which pretty much made my day. The coffee, however, is awesome, Peregrine serving me perhaps the best espresso and filter I’d had on my entire trip. A tiny place from the outside, like any good TARDIS, Peregrine’s bigger on the inside, but still pretty small, with seating limited to a window bench and some small tables and bar stools along the left-hand wall. I’d heard of some good places, but I really wasn’t expecting them to be THIS good! Peregrine Espresso, on 14 th Street in the northwest quarter, was my second stop of a day which started at Filter Coffeehouse & Espresso Bar and was to end at Slipstream. I visited Washington DC in March this year with no great expectations about the coffee.
