We had a fabulous Valentine’s Day brunch at Primrose! The interior couldn’t be more cute and inviting - they’ve done such a good job curating the space! And the enclosed patio is adorable - it’s giving greenhouse vibes. The bread basket drop biscuits come piping hot with the most delicious salted butter and yummy jelly. We got the veggie quiche and the croque monsieur for our entrees. The quiche was amazing - such a delicious delicate egg custard and yummy pastry!! The croque monsieur was decadent and so worth it. We shared the Dutch baby pancake for our “breakfast dessert” and it was great! The staff was excellent, the music and decor was a hit, and the food is a 10!

Great ambiance for a dinner date and brunch gathering. I recommend this place to all friends and family members. Food selection is elevated and the menu changes based on the season.

Had dinner for 12. Great table and server. Food came out all at the same time and was hot and delicious. I love the smash burger and won't have a burger anywhere else! Love the cocktails and the vibe. One person had several dietary restrictions that they kindly accommodated.

Beautiful corner bistro & wine bar nestled in the heart of the Brookland residential district. With a robust sunroom annex jutting out into the side street, Primrose garners ample sunlight to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere. I loved the detail of the elegant crown molding, ostrich feathered chandeliers, and stunning turquois bar. Gorgeous decor.

We stopped by for lunch and thoroughly enjoyed their house-made Bloody Mary (cornichon Brined Bloody; Lemon pepper vodka, cornichon brine, tomato juice), smash burger (gruyère, charred onion, Dijonnaise, frites) and salmon Benedict.

Service was friendly and attentive, no false notes during the entire experience.

Highly recommended.

We eat here frequently (it's only a few blocks from our place) and the food is excellent. The staff is always friendly, even when it's busy.

Primrose is really firing on all cylinders these days.

Me, my wife and son visited Primrose recently since we live in the neighbor. I haven’t been here in years and I was excited to go. The service was on point. Our waiter was attentive and mindful of the fact that brunch was ending soon from the time we arrived. I order the crispy potatoes and the bacon, egg and cheese sandwiches while my wife ordered the chicken and waffles. I enjoyed my sandwich and half salad. The bacon was thick cut which I was a fan of. As for the chicken and waffles it was sub-par. The chicken was overcooked as well as the waffle. My ideal type of waffle is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. This waffle was dense. The potato were fantastic. Look forward to trying more of their menu.

Went for dinner on a Saturday night. Made reservations and knew we’d be late and called it in and they were very accommodating. The atmosphere was fantastic - cute & cozy. The food was filling - I had the burger, which I normally never order, but the cheese-onion-pickle pairings were super tasty! The orange vino verde was amazing and we had their last bottle. But Sebastian provided a next best wine option with what we wanted. Would recommend and would definitely go back!

Primrose is a cozy and tastefully decorated space with caring staff. The food was great as well as the wine selection. Perfect for a girls night! The waiter was knowledgeable about the menu and we had great recommendations for wine! Can’t wait to return. Sebastian and Josh were gracious and made us feel extremely welcomed and they were kind, friendly and knowledgeable and great with recommendations!

Phenomenal all around. The staff were so friendly and helpful! One of our party has allergies and the staff were really helpful in determining which items she could have. The food was delicious! I had the gnocchi and I think it's the best I've ever had before-I ate it all before I remembered to take a picture. A couple pics of the delish small plates we had

Had a wonderful night with friends. The space felt cozy and comfortable, the food was delicious, the staff super friendly and the wine recs were great! I’ll be back.

Primrose is truly a neighborhood gem in Brookland. The vegetarian options are outstanding—they really know how to make veggies shine. The kids menu is thoughtful and makes dining out as a family so easy. And the wine list? Impeccable. We’ve never had a bad pick. It continues to be our go-to spot, and we feel lucky to have such a special place right in the neighborhood.

A cool setting but it doesn’t deliver on substance. Patio is great but mosquito filled, the wine list is hip at the expense of being good and the food was ok.
