    I kind of feel like this is some strange hybrid of old-school diner meets futuristic Japanese vending station. There's so much sleek metal, yet the employees here are all efficient Asians. I faced some not inconsiderable cognitive dissonance upon walking in. All I needed after a couple of extremely long days, and a few hours of being out and about town in the stifling heat, was a cup of iced coffee to keep me going. At just over $2.20, the single-size cup I was offered was definitely caffeinated enough to have me feeling pretty perky, although not quite as bouncing-of-the-walls jittery that Baked and Wired's iced lattes do. I was able to get about an hour of work done from one of the incredibly small tables, and the outlets nearby let me charge my laptop while I was at it. Unfortunately, since I was on a conference call for most of that time, the space was less conducive to my productivity. Whatever music was playing, they had cranked up to volumes that made hearing my phone an extreme challenge. I suppose you take the good with the bad. Refreshed, caffeinated, and chilled (they keep the air conditioning on in here... like whoa), I was able to face the remaining two meetings of my evening. I call that a nominal success.

    The paper that was in the Tomato Feta Soup - 16oz

    Unfortunately I went there for lunch this after noon There was paper in my food this place is normally great but this time I got my appetite ruined from paper in the soup kitchen staff please be more careful thanks

    After freezing for two hours straight in a meeting next door, I needed to defrost myself with some soup. Pret A Manger tomato feta soup was the nearest solution, and a perfect solution it was. Hot, flavorful, and for $4.95 and 110 calories, the small soup helped warm me from icicle back into human form. Unfortunately, the cafe blasts its air conditioning equally strong, but the outdoor tables were pleasant. The busy Farragut West Station escalators are just at the entrance to this Pret and wifi is free.

    Almond Croissant and small drip coffee

    Conveniently located off the Farragut West metro and the lines are rarely ever long. Definitely download their app for perks like free bakery items or coffee/tea drinks. Their pastries are so good and bakes fresh daily. The cashiers are friendly and willing to help out. My favorites are their almond croissant and the summer salads. The drip coffee is quite good with just the right amount of bean to water ratio and is served hot and steamy! I wish they were everywhere!!!

    Organic coffee you!! It's very inexpensive for this area, especially being organic. It's just about three blocks from many attractions, worth the walk. Great customer service by the way.

    "pot o' goodness." They really need to be more descriptive-I thought the apple shreddings were cucumber.
    Yujin M.

    The first time I walked in here to grab breakfast to go, I left empty handed as nothing really seemed enticing enough for the price. But it's so conveniently located, I was determined to take the plunge and find a go-to breakfast option. This may not be a problem for those who are familiar with Pret A Manger's offerings, but really, they should be a little more clear with their labels. My first attempt was an "energy bagel." While it is possible I just missed the description, I was dismayed to find raisins plugged into my bagel. Also, when they ask if you want your bagel toasted, you may want to specify that you also want it halved. When I opened my little bag in my office, I found a whole, uncut bagel that was slightly toasted on the outside. The texture is also not very bagel-like, but more like a softish bread in the shape of a doughnut. My second attempt was a "pot o' goodness." Blame my poor logical skills, but for some reason I thought the green slivers on the yogurt were sliced cucumbers, and I thought Pret A Manger had stumbled upon an unusual pairing of cucumbers, granola, yogurt, and brown sugar, and I was intrigued. The green stuff turned out, more sensibly, to be slivers of green apples. It was good enough, but at over 3.50 for a very small bowl, I don't think this will be a regular. So I have yet to find my go-to breakfast option at Pret A Manger, but I want to believe there is potential. Stay tuned for an update once I've found it!

    What a wonderful destination to arrive at as you exit the Farragut West metro station (blue line). This place almost has a bright Starbuck-est feel to it. The food was oh so delicious. I got the avocado wrap, Mediterranean Seafood Stew, Carrot Cake and Strawberry Lemonade. The Wrap As soon as I bit into the wrap I could taste the freshness. I was happy with every bite. The Stew Typically when I buy soups and stews I have to add pepper to them. This stew had the perfect amount of seasonings, along with enough seafood to have a piece of seafood with every delectable spoonful. The Strawberry Lemonade O to the M to the G. I've never tasted strawberry lemonade this good and over the years I've had a ton of different varieties. The Carrot Cake If I did not open the box to get this little piece of heaven out, you could not have paid me to believe the carrot cake came out of a box. It tasted like it came straight from grandma's kitchen. The cake is kept in the refrigerated section, which is fine with me because I like my carrot cake cold. The Price They are a bit pricey, however I am sure a lot of the cost is calculated into their location. My daughter got the egg salad sandwich, along with a bag of popcorn. She said they were delicious. This meant a lot to me because she is a finicky teenager. My boyfriend got the avocado sandwich, along with the Mediterranean Stew, Ginger Bear (can) and carrot cake. He is also finicky and was thoroughly impressed with the freshness and presentation of his meal. I highly recommend this place and will be going back again.

    Lobster sandwich
    Sabrina W.

    Spontaneously took a detour here before visiting Lincoln's house. Decided to grab a quick bite here, and it was definitely a good choice. Everything seriously tasted fresh. Had a salmon tzatziki flatbread and a Maine lobster roll. Sandwich range from $5-10 dollars but it's definitely worth it. Makes me realize fast food can be just as good as restaurants. Also their chai lattes was really good. They steep the tea bag and make it. Healthier choice than Starbucks. A great grab and go place or even a casual dine in place. It's so fresh, you could buy it, unwrap it and tell your date you decided to cook for them.

    Happiest place on earth.
    Greg B.

    Happiest Place on Earth? This shop was crowded (for a good reason) but it was a good crowd. The manager, barista, and the rest of the staff went way out of their way to make sure that everybody was having a good time and not at all stressed out by the buzz in the room. I had a crisp and fluffy chocolate croissant (made on-site every hour), berry topped yogurt, and a coffee. The rest of the clan had various pre-prepared breakfast sandwiches that all tasted fresh as well. The portions were not huge, but the prices were more than reasonable, so consider me pleased. As we walked out the door, we were bid farewell with a chorus of Thank-you's for visiting.

    Bacon and egg baguette with coffee. Best breakfast ever.
    Stacy W.

    This is my go to place for lunch. It's fast, the food is fresh and already made and the employees are wonderful. Today I got one of their new items - the roasted beet and sweet pea hummus sandwich. I received an email about their new items and was excited to try them. I will definitely be getting this again. It's FULL of roasted beets, tons of Parmesan cheese, and a little hint of mint (so if you're not a fan of mint, don't get it). It's seriously delicious. I also got my favorite chocolate chip cookie and some OJ to wash it down. If you haven't had their chocolate chip cookies, you are missing out. Do yourself a favor and go buy one. Thanks Pret for making the best food in town.

Beautiful atmosphere, wonderful staff, and delicious food -- definitely a spot worth putting on your brunch list. My date made the reservation for us, which turned out to be a very good idea because the restaurant was hopping! Definitely recommend making one ahead of time. We were both in the mood for a cocktail, but decided to explore the mocktail drink menu. He initially considered going with another coffee since it was still early, but ultimately went with an espresso martini. I tried the French 86, and both were great choices. The espresso martini was smooth and well made, while the French 86 was beautifully fruit-forward. And I have to give my date credit -- a man who isn't afraid to try my fruity cocktail! For food, we decided to share the avocado toast to start and added an egg, asking for it to be cooked a little more rather than very runny. We were glad we did because the toast was loaded with greens! It was definitely a little messy to eat, but in the fun, "this is actually delicious" kind of way. Nothing embarrassing... thankfully. He ordered the chicken and waffles, which he completely demolished. The sweet-and-savory combination was a big hit. I went with the French omelette, and it was delicious -- rich, flavorful, and surprisingly filling. I could only manage about half of it along with the salad! Overall, a wonderful brunch experience. The atmosphere is beautiful, the service was attentive, and there were so many tempting dishes coming out of the kitchen that we kept noticing things we wanted to try. I'd definitely come back to explore more of the menu.

    I have not been to the Tabard Inn for more than 20 years. No real reason, just found other…read morerestaurants to go to, I guess. But, this weekend, I needed reservations for a group and they had what I wanted, when I needed it. So, off to the Tabard Inn we went. The restaurant is charming, quaint and old. It leans heavily into its unique character and not without some success. I felt like I was walking into the past. Old worn wood floors, old upholstered furniture that had seen better days, heck, the place even smelled old. But, rather than turn me off, it was comfortable and inviting, kind of like going to your grandma's house where everything looks like a museum but you know you're gonna get some love there. The staff could not be nicer, better, more friendly. They know how to "do" hospitality and do it well. The food was good, very good. I had the pork shank. I am telling you that I could only finish about 1/3 of it because the serving was so large. And the meat was fall of the bone, cut with your fork, tender. The flavor was rich and intense. Great job! The lamb chops looked fantastic. The fried chicken was just okay according to my spouse. Is the Tabard Inn the best restaurant in DC? No and, guess what, it's not trying to be. It is just trying to satisfy the diners. There is no haute cuisine here. Tried and true dishes, prepared very well. The other thing about this restaurant is its flexibility. You want to dress casual? Do it. You looking for a dress up, old fashioned sort of dining room? Yes, that works too. Romantic dinner with your special guy or gal? Absolutely! They seem to satisfy everyone here. And they definitely satisfied me. Will I go back again? Yes absolutely. Do I recommend the Tabard Inn? Of course!

The food is good as well and good attention to detail. It's getting 4 stars because the chicken and waffles were not worth, the chicken tasted like store bought chicken tenders that were crisped up. The french dip poutine was good, but slightly too oily. The pancakes were fantastic though. I would still come back to check out some of their other items.

Novice was the bartender and recommended the Proper burger. I added my typical fries and a Diet Coke. The burger came out quickly. Right off the bat, it's visually amazing. A properly stacked Burger is hard to find. The 2 best things about this burger are 1. The taste , and 2. The form of the burger. The taste is absolutely fantastic. The Gouda paired perfectly with the red onions and the perfectly cooked, juicy beef patties. The aioli was just enough and not overbearing, like looking at a painting of a castle and noticing the subtle blurred background of misty forest. The arugula added another layer of flavor that helped kick this burger into the highest echelons of Burger superiority. And of course, the brioche bun was perfect for this style of burger. It kept its shape while I gently smushed it down in my hands. The entire burger kept its shape and didn't fall apart like some other Burgers will. As I sank my teeth into the first bite, the first thing I noticed was all the flavors blending together. Each bite afterwards just added to my mystified and puzzled bewilderment. The texture was moist and soft. As I chewed and swallowed each morsel, I began to think to myself, is this it? Is my search over? Is this the BEST burger in the country? Never had I tasted such a wonderful burger! (Sorry In-N-Out 2x1, raw onions, chopped chilis, toasted bun, you are no longer on the top of my list). As I neared completion of my newly discovered epitome of gluttonous desires, a feeling of sadness started to take over. I would be done with the burger in a few more bites, and with that, my journey would conclude. I sat there, staring at what would be my final bite. The last bit of pleasure in between my slender fingers, still dripping with the juices God had placed there after it was grilled to perfection in the Kitchen. I placed the final delectable piece into my mouth. I spent what felt like an eternity chewing this treasure before finally gulping down the goblet of wonder. What came after was a feeling of pure bliss. I had finally done it. All the years, all the time dedicated to finding the best Burger ever, is complete. I called my wife and told her "Honey, it's time. I'm coming home." The fries were ok.
