I finally had the chance to sample the baked goods and coffee at Old Soul Co. They’re in the alley between K & L streets, right behind 1716 L Street. If you recall, they were shut down by the County Health Department for lack of a retail permit. Let me just tell you it was worth the wait. The coffee was piping hot and well-caffeinated–no watered-down stuff here. And today’s pastries included a blueberry bran muffin that was full of plump blueberries and flavor, with a slightly crisped top. Also learned that they have bread and rolls available starting at around noon, so stop in over your lunch break if you don’t have time for coffee and pick up something good to take home with you.
