Kid-friendliness: My husband and I went to celebrate our wedding anniversary. I saw a family with kids there (under the age of 12). I personally would not recommend bringing kids and I wouldn't bring my own until they were late teenagers. The atmosphere and food options are not really kid friendly“

“I got the royal palm, nitro cold brew and a cookie. The sandwich was pretty good, and there was a reasonable amount of salmon on it. The sides/drinks were good. My bagel honestly wasn't great which was surprising coming from a place that sells a lot of bagels. While I would probably go back and/or try some of the other sandwiches, I'm not sure what would bring me here over some of the other bagel places around Bethesda.

Parking: Difficult to find a spot, especially during prime time.“

“Clearly the best ice cream in downtown Bethesda. Family-run, Argentinian, they have a deep sense of generosity and local love. There is a lot of work and research behind the scene. Most of their ingredients are sourced in a 100-mile radius. Pistachio flavour is to die for, same for mango. Menu is in constant evolution. Push the door. I dare you not to go back!“

“I ended up getting a coffee, panini, and a donut after 31 tubes of bloodwork. You’ll find this gem right around the corner of Phlebotomy, floor 1. Espresso machines, limited but well-selected types of pastries, microwave, seating area — what else can you ask for

Order (~$16)
(iced) Hazel “Oat” Toffee Crunch Latte: top tier, made with a true espresso machine, theres little pieces of the crunch mixed in it. so. good. 100/10
(I’m a coffee person)

Devil Chocolate Cake donut: glazed outer layer, spongy cake-like middle layer, and brownie inner layer. I promise you wont regret this one. 9.5/10
(try it warmed up)

Cold Cut Panini (Italian): If you’re not in the mood for it, it’ll taste pretty ordinary, but nothing bad about that either. I enjoyed it, solid bite, 7/10“

“I Absolutely loved Le Pain Quotidien on Old Georgetown! The location is fantastic, making it a perfect spot to enjoy a leisurely meal. It’s a perfect spot to meet friends or bring the family for a quick nice bite.
Their lattes and cappuccinos are simply amazing—so smooth and flavorful, truly reminiscent of European cafés. I also can't get enough of their avocado toast; it's hands down my favorite! The omelettes are delicious, and they offer a fantastic selection of pastries that satisfy any sweet tooth.
Overall, I highly recommend Le Pain Quotidien for anyone looking for a cozy, welcoming atmosphere with outstanding food and drinks. It’s definitely a go-to spot for brunch or a casual gathering with friends.“
