5 star dive bar! Outstanding representation of a true hole in the wall dive bar. Eclectic decor and inviting staff. Diverse patrons made me feel right at home like I’ve been coming here for years....
My favorite place to grab a cheap beer in DC. Laid back, dive bar atmosphere. Would definitely recommend to anyone. Visit every time I’m in the city.
