Step through the doors of the Old Ebbitt Grill and be transported to a bygone era where the warm glow of gaslight chandeliers illuminates the dark wood paneling and stained glass windows, creating an intimate and cozy atmosphere. Power-brokers who prefer old-fashioned favorites, delicious barbecue, rich chili, tasty crab cakes, and the thickest, juiciest hamburgers in the city choose to dine here. Their signature dish, the Chesapeake Bay Oysters Rockefeller, is a must-try for any seafood lover. The succulent oysters are baked to perfection in a creamy spinach and bacon sauce, leaving you wanting more. Most of the vegetables served at the Old Ebbitt Grill hail from local farms. A Sunday brunch is quite popular as well, with traditional offerings such as French toast and eggs Benedict. Complimentary valet parking is provided.
A neighborhood bar with a look of cultivated shabbiness and just the right level of grunge, Lyman's Tavern is a popular neighborhood after-hours spot. From old-school pinball machines, retro jukebox to hot dogs served in chequered paper and buttered popcorn, this bar successfully recreates the watering holes of old. Enjoy a pint of draft beer while hanging out with friends, the atmosphere is quite lively and it can get loud. You can settle in at the bar or grab a table for your group as you check out the arcade games and pinball machines, or challenge someone to a game.
