The Bottom Line

I absolutely love the vibe of places like these---it's the kind of bars you see on TV and in movies where it's cozy, people are playing pool, it's got a hometown bar feel, warm booths, low-hanging decorations, affordable drinks, personalized service, and owned by locals. They're not bothered by big businesses like OpenTable or Resy for reservations. I emailed the owner, and he got me a table. Simple!The space is large for where it is in downtown DC. It doesn't have that annoying bougieness with $20 drinks and fancy drink glasses and garnishes. The food is good, unassuming, and served fast. The drinks are varied, tasty, and affordable. The service is friendly, warm, and genuine. I am totally coming back and recommending it to everyone I know.

The waitress Narin (sorry if I spelled that wrong) was amazing it was 6 of us and the wait wasn't that long. Any party over five they do put under one bill! But otherwise I ordered the jerk chicken with Bbq sauce and fries. It wasn't what I expected but at the same time I didn't know what to expect. It wasn't bad though. I also ordered the I street breeze and and another drink. One friend ordered a cheeseburger with tator tots, another ordered a quesadilla, a chicken Caesar wrap, and I believe a Philly steak and cheese sandwhich. Everyone enjoyed their food though and the prices aren't that and. Especially with drinks 10/10Highly recommend

The Bottom Line is a chill underground dive relatively close to all of the action in DC. I swung in here last week with my friend Lane while staying in the city for the week. The drinks and food were both pretty great. Pretty standard for a dive bar, but not bad. Service was decent as well. We were waited on and served relatively quickly. There are plenty of tvs in the bar. It was pretty loud, but nothing unexpected.

Nice little underground bar! This place has probably been around for a long time. Farragut West metro is about a minute walk away.Farragut North metro is about a 5 minute walkYou have to walk down steps to go into the bar. I was there on a Thursday @ 130. The bar/restaurant was at 70% full. Folks began leaving prob 2 from lunch.They have happy hour. I got the nachos, good. Came with a spicy sauce on the side. Good. Bartender (maybe his name was Eric or Eddie) was amazing!Friend had chicken wings. They smell good and sounded hella crunchy. lol.This would be a perfect neighborhood bar gem. I would def. come back!

Solid pub. Burger was very tasty. Bar staff was very friendly and efficient. Good selection of draft beers. Outside seating for those nice days. Plenty of tvs and all hard sports playing! Music was a little loud for me but overall a spot worth visiting.

Nachos: bar nachos are usually a hit or miss. this one? absolute hit. Gorgeous platter. Fresh & hot. Gorgeous hefty combination of all the perfect toppings. Perfectly crispy tortilla chips. God is real. God is good. All else: music here is so nostalgic. gorgeous bar during the winter season. just a good D.C. classic. It's not the most spacious so it feels cozy & intimate. Bartenders were real nice. The music was blaring at one point and we told them to tune it down a bit. (I am not old I just get overstimulated very easily). Would recommend, 10/10.

Fun bar for a nightcap. Head down to steps to the basement location. This is a very casual spot. Been here for years according to my friends. They pour a good Guinness. Nine dollars for a pint. $12 for your typical cocktail. Or $13 or $14 if you go up a shelf. Fast and friendly service. Plenty of TVs for sports ball watching. They were playing a fun mix, so we ended up dancing a bit.

Staff was nice, place was empty but annoyingly loud. Very cool to have all the sports games on. Food wasn't great but was reasonably priced.

Lively spot in DC, a bit crowded but perfect for watching football games. I had some Moscow mules and a fried chicken sandwich. The service was great, and the food and drinks were awesome. It's a Bengals fan bar, so it's an excellent spot for Bengals fans to meet up! After each touchdown, the bar gets super loud and sings songs, and they even bring around free shots for everyone 21+. They're nothing strong- but they're free, so it was a nice touch. Overall, I had a great time.

Great bar close to the White House. The food was great and the staff was excellent. Good place to catch a game and not too noisy. Ordered the fish and chips. Large thin pieces of fish that were fried and seasoned perfectly. The tartar sauce was creamy and the fries perfect.
