Washington Cafe — Restaurant in Washington

Everything was fantastic. A real gem that adds a lot to Washington, NC. It is the best place for baked goods , of course, but also excellent breakfast sandwiches and incredible array of coffee . The Washington Cafe is the only place where you can get specialty coffees that are now so popular, like lattes, cappuccino, etc. PLUS, I had the pleasure of being waited on by Gary. He was outstanding. Gary gave the best customer service I have ever had. He went out of his way to guarantee that everything was perfect, and it was ! The Washington Cafe is a wonderful place. You can sit and enjoy your baked goods and other delicious items in a warm, friendly, and cozy atmosphere . A perfect spot for starting the day or at anytime. It is an oasis. The Washington Cafe is a refuge, a respite from all the insanity, pressure, and stress that consumes us more and more every day. A business that gives the community a place of peace and relaxation coupled with great food and drink, topped off by a wonderful staff like Gary ! The Washington Cafe provides a place we all need, a safe harbor in today's turbulent times .

Thank you for giving me and many the opportunity to enjoy this...

A solid 4.5 stars rounded up! The coffee is truly delicious- and I feel like the bakery is getting its sea legs under it. I’ve been a few different times and today was genuinely the best thus far! They’re clearly working to manage and plan for the demand, and I LOVE the pastry box options (where you can order 7 or 14 pastries for a flat rate). It works well for me as I often buy several treats to bring home and share. The food is really improving and I’ve enjoyed the things I’ve bought. The owner could not be nicer or more engaging and the barista did the cutest job with some latte art- I’m excited to return and try...
