Great dive bar atmosphere but terrible service. I ordered a beer and was served the wrong one (IPA vs. light beer). I told a different bartender about the mixup and she gave me the right beer that tasted very different. Original bartender came over and told me that she gave me the right beer and I said it was definitely the wrong beer but it’s been fixed so we’re all good and I asked her why she would come over and tell me that anyways and she just rolled her eyes.What do I have to gain by lying about a beer mixup? Just a miserable person for coming over and trying to be right? Also really disappointing that 20% gratuity is included; she certainly seemed to work as if she knew there was a guaranteed gratuity unfortunately.

Cool place I love a dive bar. Bartender was a gem. No PeanutsJuke was broken (boo hoo). My first beer choice was out. Who owns this place I would a bought a t shirt if they had

Great little bar. Went on a Sunday and bar was pretty empty. The staff was great. Drinks were reasonably priced. Good was good. Go with the nachos.

I really liked how they have a large outdoor seating area - one that's right off the bar and another covered area across the way. I love dive bars - usually laid back, cheap drinks, etc. This looks divey (college divey) but the beer prices were regular/ higher than even the breweries in the area. I would not recommend the food - microwaved chips with fake cheese.

My colleague lives in the area and invited me for a drink and I had never heard of the spot. It was chill around happy hour, kinda empty. Classic dive bar. The beer was cold. By the second drink the place started to fill and it seemed like the male/female ratio was very lopsided to the female persuasion and at first I was like “cool”, and then I reeeally took it all in and started to wonder if I was at a gay bar (which is still totally cool). Maybe it was the vendor selling “Dyke” merchandise, or the fact that for once I was able to enjoy a drink without being bothered by strangers or crowded by yuppies. Either way the atmosphere was conducive to minding my own business and having a good time. The outdoor area is great.The upstairs had vendors with various art and wares they made. I have since learned that the event was actually “Dew Drop’s Dyke Party”. I would gladly come to another Tuesday “Dyke Party” if it’s always so chill (albeit not very diverse).The downstairs also had a bar and around 8 there was Christmas-themed live music of the R&B/Soul/Jazz persuasion. This crowd was substantially more eclectic and in my subjective views couldn’t be categorized as homogenous. Free live music in DC is unheard of so I was extremely gracious.My only complaint is that this is a dive in the heart of the dmv that doesn’t serve National Bohemian. But I have since learned that they allow dogs so I won’t hold it against them.

Love this place. Haven't been here in a while but came for the holiday market event and will definitely be back more often. Had a great time every time, but especially this last visit. Shout out to Dom for not only selling some sick art but organizing the event as well.
Amazing, cozy little place on the Metropolitan Bike Trail where 90% of the seating is outdoors. Fair prices and food supplied by a food truck. Definitely a great place to visit during 3 seasons of the year.

Very nice outdoor patio. Good for casual meet and greets or first dates since it has a good mix of music areas and conversation spots. Slushy drinks are overly sweet, but still tasty if you're ready for it.
