ᴡ StuekerjuergenJune 26, 2017Excellent selection of beers. The smoked meats is an excellent choice. Good atmosphere. Bartender is excellent.
Wim MathuesMay 27, 2019Great selection of beers on tap, including at least 2 IPA's! Nice place to chat and drink at the bar, with a cool bartender (the big bearded guy)! Great!
Mike DeVollNovember 11, 2014Republican palooza. The food is meh, but the chicken tender and fries are delicious. The beer is list is solid. Service can be hit or miss. Bottom line, if you want fried food and booze you're set.
Edz BlancoOctober 29, 2013A good bar to watch World Series game..the waiter/bartender is really nice unlike the Russian bartender from Molly Malone bar
Amy CummingsMarch 24, 2019This is the Michigan State bar in D.C. Come cheer on the Spartans for a watch party!
Fave Hill bar for jam band music (everyone plays it on the jukebox), sweet potato fries and yummy beers. Great neighborhood joint.
Great bar food and fun events including Trivia Nights, specials, and backyard BBQs!
Kevin BeyerJanuary 20, 2012Place is awesome. Just throw some chairs together, order some sliders, and drink some beer. Good time had all around.
Larissa works the main bar and is fantastic! If you can help it always grab a seat with her.
- Check for specials! Really great wings, pizza, and burgers.
Chat up Eugene, the GM, he's entertaining and will give you great suggestions for drinks.
Amazing Sunday brunch. Make sure you add some Screw Democrats Hot Sauce to your Bloody Mary... It's delicious!
Best bar staff in town and the food is a cut above typical bar fare. Weekend brunch is outstanding.
Pete CastonguayMay 20, 2010This is a great place to hang out to cap off a night of drinking in DC while providing a always great opportunity to fight with Matt Schaub.
Uber DCOctober 15, 2013Free draft beer with your uberX receipt from 10/16/13 - 10/18/13! #DCLOVESuberX
WomplyJanuary 18, 2012Capitol Lounge has partnered with Womply to offer $15 cash back after 3 visits!
Don't know what beer you want? Give Larissa your specs and she will find one!
Andrew WisemanOctober 10, 2011Hangover sandwich is awesome. Eggs, thick bacon, cheese, tomatoes, jalapeño
Matt BattAugust 18, 2010Great deal on Tuesday with $.25 wings - plus Rebecca is a really good bartender:)
Jacob ProfferJanuary 23, 2013Good food, fair service, charged me for something I didnt order. Crab balls are crazy overpriced. Menu is hit and miss. $4-13 per beer.
The hangover sandwich on the brunch menu is delicious..
Bill DurdachJuly 16, 2011Put the night in your own hands and put money in the jukebox, great times guaranteed
Ryan KearneyJune 13, 2012Solid 25-cent wings, but that is not "blue cheese" dressing by any definition. Worst I've ever had.
Passout and sleep on the bricks outside. It's like posturepedics for real folk.
Mary P.May 5, 2012The service here is crazy terrible. The customers are really good natured about it.
Jake S. cheated you can never be the mayor because he's using a program to cheat.
Marie MonroeApril 7, 2012The female servers we had were terrible & snotty b*tches (esp the one from NY) & provided awful service, food was just mediocre. Beer & greeter were only things that were alright.
Never ate there but I just saw that they have brunch!
DC Preservation LeagueAugust 1, 2011The Capitol is both the symbol of government and of the United States. It has been occupied continuously by Congress since 1800. Noteable work of architects Benjamin Latrobe and William Thornton.
AngelikaJanuary 1, 2011They don't have Smirnoff ice and that needs to be remedied ASAP. #laurgelikaunapproves
