A quirky Dupont Circle hybrid that blends traditional English pub aesthetics with a laid-back atmosphere and a surprisingly authentic Thai kitchen.

🍸 Best For

Espresso martini enthusiasts, Thai food cravings, group gatherings, and budget-friendly happy hours.

🔥 Highlights

  • Martini Madness: Unbeatable happy hour deals running until 9 PM, featuring what many consider the best espresso martinis in the District.
  • The Thai Kitchen: A hidden culinary gem where the Pad See Ew and Thai specialties often outshine standard pub fare.

ℹ️ Need to Know
