Location and hours are good, and are probably what keep them in business. Other than that, there is little to recommend them. Prepackaged snacks are often out of date. Coffee is weak and depending on time of day may have been sitting for a while. Forget about getting a sandwich or anything fresh-made, because they are always out of stock. The staff has never been rude to me, but they clearly don't really want to be there and have to be prodded into doing anything but the absolute minimum.
If it's 6:00 a.m. and you absolutely have to get a cup of coffee before hopping on a bus at Rockville Metro Station, this is the closest place to do it. If you have a little bit of extra time, however, you'll get better service and better quality product elsewhere.

I would usually give a place like this 3 stars, but since the coffee I bought here saved my life multiple times in high school I have to add an extra star for convenience and early open times. The old man who runs it is usually nice to people he thinks are Indian or Middle Eastern, but is rather rude to everyone else.

Convenient but NOT courteous! The staff, especially the two young women I encountered today, were surly and abrupt. They are poorly stocked. We purchased milk last week that was curdled. If possible, I recommend you walk a short distance to CVS on Rockville Pike to do your shopping. I must note, however, that there is an older Ethiopian gentleman is very courteous and will often walk around the store to find what you need. Unfortunately, his staff do not share his good customer service skills.

I really don't understand what anyone sees in this place. They resell Dunkin Donuts' donuts, which get reused on Saturday from friday. They never have anything other than a light roast coffee. Several times they couldn't make change for a 20, the bathrooms are disgusting, neighborhood junkies hang out there all the time, the food is terrible... I could just keep going. The only thing this place has going for it, is the proximity to the metro.
