50 Best Cocktail Bars near Oxon Hill

“Amazing place and food. Only issue is it was extremely cold in the restaurant. Eventually, I realized they had the door open to the hallway which isn't heated. I politely asked them to close the door which dramatically changed the temperature in the restaurant. And heads up it is pricey. But worth it.“

“Elegant setting. Beautiful decor. Stellar service. Innovative and delectable cuisine. Bonus points for mocktail options.“

“5 stars isn't enough!! From the moment we walked in until the end of our night we were satisfied. The decorations, food, and service was amazing! They even offered me a quiet place to pray :). Give this place a try-trust me (portions may seem small, but it was very filling- we ordered the bowl of fries, which came with a delicious sauce, CROQUETTES, fish burger, beef burger, and gnocchi pomodoro. It felt like we were in nyc enjoy :)“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Best in town for food and drinks.“

“From the cocktails to the service…our experience was top notch all around! Highly recommend!“

“Had a happy hour reservation. The team at flight club was extremely accommodating and service was awesome. Asia was our server and she didn’t let a single person go more than 10 seconds without a drink in their hand.

Food options were great and there was something for everyone.

We asked management if we could combine our reservation with another big group, and they made the introduction and made it happen for us.

Great experience and highly recommend if not for the games at least to meet Asia!“

“Nice atmosphere. Good drinks“

“I enjoyed the green zone, it had me flying high. Flying high when I tried their coffee drink. There was so much in it I don’t even know what to call it, but look at the picture, it looks delicious. I payed a pretty penny for it too, but pennies I got. This place cost a lot of green so bring your wallet, credit card too. Have fun, it’s good (at least their coffee drink is).“

“I've been to almost every cocktail bar in DC and OKPB's drinks are the best. Just as importantly, service is consistently welcoming/accommodating and unpretentious (a real rarity for cocktail bars). The wait time is inconvenient but it's just because OKPB is amazing and everyone wants to go (plus space is small). Plan on a significant wait (45 min - 1.5 hrs) during prime hours. During your wait, head over to the raven, Marx, la tejana, or suns.“

“My husband friend and I needed an early dinner near Adams Morgan so i did a quick search and found Ceibo. It was fantastic! The mushroom appetizer and the eggplant appetizer were both amazing. We all ordered the black cod entree. It was stupendous. Ill definitely return.“

“We came here after the nationals game and Dylan was our server and it was his best experience ever. My husband had the liver and onions and I had the cob salad and it was delicious. My sister-in-law had the avocado salad. I would come here at 10 out of 10 a time every single time and don’t forget to ask for Dylan as your waiter. It was amazing. And order the Mojito!“

“Omg best place in dc will come again“

“We went on a Sunday night so my fiancé could do her groomsmen proposal. The staff was extremely accommodating and wanted to make the moment special. A few of our guest ordered food which they said were good & the mixed drinks were good as well. The manager & host went above and beyond. Would definitely recommend & we will be back.“

“Went to Kitchen +Kocktails for the first time last night. The decor was very nice, and the music was good and not obnoxious. Our server Ally was terrific! I’m not a drinker, so when I asked her if there were any cocktails that didn’t taste like alcohol, I thought she would look at me like I was crazy, but she didn’t! She seemed to know exactly what I was talking about and immediately had a couple of suggestions. I went with the mixed berry lemon drop and it was perfect for me. The crab cake appetizers and shrimp and grits with lobster tail entree were amazing. We had a great time and we’ll be back!“

“We had a fantastic time here. It’s a Vietnamese fusion restaurant, and every dish we ordered was excellent. The cornbread, snapper, prawn, rice cake, and curry all stood out — rich, layered flavors with great textures. Each dish feels thoughtfully designed, well balanced, and even a little surprising in a good way.

We ordered three desserts and they were all amazing and very unique. Definitely try the seaweed and durian desserts — you won’t regret it.

They also offer some very creative cocktails, though to be honest, we didn’t really enjoy the ones we ordered.“

“Great place for drinks and food, a good girls night or wine night or relaxing evening for 30s and up! Great ambience and darker lighting sets a good mood and atmosphere. Love it here and continue to bring friends to enjoy the gem close to DuPont!“

“BRING BACK THE CEVICHE DE PULPO PLEASE!!!!“

“Finding a Filipino restaurant isn’t easy. So learning about Purple Patch thru Jo Koy—has ended this search! Literally, Filipino cuisine heaven! The restaurant is uniquely decorated, the staff were friendly, & the food hit that major comfort button for us! Thank you Zahara for being so sweet & a wonderful waitress. We can’t wait to come back for more!“

“Best sandwich ever me and my husband really enjoyed ourselves❤️💪💯👏“

“Great food great service!“

“Part of a food court so can't say there's atmosphere, really. Things are made fresh, which is great, but it means you need to wait a bit. I like that they use the traditional bamboo steamers and serve them to you that way. Large portions in one order. We enjoyed everything we ordered. Vegan options.“

“What a lovely bar! Delicious and unique drinks!“

The chocolate dessert is my go to“

“Can't recommend this place enough!! The entrance is actually very hidden which adds to the speakeasy element. The bartenders are excellent, especially Jake who was controlling the music and making our fab Tom Collins. Highly recommend!!!“

Their cocktails aren’t just drinks—they’re a whole conversation, crafted with creativity and precision that makes each sip memorable. The bites are iconic, offering a perfect mix of flavor and presentation that keeps you coming back for more. And the vibe?

“wonderful gem of a spot! delicious cocktails and food. extremely knowledgeable staff“

“Great visit for a first timer! Beautiful restaurant, fantastic food and amazing service!“

“I can’t wait to go back and next time I’m getting one of everything! These were the best cocktails I’ve ever had in my life, every flavor worked together and kept surprising me in the best ways. The bartenders are genius and the servers are welcoming and attentive. The seating and atmosphere are nice for friends catching up or for couples looking to snuggle up in a cozy nook made for two. I could’ve spent all night looking at the murals and the menu has so much more than descriptions of cocktails and (also amazing) food. 10/10 would recommend!“

“I love this place! The food is phenomenal! I can’t get over the tempeh burger!!!“

“I love the Benders today SHOUT OUT to RECESS CATERING EVENTS. CHEIF WALTON some Good tasting food by the way Chief your the Best.“

“Amazing dinner!! Every course was delicious!“

“I had the Persian bowl ( or something
Like it) and the mushroom soup. Sorry I can’t provide pics cause I wanted to enjoy the full experience. Both plates excelled in presentation and flavors. They blew my mind; specially the mushroom soup. It was amazing! I also like that the Persian bowl was a feature by an Iranian chef recently arrived to the country. The ambience and service were outstanding as well. And I loved that I could, for once, speak Spanish without feeling intimidated.“

“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“

“Bistro Cacao was an outstanding choice to cater lunch for a very important business meeting. The food was AMAZING, from appetizers, salad, main course and dessert! Highly recommend them for your next event, meeting or just a fine place to dine!! Great Service, Great Food, Great Presentation!“

“What a fantastic Michelin star experience! We got the 4-course menu. And I'm glad we did, it was our anniversary (late celebration) but the cocktails we got were top notch! Couldn't try all of them on the menu, but I wish we could. Before our courses started we got a petite version of sabudana bad, which was delicious! After that all the good we got was just delicious! I would 100% recommend this place for a special occasion or just for a good date night!“

“spacious inside. some seating outside as well.. good place to eat, drink, and view art.“

“on point!! don't shy away from the menu, everything we had was delicious.“

“A whole vibe!! This was my 1st time at Flirt DC and I must say I was impressed! Brunch was amazing, service top tier and the owner was making sure everyone is good 👍🏾 one of the better spots in DC for hookah and drinks HANDS DOWN! #letsFlirt💋“

“had my daughter’s baby shower there today from 1-4. Ali was superb… “on it” re: everything! Food was great & abundant… juice/champagne bar fabulous & just the perfect size & setup for 30 women. i highly recommend ms. peacock’s! and once again, “Ali” was the best.“

“A cute place in a cozy spot filled with joy and anticipation. The menu changes often so, if you look online and salivate at one of the photos, there is a good chance what you desire has morphed into something else. But fear not, the chef has surely created something new you willingly dive into.

I had the beef short ribs Chinese style. As my mother would say, when she is commenting on a dish, it was nice. That is a higher praise than most, but I feel it was appropriate for this dish. It wasn’t what I was expecting for a place with such high accolades. More like Korean Kalbi with Szechuan spice. Just a suggestion, maybe work on the presentation and add some coconut sugar to the marinade to balance out the flavor of the dish. It was served with an apple slaw that was also, nice, as it was the tangy acidic element to the dish. As the meat was spicy and the slaw tangy I was left yearning for that great balance of flavor great asian food has—spicy, sweet, tangy all in one bite.

I also had the lotus dumpling and that was delightful— maybe the same critique, just missing one thing, but I can’t put my finger on it yet.

The food was good and would definitely go back if I could find a nice date (almost impossible nowadays unless you pay upfront). Service was excellent and the ambiance made you feel warm and welcome. You should try this spot and order a lot more than I did to get a true experience of what this place has to offer.“

“Had a great experience. I would definitely come back next time we are in DC.“

“Cozy restaurant with big personality. Our server was happy to be there and answer any questions asked. We got the steamed dumplings and crab Rangoon. By far the best crab Rangoon we’ve enjoyed to date. Will be back to try the drunken noodles!“

“Best pasta ever, anywhere!“
