Bar Pilar

The small plates menu changes often, but includes favorites likea chicken liver pate and a stinging nettle quiche . To drink, try the Ruffled Shirt or the boozy Cuba Libre float. [Eater 38 Member]

Opt for the baller brunch . The frittata & goi ga salad are fresh & clean , but get a biscuit on the side. When you need something a little more the fried chicken biscuit , pork hash , & BLT do the trick.

Stop by here during the wee hours, as Bar Pilar is now serving until 1 a.m. The late-night menu includes slow-roasted pork shoulder , lard-fried buttermilk chicken , and potatoes with malt aioli : Read more

Slow and Low Whiskey ...ON TAP !!! Delicious whiskey with a perfect sweetness due to being fermented with orange peel and honey . Makes for a wonderful Old Fashioned.

Go for the lard-fried buttermilk chicken . It's soaked overnight in a brine with rosemary , parsley , bay leaf, lemons and apples before it's coated with seasoned flour and a dip in pork fat . Read more

Bar Pilar is one part restaurant — with a seasonal menu that veers from classic fried chicken to the more intriguing pan-fried calves brains — and one part watering hole. [Eater 38 Member] Read more

One of the most enjoyable spots to start or end a night while on 14th. Reasonable prices and a really laid back and beautiful clientele.

Phenomenal food! Check out the apple pie with bacon butterscotch ! Perfect way to end a delicious meal.

Recent standouts on the menu have been roasted mushrooms w/ braised leeks ; crispy potatoes w/ malt aïoli ; honey-glazed carrots w/ shallots and thyme ; strawberry-rhubarb crumb pie w/ vanilla ice cream

Octopus was top notch. Also try the winter cocktail it was amazing. Not too sweet and no weird medicine flavor to their cherry flavour

Get the happy hour fancy Mac 'n Cheese . You won't regret it. Ours was shrimp , tomatoes and spices, but it varies. So delicious.

Love this place. Chicken liver sriracha pate , Brussels, shaking beef salad and charred octopus were all on point.

Absolutely astounding food. Mushrooms , potatoes and beets are very complex and thought provoking. Can't believe it took over a year to eat here. Drinks awesome too.

Try the buttermilk fried chicken skins — with spicy maple sriracha dip !

Try the Tequila Sunset Slushie . Served in a 350ml Patron bottle and only at the upstairs cocktail lounge .

This is the neighborhood bar of our dreams, with marvelous cocktails , a lived-in patina, genial bartenders , and Justin Bittner’s ever-changing seasonal small plates .

The paté , the pork shank , the lamb belly !!! Soo good

Thelema Shiraz blend is great…very flavorful. Lamb belly bolognese is tender & delicious!

I highly recommend the Bees in the Beer if you are a fan of IPA (American Turkey Wild Honey , Flying Dog IPA , Garnished with honeycomb )

Menu changes , but the buttermilk fried chicken and the hangover cure were amazeballs

The locals know best and they flock here. Would have a beer and a smoke outside here anytime

Best music in this place. Skip the Smirnoff ice drink. The rest is great!

Maestro Collins and the Tequila Sunset are a must have.

Taco Tuesday was very good. Build your own tacos . The homemade verde salsa was very tasty.

Billy Klein, chef of Joe's Seafood , eats here on his nights off. He loves the Lard fried buttermilk chicken w/ pickles . Read more

The menu changes regularly but there are always a lot of vegetarian options . You should always get the roasted potatoes with the malt aoli . Read more

Excellent choice of bottles and an exceptional bar staff .

Some of the best small plates in the Logan Circle / U Street area. No trip is complete without an order of the homemade meatballs .

Great and inventive small plates with some of Hemmingway's favorite cocktails

Decent local craft beer selection . Craft cocktails are strong!

Loved the duck confit & great cocktails !

Mason jar drinks during brunch are the best!

Ask to be seated in Alex's area. Order everything she recommends.

Gets a bit too crowded for me at night, but the cocktails are pretty dang good

Happy hour is unique. Sliders are unreal.

Ask the bartender , Barnaby, for "Break a Greg" if you are looking for an awesome and spicy cocktail

Great bar ! Hemingway everything!

From Washingtonian: Bloody Mary , bull 's eye toast , pancakes , biscuits , skillet potatoes

The best subtly nautical-themed dive on 14th Street.

Washingtonian recommends the pizzas , mac and cheese , and half-smoke.

Get the Jamon Serrano Eggs Benedict with home fries . Best brunch ever.

The roasted pork shoulder on garlic trencher is so very very yum.

The hangover cure is like heaven in a bowl! Take with two Advil and you'll be ready to go!!!

Summer Tuesdays, get the crab cracking dinner with locally sourced sides & a cold DC Brau ale !

Drinks here are good wait staff knowledgable ... Try anything Hemingway would!

loved the Bloody Mary here

Hemingway cocktail , order it!

If it's on the dessert menu , get the strawberry shortcake . Delicious & w/an unexpected hint of basil . Nom

The Hemingway daiquiri was very refreshing but not as boozy as I'd wished it would be. Very meh service.

Bitches Say B! Pancakes are great, Hangover Cure cures hangovers. Skip the biscuits . Expect grease.
