Let’s face it: Lots of us can’t get going in the morning without a cup of hot coffee. In Southern Maryland, we’re lucky to have several locally owned coffee shops serving up fresh joe each morning. Some carry pastries, meals, and other treats, while others roast their own beans for a truly one-of-a-kind cup.
Check out these nine coffee shops in the region, and the next time you’re craving a cup of coffee, drink local!
The Beanery Café and Bakery, California
Find breakfast, lunch, and coffee at this newer café in California. You’ll drool over the pictures of pastries on the shop’s Facebook page before you head in to try one.

Mad Moon Café & Lounge, California
Made locally is a big deal at this California café. The coffee is roasted in Virginia in small batches, and the menu includes housemade treats and meals made with as many in-house ingredients as the café can find. The café also hosts live music and consigns local made arts and crafts.

St. Inie’s Coffee, Lexington Park
The coffee beans couldn’t be any fresher at St. Inie’s. All of the beans the shop uses – both for drinks in store and to buy and take home – was roasted in the last 30 days, some in the last seven. The shop offers quiet places to read, a place for families to gather, and used books for sale on the shelves.
