JR's Bar & Grill

Fun bar with great daily Themes and drink specials weekly. I always enjoy my time here with friends and loved ones when I'm in town. The service and staff are always helpful and friendly. The drink prices are great.

Overall, I thought JR's Bar & Grill was a great and easy place for getting some adult drinks in the 'gayborhood'. *Wait, JR's has a grill?* I have to admit that I typically visit for post-brunch shenanigans on Sundays so the atmosphere might be a little different from primetime hours (e.g., Friday & Saturday nights). The prices of the cocktails are very reasonable for the area, and the bartenders are very friendly. Having visited JR's on a few occasions, I was happy to see a diverse mix of the bar's clientele (e.g., race, ethnicity, gender, and age). The two-level bar gives off the feeling of a dive bar with a touch of class. Also, it's awesome that the bar has two outdoor seating areas (with ample space in both areas) to enjoy beverages during the summer months. Like most gay bars, you can expect a lot of music from pop divas, but the music (for the most part) isn't so loud that you cannot speak to your company without shouting.

a really fun and lively gay bar in a great neighborhood! on monday nights they have "show tunes night" where they exclusively play broadway (and disney) music! it's super fun and people really show out for it. it's a large bar but doesn't have too many places to sit, it's more of a dancing and standing/chatting kind of vibe. it's quick to get a drink though and the bartenders are super fun and very kind! drinks are a great price too, beer is $4 for a draft blue moon!

We LOVED our experience at JR's during pride. The staff and patrons are friendly and welcoming, and the prices are great (especially for DC)! I really enjoyed being able to dance, drink, and feel safe and welcomed at this bar. The inside atmosphere is a classic bar, while the outside (set up for pride) was well decorated and set with furniture. Even though it was a road/lot, it felt like we were getting a real experience.

if you love disney music this is your place. drinks are normal priced for the area. small bar more like hallway with no seats.

The most welcoming of places! On the corner of entertainment and happiness - strong gin and whisky flowed in our drinks hand in hand with colorful conversation. JRs is a classic staple filled with PRIDE you have to experience to truly know it.

Came here on a Thursday at like 8:30 and it was dead! But, the bartender was super nice and we sat upstairs which had plenty of seating. I imagine it gets really crowded at night since the bar is narrow. We liked the music playing. Not sure if they have happy hour but the drinks cost normal bar prices.

Fun night! Great bartenders and fun clientele. I'll definitely go again my next trip to DC.

I've never seen more rats all at once than a New York subway. Overpriced. Rum and Coke costs you $10. For what. Music is horrible. And the crowd is smelly like those rats.

They state on their website open til 0200 on Sundays. I took a $30 Uber ride to their establishment at 2200 and arrived to find they were CLOSED!! At 10PM!?!? WTF??? I love coming to this place when I'm in town and this is stupid. Thanks for a loss of $30 for no fun!!!! WTF?!?
