The Elroy

Came on a Saturday night, around 10pmMusic was being played on a laptop I guess. The speakers were terrible. All muffled and the place was only playing trap musicPlace upstairs is hella small and as the night went on it got too crowded. We were probably there for an hour before leaving.I would not return

Drinks, the music and the vibe were soooooo good!! Will be back when I'm in the DMV area. Paradise our server was the shit! Service was amazing!!

During 2018 H Street festival some friends and I stopped at a bar called Elroy. We was greeted by the owner I believe her name is Donna. This was a quaint bar as much of bars on H Street but it had a lively and friendly vibe. They offered happy hour drink special, and you can do hookah. The bartenders were on point. Downfall, Elroy don't serve food but you can bring your own food in from one of the local establishments. Elroy have a DJ and she was excellent. I would defiantly go back again and patronize this minority business.

I went to The Elroy last night and got a fried fish dinner and it was DELICIOUS! The Mac and cheese is to die for that chef has the hands It was socially distanced and a great music selection and the outdoor patio has a very welcoming vibe I'll definitely be back!

The Elroy just opened up on May 25th, and still smelled new when we went for drinks for a friend's birthday on the 28th. Yes, a bar smelled NEW. Crazy huh? Anyway, they still had some kinks to iron out such as stocking the bar upstairs and taking the price tag off the grill they bought at Home Depot. The Elroy definitely shows promise. Similar to other places on H, there are two levels and a back deck that is fenced in. There is a bar on both floors, but the first floor one is more substantial. Drinks were average priced, but came in those slanty glasses, so be forewarned that if you're not used to them, you will spill. (You'll see what I mean). Upstairs there are a few padded benches along the wall and drink tables and chairs to accomodate groups. Hopefully they've put up a curtain or something to block the direct in-your-face beams from the street light outside. The coolest thing though? When you're in the bathroom on the second floor, it's one way glass, so you can see out, but people can't see in with normal lighting conditions.

They charge $20 for men $15 for women entry. Waaay to high for this small venue w/o a dance floor. Taking advantage. Also, by the end of the night the lounge was full of lesbians. That was my que to leave. ‍

Stopped by on a whim with 3 of my friends while just looking for a bar to hangout at after dinner. The bartender Ashley was very friendly and helpful. Bar menu for drinks were very reasonable pricing ranging from $5-$14 for rail liquor. The yelp check in gets you a rail shot for free. It was a real Dj, it was someone playing music off his phone which kind of sucked when he would get notifications. Security guard Matt was very friendly as well. It was a chill environment. Bar area downstairs was very small. Didn't get a chance to go upstairs. It was cool for a quick drink.

Pro small businesses. Especially in my neighborhood. Undoubtedly must show love to black owned businesses. Big ups. Second visit, detoured from my usual bar down the street. Major mistake. Incredibly blown. Service is a shame. Terrible. Fought for any minuscule bit of attention to order. Put my order in and after 5 min still had no drink. Order was simple, mad easy, something quick- double whiskey. Bartender couldn't flirt and take my money at the same time. Was rudeness in my eyes, the disregard. Second visit, so sad about it. First visit I sat and ate with a friend. Food was okay. White wine was warm. Service was friendly. Good on this place. Back to copy cat I go. Mad Unfortunate. Best of luck black owned Elroy. I hope u win.

Service was great, the vibes were real intimate and chill. The servers were very attentive. The drinks were very good and so far the best hookah I've ever had in DC!

Great music. Good environment if you just want to chill and kick it a little. Terrible hookah.
