The only requirement as I see it is having Wi-Fi and power outlets, but any B&N has that. I want a real dc coffee shop? I would appreciate the collective wisdom of fellow chowhounds Sun Jun 10 19:02:41 -0700 2007 104439 dkimerling 1 2648033 I'd say Murky Coffee in Capitol Hill and Arlington is the best local coffee shop. They've got wifi, talented baristas, amazing cupcakes and a cool atmosphere. I really like this place.

Another option is SoHo Coffee on P Street in Dupont Circle. If you purchase food or drink for $5 or more you get free wifi. There are tables and one or 2 couches. Outlets all over the place and very cool vibe. The owner or manager (not sure which one he is) is an absolute riot and is probably part of the reason that a lot of regulars keep coming back! And to tope it all off they have a practically addictive chicken salad wrap that makes any studying worthwhile. Mon Jun 11 07:39:17 -0700 2007 2647604 76776 Elyssa 2 2648779 agreed on SoHo.
