Tryst Coffee House - Washington, D.C.

Worst cafe experience ever. Came in last night to get cup of decaf, and unless you are getting it to-go, you need to order from table. Unfriendly server waited 5 minutes to bring cream I requested, by which time coffee was room temp. I went to counter to report problem, and barista responded without apology by putting decaf in microwave rather than making a new cup! She had to do this 3X for it to reach a reasonably warm temp. Server never returned to table, so I had to find her to check out. She didn't apologize or say thank you.

Hi there!Tryst is one of my favorites coffee shops in DC. I love to go and order a delivery to my work place. Today I ordered one salmon bagel and one mint mojito. DoorDasher delivered the bagel only. Ticket of the order indicates there’s the bagel only, but I have in my e-mail a confirmation with two items payment included). I called immediately and nobody answers, I can’t even record a message. This is the third time that something is missing in my order, but first time that I don’t receive an explanation of why I didn’t get my drink :

Grateful to have a place to sit with wifi for work. but not a huge fan of ordering with wait staff for just coffee. also asked for a lightly sweetened latte and it tasted like they put extra sweetener. oh

They used to serve the best chai frappé, but they changed the recipe and raised the price. It's now white (a white Chai already says a lot), tasteless, chunky ice clogged the straw as usual, making it impossible to drink before it's melted. Want to talk about price: $8.25 (to go, and I had to remove the 20% service charge). I'm not surprised it is no longer crowded, even on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. I had the same experience the last 3-5 times, so I'm finally giving up on that place. Watch out if you have allergies.

THEY HAVE GLUTEN FREE WAFFLES PASTRIES!!! I repeat, GLUTEN.FREE.WAFFLES that’s don’t taste like cardboard!!This is the perfect place to bring yourself if you wanna get some work or reading done, all day breakfast and a wonderful coffee/ cocktail menu .Service was a bit slow, but that’s the vibe of the place so it wasn’t a aspect to complain about :
