Nutella croissants, huevos rancheros, Berkshire sausage, mimosas and Bloody Marys are  just some of the options you can get at the bistro across the street from the Waterfront Metro Station. Station 4 specializes in brunch, but also has separate menus for lunch, dinner and dessert. 

Although small, Station 4 has a fancy ambience. The ceilings are covered with sparkling chandeliers, intricate mirrors cover the walls, and a huge wine rack is located right in the center of the bistro. Light music plays in the background, and conversations flow both inside and on the bistro’s outside patio. 

The wait staff was very friendly, and the service fairly quick. The friendly waitstaff help customers choose from the large menu, which had plenty of options for vegetarians and meat-eaters alike. The huevos rancheros—an omelet covered with a blend of spice, avocados, mozzarella, and beans— will not disappoint. Ranchero sauce and a blend of spices will win over even those who shy away from eggs.  

Bring your ID! For customers thirsty for mimosas and other brunch drinks, Station 4 offers a broad array. For the rest of us there are coffees and sodas.

The portions were fairly large, so if you want dessert, think about bringing some of your main meal home.  Dessert options included chocolate ganache, chocolate lava cake, hazelnut semifreddo, and strawberry tart. 

For an eating experience with an elegant environment and convenient location, good food and moderate pricing, consider brunching at Station 4. 

Station 4 is located at 1101 4th Street SW, Washington, DC.
