Pavilion Café

Great experience! Excellent food! Lots of different choices! Desserts are so good! Friendly staff! The place was packed and we got our food in no time at all! Their chili was so good and the grilled cheese with fig and arugula was incredibly delicious!! 10 outta 10!!

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.

I got a mozzarella chicken sandwich and it was one of the best sandwiches I’ve had in months! It was condensed, warm, and delicious, and kept me impressively fueled for 6-7 hours of walking and museum going! The price was also good, at around $10-$15 for the sandwich, which was well worth it. They also had a lot of drink options and dessert options. They looked really good, but I didn’t get a chance to try them.

We enjoyed this little hidden oasis nestled between our nation's institutional buildings and museums. It was a welcomed resting spot to enjoy some good food and escape the heat. We had walked several miles around the Mall and my octogenarian mother really needed a break. Lots of light and open feel. I bought a turkey sandwich which was fresh and tasty, and even bought one to go for a friend. Recommended!!!

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!

Seems like the only spot to grab food around here. They have a small variety of salads and croissants. And a great coffee selection. We enjoyed the view of the ice-skating rink from there. They also have public restrooms and a water fountain to refill your water bottle.

A small cafe in a beautiful park. Enclosed by glass walls ensuring a good view from any seat in the house, this cafe offers indoor and outdoor seating in an incredible setting - the National Gallery of Art Sculpture Garden. For the most part, light eats and handhelds with a variety of hot and cold beverages - adult beverages available. One orders up front or online and takes it to your seat when called. Can be very busy in the summer!

We ordered two flat bread pizzas a tuna wrap and roast beef sandwich. The regular cheese pizza was not too good. The california pizza was good. The roast beef sandwich and tuna wrap was ok. Hiwever, we had pla piece of wood chip come out of the wrap. We asked for a new one and the counter lady thought that it was part of the tuna! We did get a replacement but it was not a pleasant experience. The garden outside is really nice and the cafe interior is pretty nice too.
