We were at the establishment early. Wanted to sit and have some drinks. A Hispanic gentleman came out and told us they were not open yet. We smiled and thanked him for letting us wait there for the opening. I got some fries from the place next door since we had1/2 an hour. My husband worked on his phone as we waited.
At 15 minutes until open, I was told because I had the other resturants fries, we had to leave. Really? I told him we were waiting for the opening. He didn't care. Was looking forward to some drinks and a relaxing lunch. Thirsty or not, he isn't getting our business. Very rude.

Sat at an outside table, received our water and then waited for service. And waited for service, and waited for service. Waiter finally came and we asked him for help. We're told to order from the app and it would be brought out. Here's a concept, tell people that when they sit down, don't assume.

The smoked turkey avocado bacon lettuce on ciabatta was so good. The turkey was sliced thick and had a great smoke taste the lettuce was crisp and cold an excellent combination. I can not have dairy so I had to omit the pesto but the sandwich was the best turkey blta I’ve ever had.
We ordered the garlic fries and they too did not disappoint! Warm crisp and flavorful with the perfect amount of garlic. Not overpowering.
We also had the 1.5 lbs of wings Buffalo and they were the meatiest wings! We’ve been on a taste comparison lately trying “the best” wings and these were one of my favorites. (Hard to beat award winners in Buffalo NY) but they were up there. Not too spicy.
It was a chilly night in the low 50s and we sat in what was parking but has been converted to seating with wood heaters and tv screens. It was a pleasant experience and id definitely recommend it for everyone.
Lots of outdoor seating patio was heated, outside under the umbrellas had gas heaters spread throughout the high top tables and then the picnic bench are we were in also had heaters.
You scan the QR at your table and pay in the app. Someone will bring the food to you.
Really great.

Hope y’all knew this was coming. Came in with my family after seeing some of the sites. Waitress was wonderful. All I can say is that the lemonade tasted great. After over 45 minutes of waiting and seeing not 1, not 2, but 3 people get there food after we came in was deplorable. And after speaking to the manager I didn’t get a “give us a few more minutes” or “here’s some kind of voucher for next time. ” I got basically was told the kitchen is backed up which sucks for you so bye.
Will tell all my family and friends to avoid this place.

The chili was the highlight. Guacamole was dark green, so obviously not “fresh” as advertised by waitress. Cheesesteak was okay but really dry as was the grilled chicken salad. Other good places to visit, why waste your calories here unless you want to hang out to have a beer. Wait staff was very friendly.

Friendly folks. Nice outdoor patio. Could do without people asking you to buy them some food. If purchasing a drink, don't think you are going to get more than 2 drinks out of a carafe, just buy 2 separate drinks. Trust me. The Philly was amazeballs! If you go to drink, order 2 drinks and have the 3rd on the way when you finish the first, if they are busy.

My group of friends and I go to Penn Quarter Sports Tavern every month for a happy hour get together. We love the venue! Staff are super responsive to our needs; they even created a mocktail menu specifically for our happy hours! The drinks and food are yummy. I love the margaritas, and the quesadillas are really good, too. They've got lots of options for snacks if you don't want a full meal. This is a great place for sports fans and non-sporty people alike. Most of my friends and I are not very sporty at all, and we still really enjoy the atmosphere. They've got a large outdoor space, which has been great during covid times, and we've felt super comfortable there. The only downside to this bar is that, like many DC bars, the bathrooms are upstairs. I don't know if they have an elevator in the back, so if you need a handicap accessible location, you may want to look into that first. Overall, we're really lucky to have found this place, and plan to keep going back for our monthly get-togethers.

This is exactly what you'd want in a sports bar. First, the food and the drinks are great! Everything is fresh, hot, and served quickly. But, the best thing is the service. The bartenders and wait staff could not have been more friendly, and attentive. And, it wasn't just us. I watched as countless people asked for the TVs to be changed, or for additional items, and every single server obliged with a smile. If you're downtown DC and want a quick, reliable place to grab a bite, or watch a game - this is your spot.
