Junction Bistro Bar and Bakery

I had the pulled pork loaded nachos. They were terrible. Hardly any cheese & what cheese there is, was hard like cooked too long. Mixed drink was good

This cafe was a cute spot with some decent food. Ordering at the bar and finding seating was a bit difficult. The food was well overpriced but seemed fine due to it being in DC. I enjoyed eating here but would not rush to go back.

Junction has become an absolute staple of the neighborhood. The food is always good, the drinks are continually solid, and you can’t beat the location. It’s one of the last great happy hour spots in the area. Whenever we’re walking around and we feel like stopping somewhere, our default is the junction. Highly recommend trying their entire daily/weekly special menu.

Came to Junction Bistro & Bar since I was in the neighborhood in search of a coffee shop/bakery of the sort with food because I was really hungry. The menu was pretty extensive for such a place, which was a relief. They did not have pour coffee when I arrived, but I was able to get some mocha. It was tasty but needed extra sugar. I ordered the Turkey BLT + chips & it was pretty decent. I think the bacon was the true star of the sandwich. It was thick cuts of bacon. I also ordered the Friday special, which was $7 spiked cider or mulled wine. I ordered the spiked cider. I was pleasantly surprised at how yummy it was. I ordered it hot, and I am sure that made a huge difference. The atmosphere itself can be cozy & average noise, but will quickly turn into a bar atmosphere after 5pm. As a Fall/Autumn lover, I really loved the cute table decor. Overall, I do like the place. Solid daily specials, decent food and drinks and nice staff. If I return again, I would like to order pour coffee, a pastry, and the highly recommended hot chicken sandwich.

There isn’t table service - you order and pay at the cashier and then you get a number stand and they bring the food out to you. I wish they had the toast tab QR code system so that you don’t have to disrupt your conversation to go to the cashier and order another drink, etc. I got the Thai street bowl and thought it was pretty good though I would’ve appreciated more noodles and a bit less meat. My friend got the falafel and was extremely disappointed. My other friend got the pork bowl and said it was delicious. I loved the look of the restaurant, especially the tables and tiles. It had a good vibe on a Wednesday evening.
