Quintessential dive! I love this place, it's nice and dark . It has an extensive menu (although I wish it had more ciders). Even when it's busy you don't have to wait too long to get service. I've always enjoyed talking to the bartenders who are friendly but also cool (if that makes sense?). They also offer free popcorn! I know it's so people drink more, but popcorn is a million times better than peanuts or pretzels. Since they don't otherwise order food, they let you bring in your own. I enjoyed having a drink with my Shake Shack.My one complaint is that there aren't more seating options. Those fill up quickly on weekends when it's busy. I haven't been there for trivia, but I heard it gets super busy. Would love to check it out sometime.

We came here with some local DC people. I didn't know what to expect when we walked down the stairs. They give you a koozie with your first round. Great advertising!. They have a large menu, which included a beer and shot combo. Also a great idea. I love that they had a bookshelf filled with games. Part of our group enjoyed a "heated" game of trouble

Kingfisher is probably one of my favorite bars in all of Washington, D.C. It's a zero frills low key vibe. Get your bucket of popcorn with your favorite canned beer or wine and chill out with some friends. The bartenders are always friendly so that's definitely a plus too. If you're going with a big group, I recommend going earlier to make sure you can get seating.

Came here to meet up with a friend. You can easily miss this spot as the liquor store sign is a lot more visible. If you are walking from the metro station, it's a few doors past Players Club.Free popcorn. That's pretty much the only food you need from here. Freshly baked often. The beer menu is pretty extensive. The only stout they had available at the time was the Caboose Hobo ($13). All served with the original can and they give you a coozie to take with you. Not a bad place to meet up with friends or go out for the night. Someone else decided it was good enough to host a birthday party.

Fun bar to go with friends! The music is great and I love the popcorn when you're having a late night and want a little snack.

Kingfisher really hit the spot. After a long day of meetings at work, a few colleagues, and I went in to unwind. This is a very cool and relaxed spot. The drinks were wonderful and everyone was extremely nice. It was pretty busy, but not packed. It definitely has that neighborhood bar feeling. Their popcorn is a great touch.

Been coming here for years. Best bar, best bartenders. Who doesn't love an underground bar playing old movies and serving popcorn? All the bartenders are phenomenal, but Tracey seriously hits it out of the park. Never felt more comfortable or welcomed in a DC bar. Whether I come here solo or with friends, she never makes me feel alone. This place checks all the boxes, and Tracey never misses a beat.

Bartender is extremely rude - we sat down at a table with a few drinks on it so that we could claim it, as it was a bit crowded. The way the man acted, you would have thought we had flipped him off. He scoffed and threw his arms out and used a rude demeanor instead of just asking us to move. Continued to be rude when we ordered drinks - probably won't be coming back.

the guy bartender at night (4/13) was so so rude. My friends and i said "hey" when he looked in our direction and he acted so offended and said "hey? thats rude" and said he was too busy grabbing the few cups on the bar to serve us. so at that point we said nevermind and we even apologized and said we are bartenders and weren't trying to be rude and he just shrugged. as a fellow bartender, get over yourself respectfull!!! I had the worst experience i have ever had at a bar. you should be so ashamed!!'
