My husband and I ate here for the 1st time on Friday night for dinner. It was a rare 70 degree day in January and it was so enjoyable to be on the patio. The restaurant was very busy and seemed a bit understaffed (server was also handling hostess duties) but the servers did not skip a beat. They were very attentive and friendly. I wanted a mocktail (there wasn't one on the menu) but the server made one up for me that was really delicious. The food was tasty. I especially loved the claim chowder and the cheese plate.

Service was good. The waitresses were nice but the food was TERRIBLE. It’s very basic bar food made fancy but not what you’d expect for the price. My lettuce wraps were not even wrapped and I got the tiniest bowl with the crab salad completely tasteless. Beer menu was very basic too - just IPA’s. If you want cocktails, go for it but eat somewhere else first.

My experience at Brass Rabbit was lovely. Through the food, service, and atmosphere this experience was a great way to kick off my Mother’s Day. The food was amazing, it came out quickly and we were not disappointed. The appetizers were exquisite and the drinks were phenomenal. The entrees also did not disappoint, they were filling, hot, and came out quickly. The service did not disappoint. Our waiters were friendly and accommodating they didn’t mess up our orders, and they gave great suggestions on what to order. Overall, the service was wonderful and makes me want to come again. Lastly, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the tables were cool looking. Though the seats were constantly fighting me, I won so I had a good experience. The atmosphere was calm with sports on the tv’s so my family and I didn’t get bored. Overall, my experience at the Brass Rabbit is a great restaurant which I would love to go to again. From the Mother’s Day accommodations to the food and the service. I would not sleep on the Brass Rabbit and I will recommend it to all my friends.

The best espresso martini I’ve ever had! Also tried the cosmo martini which was excellent. The atmosphere is super nice and the decor is lovely! Service was iffy at first, but got better! This was our 2nd visit and we tried their food this time- The lobster lettuce wraps pleasantly surprised us with the amount of lobster inside- especially for the $8 happy hour deal. The pretzel bites they brought were amazing! Fish and chips were good- but we’ll try something different next time. Definitely will be returning :)

The best part about coming here for brunch is the $5 champagne bottles. The food is okay but if you aren’t getting that $5 bottle you’re doing brunch wrong. The food is good for what you get with decent portion sizes. Banana fosters french toast received rave reviews. Disappointed with the waffle fries, not a seasoning in sight. Decent lobster portion on the eggs benedict. Overall, atmosphere was good for a Sunday and our waitress was very friendly.

Excellent food. Short, concise menu that has enough to satisfy, but not so much its complicated. Monica was my bartender. She was nice, very efficient, and best of all attentive. She was the only bartender, but was able to service the entire bar without losing track of who ordered what, or who needed service. Very impressive! The only thing I might have changed are the size of the bathroom sinks (very petite), and adding a few more TVs. Overall, excellent place, and I'm glad I stopped by!

the place was nice our Greeter was pleasant but didn’t ask how we wanted our burger cooked, it was a to go order and soda was on the house while we waited. I left a nice tip and the order came out in a timely fashion then the bag handle broke right away. Once at the car checking all the food we seemed to miss the tomato bisque with our grilled cheese sandwich. so we went back to get the soup only to find that the tomato bisque came in a container the size of a takeout ranch dressing or ketchup container! I mean tiny !!! and all that for $16.00 I don’t think so … oh i am sorry it dose come with fries .

The food was very good, although I was expecting a larger portion of tomato bisque for the "grilled cheese and tomato bisque" option (it might have said that the bisque was only there for dipping the sandwich, but I honestly didn't read the description). My husband loved the ravioli. Service was slightly below average. We did not receive water upon arriving, needing to request it. I needed to request a high chair more than once. And a little thought could have been put into needing a sauce container when I needed to take the grilled cheese and tomato bisque home. Not bad service, but not great. The atmosphere is more like a bar than a restaurant, but it wasn't too loud for our small children or table conversation.

So there I was, about two weeks ago, at the Brass Rabbit, and let me tell you, it's not your average watering hole. The atmosphere? Absolutely hopping! And speaking of hopping, wait till you hear about the decor. The waitress was super nice, could give lessons in hospitality. She had us feeling like regulars from the moment we walked in. Sitting there waiting for my meal, my eyes wandered to the ceiling above the bar. At first, I thought, "Wow, such intricate designs!" But a closer look revealed it was a bunch of rabbits in a rather, uh, festive conga line. I mean, if you're going to go with a theme, why not hop all the way? Food-wise, we're talking seriously good grub. Everything tasted great. As for those ceiling rabbits, they really set the mood--lively and a little naughty. It's not every day you dine under a canopy of bunny love. It makes you wonder about the stories those walls could tell if they weren't too busy blushing. In conclusion, Brass Rabbit Pub delivers laughs, good times, and great food all under one roof. If you haven't been, hop on over. You'll come for the food and drinks but stay for the acrobatic rabbits. Five stars from me--this place is as fun as it is unique!

Warm beer and mediocre food. Some may consider this to be the quintessential pub experience. For us, it was a depressing evening. The high point was the fast and friendly service. The low point was everything else. We had two appetizers: the baratta and their pretzels with cheese dip. The baratta was OK. The pretzels were underbaked and raw in the middle. The dip was soupy and tasteless. Their chicken sandwich was soggy, their Caesar salad was a bowl of lettuce with too much dressing, and the crab lettuce wrap was just not good. Regrettably, my beers were served warm, perhaps in an attempt to recreate the 'authentic' pub experience. To add to our disappointment, my wife's old fashion was predominantly simple syrup, a far cry from the balanced cocktail she was expecting. This could be a nice place to meet with friends to chat. However, if you want anything to eat or drink then consider any of the other nearby restaurants.

Grilled Cheese & Tomato Bisque menu price $16, has bacon and tomato inside and with choice of fries The tomato bisque is in a literal 2.5ml side sauce cup for the grilled cheese. When I ordered this sandwich I expected the tomato bisque to be a bowl of bisque, at the very least a cup. The bisque came in the same size ramekin as the ranch and ketchup. I placed a To Go order with three entrees and an appetizer, when I got in the car I checked my bag and didn't see a cup or bowl of tomato soup. When I went back in and told the server the tomato soup was forgotten, he came back from the kitchen with just two little ramekins. Once I got home I did see one single 2.5ml ramekin of bisque in the box, so technically it was not forgotten. However, after going back in and receiving two more small ramekins, I got about 7.5ml of bisque. ( if I'm not mistaken there is about 100ml in 1/2 a cup.) Mini Eastern Shore Crab Cakes appetizer $19 for 3, we tried them, and did not eat them. The cheddar burger was good, nice flavor, regular garden set, I was not asked on the cook of the burger and came medium well. A normal good bar burger. Roasted chicken entree $28 with rice, mushrooms cauliflower, sun dried tomato gravy, was great, nice portion. Honestly the sun dried tomato gravy in the rice tasted so similar to the bisque, it does leave me wondering if it is the same sauce!

Came here with for brunch with some friends on a Saturday morning around 11. It was pretty empty at first, but started to fill up so the hour went on, so I would probably make a reservation just in case. The server was very nice and came around multiple times to see if we needed anything. It's not the fanciest place, so if you're looking for something with more brunch vibes this probably wouldn't be a good spot. Most of the seating is at high tops and is pretty casual. The food was very good, but theres definitely some better brunch places in the area. I got an egg white omelette and liked it. They do not have a coffee or espresso menu. One of my friends wanted an iced coffee, so our waitress offered to chill hot coffee for her. It was not good, but was nice of her to do so! This is a good spot if you're looking to drink, but was probably not the best pick for our brunch. I would come back to try their drinks!

I'm currently in Arlington for work and in a very unique opportunity to check all these different bars around town. This time out brought us to the Brass Bunny, and initially we were drawn to them because from the outside looking in, it was a very modern, just overall cool place to hang out. Once inside it did not disappoint, the decor was on point, there was good music playing and a variety of tvs playing multiple things for side entertainment in between conversations. But not so many tvs that makes it feel like a sports bar. With all of that being said, the star of the show has to to be the apps, my friend I decided to share some apps. For starters we got the Philly cheese bites, and we were so impressed with how tasty they were we got another app to share. And this was one of those experiences you have and think things couldn't get any better....* Coconut shrimp enters the chat* They were phenomenal and I would gladly order them 100x again no questions asked. Good drinks, Great food, Chill atmosphere . A must visit if you are in the area.

Awesome drinks, open late-ish, have a small outdoor patio, happy hour M-F 3-6p, and not a bad spot for football/sports. They changed the tv for us which was nice, some places won't do that if you're looking for a specific game. Brunch: French toast bites are a must order Carrot cake pancakes are as good as they look A flight of infused vodka - why not? (They'd all be good as cocktails) Tasty wings The burgers and fries are really good, too

Absolutely delicious drinks! The wait time was a little bit long, but the drinks were delicious! Me and several friends went, and everyone loved the drinks they ordered. We also got fries which were delicious, and there was ample seating. Would love to go back and try more drinks!

I came here for happy hour (Mon-Fri 3-6pm) on a weekday. They have some great happy hour deals ($8 martinis, $8 apps/lettuce wraps and $5 drafts). The restaurant is dark, and looks nicer than the typical pub. We ordered the expresso martini and wings (old bay). The expresso martini was pretty good, more expresso than I'm used to. The wings were good, not the best and I wish there was more old bay on it. Service was great as our server was attentive and friendly. A great spot for happy hour!

As I left Massage Envy, I walked past here just as HH started. Decided to walk in and see what the place was like I was the lone person at the bar a little bit after 3pm on a Wednesday. Bar was clean, sparkly, nice ambience I got a dirty martini. Which also came with a little bit in a side cup. Almost like 2 drinks for 1 I also had the cheesesteak egg rolls. All was good. Bartendar was super nice. Street parking or there is a garage right next door

Came by here for a quick drink. This was my second time at the restaurant. Service was super friendly and attentive. The decor is elegant with a black and white theme, dim lighting, large screen tv's in picture frames, and a classy menu. I ordered the crimson 'n clover cocktail which I found to be good. I was a bit reluctant to order another cocktail just because the price and I didn't feel too strongly about the other options. Overall, not a bad option in the Clarendon neighborhood. Personally, I think it's a bit on the pricier side but I that comes with the classy theme of the restaurant. Still likely a good spot for their happy hour menu.

Came here for happy hour on a weekday, and definitely feel like we got a worth it deal! The espresso martini tasted great, and came with extra glass on the side. For food, we ordered the shrimp lettuce wraps, beer cheese pretzels, and mild wings. Everything was decent, and I would say the shrimp was very tender but the slaw was a bit one note, without any acidity and I wouldn't taste the pineapple in t Service was a bit hectic as they kept running back to repeat our order, but I would come back during normal hours to try other items on their menu!

A few updates to this review: 1. Apps and martinis at happy hour are now $10, and also I'm not sure the last time they changed the menu on martinis, so you have 5 options there. 2. The service feels all over the place. I ordered the martini and got that, but then my original bartender never came back over to see if I wanted a 2nd drink. By the time I had finished my food another person finally checked on me, but I was good at that point. 3. The quality of the crab lettuce wrap has gone down a bit since I first had it after they replaced the lobster one. They now give you the crab out of the wrap and you fill your own wrap, and on top of that the crab just doesn't taste all that appealing. Still has its charm, and the food is good overall.

Came here on Sunday for the NFL game during their brunch hours and we were able to partake in their $5 champagne bottles which 2 certainly did the trick for us! When we first walked in we loved how elegant and intimate it looked, the dark vibe with the gold definitely made it seem like you stepped into an expensive social club. We were first seated in the back of the pub instead of the bar despite us wearing our jerseys and after about 5 minutes of waiting for server to help us we asked if we could move to the bar for the game. She allowed us to move and we sat ourselves at the bar and started ordering our drinks and food. Our bartender had such great energy, she made us laugh and took great care of us. I happened to win an Instagram giveaway here a few months ago so I was able to use my $20 gift card and paid a little under $30 for the actual meal. The food - 1000000/10 it was AMAZING! The French toast bites tasted like funnel cake and the cheese on the pub fries was chefs kiss. I loved the decorations (take a look at the ceiling by the bar when you go ;)) and the bathrooms were also beautiful and bright. I can't wait to come back.

Enjoyed an after work happy hour at Brass Rabbit Pub while on a work trip -- we are not locals. The staff were accommodating to our gluten allergy and had a great draft list. The wings were exactly what we needed -- not overly fancy but flavorful. We felt the music clashed a bit with the ambiance of the place -- didn't really feel like a pub. Would recommend to folks traveling into town looking for a quick happy hour spot.

I met a small group of friends here on a Friday evening around 7 - we were looking for a new spot to try in Arlington and found this one! This is much nicer than the average pub - it has a long granite/stone bar, comfy lounge chairs for seating, and dimly lit high top tables. Definitely a nice bar for date night; it is not the casual vibe that one might expect for a bar in this area. Our server was quick and friendly; she made some good recommendations on the cocktails and appetizers to try. Appreciate the solid service throughout the evening. The drinks were pricey but good - we got a variety of drinks ranging from espresso martinis to standard rails to margaritas. Everyone reported back that the drinks were tasty and well made (albeit a little pricier compared to other bars in that area). They provide each table with small bowls of popcorn to snack on which is fantastic (popcorn is one of my favorite snacks!). Our group thought that the cauliflower buffalo wings we ordered were good (I didn't try them). Overall, a nice spot to try and one I could see myself returning to for a fancier night out. The dimly lit and plush environment definitely makes this feel like a grown and mature bar.

Brass Rabbit is a cute pub where you can grab a drink or a meal. I went for after work drinks with a friend. The bartender advised us on which drinks were good. We both had the Conejo cocktail. It was nice! The cocktail was citrus-y but not too sweet. We split the sweet potato fritters and lamb meatballs. We really enjoyed the appetizers. The food was flavorful. The only reason I docked a star was because the bathrooms were really dirty. Everything else about the experience was great!

Came here on a Saturday night to catch up with a friend. Walked by a decent amount but first time trying it out and was not disappointed. It was a very fun vibe inside with TVs mounted to most walls which makes it a good venue to catch a game. The food itself was alright. They gave us a free garlic bread bite to start which was delicious and a good way to start off the meal. We started with the sweet potato fritters that were... good but $11 for 4 was pricier than we would've liked. The entrees (burger, linguine and clams, and steak salad) were all just alright. Nothing bad but also nothing to write home about. The steak in the salad though wasn't really a steak. It wasn't bad, chunks of beef that went with the salad but just don't expect a traditional steak sliced, and placed on top. Overall will probably be back for happy hour and/or game night. Not sure if I'd eat dinner here again, maybe only if too lazy to go somewhere else.

This fun restaurant and bar in Clarendon is a fun spot to hangout on either a weeknight or weekend. The large bar provides ample space to serve many customers at once. Our only complaint was that the bartenders were not attentive to customers with empty glasses. We would've ordered more drinks, but it seemed like we could never get their attention. Overall, I would come here again.

Let me say this, the ambiance the music the decor were it. I went with my sister 2 days ago and arrived met the waiters and got a drink. Within a span of 10 Mins two guys came up to us and just started talking. At first, we were nice but we quickly realized they were already drunk. After politely declining they keep coming back. And one kept touching me after u asked him to leave. MIND you the whole time the bartender Jacob was there witnessing the whole thing. Never intervened until we literally told him to. I get you know them and they may be regulars but at the expense of making other patrons uncomfortable is not okay. We did get food as well but it was cold af. I would go back for happy hour but nothing else.

I went to Brass Rabbit on a Saturday for brunch. It's a good spot for day drinking or for a party vibe type of brunch. My girlfriends and I (group of 6) made reservations and had a great table near the window. This is noteworthy because a lot of the bar/restaurant feels dark. There were definitely some highlights: -The overall rabbit theme. Super cute! -$5 bottles of champagne (bottom shelf - but a great deal) -Shakshuka - delicious dish perfect for sharing -Carrot cake pancakes Everything else was just OK... basic brunch/lunch items that will fill you up if you're hungry Overall I liked this place. It was my first visit (RIP to the old Bracket Room) I'm planning to return for happy hour or in the spring/summer when I can enjoy the front patio.

Came here during the week day via Uber. If your not from the area street parking is sparse, however there's usually garage parking near by. As for me I prefer not to drive. The restaurant wasn't busy when I arrived and I was able to get a comfortable spot at the bar. The inside of the pub looked trendy and smelled clean, unlike some other bars that smell like left over beer. I ordered a burger and Ruben. The burger was on spot, had the right temperature, and was filling. The Ruben on the other hand was smaller than I thought it would be, I would suggest going with the burger if your hungry since there's not to much difference in price and the burger is meatier IMO. No complaints about the service. All the servers were professional and around to attend to me when I needed something.

Decided to try Brass Rabbit today because a friend has been recommending it. The bar was pretty busy, but my friend and I were seated right away at a table. We were told it was happy hour, which included $8 appetizers and lettuce wraps , as well as $8 martinis. I'm not a vodka drinker , but got the Cucumber martini since it was the only non-vodka option. It was STRONG, but good, especially for the price. We also got the wings, which the host said she enjoyed grilled (that option isn't on the menu, so make sure to ask). The wings could have used a little more seasoning but they were grilled to perfection! I ordered another batch of wings to-go, and those were much more flavorful and again, grilled perfectly! We both got burgers, which were ok. I would have liked a little more flavor there as well, but it wasn't terrible. I asked for onions on the side and that did the trick for me. The decor in the restaurant was super cute and unique. Rabbits everywhere! The TVs on the wall were also framed, which I loved! I'd definitely visit again for happy hour!

Went on a Tuesday to check out their Tuesday HH. Small bites and appetizers are $8 until 6p and after 6p, wine/bubbly is $3. The wings were good and the pretzels bites were very tasty! The bartenders were super cool. Best thing of all, is that my bill after drinks and food was $22. WIN!

No sass for the brass. This Clarendon brunch spot was just as advertised. They had a cute rabbit theme going on, arguably to a fault, but considering the number of children I'll let it slide. This family friendly restaurant didn't have the most expansive menu, but what it lacked in menu it made up for in TV screens. If you want to watch the match and take your kids out for breaky this is the spot. We tried two of their egg dishes and they were just on par with our expectations. The eggs were well cooked and the side of potatoes were crispy and well seasoned. The service was quick and we got our food and coffee within 15 minutes of us sitting down. I would definitely go back in a pinch. Overall, this place may have been a family hub, but that didn't lower their food quality or service. If you need an easy no frills brunch spot this is a great option.

Gastro pub with a large menu I came here with a party of 4 for dinner, and we all really enjoyed our food. I got the chicken sandwich and it was delicious The service was a totally different story. Our server was very brash/rude, and it took an incredibly long time to get our check

Food and service were phenomenal! Went with parents and out of town friend for dinner on Friday. Able to schedule a reservation the same afternoon. We all agreed the sweet potato fritters app was the best dish of the night. Also enjoyed the burrata app. For entrees, the burrata ravioli (sensing a theme?) and the salmon salad were excellent. Friendly, attentive waiter (Michael) struck the perfect balance of banter and respect. 10/10 would recommend.

Food, service, and ambiance were great. Our waiter went above and beyond to cater to some of our guests needs. Fish and chips, steak and cheese rolls, lamb burger, and chicken wings were delicious. All the cocktails were amazing and I would definitely go back.

The only reason I would hesitate to write this review is to try to keep this place a secret because it's that good! My favorite brunch spot in the DMV by far. When I go to brunch I look for 4 key pillars: food, drinks, price, ambiance/service. Before discovering Brass Rabbit I would have said you couldn't have all 4, but I was graciously proven wrong. The food is always on point. I recommend the shakshouka- heads up it's a big portion! Probably meant to be shared. The drinks are abundantly flowing, and the staff goes above and beyond. Special shout-out to Diana, Blair and Desiree. This place is so lucky to have you! They made me feel so special on my birthday!

Came here to catch up with a friend and got a sparkling rosé and a steak salad. Service was great and drink was good but I wasn't a fan of the steak in the salad. I saw another photo of a steak salad here which looked good so I ordered it but the beef in the salad I got was almost shaped like a kabob and it felt more like a trimming along the side with a bit more of fat as opposed to more meat. Also I should've asked for dressing on the side because it was dressed slightly heavier than I usually like but that's also on me, I don't know why I forgot to ask. I did remember to change the dressing from ranch to house though because I'm not a fan of ranch so the typical steak salad might look slightly different. The place was good but I'd probably come back more for drinks than food.

"I had an absolutely appalling experience at Brass Rabbit Bar. Not only was the service incredibly slow, but the staff, including the owner, were shockingly rude and dismissive. Despite being a paying customer, I was treated with disdain and disrespect from the moment I walked in. It's clear that customer satisfaction is not a priority at this establishment. Save yourself the frustration and go elsewhere for a drink where you'll be treated like a valued patron, not an inconvenience. They think it is okay to call the patrons they don't like faggot. Super racist. This place needs to shut down!

The Brass Rabbit opening in March 2022 and is just off Clarendon Boulevard on Garfield St (Just around the corner from Circa). Parking is a huge challenge in this area and you may want to just suck it up and pay to park in one of the many underground garages. We arrived on a college football Saturday 7ish, and the host was very helpful in finding us a table. One thing that strikes you is the volume of the place; loud, loud and louder! Decor is all black, but we did not find that off-putting. A local hipster crowd in the bar area, but a little older than one might expect. Our server (Keith) was very friendly, helpful and seemed to be happy to be there. The Brass Rabbit has a serious commitment to preparing craft cocktails. The martinis, or in our case a Cosmopolitan, are served just a little over half full but are accompanied with a small carafe of the drink in a small bowl in a bed of ice (see picture). Having never seen this before we were struck that this is a nice touch. The drink menu includes a Bramble, which is highly unusual and one of my favorites. It was a nice drink served with fresh raspberries and blackberries. I think they should consider serving the drink with creme de mure (French blackberry liqueur), which is the more traditional recipe. But that is my personal preference. Cocktails arrived with complementary serving of pretzel bites, which have a hint of garlic and maybe fried with truffle oil (my guess). Another nice touch by The Brass Rabbit! We started with the Buffalo Cauliflower which comes lightly battered and fried with a blue cheese aioli; this is a huge offering and wonderful. Whipped Feta was also a great starter, served with cucumber slices and crostini. It did not have a lot of body (read it was kinda liquidy) but still a solid choice. I ate two-thirds of the cauliflower appetizer and was stuffed. We also tried the salmon filet and that was perfectly prepared. We will return to the Brass Rabbit but probably not during football frivolity; tooooo deafening. I encourage you to give The Brass Rabbit a try!

Stopped by during happy hour on Wednesday afternoon after looking up new bars in the area. As soon as I sat down, I was excited to hear that their happy hour was for lettuce wraps and martinis. $8 MARTINIS? YES, I'M SCREAMING. And no, they're not using well drinks - it's straight up Titos. I had two dirty martinis while waiting around and had a good conversation with Devin. She's an absolute doll (and on an unrelated note, a mushroom connoisseur), and had a smile to brighten up a rather dark interior (the whole place is decorated with black tiles). From what I understand, all their bartenders are seasoned craft bartenders - they'll make you whatever you want. Don't be shy and ask them to whip you up a surprise! I have no idea why it's called Public House - I'm from NYC where that translates to sticky floors and nasty well drinks with flat mixers. This is not your regular public house. It's a charming, hipster neighborhood hangout with more to offer than most in terms of fantastic concoctions and a pretty good menu that ranges from healthy to "perfect for hangovers." I'm also placing this in the "spot for small events" like retirement parties or birthdays category. Thanks for your hospitality. I certainly will be back.

Nice drink selection and ambiance. The martinis come with a little refill which is nice for the price. The cucumber gin martini is really tasty

We were looking for new restaurants to try in Arlington and found this through Yelp. We made reservations for 8 pm by calling ahead and good thing because the restaurant was packed on a Friday evening. We arrived at 8 pm, but since the table wasn't ready we sat at the bar for a bit to wait. The hostess let us know our first round would be complimentary due to the wait, which was a nice gesture. We ordered our drinks (espresso martini and rabbit-hole fashioned), but unfortunately that message was not communicated to the bartender/server so we ended up paying for them anyway. We eventually sat at our table and ordered a few different apps and entrees. We ordered the tuna ($16), chicken ($12), and shrimp ($14) lettuce wraps, sweet potato fritters ($10), lobster sliders ($26) and lamb burger ($18). We thought the lobster sliders had too much coleslaw and definitely not enough lobster for $26. Food-wise, I would recommend coming for their HH (3-6 pm) when their lettuce wraps are only $8. We thought the food and service were a tad slow (we never received water until halfway through), but the ambiance is nice and the bar was beautiful. The drinks we ordered were delicious and might come back for those.

We came in just for a Saturday afternoon cocktail -- the bar was packed at 4:30! We got lucky and got two seats at the end of the bar after two women left. Very comfortable bar stools -- with both a rail for your feet on the stool, and a nice brass bar foot rail. (It's a pet peeve of mine when a bar does not consider foot comfort.) Bartender crafted a fantastic Old-Fashioned for me. Lots of big screen for watching sports (love the frames around the screens -- a thoughtful touch). Humping rabbits on the ceiling are fun too!

Had a couple glasses of pinot noir with one of my friends, shared some apps and both got delicious entrées. - Lamb meatballs : 10/10 the sauce was sooooo good too, we dipped our bread in there too - Whipped feta: 10/10 delish and light, one of my favourites came with bread & cucumbers - Ceasar salad: 10/10 HUGE portion - Roasted chicken: 10/10 yummy sauce, love the rainbow carrots paired with and cooked perfectly - steak and potatoes:10/10 guys, so good. It wasn't overcooked and the potatoes were SOOOOOOOO tasty - seared tuna: 10/10 great portion and really liked the avocado sauce it was on Overall such a cute place and I'd definitely come back again. - Insta @SpicyAivy

We came here on a whim and could not be more impressed with Brass Rabbit! The drinks are delicious, and the service was impeccable. The cosmo had me feeling like an extra on Sex In The City and my boyfriend wouldn't stop raving about his Cucumber martini! We will be back!!

We didn't know what to expect, but the decor and ambiance was awesome. What turned "one drink" into five hours was Monika and Kris - they were awesome! Engaging, funny, attentive, but most importantly, they know how to read a room and make sure everyone is taken care of and having fun. First time in a long time, I enjoyed going to a "DC" bar.

Been here multiple times and the experience here is always great! Drinks are made well and fair priced for the area. Food has a wide variety to cover most cravings and they seem to strive to provide flavorful meals. Waiters/bartenders provide fast service and are always walking around and checking on me. The ambiance here is unlike any other bars in the area and gives it a proper pub feel and also being family friendly. They have multiple TV's to catch games as well. Be sure to check them out!

The service here was good and there are a lot of interesting menu options. I went with the Buffalo Fish sandwich which I liked a lot. The portion size was large and I personally couldn't finish all the food. The fries were well seasoned. I would recommend checking them out if you are in the area.

I have been wanting to try this place for a while and was surprised to see it so busy on a Friday night- always like to see local places succeed. We sat down and enjoyed the mini toast bread things. We ordered drinks, including the espresso martini, the dirty martini, and the paloma. We loved that their martinis were served with extra on the side so you could refill the glass. The service was a little bit all over the place- one main waitress, one lady running drinks, and another lady helping the table. At times it made it confusing on who to order what from and we did lose a diet coke in translation. We did order some mains like the fish and chips, club sandwich, burger, and a salad. Portion size was large for the $ so that was definitely nice. The club was made with hand shaved turkey which was a nice touch, and we loved the burger. We would pass on the fish and chips- while it was two large chunks, the taste just was meh. I look forward to coming back and trying more items here!

Solid happy hour menu, and great selection of beers. I have not come here outside of HH, but generally I don't have a need to either.

Was not good at all ! Not freshly mad. The chicken dish I could not cut though! The steak and fries was not good either! The steak was a cheap cut and almost un eatable! Fries were good ... drinks also were good .
