"Had a simple, wholesome breakfast at Le Pain Quotidien in DC. I ordered the avocado tartine along with a fresh fruit bowl. The avocado was ripe and generously spread, topped with sliced avocado and light seasoning, served on their rustic bread. The bread had a good texture and felt hearty, which worked well with the avocado. The fruit bowl was fresh and colorful, with a nice mix of berries and fruit — light, refreshing, and not overly sweet. It paired well with the tartine and made the meal feel balanced rather than heavy. The overall vibe was calm and relaxed, perfect for a quiet breakfast or light lunch. This is a good spot if you’re looking for clean, simple food made with quality ingredients rather than anything overly fancy or rich."

"We ordered breakfast items to go as we wanted to eat at our hotel. The croissants were great and the goat cheese and mushroom omelette was very good. The doughnut and Madeline’s were among the best I’ve tasted. The Dutch pancakes were delicious. It’s expensive but it’s DC."

"Was disappointed with the service. The waitress served cutlery on used napkins and didn’t clean the table as she didn’t think the table was dirty. Matcha latte was bland, tasted like warm milk. Food and drink served in cracked bowls. I found piece of rotten lettuce in the sandwich. Ordered water and never came. We were still eating and the waitress came to ask us to pay."

"Fantastic place for a lowkey lunch in DC! This location is cozy and clean, and the food is solid. Great spot to sip a coffee or chat with friends. My soccer team likes to stop by after our games, and Rocky and Kelvin are always so friendly and attentive. Highly recommend!"

"I’m looking forward to going back to get the warm grain bowl! Also, if you really want to go crazy on dessert, try the crookie! Croissant married to a cookie. Yum-o!"
