    Shotted Coffee’s first drive-thru is now open in West Falls Church. The grand opening is Saturday, August 8, 2026 at 6 p.m., and Shotted says the first 100 customers will receive a free latte and a tote bag. The café is at 7393 Route 29 inside the Shops at West Falls Church.

    The move gives Shotted a very different kind of location. Its Northern Virginia shops grew through mall traffic and late-night café culture. This one can catch commuters through the drive-thru while still giving customers room to sit, work and meet inside.

    Where is the new Shotted Coffee in West Falls Church?

    The café is at 7393 Route 29, Falls Church, VA 22042. The standalone building sits in the Shops at West Falls Church and already had a drive-thru lane from its time as Compass Coffee.

    Fairfax County issued a sign permit for the address on June 30. The county record lists new building-mounted signs for “Shotted Coffee,” “Shotted Coffee Drive Thru” and “Shotted Specialty Coffee.” DC Spot visited the finished café on July 31 and photographed the storefront, drive-thru, seating and menu.

    The shop is on Route 29, not inside the new West Falls development. It is a short drive from the West Falls Church Metro station, but Shotted has not published store-specific transit or parking guidance.

    Why this Shotted location is different

    This is Shotted’s first standalone drive-thru. The company started as a pop-up in 2019 and opened a Tysons Corner Center kiosk in 2020 before expanding to additional mall locations.

    Founder and CEO Bandar Alhenaki told FFXnow that the West Falls Church model is built around convenience and morning commuters. That is a shift from the brand’s mall cafés, where customers often stay for dessert, conversation or a late-night drink.

    The West Falls Church café carries the core menu people know from Shotted’s other locations. Shotted describes itself as a Saudi-inspired café concept, with coffee and community at the center.
