    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!

    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 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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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!

They are open until 1 PM on Saturdays, we reached at around 11:30 AM and I was half hoping for them to be out of most items. Fortunately, even though they were super packed, we were able to find all of the items we were looking for - thanks to the hard working staff as they continue to make their pastries until closing - unlike so many other bakeries these days that make a certain amount and call it a day! Now to the food, everything we had was absolutely phenomenal! I am not a donut person but I loved theirs as they were very flavorful and weren't too sweet. I definitely prefer their Ube and Pandan over the Black sesame donut. The Matcha chocolate croissant and the Ube Kouign Amann were my favorites of the bunch! I cannot recommend them enough, this will surely be my first stop every time I am in DC!

The interior is small but cozy- there's also some seats/tables outside. I ordered the savory scone and a chocolate croissant and they were both delicious. The scone had cheese, mushroom, and chives which all worked nicely together. The texture on the croissant is peak. Perfectly crunchy/buttery exterior with satisfying soft chew in the middle. The chocolate in the middle was the perfect amount and wasn't too sweet either. For drinks, their syrups are also made in the house too! I ordered the Chai and at first I asked for half the syrup because I'm not a fan of drinks that are too sweet, but the person who took my order assured me that it's not too sweet to begin with and she was right! The spices in the syrup were delicious Nice ambiance, friendly service, and delicious baked goods! Overall, one of my favorite bakeries I've ever been to.

We ended up picking out four of their pastries and coffee drinks to have breakfast on-site as a family. In our typical tradition, we cut everything into fourths and the whole family tries every pastry (everyone wins... ;). We thoroughly enjoyed both the savory and sweet (chocolate) options. I could see how this would be an acquired taste for some. I loved being able to peak into the kitchen to see the big oven and where all the magic happens. I also appreciated their sweet neighborhood location and the big windows offering lots of natural light. Overall, a positive and tasty experience.

    I recently had time to explore a little while in DC, and a charming PINK building caught my eye…read morewhile taking a walk. I had absolutely no plans on buying or eating cake that day, but as a cake lover stuff happens. It was such a cute building the pastries had to be everything! It turned out to be the perfect stop. 1. The looks The building itself is so cute on the outside, and being a fan of the color pink, it instantly caught my attention. Inside, it feels less like a fast, high volume bakery and more like an intimate cake boutique. It gives small town where the owners know you by your first name. You can feel that real love was put into the space and the baking. Tasted like every ingredient was hand mixed, every cake hand frosted, and every cookie carefully hand scooped. They even served my slice of coconut cake on a real plate, which was such a cute, bourgeois touch that I loved. 2. Service The hospitality here is top-notch. On my first visit, yes you heard me! Lol! The gentleman Eric who rang me up was incredibly knowledgeable about all the different cookie and cake flavors. I ended up returning the very next day, and although he wasn't there, the other two staff members working which included Mikaela were absolutely delightful and so kind. The young lady told me her daughter loves the carrot cake as well and Mikaela said they started working there because they loved the patties so much! 3. The Cakes -Coconut Cake: This slice was so delicious, fluffy, and airy that it instantly reminded me of being a kid at holiday family meals with a fresh coconut cake on the table. -Carrot Cake: It was everything you want a carrot cake to be. It was nice and dense yet soft, with a pleasant texture from the added fruits. Definitely noticed pineapple bits! The cream cheese frosting wasn't overly thick and was so good you could eat it completely by itself. -Strawberry Cupcakes: I stole a small bite of my son's. unfortunately, this one was my least favorite. The frosting had a little chemical taste to it but it was a super cute cupcake. To answer your question, will I return? Absolutely! If you are in the DC area or planning a trip there soon, check this spot out. It truly feels like a mom and pop or pop and pop boutique. Not a bakery but a BOUTIQUE! Check them out! Tell them Anisha from Milwaukee sent you! (Not that they'd remember it just sounds cute!)

Instead of leaving the logistics to a third-party organizer, Caspian Crust hosts the experience themselves, and it works beautifully. Everyone shares one long Sultan Breakfast table, making it easy to meet new people over incredible food. If you see one of these events, book it. It's absolutely worth it. The Sultan Breakfast was outstanding and there was so much food. The value for the price is incredible. Every dish felt thoughtfully prepared, and I especially appreciated that many of the traditional meat dishes use beef rather than pork. As someone who doesn't eat pork, that made it easy to enjoy nearly everything on the table. One of the unexpected highlights was learning more about the culture. Another guest at our table was from Türkiye, and she shared that breakfast is traditionally enjoyed before coffee. Once I knew that, it completely reset my expectations. Instead of wondering where the coffee was, I got to enjoy an amazing, leisurely breakfast first. There was a little confusion at the end about whether coffee was included with our event, but the staff quickly sorted it out, and we finished with Turkish coffee and a piece of Turkish delight. It ended up being the perfect ending to the meal. I also learned that the owners have family roots in Azerbaijan, which makes a lot of sense once you see the menu. While the restaurant describes itself as Mediterranean, the flavors and breakfast traditions are distinctly Turkish and Azerbaijani, and it is wonderfully authentic.
