    Pistachio Cherry Tart
    Alison M.

    I love Tatte. It's pricey but good quality. There seem to be about 20 in DC now. It's really grown. This time we had our baby and I wasn't impressed with the lack of sides or anything to get for her. We asked for two eggs scrambled with cheese but were told we'd have to buy an egg prosciutto sandwich for $11 and tell them we didn't want any of the items. Um, no. The tuna sandwich asked for lettuce and told can't add lettuce. My husband asked for something not on his lamb pita, same story. Oh well. No customization at all, no subs. Makes business easier, but not as attractive for price point for customers. I'll remember to keep it to coffee and pastries from now on. Chicken pita was good, a bit heavy on the parsley but loved the dressing. Tuna sandwich was a hit. Pastries are always good. My pistachio latte was chewy bc it had grainy bits of pistachio in it. Not to my liking. $70 for three sandwiches, two coffees and two cookies.

    Assorted pastries.

    I arrived here for breakfast since my hotel I was staying at was within minutes of this bakery. Unfortunately, the stove was down here so I wasn't able to order a hot breakfast but made do with pastries and a black sesame cafe latte. Both items were yummy and of the highest quality. The interior is roomy, decorated modern and the staff is friendly and accommodating. The eatery has a coffee bar located towards the back and has a sizable dining room. Service by the entire staff was courteous and efficient. I really enjoyed my experience here and will visit their other locations in the D.C. area.

    I was looking for a place to get a quick breakfast while staying in DC and saw this pop up. The breakfast sandwich was excellent and even better was the homemade scone that I ate later in the day as a snack.The scone was probably one of the beat I've had. I also had a great latte too. This location is pretty busy but still got my order prepared quickly.

    Broccolini & Squash Hummus Pita
    Lily F.

    We got the broccolini & hummus squash pita. It was fantastic! I was expecting it to be messy what with it being all stuffed inside the pita, but it held together perfectly (no mess!). I also got an Americano, and it was excellent--on par with my regular coffee haunts. It was quite busy when we arrived, with a line of 7-8 people. However, I was up to the register in under 10 minutes, and they had both our coffee & food to us within 20 minutes after that. Impressive!

    We got the pistachio latte and croissant and both were delightful. However compared to other locations, this one was incredibly busy. Luckily we were able to find a table but it certainly felt like all of DC was present here. The latte was exactly what I needed on a cold day.

    Great food! Great people!!! The atmosphere is great at the West End! Tatte Bakery & Cafe is one of my wife and I favorite places to eat when we visit DC. Turkey BLAT with no bacon or avocado is my go to sandwich with the oatmeal and walnut cookie and an espresso double shot.

    Interior

    Charming interior, feels like a really clean subway station. Kind staff. Order at counter, take a number and wait for food delivery, bus table yourself. Nice breakfast menu. I had a breakfast sanwich: eggs my way, bacon, and cheese on sourdough toast. And, a bottle of tgeir mint lemonade. Sandwich was delicious. Eggs cooked as requested. Nice experience.

    Short Rib Grilled Cheese Sandwich
    Ashley T.

    Everything was fantastic! That grilled cheese is great. I got it without the horseradish sauce. My bf devoured the hash. He wanted seconds! Service was fast.

    We love Tatte from trips to Boston and knew this would be a kid-friendly option on this trip. We went early, arriving a bit before 8am which was definitely the right decision. It was calm and easy to find a table, but by the time we left, it was wildly crowded and unenjoyable, especially to tackle with a toddler. For drinks, we got the black sesame latte and the pistachio latte, both were on their seasonal menu and both were delicious. We also grabbed a few of their pastries, and the favorite at the table was the jelly filled donut. Avocado toast was just okay, but the poached eggs on top were done perfectly and I felt that the prices were fair.

    Pastries selection
    Steven H.

    Good service. Loved the natural light that comes into the bakery making it very bright. Abundance of seats with a patio outside. Pastries were good, short rib grilled cheese was on point, and their iced pistachio latte was tasty.

    After dinner at a Thai restaurant in DC, I took a breezy walk through DuPont Circle and stopped for a sweet treat. There's something about Washington, D.C. at night -- the air feels thoughtful, almost intentional. The circle was alive but calm, and the simple act of walking without rushing felt like a quiet luxury. The dessert? Perfect. The breeze? Even better. Sometimes growth isn't just boardrooms and deadlines. Sometimes it's a slow walk, good food, and allowing yourself to enjoy the moment. #WashingtonDC #DuPontCircle #FounderLife #LegacyInMotion #EveningReflections

    Lemon Blueberry Pavlova
    John F.

    Was in town and wandered in to get a dessert to go. The Lemon Blueberry Pavlova looked interesting, and it was light like air. Never had anything like that and I was researching recipes after trying it. Counter service was efficient. Went back to my hotel so I didn't get a chance to experience the atmosphere. The dessert case has a lot of options. You could spend hours here and gain so much weight, but it would be worth it.

    Orange upside down cake
    Sally M.

    I came here to meet my second mother / grief counselor / Stephen Minister, on my last trip to DC, and we both loved Tatte! I see I already added one photo of my orange tart to Yelp, as you can see, and I also took a not aesthetically pleasing photo of a delicious Kouign Amann, that I tried on a separate day, that I will defer to other Yelpers to visually portray, as my photo is not as good as theirs, though my pastry was as equally delicious. ;) It's a popular venue, with fast service, and tables inside & outside, but you could be waiting awhile, given its deliciousness & its popularity!

The folks on this side were very sweet and helpful. When we went over to "Wired" to get our coffees, there were a bunch of *other* treats over there, which nobody told us about, so that was annoying because then we would have ordered way fewer items. So we got a couple more goodies here as well as our iced coffees and a hot cocoa for our kiddo. The folks on this side were unfriendly and uninterested in customer service ("Just checking in on our quiche...?";"Oh, we totally forgot. We'll put it in now."). We weren't impressed with most of our items though some were better than others. Unsurprisingly, the cupcakes were the best; we got the nutella and "unicorn" ones, and both were moist with excellent frostings. We especially appreciated the filling in the nutella. The chocolate chip cookie was terrible--our daughter, a cookie fiend, refused to have another bite of it. We liked the novelty of the "orange dream" shortcake. As for the other stuff, the spicy sausage biscuit was not spicy at all and had the consistency of rubber. The quiche that finally came out was too oily, but we all liked the decadent cinnamon roll. Bit of a mixed bag all around, so we're settling on three stars. We ourselves won't be back, but others might have a better experience on a different day.

They were playing bossa and jazz. I opted for the Aren latte and Indonesian beef rissole. Aren latte: 5/5 Latte with an in-house made Aren (palm sugar from West Java) for that hint of molasses and dark brown sugar This was one of my favorite coffees I've had in a while. There was a delicious coffee taste not overshadowed but rather enhanced by the smoky sweet taste of the Aren. I'll be thinking about this latte for a while. Indonesian beef rissole: 3/5 Batter-like skin rolled in breadcrumbs filled with savory ground halal beef & sautéed vegetables While I've never had this dish before, I googled pictures of what it should look like, and mine seemed to have significantly less meat than it should've. The taste was still delicious and seasoned and hearty, but it was mostly mush with some veggies and hardly any beef. While I thought the rissole was disappointing, I love the aren latte so much I'll still keep the 5 star review.

We also ordered the Platanachos (plantain nachos), which were flavorful and such a fun twist on traditional nachos.
