Walked in and turned around. Wasn’t my crowd BUT will I will say is, the energy was warm and kind. And, I love that in Northern VA everyone has spaces to enjoy themselves. You guys are clearly doing something right. Cheers!

Pete's Tavern is the place to be on Friday and Saturday night. Great bands, delicious food, good friends, a big dance floor, and a friendly atmosphere.

Modern day CHEERS! BEST bar in the DMV! AMAZING PLACE! GREAT vibe/bands/staff/food/bar/service, and the most warm and welcoming staff and "regulars"! Remember the show "CHEERS"? Rename it Pete's! "Where everybody knows your name and they're always glad you came." Just add terrific live music, great acoustics, and the best dance floor around! Truly impressive across the board - friendly, welcoming and FUN. Pete, Kelly and their team are true professionals; they love their work and make sure everyone feels welcome. Pete personally goes from table to table - when he's not joining the band/playing guitar! Kelly is wonderful, kind, warm, and consistently books the BEST bands around. Bartender Bo is indeed "super cool" and funny. Servers Mario and Andrea are helpful, attentive, efficient, and keep everyone very well-fed. Chef Pete (different one) regularly impresses with tasty appetizers, entrees, salads (Greek is a fave), desserts, and more. More than worth a visit - keep going back! I'm proud to be a regular (OK - groupie/super-fan) and my nights at Pete's are true weekend highlights. Thanks to everyone at Pete's for providing night after night of great food, music, and community! I've made some lifelong friends and would recommend Pete's to anyone wanting a fun night out with great people.

The ribeye was the best I've had in a very long time if not the best ever. It was amazing as well as the convo with Pete and the bartender.

This is a great venue for food, drink, and music. I had the cheeseburger and fries and found they used a high grade of beef for them - they were so good, I had 2 that night. A good time for sure!

As the wise Obi-Wan Kenobi famously said: I have never seen a more wretched Hive of scum and villainy. Just kidding. This place is a solid place. There is a lot of floor space a lot of good live music, dancing if you want, and good priced drinks of all types. Standard pub grub provides basic fuel to soak in the suds. This place is exactly somebody's cup of tea- those who love it love it, who am I to judge:)

Pete's Tavern was a fantastic experience. People from 21 to 81 hanging out together, enjoying live rock and roll and dancing. Great burgers! We'll be back!

Hidden gem in Springfield. Very clean and the wait staff was very attentive. We had the cheese steak, wings and Chicken Marsala and it was all very tasty and good. The live music by Diamond Alley was very fun. A good time was had by all!
