Recessions

We randomly stopped in here, after searching for "Darts" at the Farragut North metro station - which was less than a 5 minute walkKaraoke night on a Friday. LGBTQ friendly. We didn't eat or drink at the bar, just ended up staying for a few karaoke songs. 2 pool tablesShow your license to get in

Came for a bar hop. I don't know if I normally would wander into an underground bar behind stairs and winding hallways. Very divey vibes.I was surprised they had a food menu and actual sit down tables. The bar is large and they seemed understaffed, or at least overwhelmed, by the number of people trying to order. It definitely took a while to get any drinks at all. Didn't notice any bar stools, either.There are screens for sports and a decent-looking karaoke setup. The drinks were good-sized and decent tasting. Not the worst dive bar on this pub crawl.

Seriously disappointing Karaoke experience. Unlike 99% of karaoke places in the world, there is no book of songs and no website with a list of karaoke songs. The DJ is too cheap to subscribe to a service, so they instead use a YouTube software package to scrape songs, the night I was there, that package was down so the only songs available were a bunch of songs from the 1960s and 1970s. Ugh! The DJ also isn't too communicative on advising people on how to hold microphone as half the singers couldn't be well heard. On the other hand, the crowd was nice. There is a pool table. And it is easy to get to as it is right next to DuPont Circle.

Do not drink the water!! The water jugs kept out for guests are moldy. When I informed the bartender and asked for a cup of water (and showed her a photo of the mold) she was unbelievably rude and mocked me after I apologized for the inconvenience. She flat out refused to serve my friends cups of water even though the bar was completely empty. I understand that it's an inconvenience, but this is a hazard. I had informed this same bartender about the mold in the jugs on a prior visit a few months ago and wasn't taken seriously. I came back because this is a convenient location with lots of karaoke options, but after this encounter with the bartender I never want to come back.

Not too much stools at the bar. The bar tender was really nice. You also can get a Goose Island, so for a guy who used to live in Chicago, it's a big deal. I don't think I want to get back there, honestly. Not my type of place.

My friends and I tried to visit this place so we could do some karaoke this weekend. We were met by the bouncer being incredibly incredibly rude which is crazy because the place was practically deserted but to each their own, I guess. They could definitely improve on having nicer staff, especially at the door, if you guys want more people to come in, maybe be kind.

Simply just ordered takeout. Bought a burger and onion rings for like $18. The doorman was nice. The lady waitress behind the bar was nice onion rings crisp. Not much else to say. I was in DC for just a weekend.

Have never really heard of this place until my friend took me before going downtown in DC. It's definitely a hole in the wall spot that has its charm. The interior reminded me of an underground dive bar. There was lots to do while drinking including karaoke, pool, watch tv, etc. The service was pretty good, as I was able to meet the owner, and he treated us very well.In terms of food, I had the Lamb Chops and fries. The meat was cooked perfect and was juicy and tender. Additionally, the fries were seasoned and crispy. Overall, a fun bar with great food and great ownership/service. Highly recommend to anyone in DC.

My friends met there and they just got married. Love is real. Is Recessions community? Sewage issue mostly fixed.

Dropped by at 5:30 pm on a Saturday since their webpage says they open at 5:00pm. The doors were locked. After a few minutes a few employees came out in order to move a truck that was parked in the bike lane. I asked if they were open, and they said that they opened at 7:00pm on Saturdays. I told them that they should update their webpage. They just walked away like they did not give a sh*t.
