" Found this charming café across the street from the Capitol, and I can't say enough good things! My husband had the panini while I devoured the seasonal scone. They make everything fresh and it shows. Overall, I felt like I had taken a trip to France. The small size was not an issue for us, as the delicious food totally made up for it. Can’t wait to come again! " (*Curated Review*)

" A small café with a big personality! I snagged a seat on the patio and enjoyed a delightful cappuccino. My friend tried the avocado toast and raved about the flavors. The vibe is very casual, perfect for meeting up with friends. But if you're looking for a fast meal, this might not be the place. Overall, a worthwhile visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" My wife and I had a lovely date at Le Bon Café. The ambiance was charming, and the service was attentive without being overly invasive. We enjoyed splitting a few pastries and coffee, which turned out to be more than enough for a light brunch. The outdoor area made it feel like a true getaway from the busy streets of DC. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting a cafe in DC, I was hoping for something special, but my experience at Le Bon Café didn’t quite hit the mark. The service wasn’t the quickest, and my drink didn’t taste quite fresh. I have to say, though, the outdoor seating offered a great vibe, which was about the best part. Luckily, I found a good pastry to enjoy with my coffee! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just had a mediocre experience at Le Bon Café. The seating is tight, and I felt rushed during my meal. My order took longer than expected, leaving me somewhat unsatisfied. The croissant I had was decent, but not as flavorful as I had hoped. I'll consider trying it again to see if my experience improves. Wouldn't recommend if you're in a hurry, though. " (*Curated Review*)

" Awful service and lackluster food. My salad had way too much dressing, and I had a long wait before I could even get anyone's attention. The staff seemed overwhelmed which reflected poorly on the atmosphere. I won't be coming back anytime soon. Very disappointed with my visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I waited a bit for my coffee, but let me tell you, it was worth it! The espresso here is bold and flavorful; absolutely spot-on. I was also impressed with the service as the staff seemed to genuinely care about the customers. The pastries, particularly the almond croissant, were a standout. Next time, I will grab one for the road. A lovely cafe to unwind! " (*Curated Review*)
