It was a great place to grab brunch, with just the right vibe, amazing pastries options, and a varied menu. Service can be a little slow but acceptable.
The food was just perfect, the schnitzel was delicious and cooked just right! I righly recommend it.
Drinks took a while, but they were good. Also, make sure to try a few different ones.
Lovely spot just steps away from the frenzy of Georgetown where you can get a little taste of European cafe life. I like coming here for breakfast before the crowds arrive. It gets packed! Especially if it’s a sunny day and you want to sit on the patio. The pastries are nice. Love the little tea sandwiches.
Loved Kafe Leopold! If you want a euro-experience in the heart of DC then this is the place for you. The food was delicious and the service was great. We can’t remember her name but the waitress from Estonia was very nice! I highly reccomend the schnitzel with the limonberry sauce. I wish they had free refills on the soda but the euro-portions of soda was part of the experience!
If you're looking for a wonderful place to spend a nice day, look no further than Kafe Leopold. This cozy cafe offers a variety of delicious dishes, from entrees and breakfasts to pastries and desserts. Trust me, you won't want to miss their Chocolate Temptation - it's heavenly! The staff at Kafe Leopold are warm and professional, and the service is impeccable. My wife and I had a blast there, and we can't wait to go back the next time we're in DC.
We visited Georgetown for a work event and had reservations for lunch. The space is on the smaller side but very open, bright and decorated nicely with bright colors. When you first enter you will be mesmerised with the dessert choices on display. I know I was in for a treat. Our server was very attentive. I ordered french toast and scrambled eggs and of course a black forest cake. The eggs were soft and fluffy and not over cooked, the french toast was uniquely made stuffed with blueberries and strawberries with a strawberries syrup. Oh so delicious, I enjoyed my meal and would definitely return and recommend.
The Schnitzel was great, but the service was a little slow (I'm being nit-picky). But...I shouldn't have to go all the back to the kitchen to use Apple pay for the bill. However, the waitress was nice and the atmosphere was good. Dog friendly too!
Busy little cafe with thoughtfully crafted breakfast items. I went with a large group and was able to sample a good portion of the menu. Everything was good, especially the spatzle. I didn’t, however, quite like the Austrian coffee with milk. Not sure why but it didn’t sit well with me. They also have plenty of cakes to choose from. We chose the green one with strawberries. It was very sweet but the strawberries mellowed out the sweetness a bit.
Kafe Leopold is a gem. I had breakfast multiple times and dinner once and the food is spectacular. The atmosphere and ambience are very nice, and the staff are extremely kind and welcoming. For breakfast I had the almond croissant, soft boiled eggs, and the Belgian waffle. All were excellent. For dinner I had the bratwurst and the celery sauerkraut, both excellent. For dessert I had the affogato with rum which was a tasty and delicious treat to end my meal. The somewhat hidden location on a cobblestone Georgetown side street only adds to the unique charm of this great restaurant. I can't wait to return very soon.
This is my favorite place to brunch in DC; the sweet brunch menu is all delicious. As a big dessert person, I love that they have many shared and individual desserts to choose from. The pastry chef, Luigi Herve, makes only marvels.
I gave 4 stars for service merely because though attentive, the waiters each time I went either were frighteningly polite, almost obsequious, as though they would be tormented if their smile were to break, or commented on my large appetite (female), which is due to my weightlifting regimen.
Anyway, the food is impeccable, delicious, and interesting. I cannot recommend this place more if you need brunch or lunch in DC.
Got a recommendation to try Kafe Leopold and was not disappointed. I love Austrian food and this was such a treat to try. The service was great and I loved the vibe of the restaurant. I enjoyed everything I ordered and will definitely be going back!
