We love Sidamo for an iced morning chai on the weekends - a great spot to sit and do some work or read the newspaper.

Hip coffee shop just a few blocks from our house. The outdoor seating is great for some morning people watching (and the scones are amazing). They also serve cocktails in the evenings!

Our weekend haunt for bagels when the former New Yorker misses his breakfast carbs. Friendly service, mostly to-go. We like the #6 smoked salmon breakfast sandwich.

A food market with everything from Burmese noodles to empandas to homemade mochi candy. Beforewarned - it gets crazy at lunchtime! We love to grab a morning snack and coffee with our dog here on the weekends. Good for people watching and browsing the many food options.

Upscale, hip and fun food in an intimate setting. We like their brunch - you absolutely should split a doughnut for dessert. Also great for a cozy date-night dinner with drinks, but be prepared to wait for a table.

Vegan food you won't know is vegan. This carnivore loves their food! We especially like the buffalo cauliflower dip, veggie burger, and carrot cake pancakes, and their desserts are excellent.

Legendary ramen with an always-line. Good drinks too! You can always put your name in and wait next door at The Pug with a beer. Good for solo or very small group eats.

DC's historic grocery market. There's a fun flea market as well as a farmers market with prepared food stalls on the weekends, and always has a butcher/grocery/flower market inside the building. A fun stop if you want to explore a different neighborhood and get some snacks.
