49 Best Beer Bars near Silver Spring

“Food is great but I feel shorted on the oxtail portions, it’s precisely why I won’t leave a tip when I pick up carry out. I go based off the last order…if I feel shorted on the portions from the last order then I won’t leave a tip on my next order.“

“I really love this place. Since recently moving from Korea to the U.S., I find myself coming here whenever I crave Korean fried chicken. This is the only place that truly captures the taste of the chicken I used to enjoy back home. I once tried the BBQ branch in Greenbelt, but I was really disappointed—it didn’t taste anything like what I remember.

Whenever I feel homesick, I come here for chicken. The breading is perfectly crispy without being too thick, and the meat is juicy and fried to perfection. It's the kind of flavor that lights up a bulb in my head and brings me right back to Korea.“

“@potomacsocialtavern
So I'm working in DC this weekend and every i come i stay at the Crown Plaza in Arlington. The hotel is amazing but, the restaurant, Potomac Tavern is just amazing! The service, the food and best of all, the people. I asked my bartender to make me something special. I think I just had the BEST Old fashion ever! He used there own brand of whiskey, Potomac whiskey. So smooth and the flavors just popped! SO GOOD!
Of you are in the area stop by and try one.you will not regret it.
Thanks Kassa, you rock!“

“We've been buying these dumplings from Costco for the past year and love them. We were so excited to find a storefront. The food was so good! We ordered the pork bao bun and the pork and chive dumplings. Prices were reasonable and the portions are perfect for sampling.“

“We came from out of state (NC) and just happened to Google bars around and this popped up. Hands down the best time we had. Luke, the bartender, was funny and amazing. We ended up going back the next day just to see him before we left town. Definitely will be back!“

“First time in Arlington, all the way from Annapolis and it was such and amazing vibe, our waitress kelsy was 5 stars took very seriously my GF allergy and was making sure with the kitchen, very knowledgeable of the Menu and she was very Nice. Will definitely go back for Food and hospitality.“

“Bottomless Brunch $33. All of their food is very very fresh tasting and delicious.“

“Awesome spot!! Food was very good! We got the brussel sprouts, Mac & Cheese with bacon, tots, Reuben and the Jalapeño burger. I wish the Mac & Cheese had that cheesy gooey ness to it but that’s a personal preference. It was still super good and we ate the whole thing.
The beer list was extensive! I stuck to their Sour selection and dang they were all so good! My friend had a few different drinks but the one that stuck out was the Peach Cider. It tasted like you legit just bit into a Peach!
The whole staff were welcoming and friendly. The bartender, Joe, (I hope I remembered his name correctly) was great!“

“super friendly and accommodating. we really enjoyed our visit and the food.“

“Thanks again for a wonderful dinner shared with my family. Though it’s been many, many years, it’s still the same, with a few changes, its a great place. I know I can always count on you all every single time and I’m proud to know you’ve been my neighbor all these years as well. Whenever you’re around, it always feels more like home. And I love that for all these years you’ve had the Lost Dog and Cat Rescue. So many friends have been given a forever home, including a very special friend of mine. Thanks for all you continue to do. I hope you never leave us.“

“I happened to be at The Renegade two weeks ago. I love country music so I thought it could be a great idea to show my brother this restaurant. We came from Spain and discovered this place! What we didn’t know is that we would meet Paul, who took care of us and “tour us around” their menu and options. The food was delicious and healthy as well! Artichokes, hummus, cauliflower and the chicken were amazing! My brother is vegetarian so they prepared a pad thai for him and he really enjoyed it. After dinner, was time to look everybody dancing on the floor… With the perfect atmosphere! I wish I could post some pictures!! Thank you very much Paul, for treating us so well, you very much surprised us! Will come back 🤩🤩🤩🤩“

“Love trivia night it’s excellent“

“LOVE THIS PLACE! Very chill place to setup and work on your laptop. The coffee drinks and foods are fantastic, they have great hot and cold sandwich options. My personal favorite is the Kimchi Burrito, and the new Pork Katsu burger is great too! Highly recommend Prego “

“Wine market, bar, small plates joint in a good location. Stopped in for a flight and light bite on a Saturday night. The downstairs bar/market was packed, lots of energy, and buzzing. We were upstairs because we had a reservation. Decidedly quieter up there only a couple of other folks dining, the back room had a large party (15) cozy with lighting in the right place. We started with a flight and narrowed in on Pomerol by the glass. The Somm was friendly, knowledgeable, and made a good suggestion for our final glass, a Cahors. A licorice-bomb that we really liked. On the food side, we were very basic, fries with homemade ketchup; French onion soup, with cheddar and a nice bread on the side; and roasted/fried cauliflower with yogurt, pine nuts, and pickled raisins, which was a little overdone. We didn't venture much further on the food menu, but we were really here for the wine anyway. On our way out, we perused the markets but weren't able to find that Cahors in a bottle server/somm. sensing our dilemma, procured a bottle for us from the back. Nice experience, I'd explore more by the glass options here and they have some interesting finds in the wine market.“

“Great Spot! You’ll really like it!“

“Overall the pizza was cooked well. The ingredients are fresh. Pizza came out hot and they have oil, parmesan cheese, salt pepper, and hot pepper flakes to add to your pizza on the table. The main reason I'm deducting 1 start is becuase of the pricing. I got a 9 inch pizza and added 2 additional toppings which is 19 buck for one small pizza. In a addition to a 13 dollar paloma. AND a 7$ service fee and tax all came to $44 dollars. I didn't even get an appetizer. That's pricey. I'd come back just for the pizza next time.“

“Yes come on in & enjoy the excellent serve“

“When ordering delivery via door dash you can’t get the cheese pizza without paying extra for the cheese. Pizza was good but this added cheese ($2) made it almost too cheesy. Garlic knots not buttery/oily/greasy like other places which I appreciated.“

“Went for happy hour. Appetizers were really good. Truffle fries were on point! Hot, fresh, delicious! I had shrimp taco which was good. It was $7 for 2 taco.
Nice beer selection. I love IPA, they had several to choose from.
The only caveat I had was at 7pm they started trivia. Trivia wasn't the issue, the issue was the person on the mic was extremely loud. We weren't playing trivia, we were more interested in talking to each other. The loudness was too much. We left and went down the street.“

“Love it, a great spot with character, good burgers and chicken sandwiches, and a fantastic beer list.
Bonus points for playing interesting movies and music that doesn’t rely on an algorithm!

Kid-friendliness: They have kids sliders and chicken tenders, just not seen on the main menu I think. They’re always great to our kids. And kids generally love rock music, which is what goes on here. Go before 8-ish, I think bands play after 9 or so.“

“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!“

“Peter gave good recommendations
They have beer from many nations
I like their drafts and also flights
Join in Wednesday for trivia night
Happy hour menu fills my belly
I like the street tacos and the chili
I like the bar and inside dining
The outdoor patio is the silver lining
Have a dog? It's a safe bet
It's a perfect restaurant for your pet
The urge to write poetry may appear
After 3 or 2 or one more beer
I thank you Peter for all you do
Here is my valued 5 star review“

“Great location we had a great time“

“So good. Just what we were looking for“

“Never been to that area so it looked sketchy at first. The place is not truly a sit-down kind of place so we ordered to go. We tried their Italiano pie and it was dioicous. The lady behind the counter was very friendly and quite honestly the price wasn't bad. Pleasantly surprised.“

“Great food, great beer and great service. Trifecta!“

“I had a lovely experience at Emissary Café. I tried the Morning Glow smoothie and it was absolutely fantastic—fresh, local, and honest, like it was made with care and great ingredients. The staff were incredibly kind and made me feel like a regular, even though it was my first time. I’ll definitely be back to try all the smoothies. This place has a good vibe that stays with you!“

“Food is amazing we ended up eating so much and ordered more for carry out.. Apollo fish, chetinadu chicken, goat biryani, chilli garlic fish I just cannot stop..“

“Great food! Excelente taste and great service. I will definitely come back again. The food is delicious! I will give them 6/5 stars ⭐️ Rodrigo has an amazing customer service“
