We only ordered drinks & sat upstairs overlooking the Warf. Beautiful views & refreshing drinks go great together!They have some outdoor games and big screen projectors to watch a game or? There's a decent drink menu with plenty of options to find something you like to drink.Our service was good no complaints here !

Fun outdoor bar. A great drink menu. The sweet heat margarita is amazing. The bartender was nice. Snack menu could have been better.

Location really sets Cantina Bambina apart. Located in between the ice skating rink and the Anthem on the 2nd floor, you are able to get great people watching of ice skaters on one side or the Wharf crowd and concert goers on the other. Staff were fast and friendly and they had a great mix of seasonally themed cocktails, Food was limited to overpriced snacks so find somewhere to eat before or after.

You know I'm not going to lie, I don't really find anything special about Cantina Bambina. Yeah it has great views but it's also very packed and can be a pain to get your order in when others are trying to do the same thing. There's alcohol on tap, cocktails, and even... Snacks that you can buy too. It is a bit pricey so be cautious when you wonder why draft beer is 9 bucks per bottle. I learned the hard way but you're in DC. These prices aren't nothing new if you are a regular but sometimes it is what it is.I got the Cherry Blossom Beer and it was sour enough that I ended up buying Cloud on draft for my friend and I. I don't think the Cherry Blossom Beer is for me. Please avoid it.

I swear I've written a review in the past. BUT Ok.Cantina Bambina is what replaced Cantina Maria on the Wharf. It is the perfect place to wait for your water taxi or a pre-show drink before you go to a show. They only have happy hour specials M-F. Service is always fast & friendly. Not sure the food situation because I've only had drinks. Nice views & atmosphere. Drinks are a bit pricey but it's The Wharf and location, location, location.

Visited the snow globe-reasonable priced holiday drinks. The ambience is so cozy and festive with a great view and ice skating right below. Bartenders were friendly and replaced the propane right when the fire table went out. If you're looking for a cozy bar to ring in some holiday spirit you'll love the snow globe.

We really enjoy the seasonal transitions in decor and beverage offerings. Currently it's a snow globe theme and we tried the egg nog drink and their easy Irish coffee. There are a few fire pits, but they are in high demand. It's not big, but we appreciate the open air feeling that this place offers. The views of sunset over the river are amazing. They offer a few snacks, but no real food, so don't come hungry.

Buyer beware. Drink prices are made up depending on what you look like or how much she thinks you have had to drink. Unfair really if you think anout it. Can't even trust the lady at the bartender. Ruins the whole vibe you know. I can say the margaritas were EXCELLENT ***** But one time they were $14. One time they are $15.50. Next one was $17.50. Reminds me of "Whose Line is It Anyway". The price is made up and the cost doesn't matter anyway.
