A great place to have lunch or a cup of coffee and snack and look out at the sculpture garden and skating rink in the winter or fountain in the summer.

Easy way to get lunch in an atmosphere that was as least cooler than outside. Food was good for what we expected. Cold drinks. Very nice people behind the counters.

We were surprised by how good the food was. We got the Lemon-tarragon chicken salad sandwich and the spinach and mushroom quiche. Both were tasty. The staff was courteous and helpful. Beautiful to sit outside.

This was a great place to rest and re-energize after a busy walking day in DC. The coffee was delicious and the atmosphere and views were amazing. The location is phenomenal and super convenient regardless of what you're viewing in DC.

The food itself is a little lacking. It's not bad, but it definitely feels like museum quality food. However, the location itself, the overall feel inside, and service, make this a perfect stop. Especially on hot summer days, this cafe feels like an oasis.

Great place to relax between museums. Food/price is okay and the place is really clean with a/c and lots of tables.

The food was very good and price wise, It was also very reasonable. The restaurant had a very nice clear view to some of the sculptures outside. Or you can eat outside. The food itself is a little deceiving. It looks like it’s going to be just pretty basic, but it’s was actually very flavorful.

Ordered the pepperoni pizza with a cinnamon bun. Tasted pretty good. Loved the atmosphere and the service was amazing. Perfect spot to relax and take in the view.

Really great food! There was a long wait during rush hour on a weekend but it is normal. I highly recommend the Chicken Flatbread, it was amazing! Outside it was really hot, but the view was great. You can also sit inside the restaurant. I am probably in the background of some peoples photos while they were taking pics of that tree lol

★★★★★ 5/5
It was the only place open near the museums that is not a food truck. The meal is box salads and sandwiches. Very good large size. Also, carbonated drinks and beer. Indoor and outside seating. Nice fountains with modern art right by it and lots of concrete seats around the water to eat your food. It closes at 4 pm and opens at 11 am. Love the structure of the building and no masks needed.
