Captain Gregory's

Service: outstanding! I asked for some whiskey cocktails and EVERYTHING SINGLE ONE was delicious! Food: small bites but totally knocked it out of the park! The whiskey cocktails I got were amazing. I even receive a small champagne since it was my birthday. They have a new menu every few weeks so it's enticing to come back!!! Ambiance: very small speak easy so you'll definitely need reservations about a week in advance. Decor is like the inside of a ship. I thought it might be tacky but they did a really good job. I can't wait to go back and try their new menu!

I throughly enjoyed my experience at Captain Gregory's Christmas in the Keys! The speakeasy concept is very unique. Upon entering, you pull the flag, and you're greeted by one of the servers. We didn't make a reservation but were able to get seated on an early Saturday evening. The majority of the drinks were rum based with a few bourbon options on this rotating menu. The service was great and so were the drinks.I will definitely be back! Another Old Town Alexandria gem!

Absolutely loved my experience at Captain Gregory's. My friend was visiting town and had never been to a speakeasy. When we pulled up to park outside she mentioned that the place looked closed. I love the fun of a hidden bar and would say Captain Gregory's knocked it out the park. When we entered, the signs and posters make it look like they're a tour company selling excursions. Once we followed the instructions to enter the bar, the space was beautiful with a nautical theme. Someone came over immediately to greet and seat us. We only ordered drinks, but they were both amazing! I'd love to visit again and explore more of the menu.

It's a vibe in here. From the entrance to the drinks to the snacks we had. We were sat at the bar and enjoyed our convo with the bartender. The cocktails are $20 and I had already been drinking so just opted for one and some scallops of all things. Idk, there was a marine theme. They were yummy, i am growing very fond of scallops. The donuts were also very good. They came from next door. I really like the ambiance here and glad we got to stop by.

What a great find in Alexandria! My husband and I really enjoyed ourselves at Captain Gregory's. Definitely recommend making a reservation especially Fri-Sun or you will be waiting a while .I over heard the host mention that there was a 2hr wait so I was glad we were able to walk right in! Ambiance is very intimate, dark, romantic. Great place to have a date night, catch up with a friend or a solo night. Bonus: The playlist was fire! The menu changes quite frequently but we had the Duck Fat Tots, Pork Belly & Wagyu Burger. Chef's kiss to them all! The Pork Belly was mainly fat but that's our favorite part so no complaints from us. Drink wise, I let the bartender pick for me each round and he didn't miss! My husband stuck with the Whiskey Old Fashion which he enjoyed. We will be back!

This is a speakeasy so it is very hard to find. If you enter the restaurant that's marked on the map as Captain Gregory, you will find a flag on the wall. Pull down on that and they will let you in! It's very dark inside but they followed the pirate theme very well. It was a cool experience with strong alcoholic drinks. We ordered the Brussels sprouts which were really good. The server was also very nice. All in all, it was a cool experience!

Drinks were out of this world good. Food from the adjacent Railbird Kitchen was incredible. Small space, but not crowded. Terrific music played in the background without ruining conversation.

Deliciousness - 4/5Happiness - 4.5/5There's something so primally fun about an actual hidden bar. Whether it conjures up magical medieval castles, sordid speakeasies, or murder mystery mansions, it's just a great way to enter for your libations. And Gregory's commits fully to the bit. Once inside the hidden passage, you are very convincingly in the belly of a nautical ship.The drinks are also top notch. Fair warning, you have to be an adventurous drinker as they don't have a full menu - it's very limited to their specific cocktails. However, their drinks are pretty great and unique - replete with smoke and other cocktail goodies.The reason it's not 5 stars? The service was slow and relatively infrequent (i.e., you're sitting around awhile to wait to place your next order). And I wasn't at all impressed with the food. The devilled eggs we ordered tasted kind of sour (not the flavor profile I was looking forward) and the warm donuts were OK but too dry/crumbly. But you don't come for the food, you come for the ambiance and fantastic drinks. And you won't be disappointed!

The drinks were great. Super intimate setting, very personable service. Our bartender / mixologist, Drew, was fantastic. We ran the gamut on the drink menu and didn't find one that wasn't well made. Of course we liked some over others, but all were great. I highly recommend for what it is. If you are looking a woohoo bar night, this isn't it. If you are looking for well created drinks, a great environment, then this is it. Book a reservation. Lastly, it doesn't mean their drinks won't put you on your ass, just saying it isn't a "shots" or order whatever you want type drinks, type of place.We will definitely be back, for the great drinks and ambiance.

I'm a long time customer and fan of this establishment. Drinks are fantastic and they've an incredible revolving theme/menu for drinks and appetizers. Great place that I'll frequent for a mother decade!
