I normally go there for morning coffee or espresso. Which is very good! But today I choose to go for lunch big mistake! Their prices are crazy as hell. $10.99 for a Turkey sandwich maybe the going rate for the area, but 2.00 for 1 slice of cheese. Not to mention on the menu it says 1.00 and when I bring it to the cashiers attention she say oh the price for cheese went up today . I honestly wanted to have them refund my card asap! But I didn’t feel like going through the drama. Hopefully it will be worth the price!
I go here almost every day for lunch. They custom make any sandwich I’m in the mood for, and anything that touches their griddle in the back ends up being delicious. The staff are friendly, make great food, and are all around awesome.
Great place to grab my morning latte. Clean, friendly, and place to relax. The food looks good.
Had Reuben with sauerkraut and REAL Russian dressing at least twice now. Gooey cheese, piping hot bread. I don't know how in the world this place has so few positive reviews. In addition, they have a great selection of drinks. Multi flavors of Joe's drinks, Snapple, etc. No plain coke and Pepsi offerings here. Staff has been more than pleasant even when it's really crowded. I would give them five stars but the seating is strange. I don't like it when someone's butt touches me as they pass by when I'm sitting at a table. My only take away. I love this place.
Great place! The coffee was very good and the sandwiches were generous and fresh. The personnel too was very kind. Really recommend it!
Small little cafe that hits above its weight. Great options, lunch sandwiches are of great value and quality for DC. Ample breakfast options too. Bit tight inside for eating there bit has a nice patio. Go-to when I'm in the neighborhood and need breakfast or lunch!
$2.00 FOR A SLICE OF CHEESE???? I went to Cafe Philips because they are located in the building that I work in. I also had a coupon for 2.00 off for any sandwich. I go to Philips and order my sandwich. When I get to the cashier, I notice she charge me the regular price for my sandwich. I explained that I had a coupon for $2.00 off . Her response was "oh the cheese is $2.00 extra" I could not believe it who charges $2.00 for cheese. I should have thrown the sandwich at her., but I left it on the counter and walked out. Now I tell everyone and anyone DO NOT EAT AT CAFE PHILIPS
HORRIBLE! I've never been to a place with so many rules! No breakfast after 10:30...no fries until noon...Splenda is kept behind the register inside secret only regulars know...out of order sign on restroom ask if they have a restroom and they'll hand you the key if you've purchased something. They'll slide it to you as if you have a disease, but gladly open their palms to receive your cash. I'm OVER this ratchet place! 2 words: Don't go!
This is 'the bad Phillip's.' Between lacksadaisical service that doesn't know how to run a line and keep it moving, the $8 MINIMUM FOR CREDIT CARDS, and the sandwiches that are lazily constructed with smaller portions than other Phillip's, I try to avoid this location as much as possible. This place really tarnishes the Phillip's brand in DC. I walk to 'the good one.'
Good Food Fast Food drinks kinda pricey but honestly for DC a full meal here isn't too expensive!
