Extra Perks Coffee Shop and Cafe

Hello Extra Perks ,Food was great atmosphere was amazing and coming down from NYC and being apart of the hospitality industry for over 15 years. I was in total awl About how a server conducted herself.I HAD A SERVER TOTAL DISREGARD ME and my guest AFTER INTRODUCING HERSELF. AND HAVE ANOTHER SERVER COMING TO ME APOLOGIZING TO ME ABOUT THE SITUATION. How the previous serve acted with explanation. I totally do not understand why a server will conduct herself like that. Especially if she's working for tips. Server should never assume who will be coming down. Maybe it's from past experience. Respect one another. Especially if you do not know who they are or know where they are coming from. I would have a experience FOH Manager running the front. And not having a manager /Server doing everything

Hayden breakfast here everyday while staying in Alexandria over the weekend. The food is amazing. Best breakfast I've had in a long time.

All depends who you get behind the counter. I was running low on energy so asked for the most caffeine they could put in one cup. She asked me again to be sure, then gave me decaf. Baffling. I still give three stars because it’s local and charming.

Thursday morning ordered the bacon, egg and cheese breakfast sandwich. Cheese was simply placed on the English muffin and not melted at all. When I asked for it to be melted they melted it in the microwave to the point where the cheese nearly evaporated into the bread. The bacon was the “pre cooked” super processed bacon such as the Oscar Meyer brand. The butter for my toast was impossible to spread because it was nearly frozen. The coffee tasted burnt. Just overall terrible lazily made breakfast. I’m super disappointed and almost angry I spent my money here.

Crowded when I went so it took a while to get my food. The food we ordered tasted great, the breakfast platter was large but the fish and chips would have been better with one more piece of fish since the pieces were kind of small. Sorry i forgot to take a photo of the fish

Went here after driving around hungry looking for a good breakfast place, needless to say the place definitely didn’t disappoint, the waiters were all very sweet, the owner was there and was very welcoming. The food was amazing I would definitely recommend this place.Thanks again for the amazing breakfast 😘

I've been coming here longer than I can remember. When I worked close by for lunch and often on the weekend for their brunch. Awesome people, awesome place, awesome food. I make it a point to stop in and enjoy a meal or quick tuna sandwich whenever I'm home visiting! Great to see you guys were still here!!!

The coffee is great. I have only ever ordered the iced coffee though, but it is excellent quality. The staff is friendly every time I visited. And the Shepherd's Pie was very good for the price. The seating outside is very pleasant as well.

It's relatively cheap and pretty quick if you order in. Staff is all super friendly. Food is nothing super special except they do have my favorite thing ever which are the British Baked Beans! I also love that you can buy the cans there....because not going to lie to add it as a side is a little overpriced especially if you can buy the can for just a little more and have more servings too...

The place is good for quick lunch. They have broad selection of lunch options for any taste. I decided to try crab and mushroom quiche. It was good but the pastry was too wet. The location is good. As usual in Alexandria they have problems with parking. Service is ok.

Went in here sight unseen hoping for a decent late lunch. It didn’t disappoint. I enjoyed my spinach quiche and pea & ham soup. Don’t be put off by the decor. The food is good.

This place is great! I love their breakfast and their super fast and friendly! My only problem and it’s a small one; it is hard to move around without hitting someone else’s table! I highly suggest eating here and then walking down to the River gate park near by! Love this breakfast place! Recommend the French toast or the Full British breakfast!

Great local spot for good coffee, breakfast and brunch! I always try to stop in when I’m in town. It’s a special little place that may remind you of simpler times.

Friendly, fast service. Enjoyed the waffle and all. Sausage was great. Diner feel with local flare

Extra Perks is a neighborhood cafe owned by a British couple. The space itself is large and looks like an old school, no frills diner. You order in the front and bring your food and drinks to one of the nearby tables. They have a HUGE menu. I ordered an iced latte and it was meh. Nothing to write home about. However, if you have ties to England they sell a variety of products from the UK in their store
