Although we’re in the middle of “Galentine’s” season, do you really need a reason to gather with your friends, sisters, mom, or other important women in your life? What matters is getting together for coffee, cocktails, brunch or lunch, and maybe even working in a little retail therapy.
Swallows Nest in Washington is the perfect place to do all or any of the aforementioned activities any time of the year or day of the week. Part cafe, part boutique, this adorable spot is in a dreamy two-story historic brick building that features lots of architectural details like exposed brick, hardwood floors, and gorgeous wood trim, plus cute, vintage furnishings in the cafe’s dining area. The result is a cozy, welcoming cafe area that invites guests to linger.
On the menu is a number of breakfast choices like avocado toast, waffles, and a biscuit and gravy offering, as well as lunch choices like salads and sandwiches. There’s also a rotating selection of freshly made pastries and other delicious desserts. In terms of drinks, the coffee menu ranges from lattes, served hot or iced, drip coffee, and cold brew, as well as a number of teas, soft drinks, wine, and cocktails.
After eating, you’ll want to linger awhile to browse the boutique which features lots of cute, often boho-inspired clothes, jewelry, and other accessories, as well as home decor, and a section called The Refillery where you’ll find products such as laundry soap, bath and body care products that can be purchased using reusable containers that customers can bring in and refill when they need to be replenished rather than continuing to purchase those items in single-use plastic containers.
