DC's New Restaurant Openings - Washington DC - The Infatuation

"Henceforth is a brewery and wine bar serving IPAs, cream ales, Irish reds, and natural wines. Located inside the old H Street Country Club space, the team is building out rooftop seating for the summer. Expect dishes like braised beef cheek sandwiches, Old Bay chicken wings, and a blood orange brûlée." - omnia saed

D.C.’s Polished New Brewery Stands Out With a Rare English Ale — And Much More | Eater DC

"A recently opened H Street NE brewpub aims to upend the usual craft-beer warehouse model by offering a warm, midcentury-modern space with low music, no TVs, and comfortable couch nooks and dining tables instead of picnic benches and metal stools. The on-site brewery, run by an award-winning head brewer, balances classic and hard-to-find styles—an English pale ale (ESB) is a noted standout—and launched with a nine-beer lineup (pints $9, halves $5) from a flexible 1,000-barrel production facility that plans to add a pilsner and a gose. Food comes from a real kitchen led by Walfer Hernandez (formerly of Barrel), with elevated pub fare highlights including Old Bay–dusty honey-glazed fried wings and a tender braised beef cheek sandwich with lemon aioli and pickled red onion. A curated wine program is overseen by veteran bartender Monica Lee, and the founders emphasize both brewing quality and a desire to help rejuvenate the surrounding community. The brewpub opened in May at 1335 H Street NE and operates with staggered first- and second-floor hours throughout the week; no reservations are taken." - Travis Mitchell

During a time when places are shutting down along H Street NE, it's refreshing to see a brewery move into such an iconic corner space. Right next to the historic Atlas Theatre, Henceforth seems small when you first walk in. The bar is stunning and there's seating around it, in front, and behind. The rest of the bottom floor is the actual brewery. Walk up the stairs and you'll be impressed by a front room and a very spacious back room. The design is welcoming. It's definitely a cozy gathering place and great for groups! The staff are passionate and know the menu well. There's a light food menu and of course beer. They sell what they brew from stouts to IPAs. Candidly, I'm not a beer guy outside of sour ale (which they don't have), but their wine list is impressive. I enjoyed my Riesling. I recommend Henceforth as your new community gathering place!

Really glad to see this place open. It’s a proper gathering place. The beer & wine offerings are smart, the food is tasty (I tried the sliders and the fries) and the menu is varied but not overwhelming. I personally can’t get over the volume level of the music. You can hear yourself think and feel comfortable talking —or not talking—with friends or “strangers”.

Stopped in on a Monday to this little spot. Being immediately greeted by living room furniture in the entrance is always a welcoming feel to a pub. The downstairs area was a fine spot to enjoy their Alley Beer cream ale and Rising Roads Irish red ale. Checked out the upstairs area, which was empty, but looked like a good place for a hang. Kitchen was closed for the day, so that was a bummer. Zero stickers.

What a fun little spot in the neighborhood! Beautiful atmosphere, comfortable seating and friendly staff. The food was amazing! I was pleasantly surprised by how many families came in while we were dining with our little one. Definitely recommend!

Everything was excellent. Nice bar space with friendly staff. I had the chicken sandwich with fries and the Belgian wit, hazy ipa and Belgian dubbel. All the beer was delicious. Food was good. When we were there the upstairs wasn’t open so looking forward to coming back and seeing the wine bar space.

I’ve now been here twice, having both food and drinks and I can’t express how great this place is. The variety of drinks is incredible and the food is very, very well done. The ambiance is comfortable and sleek. The real star of the show is the staff, who are friendly, attentive, and helpful (especially Dana and Glenn). This is easily once of my favorite spots in D.C.

Really good food-got the braised short ribs, sliders, and fries. Loved all of it. Good vibe inside. Great wine list. Will definitely be back.

Great food, great beer, great vibes. We went with a large group and thoroughly enjoyed every aspect. The servers were friendly and well versed in the unique beer and wine list to help recommend something for every taste. The food was fantastic - we tried the brunch menu on a Sunday afternoon, including charred asparagus, steak with lobster mornay and poached eggs, and the waffle (the best waffle I’ve had!). Each had thoughtful touches, were well cooked, and were unique tastes that will bring us back. We stayed long enough to sample the dinner menu, and the burger was highly flavorful and tender, with thick cut crispy fries. As Henceforth, has only been only a few weeks, can’t wait to see what’s next as they continue to expand the menu!

The space is an extension of your living room. I was taken back by how welcoming the space is. They have 3 bars and a large patio on the top floor. We had sliders and Austrian red wine which we really enjoyed. Beer is brewed in-house and was also great. The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. Music is not pounding, so you can easily have a conversation.

Met a friend here on Wednesday night, and stumbled onto Trivia night (which is always on Wednesday upstairs). There is also seating downstairs (street level) at the bar and a few tables from what I can remember! It is seating on your own and it gets packed fairly quickly. There is a pretty decent wine list, to include glass and also whole bottles. The Riesling was good-- definitely not the sweetest I've had. There's also a beer list for things on draft if you want beer instead of wine, otherwise no cocktails! There are non-alcoholic options as well. There is a small menu for food-- appetizers, small bites or a few entrees I believe. I tried the fries and they were great! Crispy on the outside and fluffy in the middle (they are more like wedges). Looking forward to coming here again!

This place gets rave reviews but I'm not sure why. I'm not a fan of H Street in general as I feel it had its hey day a few years ago and it was pretty short lived at that. Since I'm within walking distance of Henceforth I decided to check it out since a couple of people I know raved about it. The vibe is meh. There is a small bar on the first floor and a larger bar and section on the second floor. You actually have to walk upstairs to use the restroom which is at the top of a long flight of stairs. The West Coast IPA I had was fine and one of the red wines I had wasn't good. The bar service was great so no issues there. I can't say I'd put this on my list as a place I'd like to return to. I'm glad I checked it out, but it just wasn't for me. To each their own.

Clean, inviting, family-friendly atmosphere with delicious bites. My only advice is to add window blinds, as the sun beams directly into patrons' faces, causing glare and making it hard to enjoy a meal--especially when it's reflecting off phones and other surfaces. A simple fix that would make a big difference! Braised Short Ribs: 9/10. The ribs were moist and paired great with the turnip puree. Wish it had a little more sauce on it. Roasted Cauliflower: 10/10. This had an excellent smokey char. Triple Fried Fat Fries: 10/10. These are sooo good! Burger: 9/10. Solid cheeseburger it was just missing ketchup & mustard.

10/10. This is a three level bar that includes two beer bars, a wine bar, and a rooftop. Beautiful mid century modern interior design. The staff were super friendly and knowledgeable. They don't sell beer to go yet but everything we tried on draft was great. We ordered the waffles and the crispy potato, little sweet and savory to balance out.

Henceforth is a great new addition to H Street - a large, multi-level bar with plenty of fun seating options. I came for trivia night with a friend and had an absolute blast. Despite it being very busy, the service was attentive and prompt. I had a wonderful orange wine off their wine list and a burger with fries. The fries were especially delicious! I can't wait to come back.

What an oasis on H street! The vibes are that of hanging out at your rich friends house. The staff are super friendly and knowledgeable, they know their stuff! The beer was great and brewed in house. The menu is small but covers the bases and is expanding I am told. It's a great place on an H street day to stop in for a calm cool place to relax with friends. Upstairs is spacious!

Already loved Henceforth for its amazing beer and atmosphere and the food lives up to both! We had the Triple Fried Fat Fries with aioli verde, buffalo and honey old bay wings, Spicy Chicken sandwich, and Braised Short Rib. The roasted garlic Swiss chard and turnip purée with the short rib is one of the best bites I've had this year! The staff were all very attentive and were really hustling too!

A must visit kind of place in DC. Just stepping into this place brings up the spirits! Knowledgeable staff who treat guests with care and kindness. The home brew is incredible and wine list so extensive. It's great to see this wonderful addition in DC.
