Ted's Bulletin

"Ted’s Bulletin opened nearly 15 years ago, and the original diner—with its iconic yellow, tufted-leather bar and booths—in Capitol Hill is the neighborhood’s go-to spot for an unfussy breakfast that tastes like a home-cooked meal. The operation has grown to eight locations across the DMV, though the Capitol Hill outpost remains our favorite for its super-friendly staff and quaint original charm. Breakfast is served all day, and if you’re anything like us, you’ll keep coming back for the huevos rancheros, biscuits and sausage gravy, and thick-cut french toast. Definitely leave room for the house dessert: Ted’s Tarts, available in strawberry, brown sugar and cinnamon, s’mores, and blueberry cheesecake." - omnia saed, mekita rivas, tess shiras

"Giant pastry pockets and oversized cinnamon rolls make breakfast a blast at the D.C. chain of nostalgic diners. All-day pancakes from the kids’ menu come in a “Mr. Breakfast” shape, with bacon for the mouth and bananas and berries for the eyes and nose. The kids’ menu breaks from the basic tenders-and-fries rut, with options like teriyaki salmon and an assortment of nutritious sides. Order here for pickup or delivery at six area locations, with more on the way." - Tierney Plumb, Emily Venezky

"There’s no safer bet than Ted’s Bulletin for you and your least favorite friend, and that’s because they’ve got service here down to a T at this fast-casual diner. You can get in and out in under 30 minutes if you wanted to at this Capitol Hill spot, which we’re not saying is an acceptable time frame, but it’s comforting to know you can. Besides, the menu here is pretty expansive and includes all-day breakfast options like blueberry pancakes and chicken biscuits. The food is not great, but entrees will only set you back around $15. Besides, milkshakes and pancakes make everything better." - Omnia Saed

"Washingtonians love Ted’s for it's all-day breakfast, boozy milkshakes, and version of Pop-Tarts. While the breakfast options are numerous, “Jon’s Omelet” keeps it classic with mushrooms, spinach, and Swiss cheese. It's served with hash browns and the diner’s choice of meat." - Adele Chapin, China Riddle
