"The former Navy Yard café was once next to its sister restaurant, Albi, but has since found new life in both Georgetown and Union Market. We’re partial to the Georgetown location for its shopping proximity, and the plush couches provide the perfect spot to people-watch or read the paperback you just picked up at Politics and Prose. Both cafés have solid breakfast options that tend to sell out quickly, so the sooner you can scoot on in, the better. Our latest obsessions are the cardamom chocolate cruffin—that’s a combo we didn’t know we needed—and the super-stuffed BBQ cauliflower pita that’s so huge, you could probably save half of it for a snack later." - Omnia Saed
