Either they’re scamming people with the prices and pocketing the money, or doing something sketchy, but they say that prices have increased when you get your order completed but then it’s time to pay and it’s way more than you bargained for. The problem is they haven’t updated their signs IF THAT’S EVEN TRUE. If you are increasing your prices but advertising as low “community prices” then be about it, don’t talk about it. None of this false advertising nonsense, if you’re a typical business as anywhere else in D.C then don’t hide it, update your price signs to match what you manipulate us into paying after you’ve already prepared our food. Supposed to be all about inclusivity, diversity, and equity, my foot.

India is the #best

Employees are hateful they keep a pregnant woman from getting water and refusing to refill it

I have been eating here since the grand opening and the difference is night and day. Items that use to sell out daily are no longer offered. Items that have remained have drastically reduced in size and or quality. Items with an elevated price because of location and convenience are now astronomically priced. I know you are located Down Town, but for that same reason your food must remain competitively good and not just passive. I see some customers still come for convenience, but we are all waiting on the next best thing to pop up.

the prices here are so good that unless the food made me violently sick I would be hard pressed to find any fault. Luckily the food is tasty and the service is exceptionally friendly

Decent sandwiches and excellent prices for coffee. Nice vibe to sit and work!

This is my first time at the library, and I decided to grab coffee inside the facility at 9 AM. Wow, the lady working at the register seems to be having a bad day or just isn't a morning person. Unfortunately, her attitude was nothing but rude and unprofessional.

Prime example of why the library ROCKS! Fantastic food, people, mission, and prices. You guys are doing an awesome job here. ❤️

This place is great! I stumbled upon it on my way to a museum. I just needed a quick lunch. Where else can you get a toasted bagle with cream cheese for $1.50?? The staff were so friendly. This will be my new goto.

$1 coffee is the best thing I’ve ever seen! Yes, you can get an 8oz cup of coffee for only $1. That means you can get 40 ounces of coffee here for the same price as a 12oz cup from Starbucks! That alone deserves 5 stars. The food is also very well priced, and you can get breakfast for only $3 (or less). The spaces is also good for chilling or studying by yourself or in a group. If I lived close by, I would probably come here every day ??‍♀️
