Food 3.7/5 Ambiance/Service 5/5 This is an amazing cafe to work/study from as well as meet up friends for a quick snack. The interior design and ambiance of the cafe is quite spacious! The cost of the food can add up for sure - but I do think that the portions are bot bad (good P-P ratio). read more

A great bunch place, chain or otherwise! I recently went here with a friend for a weekend brunch and had a good experience. We were able to order and get our food quickly and get seats, despite Tatte being busy. The costs were reasonable for our portion sizes and everything was beautifully plated. I got the tomato basil soup and the lamb hash and both were delicious. The tomato basil soup was rich and creamy; however, the roll could have been better. My lamb hash was perfectly cooked, well-seasoned, and paired perfectly with the potatoes. The labneh, herbs, and the tomato salad added delicious freshness to the hash, and the challah served as a great vessel for eating the hash. I tried my friend's spinach, Jerusalem artichoke, and egg plate, and it was also tasty, with properly done eggs and hearty bread. I would recommend Tatte for your next weekend brunch! read more

Tatte has become a recent staple in my diet due their delicious sparkling matcha lemonade, which is made of matcha, simple syrup, lemon juice, and sparkling water. It's refreshing and not overly sweet and low in calories. Their food is equally as good..my favorites is their breakfast croissant sandwich and their chicken pita sandwich. And the packaging of my online orders is superb! Plus..this specific location is near to one of gyms I currently frequent...and it's always a pleasure to pop in here after a vigorous workout. The customer service is always kind, efficient, and open to making suggestions and recommendations on their menu. The location is clean with plenty of natural light. Highly recommend! One constructive feedback: they should notify their customers if an item is no longer available (orders placed through Uber eats, online, etc.) prior to having it delivered. And promptly update their menu selection online to reflect current availability of items. read more

I was surprised to see this was a local chain with a handful of locations. Garage parking is the option. If you go to Wegmans (across the street) and pick up an item you can get a validation. Semi busy on a Monday late morning around 11. Spacious with modern decor and high ceilings. They have an abundant number of options. Overwhelming in a good way. We ordered a Croissant, Pain Au Chocolat, Brownie and Apple Streusel. All were excellent with the Streusel standing out. Enjoyed my Skim Cappucino also. Service was quick with friendly people working behind the counter. Worth the stop for tasty coffee and a great variety of plates/bowls, sandwiches, salads and baked goods.

I friend treated me to the one in Bethesda a couple months ago. Decided to try the one in Old Town closer to home. Nice pleasant atmosphere, good service, and a delicious toasted turkey avocado sandwich for lunch. Was looking for a bagel and locs with cream cheese but the sandwich made the cut. Will add this to my rotation. read more

I haven't been into a Tatte I didn't like! Loved coming here on a Saturday in the late afternoon. No line and we could sit outside! Enjoyed my drink and they were very accommodating! The guy who was making our drinks asked if we liked more chai or more milk! How lucky were we?! I'll definitely come back and relax there. I want to grab one of those cute sweater shirts too! read more

I am a Big Tatte fan and always enjoy my brunches and snacks here! My friends and I had a nice experience at this Tatte in a very cool little alcove in Tenleytown. As usual, the staff were very kind and attentive. Great service! The Meze breakfast was a huge highlight. I loved the unique spreads that went perfectly with the sesame-coated Jerusalem bagel, especially the whipped feta. The Shakshuka was also a star! I wish the bread has been grilled a bit better--it was too soggy. I was let down by the carrot cake, which was stale. But the pain au chocolat was a stunner! We love to see it. This is a great, clean, and delicious brunch place! Excited for more! read more

A group of friends and I went to the I Street location yesterday after running the SC Rock and Roll 5K. I love Tatte and have been to the one in Bethesda and Wisconsin Ave since they have come to DC area. Their food is always on point and I typically get goodies to go. My favorite are the kouign amann which they were out of yesterday. I also love this House latte. My visit yesterday I got the salmon and egg breakfast sandwich with house latte. My main issue with Tatte is seating. Trying to get a seat can be tricky and you have to be patient if you want to dine in. read more

A nice Tatte location! Fairly crowded when I was there but service was not too slow. The drink (house latte) was well made too. (3/15/25)

Another Tatte has opened here a few days ago. Top of the line pastries and bread with excellent coffees here. Eat at inside and/or outside tables. Price-wise a little high but each foods I got were excellent. Just in front of newly opened Wegman's and now we have great choice for a breakfast or little sweet time. read more

This place is buuuuuusy. We got out food almost immediately (a pastry and avocado toast), but we were almost finished with our food before our coffee was ready. We sat at the bar and noticed a few chairs were taken up by backpacks, but no owners. After sitting for a while we realized the backpacks belonged to maybe the owner or someone in charge - he kept coming back to his backpack and then stood near a wall just observed. It was kind of weird and we thought it was kinda of rude to take up seats when it was so busy and people were looking for places to sit. read more

This Tate opened not long ago in a newly developed area south of the Tenleytown metro - still developing actually - with several all new apartment buildings and more restaurants and retail stores to come. It's in a nice modern space a cross from a huge Wegman's, with plenty of counter and table seating both in and outdoors. The breakfast menu is mostly sandwiches but the bakery is quite good - they have my favorite bakery item - the palmiere, the best I've seen in DC area bakeries so far, thin, flakey and super buttery. The apple turnover not bad either. Not cheap at $4 each but worth the splurge. read more

I got a black sesame latte and pastry, both were very unique and tasty. The interior design is very grand and photogenic, great for Instagram pictures! The cashier was very sweet after we asked for her recommendation between two chocolate pastries we were trying to decide on, she enticingly described the layers of the one she convinced us to choose..it did not disappoint, she did a good job convincing us read more

If you've been to one Tatte in DC, this isn't any different in terms of what is offered. What sets this one apart is....the wait times! There are always people here but it is never "busy" when I come! I love it. After spending who knows how many hours of my life waiting in line at other Tattes around DC (looking at you, Foggy Bottom location), I always make it a point to come to this location. I was sad that some of their seasonal offerings ran out a little earlier this year (the pistachio latte, sigh), but their signature halva latte is a winner anytime of year. (This place is still always 5 stars for me but I will note when I went the other week and ordered some lemon loaf for my daughter, it was SO dense and dry. Chalking it up to a fluke because everything else I've ever gotten here is awesome). read more

Getting here was an interesting experience. It is in an apartment complex (one of those mini city communities). We parked in a neighborhood nearby and walked over. Both of the sandwiches we ordered were really good! Coffee and tea was OK, nothing remarkable. However the pastries were remarkable! We got a few pastries to go and they were very good. Servers were kind. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating. Order at counter & choose seat vibe. We did not have to wait in line to order. read more

Oh my goodness!!! The smell as soon as you walk into the cafe is heaven!! I love the aroma of fresh coffee and bakery treats. It's a huge wide variety of what to get and eat. I wanted something light for breakfast because I was going to an interview this morning. Being a New Yorker and seeing the different flavors of cheesecake I had to try it since I'm a Juniors lover!! The first bit was to die for!!! I couldn't even wait for my coffee because it was gone in no time!!! The latte is very rich! Next time I may have to ask for extra syrup but it was still delicious. The customer service is amazing and great! The scenery and sitting is great! I'll definitely be back to visit and try some more of their amazing selection of food and drinks. read more

The food and ambiance were good but their offering of plastic petrochemical cups for water rather than safe and ecologically-friendly paper cups makes me wonder about their commitment to human health. read more

How can you serve RAW eggs? The temperature of both menu items Savory French Toast and Fattush Salad were not safe. 1.) The Savory French Toast had RAW EGG YOLKS and "end of the package" bacon. It was SOOO disappointing from the last time I ordered this. That time it was in the morning... maybe a manager was overseeing the chef so it was high quality then??? Today's DoorDash order was unacceptable! 2.) The Fattoush Salad was inedible with its chewy croutons and mushy blocks of feta cheese. The roll was cold... it was as if they made the salad earlier today then realized the feta cheese was not cold so they put it in the freezer??? There was an abundance of herbs dumped all throughout the salad. Yuck 3.) The latte with vanilla syrup tasted like warmed vanilla syrup milk. Where's the coffee??? What is going on with the lack of care given to preparing good quality food at THIS location? RAW EGGS ARE NOT SAFE!!! read more

First time trying Tatte's-Lovely cafe. Food was delicious-def need to add extra egg for the sandwich to balance the bread ratio. Brownie was perfect and cheesecake wasn't bad. I will def go back. read more

Tatte is just a gem of a place. You're always going to get good coffee or a good pastry here. I've been maybe 10 times in the last year and have only ever not liked one thing. It is pretty inside and outside. Great for meeting up and talking or sitting alone and studying in a peaceful cafe environment. I love their cappuccinos and the fruit tarts but you really can't go wrong with any of their stuff- definitely worth trying. Always a great place to take visiting loved ones too. read more

Tatte is originally from Boston and has several locations in Massachusetts as well as DC. I've visited a Tatte location in DC twice and it's so tiny that I don't feel like I'll ever get a table. This new location is larger and not in downtown DC, so I GOT A TABLE! I visited this morning with a friend; we wanted a cup of coffee (and I wanted a nosh) before we went to a couple of museums in the area. We each got a coffee (americano for me, cappuccino for him), and I got a cheese boureka. The cafe looks like the others - cute, modern, with a vintage, Parisian-y vibe. Customer service at the counter where you order was good, and my warmed up boureka and our coffees were out to us very quickly. It was great to get a chance to sit at a Tatte! If I'd known we were going and that it was larger and there would be free tables (at 9:15-9:30 on a Saturday), I would have come hungry and ordered a proper breakfast (halloumi sunnyside breakfast sandwich, lamb hash, shakshuka, ...!) I'd happily return to order and eat at a table! read more

Food, was amazing but service is definitely lacking...waited over 40 min for my order to come out on a day with no crowd. Don't come hungry!

Tatte is not cheap and if I take in consideration the service is not really worth it. I just had lunch here and kindly asked the young lady that brought me my plate to wipe the table where I was sitting because it was sticky from food and she gave me a look without saying anything and never came to wipe down my table. Even my dog gets a better treatment where he eats! read more

food is way below my expectation. Service is terrible. I will not return back to this location. I ordered a macchiato. My servant spilled it out when serving, messing the saucer and losing about 1/4 of the coffee (see photo). He only said "oops" and walked away. I would expect they make a new one for compensation. read more

Baked goods always look tempting & there is a big selection. But they're expensive & not always fresh. Met a friend for coffee and tried a cinnamon roll. While it was well made, it tasted a bit stale. read more

Tatte never misses! I can always rely on them for great food. The food came out pretty quickly. Only reason I deducted a star was because the music was a bit too loud for my liking and it was difficult to study. I would definitely recommend going here as a brunch place -- plenty of outdoor and indoor seating and the staff is friendly! read more

This is such a pleasant lively place. We've been several times and in general the food is very pleasant. Today however I ordered the turkey and avocado sandwich and was extremely disappointed. It had all the right ingredients but it had maybe and ounce of turkey! I know places are cutting back on everything but I would rather pay $5 more and feel like I actually had lunch. read more

By now there seem to be many Tatte's in DC, this is the second one I am reviewing. Like the U Street Corridor one, the ambience is bright, with elegant-understated white tiles across the walls, big windows, and ceiling fans. The hot chocolate is very nice, and their muesli bowl was tasty, albeit very short on the muesli and rich on the yoghurt. Luckily, they have honey at their supplements stand that I could add once I was left with plenty of yoghurt and nothing else. read more

A great bakery and coffee shop. Everyone who works at Tatte is friendly and efficient. The coffee is hot, strong, and delicious! The matcha isn't sweet at all, it's perfect. We'll go back next time we are in DC. A treat! read more

I am very excited that this place opened here. One of my best friends is blind, and this location is near her house. They were super accommodating when we came. A person helped me with getting a good table and moving chairs, and the staff modified her meal to make it easier for her to eat. I also cannot eat gluten or dairy, and they have gluten free bread and a whole gluten free menu! The lamb shakshuka was so good. They made sure to remove dairy from it too. I'm excited to make this one of our regular spots! read more

Have been excited for this location to open but had a disappointing experience so I'm not sure we'll go back. Was told they couldn't take any more espresso orders because they were backed up. Never been turned away at a coffee shop for trying to order coffee before. Bizarre. read more

First, the food and coffee are great. However, I strongly recommend you do not visit this location. I drove up front and dropped off my wife to order food, with my newborn twins in the car. A security guard immediately walked up and told me I could not wait in front of the restaurant and told me to drive around the block until my wife was ready. That's fine - even though this was Tuesday at 10am and there is no traffic; and even though there was a police car parked there picking up food, same as me. But the security is incredibly unpleasant. When I came back to pick up my wife, who was walking out the door with our breakfast, the security immediately walked up and gave me shit and told me I need to be driving around the block. The car door is open and my wife is halfway in the car, how am I supposed to drive around? Or is the idea that all pick up and drop off is strictly prohibited? Maybe post some signs? Ridge Square/Tatte should have a talk with security (particularly the unpleasant security guard working 3/7/2023 at 10am). They're a bit overzealous in their enforcement and this location won't exactly be a magnet for foot traffic any time soon. read more
