At L'Enfant café-bar, you'll feel more like you are on holiday in Paris, than in Washington DC. This casual and pleasant cafe-bar, with a lovely interior and a beautiful sidewalk garden patio is one of the city’s happiest places to visit.
Our recently-expanded menu features a large selection of delicious starters, new Main Plates (like Beef Bourguignon, Roast Chicken and a sinful 3-Cheese, White Truffle Macaroni and Cheese), delicious savory crepes, the best and biggest French Dip sandwich in town, a cheesy French Onion Soup and our signature Croque Monsieur that will whisk you to the Left Bank with every mouth-watering bite. And no visit would be complete without a sampling of our menu of sweet crepes, where Nutella is king.
Our candle-lit bar is cozy and friendly with a large selection of Belgium beers(Stella Artois, Chimay, Delirium Tremens, de Koninck, to name just a few), fine French wines and champagnes, top shelf liquors and DC's most delicious cappuccinos, lattes and mochas served in our oversized coffee bowls.
UPCOMING EVENTS:
TUESDAY, JULY 14th...BASTILLE DAY!!!
Come celebrate your independence at DC’s most revolutionary party at the L’Enfant Café Bastille Day Bash and French Maid Relay Race!
This fantastic party is highlighted by a race featuring 30 customers (maybe you) dressed in French Maid costumes competing in one of the funniest races you have ever witnessed. It has all of the excitement of the Grand Prix with none of the elegance.
Join your hosts, King Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette for some free cake, music, food & drink specials, and door prizes. This party serves up so much cheesy fun that you will find Jerry Lewis funny again…well maybe.
Tuesday, July 14th.
Starts at 5:00pm.
French Maid Relay Race begins around 8:00pm.
