Corrie DavidsonMarch 21, 2013Definitely a post-work office crowd. The drinks were terrible but the food was great!!! Go for beer and taquitos at happy hour. Good AND cheap.
Official game watch home of UCLA Football and Basketball games! During UCLA games, alumni get $3 Bud Light Bottles, $4 Sierra Nevada Drafts, $4 Bruin Shooter, and select $4 appetizers. Go Bruins!
Laughing Man is now the new Mackey's location. The menu hasn't really changed. The old L St location had a similar menu anyway.
NightSceneNovember 18, 2010A classic bar. With room and space to talk, this is a great place to grab a happy hour drink after work and discuss work matters or forget about them.
- DoubleDeuceMarch 3, 2015Come here to watch the Kansas Jayhawks play whenever you're in the District. Rock Chalk Jayhawk!
Juan HuayllaAugust 15, 2015Great happy hour, good place to watch men's and women's USA soccer games.
Tuesday night is trivia night. Low key and decent happy hour priced
Melinda JacksonJuly 14, 2015Good beer selection. No wait. The happy hour food isn't the best but it's happy hour food so what do you expect.
Ryan RosadoJune 26, 2012Great hang out place. Went there for my friend's bday. Good appetizers and friendly bar tenders :).
Great after work crowd and $4 martinis on Thursdays are the best deal in town!
Watch bar for UCLA Bruins football and basketball. Great place for sports and beer.
Amanda JayneFebruary 16, 2013Tableside service = sloooooowpoke at happy hour. Happy hour until 8, though, which for some stupid reason isn't standard around here.
Drink downstairs with Manny and Mark. They are great. But beware LMT often closes early in the evenings (9pm - 10pm), so call ahead.
Katie KSeptember 25, 2011Buffalo Bills fans - awesome bar for the games! Decent wings, Blue & Blue Light specials.
The official Sponsor Bar of DC Social Kickball and DC Social Sports Club. Join us Thursdays and Sundays to learn all of our drinking games.- Miss out on the Spring Kick-off Party? Don't worry, there are more DC Social Sports Club events coming soon ... and more photos you may not remember ... Read more
Jeremy EdgeJuly 17, 2016Just a classic dc bar. Simple, not good but reminds me of my first years here.
Love Liz and Meg the bartenders are so cool..great service
Steve COctober 9, 2011Nice Bills bar. But the waitress, when she finally showed up, was wearing an Eagles shirt. During the Bills/Eagles game. How did that work out tip-wise?- The jerk wings are..GROSS. Beer And.drinks on point
Drink downstairs, and order a Mark Special. It's in your best interest.
Rice BunnieNovember 2, 2011Food is good but the service is horrible. OMG. Please get more experience cocktail servers!! Lol. I'm sipping on ice right now. (!!!!! 0_o)
The KrautsauceMarch 8, 2012Don't be fooled this is not a Buffalo bar, they only play Sabres games if it's convenient, and you have to ask to change the TV only to get a dirty look.
Service is horrible. Food is mediocre and for a USA soccer match they run out of half of their beer selection by halftime.
More like Lackey’s (thanks for kicking out the Bills backers, jerks)
No reception in the basement, crab mac and cheese is the shit though.
cori bensonJune 26, 2011Don't bother spending your hard earned money here- the staff doesn't work for it. Non-existent service.

"Members only bar two blocks from the White House, so find a buddy in the press corps and go. Pro tip: Free Taco Fridays is an institution, but you can get free nachos too. Mon-Thurs, get the burger."
Derek Wallbank - 7.4
"For sweeping views and cocktails combined with historical relevance, the Top of the Gate is certainly a D.C. staple worth visiting once."
Bitches Who Brunch - 7.4
"The Bitches say: A. Come for brunch, stay for happy hour. El Techo is a unique urban oasis that provides a perfect spot to lick your wounds from too many tequila shots at the adult tree house."

"Happening place! Service was great along with the beer. And they give@you pretzels like some restaurants do bread. An added plus!"
