    Absolutely love Tatte! I got an iced vanilla latte and it was so yummy! I've ordered quite a few of the bakery items and they have been pretty fresh and tasty.

    Favorite place every time I'm in the office. It's my go to for the breakfast croissant sandwich and a matcha latte! I also love the brownies. The service is also fast and kind.

    2nd time I've visited a Tatte. First time was in Boston. Tatte is a very inviting modern bakery and cafe with mostly white and black decor. We went for a late Thursday breakfast (~9:30) and were able to find some seating but they were at 90%+ capacity. We crammed our group of four into a spot normally meant for 2-3 people. Seating is at a premium as there are people using the restaurant as a place to work out of because they serve coffee. It's a bit of an odd dynamic since people need to sit to eat and sometimes tables are occupied by laptops instead of dining patrons. The food: Lamb Meatball Shakshuka - I had the regular Shakshuka the first time visiting, since I wanted to try the original. Stewed tomatoes with eggs served with toast. I think the lamb is a nice upgrade since the meat cuts the acidity of the tomato, and there is just a lot of tomato. Strawberry & Raspberry Cheesecake Cup - this delivers exactly what I would want for a cheesecake in a cup. Cheesecake is in the middle of for texture between fluffy and very dense cheesecake. Sesame Latte - an interesting drink fusion - coffee with black sesame. I think this is fairly well balanced with it tasting a little like black sesame and a little like coffee. Pistachio and Ham & Cheese Croissants - we asked these to be heated prior to eating. I thought they were slightly crusty on the outside, inside was soft without much structure (a little flat). They were ok and I liked the Pistachio one better. Overall, a solid, clean and modern place to get a beverage or meal. They offer some unique items to make things interesting.

    I have been to 3 different Tatte cafes in DC and I've loved my experience in all of them. The decor and vibes on the inside have been consistently clean and welcoming. Definitely a European vibe. Service is always quick and consistent with great recommendations. I got the chicken soup this time and the chocolate mouse. I love the dark chocolate mouse cale so so much.

    Yum! I wish I could leave it at that, everything was delicious. I loved that Tatte was within walking distance of the hotel. The bakery case was full of same day cakes, bread, lemon tastes, donuts, puff pastry, granola dnd so much more. I started with avocado toast and chai to control my need to overeat pastries, but when on vacation, eat the scratch made treats! The donuts were so fluffy and fresh, overfilled with greasy cream loved every bite. Oh and the staff were so friendly.

    If you're looking for a café that feels like you've stepped off a cobblestone street somewhere in Europe, this is the spot. The moment I walked in, I got those cozy, old-world vibes--warm lighting, a relaxed atmosphere, and the kind of charm that makes you want to linger a little longer. The coffee? Excellent. Smooth, rich, and clearly made by people who care about their craft. Their pastry case is dangerous in the best way, and I tried the pistachio croissant on this visit. It wasn't bad at all--light, flaky, and just the right touch of sweetness. It's also a great space for lunch. Plenty of room, calm energy, and a perfect place to unwind, catch up with a friend, or get a little work done. Overall, great spot that brings a taste of Europe right into the neighborhood. I'll definitely be back!

    Take me to Tatte!! First discovered Tatte Bakery & Cafe in Boston. One of my favorites for breakfast in the northeast. Pastry chef Tzurit Or initially started Tatte Bakery & Café in 2007 bringing home baked treats to sell at local Boston farmers' markets. After just one summer, Tatte opened its first brick-and-mortar bakery in Brookline. Love how comfortable each location feels despite being so popular. Wish there was one in Houston. Grab a menu and a table, not necessarily in that order. Order a breakfast (served all day), a weekend brunch or shakshuka. The Meze Breakfast was a great brunch spread. Two eggs with small sides of house made cashew pepper spread, feta & pistachio spread, roasted shishito pepper, dukkah and a chopped salad. Served with a fresh sesame Jerusalem bagel. Perfect way to start the weekend. Like shakshuka? Try a Traditional, Corn and Spinach or Lamb Meatball. Note, this is not your grandmother's shakshuka. The Corn and Spinach Shakshuka was so good. It's my favorite! Creamy corn sauce with baby spinach and poached eggs topped with heirloom cherry tomatoes, feta cheese, zhoug, Aleppo chili oil, and parsley. Served with a spoon and slices of sourdough to soak up that delicious sauce. Definitely get this one. The Lamb Meatball & Labneh Shakshuka was gobbled up by my husband. A tomato and bell pepper base with poached eggs, lamb meatballs, and peppadew peppers topped with spicy labneh and parsley. Served with a house made challah bread to start off your Saturday the right way. Service was great even though they were quite busy on a sunny summer Saturday in July.

    Raspberry Yogurt Meringue Cloud (GF)

    This Tatte location is just a 12-minute walk from the Amtrak Union Station, making it a great option to grab a bite after a long train ride. I did just that and got three things: a matcha latte, a raspberry yogurt meringue cookie, and the roasted salmon winter vegetable bowl, which altogether was $28. I actually wish I could have tried their seasonal pumpkin latte but they were out, so I panicked and ordered the matcha lol. I didn't know until after I had ordered that they also had a seasonal pistachio latte, I wish I had ordered that instead because I thought the matcha latte was just okay. It was pretty smooth matcha but not sweet enough for me. I used to be a meringue hater until I had actually good meringue that is crispy and melts in your mouth, so I was excited to try their raspberry meringue cookie thing but it wasn't quite the texture I imagined it would be. Well it also has yogurt in it so maybe that's why the texture was not like your typical meringue. It was low key making me a meringue hater again lol Okay I know so far it seems like I didn't really enjoy Tatte that much, but the roasted salmon bowl was excellent! Right when they bring it out to you, you are met with incredible aromas from the dish. The salmon is perfectly cooked and is slightly crispy on the top. At first I was worried about the low salmon to rice ratio, but it ended up not being a problem because the rice is well seasoned. I probably honestly could have very well enjoyed just the rice even without the salmon, that's how good the rice tasted! I didn't get it this time, but I know their pistachio croissant is good here. Overall I like Tatte, great service and great vibes. I'm still sitting in here to write this review lol, I mean I look around and there are several others who are also working here on their laptops. Two restrooms at the front of the restaurant behind the counter where you order your food. Bonus points to this location for playing Kina Grannis' song "In Your Arms" wow what a throwback!!! AAPI song artist representation lets gooo

    Lamb Meatball & Labneh Shakshuka
    Ben D.

    Another great Tatte in area the macha and lamb shakshouka are my go tos they have so much on menu and service is usually very nice and fast. Matcha is nice and rich with milk but bitterness of the mach balances it out giving it depth. The lamb shakshouka was nice and savory with a tomato sauce and eggs. The lamb was nice and tender with good seasoning. It is a classic coffee breakfast place inside with pastries and a ton of different drinks.

    Traditional Shakshuka
    Amy Y.

    The drinks here are delicious and so are the breakfast items. We went here twice during our short weekend trip to DC. First time we got the lamb hash and I normally do not like lamb, 10/10. Second time we got the traditional shakshuka also a 10/10. Whoever recommended the fig lemonade in the below comments, may your pillow always be cold. It was delicious! The coffee here was solid too and my kids enjoyed the Nutella and short bread cookies. Omg I just found out they are opening a location in Morristown NJ. Yes!!!!!

    Chicken Salad Sandwich
    Glow S.

    Absolutely incredible ! The best selection of baked goods and a great place to have lunch before heading out to airport. I had to try the chicken salad sandwich it was amazing and their iced tea selection is just as good

    Love this spot, it is a must on any trip to DC. Fresh salads and lunch options, and delectable desserts.

    A spacious cafe with nice selections of bread and pastries. Their food options are really nice also. It is quite popular and busy, but the service was nice. There are counter seatings along the window, a large communal style table, and 2 tops. All the seatings don't give you much space in between, but I was there with my daughter and we went there for brunch before heading to museums so it was okay for us.

    Are there outlets here to plug in phones/laptops?

    I don’t think so i only saw people on their laptops inside.

    How wheelchairs accessible is your business is it ADA compliance?

    not accessible. they only offer stairs. you could sit outside on a nice day and have a friend go in and order for you but that's not making their business accessible.

    Is it wheelchair accessible?

    They are wheelchair accessible! They aren't street level but there is a lift there.

    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.

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!

As someone who works in the industry and is very familiar with coffee and coffee shops, I was genuinely shocked by how rude and unprofessional the staff was. I ordered a house latte with an extra double shot, which made it a quad shot, and I also paid for extra ice and requested that it be served in a large cup. It wasn't a complicated order. When I saw a drink come up, I politely asked, "Is that mine by any chance?" The barista immediately told me to "hush" and said, "I'm not talking to you." I found that incredibly disrespectful and completely unacceptable. When my drink was finally handed to me, I simply asked if the quad shot had been added since I had paid extra for it. Instead of answering my question, the barista ignored me entirely, and another employee had to respond. The employee, Taleisha Young, who was wearing glasses, was especially rude throughout the interaction. No customer should be spoken to that way, especially when they're simply asking about an order they paid extra to customize. Customer service and professionalism should be a priority, and this experience fell far below that standard. Unfortunately, I will not be returning, and I will be sharing my experience on other review platforms as well. I hope management addresses the behavior of its staff so other customers don't have a similar experience.

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.

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.
