Currently, the vehicle and the tent is located near DSW. The menu seems to be super limited, only offering water bottles, the petit fours, the pocket pies, and the cookies.

There was literally a long line, wrapped around the Pentagon Row; some fans came with their Hello Kitty paraphernalia, such as towels, umbrellas, and head gear. +super limited cafe menu +friendly staff

Vernon Avenue are filled with vendors of antique, vintage, thrift, artisan, clothing, homegoods, and more. We also feature local bakers and coffee roasters, and weather-permitting we have adoptable pets from the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria. Our market is all year 'round but we do cancel (and do not reschedule) for inclimate weather.

Since moving to the DMV I have been trying to get out more and explore. I wanted to try this place…read morefor so long and just finally had my first experience. I want to kick myself for letting it take this long. It is always so vibrant here, tons of people coming and going. Ample parking, both on and off street. A bunch of outside seating and just a crowd that is happy to be here. Then, inside, get ready for a sensory overload. All the aromas from all the different stalls will make you second guess where you will grab some grub. Then you might also want to graze...err, I mean browse on what to take home. I love exploring this place. I wandered around for quite some time until I zeroed in on where to eat. Even though this place is always so busy, it feels intimate enough to be alone in a sea of people. With that, I give you review 4400!

We decided to do our own little food tour within the market and sample some bites from a few stalls. We tried: 1. Masala dosa from Sambar & Spice. This may have been one of the best dosas I've ever had, and I'm not exaggerating. So epic! A must try, 2. Chicken dumplings from Laobun - soft, freshly prepared and melt in your mouth good. Also affordable! 3. Fish tacos from the famous seafood spot. These were sadly my least favorite item on our little food tour, the slaw was overpowering but if removed the pan seared fish was flavorless. 4. Wrapped up with some matcha and iced coffee - can't go wrong with those. Enjoyed browsing the little artisan stalls as well. An amazing stop on my trip to DC!

For the look and quality of this place, the tickets should honestly be free. Every room felt extremely cheaply made and poorly maintained. The bubble room didn't even have the bubble machines working when we went. The ball pit room smelled like rancid kids' feet and just felt dirty overall. The entire building felt cheap and underwhelming. It was a complete waste of our money and time, and we were in and out within 25 minutes. I absolutely do NOT recommend this place. Extremely embarrassing for an attraction that charges people to come experience it.
