Our Story: Steeped in tradition. Built on quality. Powered by family.

Affogato Europa Cafe opened its doors with a clear mission: to bring exceptional European coffee and traditional Balkan flavors to the heart of Fredericksburg.

Our family-run café is a labor of love. Pastries are handmade by our mom using cherished family recipes, and every detail — from a perfect espresso to a made-to-order panini — is crafted to offer guests something genuine and comforting.

Authentic European-style espresso drinks made with precision on our Slayer machine.
Traditional pastries baked fresh daily using family recipes from the Balkans.
Refreshing, nutrient-dense smoothies and acai bowls made with organic fruits and no added sweeteners.
Sweet crepes topped with classic European spreads and fillings.
Savory paninis made to order that perfectly blend together the flavors of smoked Balkan meats, cheeses, and fresh produce.
Eight rotating ice cream flavors to pair with espresso for rich, creamy affogatos — our namesake treat.

This business stands on the values of family, culture, and community. We're proud to share a taste of Europe right here in Virginia — one handcrafted item at a time.
