Karin's Cafe - Besthesda

Great place for all sorts of hot and cold good items.

I cannot say enough good things about Karin 's Cafe. I LOVE their BLT sandwiches; they 're the best I 've ever had!! What impresses me the most though is their obvious pride in their work and the food that they prepare. I do not know her name, but the woman who makes the sandwiches does so very carefully, piece by piece. It 's the little things that make a difference...for example, she hand selects each lettuce leaf, makes sure that they 're bright and crisp and fresh, and even shakes any moisture off the leaves and/or blots them on a paper towel so your sandwich isn 't soggy. She then wraps each sandwich so neatly and carefully, and they always look great and taste amazing. I always place the same order, so when they see my phone number they now just ask how many sandwiches I need that day and they already know exactly how I want them BLT on toasted whole wheat with extra mayonnaise . Customer service like that is hard to find these days and really does make you feel good. Both ladies always smile when they see me and ask how I 'm doing. If I don 't order for a while, the next time I come in they ask if I am o.k., if I was on vacation, etc., and are so sweet. I enjoy supporting a small business like Karin 's rather than a huge corporate conglomerate that ships in pre-packaged food or poor quality ingredients or that has employees who don 't really care and just slap something together. Karin 's is just the opposite. The food at Karin 's is always fantastic, the ladies are wonderful, and the prices are affordable!

Their BLT's are amazing!! Cheap prices, in such an expensive area. Eat lunch here regularly.

Great little place to get a quick soda, or coffee. .
