Took a little injured squirrel over after calling and getting details over the phone. Place was easy to find, ample parking and the staff was awesome both on the phone and in person. It was just before the snow storm hit so I hope the squirrel makes it but I'm glad it's in good hands whatever happens.

Amazing space with very knowledgeable and kind staff. The plants are gorgeous and the different zones are very fun to walk through. You can even grab pellets at the front desk and feed the fish.

Lovely playground with tons of parking and super cool stations for the kids: musical stuff, climbing, so many different slides, swings of all types and even a cool Zipline that cab accommodate 3 kids at the same time

Most magical little library ever. I'm an adult and I love this place just as much as my kids. Insanely huge selection of books, lots of toys and bright, sun filled space to explore. The building itself is also absolutely adorable. Cannot wait to go back with my kids.

Definitely the best and the most popular coffee shop at the NIH Clinical Center. The staff is super friendly and very efficient. The drinks come out quickly and are tasty.
