Idylwood Commons

Under construction. Opening in 2027.

What we're building

Our main floor is becoming a coffee bar and community room, about 1,000 square feet, open to the whole neighborhood. Come for good coffee and a seat. You don't have to belong to the church, and nobody will give you a sales pitch.

Planned hours

Monday through Saturday, 7 am to 3 pm. Sunday, 8 am to 1 pm. We'll post final hours before we open.

What the room is for

Espresso, drip coffee and tea all day, with wifi and tables for anyone who needs a place to work or meet. Neighborhood groups, support groups, book clubs, small concerts and art shows can use the room too.

Help from friends

Ridgetop Coffee & Tea, the coffee ministry of Riverside Presbyterian Church in Sterling, gave us their original espresso machine and offered to help train our staff. We're also part of National Capital Presbytery's Missional Incubator.

Where things stand

Right now we're in construction, then we will be hiring a ministry lead and a barista, then a soft opening before the full launch in Spring of 2027

How to help

Casey Thompson's sermon Write the Vision explains why we're doing this. To help, or to ask about using the room, call the church at 703-573-3027. or email idylwoodpastor@idylwoodchurch.org
