Why eat at the dirty food trucks when you can have good food at the Pavilion Cafe? It serves sandwiches and salads, is clean and air conditioned, prices are reasonable, lots of tables and chairs inside and outside. The employees are well trained, polite, and keep the place very clean. The best place to eat on the National Mall by far.

This place was crowded but still calm on a sunny Sunday. Lots of sandwiches, quiches and small pizzas. Relatively affordable compared to other museum cafés.
You can eat inside or outside, both with views of fountains or the sculpture garden.

We showed up at 3:50 PM knowing that the sign said they closed at 4:00 PM. We were met by a security guard who told us they were closed. When we pointed out that the sign said 4 PM, we were told that was so they could get everyone out by 4 PM.
I have worked for various restaurants over my 55 years on this earth. If the sign says 4 PM, people should get served at 3:59 PM. We would have gladly ordered to go and sat outside to eat.
This is bad business! I would have valued the food higher, but we never got to eat any.

Was an excellent oasis of A/C on a very hot summer day. And the food was good.
We needed a place to retreat from the very hot summer sun and grab some food. The only gripe I had was they were out of the cobb salad. So I & the kids had the Montreal Beef. Sandwiches were good sized but came with just plain Lays chips. My wife had the Couscous salad.
The staff moved quickly through people so while there was a line to the door, we didn't wait long.

Sandwiches was great. Taste was perfect, ingredients were fresh. Each sandwich comes with a chips.
Service was excellent and fast. Atmosphere was very clean, full of light and relaxing.
We loved the sandwiches and we got one more for our dinner.

It's a very nice little cafe practically hidden among modern sculptures. Seating is somewhat limited inside, but terrace seating is a great choice on a nice weather day.
I enjoyed my Southwest BBQ Chicken Flatbread very much. It was very tasty. I even received a favorable comment from a passerby as I sought my seat under an umbrella outside. My wife had a vegetable and cheese quiche. It was also a very tasty dish, and it came with a fruit cup as a side. We concluded that this Cafe provides decent food. Prices are not too bad considering this location in the National Mall (you'll spend more money at food trucks, and food is much better here).
When you might need some respite from all your visits to various museums, this place fits your bill. Highly recommended!
Vegetarian options: Vegetarian meals are clearly marked on the menu.

Salad didn't have the olives they advertised on menu, but that was one of the reasons I ordered it. Didn't have time to reconcile this with as mine is too busy. Try eating somewhere else.

Cafe where you can buy food or drinks while relaxing in Sculptur garden. Eat it later. You can wait for a coffee in the garden if you like but the service is very slow.
