28 Best Pubs in Washington

“Great pub, great Guinness, great staff. Owner can be a bit of a prick.“

“This my first time here and it was probably one of the best experience I’ve ever had at a bar in DC . I’ll definitely be back for my birthday next week. Love the atmosphere“

“Fab place for food and drinks. Great staff and good value“

“My son and I were visiting DC and always looking for a good burger. The burgers were outstanding. One of the best I have ever had.“

“Can only speak to brunch. First the restaurant is easy to find, staff was very attentive and helpful with suggesting beers. The full English breakfast was a delicious choice! I only wish 1) it came with more bread 2) there was a choice to add on black pudding. Note I wasn’t asked how I wanted my eggs but they came out perfectly for me. Felt like a large portion for the price. Wish you could get the Anfield Ale outside of the pub. Wish they had more authentic music than top 40’s of today. Sticky toffee pudding was okay (I know the donuts are the better recommendation but my mom wanted the other)“

“I have chicken wings ring ring Chris Rock they would really really good I had a good time there“

“Fantastic experience at the Tune Inn. Had the opportunity of meeting the owner who was so kind. The staff is incredible, food is just as good! Didn’t wait too long for food or drinks. Mozzarella sticks are the best I’ve ever had. 10/10 experience!“

“Great place for mussels!“

“Amy recommended this through the DC by foot walking tour Facebook page… and it did not disappoint me! I had the BLTA… Bacon, lettuce, tomato, and avocado sandwich… And it was awesome. I may not be able to go to it again this trip… But I’ll plan to add this to one of my favorites.“

“Great bar with great vibes and even better employees. I truly cannot convey how grateful I am for the amazing employees at this bar! After fainting at the bottom of the stairs Friday night, the employees all immediately sprang into action, making sure that I was ok and asking questions while they called for paramedics. They even knew that I hadn’t been drinking, properly conveying that I was having a true medical issue. The first thing I remember is one of them telling me that I wasn’t alone and everything was going to be ok. Fainting episodes are always very disorienting and even painful for me, but everyone made me feel completely safe and comforted. They ensured no onlookers made me uncomfortable or laughed, really minimizing my immense embarrassment about the whole experience. They were so respectful, and one man in particular truly took care of me the entire time. Honestly, I’m sure they did even more than I was aware of, and I am so grateful for their assistance. This is an absolutely amazing bar that simply put my safety above all else. I have never been treated with such genuine care, thoughtfulness, and kindness during a fainting episode. My only regret is not getting any of their names to properly thank them for their help, so I really hope they see this! Your help meant the world to me, and I cannot wait to tell all of my friends to come to The Commodore!“

“Nadi is amazing. Been going to Queens for 20 years 🙂‍↕️🫶🏽“

“great time and the bartender was awesome!“

“The best place to see new music from everywhere on earth“

“Great pub for watching NFL, NCAA, Soccer any sport! Great staff bar tenders, for bar food not bad. The beer is cold! Watched several games here, always a good time, outside seating, and also has a TV.“

“A 501(c)(3) non-profit bar, where you can drink for a good cause! Good Belgian beers. NO TV! Cell phones discouraged. Real live, face-to-face, human-to-human communication instead of screen-to-screen or screaming at television B.S. Live music. Open mics and jams. Good conversations.“

“Once you go, you are family!“

“I had a really nice Monday night at Marx Cafe. The atmosphere was relaxed, friendly and welcoming, with a genuine neighborhood feel.
A special mention to our waitress, who was incredibly kind and attentive throughout the evening. She really made us feel comfortable and added a lot to the experience.
A lovely place in Mount Pleasant with a great atmosphere. I’d definitely come back!“

“Yummy yummy pie flight!!!“

“Food is delicious. Best crust in the DMV. Great salads. Service is reliably wonderful. My husband and I are regulars. My husband says the beer is good. My whine is about the wine, which in all categories is mediocre, expensive for what it is, and almost never changes, no matter how many nice requests we've made to the staff. PLEASE up your wine game!“

“This is an underground night club which can get packed since it’s a snug space. We were there with DJ Bizzy who killed it with house, R&B, today’s hits and even Latin beat. We elevated our experience by getting a table for 7 and it was WELL worth it to have the space to spread out, make drinks and dance with your group without being crushed in the crowd. Thank you to Robert for hooking us up with a seamless reservation, the staff for continuously filling our mixers and ice and our personal favorite THANK YOU AUGUSTINE for keeping the women’s bathroom safe and kicking the wandering “lost” men out the minute they entered! You are a real one for that! Over all it was a great experience for an Intimate club experience and it is what you make of it. Great club for beginners or medium groups with excellent music and service/security.“
