Garden Cafe — Restaurant in Washington

Tried to order the Greek salad with no feta cheese (I don’t eat dairy) and they said they can’t do that because it’s already made so I settled for a fruit cup. Then I ordered a cold brew (on their menu), they didn’t have cold brew. So I ordered a latte with oat milk. They don’t have oat milk available (also was on their menu). So I settle for a soy milk latte. When I receive my coffee the barista told me she used almond milk because she only had a small amount of soy milk at the bar, I told her I asked for oat or soy, not almond (preference) and almond isn’t even on there menu. She had to get a fresh carton of soy milk and remade my latte with the correct milk, which was fine. It was a lot of huff and puff for just trying to get a quick snack/bite while visiting the museums. It also cost $34 for a small latte, 2 sparkling waters, fruit cup and a small Turkey sandwich.

If you fancy a light snack in a nice environment, have a go at this café, although don't expect...

Probably the worst experience of my entire trip to DC. The food wasn’t very good, the drinks were the worst I’ve literally ever had, and they forgot my friends food even after being reminded multiple times. Ordered the hot matcha lattes: the matcha was still in chunks of powder when drinking and it was barely warm. Hot chocolate: it was 2 sips worth of actual drink and the rest was foam. The muffins were dry, but the other pastries were good. The courses we got were the curry chicken and flatbread which weren’t bad, but for the cost of the water to wash anything down with going anywhere else is more worth...
