I kind of loved everything about QHT. My friends kept calling it a dive bar but I feel like it's so much more, it's what every dive bar WISHES they could be. Sure, there's the dim lighting, basement setting, laidback vibe. But there's also a fantastic menu for both beer and food, super friendly service, and a space for live music (which I am definitely coming back for). I had such a nice time here with my friends, and it's the kind of place that would be great for a date or for a solo night out too. I'm withholding one star for now because they were out of the New Trail stout that I was thrilled to see on the menu, but when I come back for a show, maybe that will make it worth an update.

The Quarry House is a DMV institution. They have great burgers, great tots, a great atmosphere, great events like trivia and live music, great beers, and a great happy hour. Service is friendly and straightforward. Everyone should visit at least once.On a recent visit, I got the bacon and cheddar burger ($14) with tots ($2), a Peabody Heights Old Oriole Park pilsner ($3.67), and an ESB ($6 ish on happy hour). The burger and tots were perfectly cooked and delicious. The beers also reasonably priced and tasty.The Quarry House is in a basement and is a dive bar with tons of character. Go check it out.

I have been coming here for years. Its your typical local dark dive bar with great food and drinks. The Monday burger specials are a must. They have lost their crowd over the years, but the food and drinks are still consistent. They also have great happy hour specials between 3-6 PM. If you're from the area you know about this place. Parking is easy to find with plenty of street parking and there is a lot about 2 blocks away.

Whaaaaaattttt? How have I not reviewed one of my fav 3 dive bars ever???Well, it is not actually that divey but it's a local institution. Ask for their whiskey options and you'll spend the whole night going through the menu. Ask for the beer options, you'll be handed a book. Love the Friday nights for the live music. It was my staple for many years, even if for 30 mins. Probably brought all my friends who visited me when I was staying in DTown SS. It was also a great first date place. Tater tots was a must along with their regular burgers (without cheese). Although it closed in 2015 after the devastating fire for many months, was extremely happy to see it re-open after many months. QHT : May you spread happiness for many more decades.

Super cute dive bar - greasy and incredibly delicious burgers and decent drink pours. They have a lot of space in the bar at the back as well and you can join tables together. They have space where you could potentially have larger parties too. For drinks they have a pretty extensive menu with a few upscale options as well. It's a chill and simple bar and the service is good

I have a feeling that this will be my go-to place for burgers with a side of adult beverages in a chill environment. If you are a beer lover, Quarry House Tavern definitely is the place for you. OMG! The beer menu is HUGE and has a wide variety of beers in its curriculum vitae or BV (a nice play on the term, CV). The vibe of Quarry House gives the epitome of dive bar - dark, interesting smells, bathroom graffiti, low-key, jukebox 'soundtrack', out of the cut, no frills, and keeping it real. At 1st I have to admit that I thought the two bartenders were kind too cool for school; however, they are very nice and engaging with the bar's clientele. Also, their service is efficient and prompt. If you have any questions about Quarry House's interesting cocktails, they will definitely give you some great suggestions. While I've visited Quarry House on two separate occasions, I hope that there are many visits in my future. My short-term goal is to visit enough times, to try all of of the tavern's burgers.

It's been five years since my last visit to QH and its still everything I remembered and wanted. A quirky dive bar that has great beers and spirits. The food continues to be excellent and served quickly. The burgers are quite good (I would love a bit of seasoning in the patties, but that's me) and the tater tots are always a crowd pleaser. We also enjoyed the pretzels. This place has continued to be a great bar in DTSS and I hope to continue patronizing them for many years to come. I'll also have to check out their trivia next time.

I'm a fan of the QH. It's a great dive bar in the heart of Silver Spring. A hidden staircase takes you in to one of the best dive bars in the DMV. A great selection of local beers and an extensive liquor list. The menu is limited mostly burgers and appetizers. They have a great daily happy hour. Our waiter Tom was fantastic. Trivia night is fun and not to serious. I would give it 5 stars but their policy regarding checks for tables over 6 is not good. Instead of letting you split out the check or do individual checks. They say they can run credit cards if you evenly divide the check. WTH? Why should someone who has a meal an appetizer and no alcohol have to potentially pay for someone's 6 beers. I recommend you bring a bit of cash to avoid this situation which put a damper on a fun night.
