Great basement bar to nurse a cocktail in on a balmy summer day. Georgetown peach tea was my fav

Arun Ramachandran

Beer fries and Tomb 's ale are popular and totally worth it. This place is wild on Saturday nights and has the college crowd swarming it. Fun place!

Nancy Lafontant-Whiting

I had the Salmon burger and Caesar salad . My husband had the Fried Buttermilk chicken sandwich . Both sandwiches were delicious. The chicken was nice and tender. It wasn’t dry at all.

Arun Ramachandran

The atmosphere is so electric with the college crowd . Every song and every beat is accounted for. Check out the Tomb's Ale . It's simply the best beer here.

Carolyn Zimmerman

Great atmosphere and unique menu. Had the confessional burger which was a new menu item - very good. Looks like they have good, cheap late night specials too.

Jakka Jakka

Fish n chips or the gyro can't go wrong. Off menu the Buffalo chicken sandwich is great.

Jessie Van Amburg

"The Corruption" IPA is one of the best beers I have ever had. However, beware: there's a lot of douchey bros that like to come here. So free entertainment to go with your drinks!

Thomas Wong

Chicken Sandwich #1 and the Cheeseburgers are the best you will find in any bar/restaurant in the World! Hoya Saxa!

Stephen Sanders

I didn't go to Georgetown but the Tombs makes me wish that I did. Possibly the best college pub in America. I love the Tombs ale .

Chris

Order a spiked caramel macchiato , best damn 'shake in the city . I promise you. Perfect to split between two making it just $5 each!

Now Owl

When I need a nachos fix, this is my go to place in DC. They don't skimp on the fresh ingredients (thick slices of tomatoes and jalapenos ) and refried beans . Fried green tomato BLT solid alternative

Kevin Leahy

They now have a happy hour ! Mon-Thurs 4-6 they have $3 mugs of local craft beers . And $9 pitchers of Coors Light all the time

Leandro Lagera

My biggest memory of this place is throwing up...nvm. Guiness for the win and getting drunk and having to walk down a steep hill

Oge Marques

Great beer , delicious food, excellent service, wonderful atmosphere. This is my favorite pub in Georgetown, hands down!

Xavier A

Best mozzarella sticks in DC and I have actually been searching. Best by a longshot so far.

Don P

Atmosphere is awesome! Fish and Chips were flavorless. Coleslaw was the same, very little flavor.

They have sweet potato fries . They're not on the menu . Roast chicken when in season is the bomb.

Jake Lefkovitz

Their specialty egg rolls are very good, as is their rice bowls

Nick Palmer

Very cool place. Take advantage of their study snacks and drink specials

Maggie MacG

Go underground and pretend it's St. Elmo's Fire... interesting spot; vintage Georgetown.

maria gutierrez

Super great food. Bamba taco was the best. Barbarcoba was delicious as well !

Brian Wells

Recently purchased by Clyde's Group. But still a great place to eat.

Chris

Fridays at midnight the place turns into a makeshift club. Beware of the overpacked bar and dance floor though.

Babybeartree L

The Veggie napoleon is wonderful! I'll be merrier if they can make it bigger;)

Henry Clark

I like to think of this place as my little secret in the historic Georgetown neighborhood !

Chris Fredericks

Cheap beer and relive your college years. You'll hear St. Elmo's Fire at least once . . .

Josh Higgins

The food is good and cheap . The atmosphere is great too.

Zoe

Nachos , good beer selection , half bottles on Sunday

Connie Haro

The sauce murdered the sirloin . Ask for it on the side. Tombs ale is good!

Jessica Placencia

Cool little underground spot good for chilling.

Rudi Riet

The milkshakes , while thin in texture, are very tasty and big enough to share.

Olmedo Miranda

Great bar at Georgetown. Full college vibe

Sam Odle

Try any of the cask aged beers !

Jordan Dansky

Don't miss country night on Mondays! $3 bourbon drinks and great music

Ishita Kohli

Buffalo chicken sandwich is by far the best thing on the late night menu

greg smith

Good beer but you gotta be weary of any clientele that's ok with a Wehrmacht recruitment poster.

Mary

Love this place! Great place to relax after a long day of shopping ;)

Renzo Alberto

Try the strawberry or chocolate milkshake ! Also, if you like goat cheese , ask for it on your salad :)

Alexander Pon

You must get spicy ranch for your fries .

Sam Odle

Mixed drinks , bar food , rowing. But no Cornell oar in the back room...

Vanessa Gallo

Fun place for a drink when you are waiting for your reservation at 1789 next door

Miguel Monteverde

Beer . It’s a good thing lace for beer .

Try the Tombs Ale ! It's pretty delicious and generic like the rest of Georgetown.

Hunter Ligon

Best bar in Georgetown, one of my favorite bars ever.

Hoya Blue is the best drink here! I highly recommend this drink
