    Vibe in here is nice. I like the 90s/2000s coffee house vibe too much to hate too hard. BUT expensive. I asked for whipped cream and it's so little that it's offensive I was up-charged. :/

    Nice alternative to the chain coffee shops. Coffee is great! I have had the bagel breakfast sandwiches a couple of times they do the trick if you have a craving. The inside of Jacob's is somewhat small inside, and dependent on the time of day, may be difficult to get a tHowever, there is a good size patio and I have always been able to get a seat outside.

    The outdoor patio has the coolest vibe that just can't be matched by most other cafes in the area. The only downside to the patio is that there are no outlets to plugin. So it would be wishful thinking to plan to stay and work here for several hours, especially with my old laptop with a severely dysfunctional battery. I ordered a capuchino with vanilla flavoring . It's my ultimate favorite and I wanted to see the difference in flavor with this cafe. It was awesome and expensive! They have seating inside as well but who would want to be inside on a n awesome Sunday like today?

    Such a cute coffee shop. The location is small on the inside, but they offer plenty of outside seating. The menu had a lot to offer and had accommodations for dietary needs. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable.

    This is for sure one of my favorite coffee place in the DC. Located in one of the most beautiful neighborhoods of the city, this place offers you a cosy and worm place for a cold winter or late fall morning. Old-fashioned interior, great Illy coffee and the variety of pastries, bagels and other types of breakfast or brunch available. Personnel is busy, but very attentive. They also offer their loyalty program and takeout. And if it is too worm and smoky for you inside, enjoy the patio!

    The best neighborhood coffee spot! Everyone knows your name:) Super variety of coffees, REAL bagels, sandwiches, breakfast options, sweets, seasonal drinks . . . Located in a cozy, walkable neighborhood. This is special little place helps us ~ slow down, relax & smile. Thank you Jasmine

    Solid neighborhood spot! Got some tasty breakfast bagels. Service was quick. The vibe seems more of a either pick up or work space - not really a hang out space for a conversation. Lots of folks were working. Felt a bit crowded but other than that, cute little spot.

    The loveliest people, and a real community gathering place. Try the chai and/or the breakfast sandwiches!

    Ran across this place while looking for the UPS store. I was in the mood for some sort of pastry…read moreso, I popped in. This is a very small bakery but, there were many ppl in line so I figured it would be pretty good. I went in for something sweet as it was about 8 in the morning but, there were scones, fresh out of the oven that I had to try. I got the cheddar and chive scones. OmG. So warm and good. Crisp edges and soft and fluffy everywhere else. I ate it in minutes. This would go amazing with a side of pasta. My goodness. 10 out of 10. When I am back in the area, I'll try a warm Blueberry scone.

    We were finally able to make it to Nino's after having it on our list for a long time. We went on a…read moreweekday somewhat after the morning rush, and even then it was still busy! We were lucky enough to snag some goodies and got a bit of everything, we just weren't patient enough to wait to photograph everything. We did the Za'atar Gruyère Croissant, chocolate croissant, the cheese biscuit item they had (don't remember exact name) and the sfogliatelle. I'm in search of the best croissant in DC, so I regret not getting the regular croissant on this visit, but the chocolate croissant gave me an idea of what to expect. Buttery, flaky, crispy, with just the perfect amount of sweetness. The typical chocolate croissant was my personal favorite. When we asked what the most popular items were, we were surprised it wasn't the more classic bakery items, but we enjoyed what we tried. We want to go back soon to try some other items as well. My friend got a coffee and also enjoyed that! This is the perfect place to stop by for a treat if you make it in time!

    The Royal is one of my local go-tos! I've been able to walk in successfully on weeknights but…read morerecommend reservations for weekends. Most recently went as a party of 4 and got the crab beignets, beef arepa, masa gnocci, and parillada for two. Crab beignets were our favorite - perfectly crispy and great flavor. Masa gnocci was a little overcooked this time but still yummy. Beef arepa is a classic dish to get at the royal; two people can easily share one arepa. Parillada was a hearty entree and probably best for 2-3 people. This amount of food altogether was just nice. We probably could have ordered one more thing to be extra full. I don't typically get Latin American food but love all the flavors at this restaurant. Next time will try their breakfast menu!

    Yummy. This is my favorite burger in dc. It is toooooooo good. & the fries are fire too. Seasoned…read moreso nicely. The burger was cooked to a perfect medium rare. It had a beautiful chew with the classic burger toppings with an amazing pairing of their slaw with a garlicy aioli. The bun was very pillowy and soft with a nice crust. They also never lack on their specialty lattes. I got their carrot cake latte and it was just so fabulous. Extremely smooth espresso and perfectly steamed milk. Syrups made in house of course and you can tell. Just a perfect latte. I usually am an iced latte person but I recommend getting their lattes hot. Hits different.
