"While technically not a restaurant, Metrobar screams fun. Where else in the city can you eat, drink, and party inside a renovated Metro car? No need to worry about any delay here; parked permanently near the Rhode Island Ave station, this formerly functioning 5000-series Metro railcar is always raring to go. With karaoke, themed movie nights, color-coded cocktail menu for Metro lines, daily food trucks, and guest DJs, it’s no surprise that this spot is a Rammys finalist for Best Bar of the year." - Claudia Rosenbaum
"RB, a food photographer and restaurant events manager in Washington, D.C., and their partner prefer low-key date nights involving home-cooked meals and quality time on their rooftop, rather than traditional restaurant outings." - Bettina Makalintal
"Situated in a former Metrorail car, the unique outpost offers hot cocktail and Commanders bourbon specials all day, in addition to beer buckets and nosh from Kush Food Truck." - Vinciane Ngomsi
"Weekly bingo with mocktails and a hot cocoa karaoke night in collaboration with Zero Proof Nation." - Emily Venezky
"This transport-inspired outdoor bar in Northeast continues its tradition of hosting an afternoon celebration for the holiday. On December 18, the bar will have a young professionals DCJCC event with a s’mores bar and fire pits, specialty drinks, Israeli dance music, candle lighting, sufganiyot, quiet spaces for crafts and dreidel playing, and a best ugly Hanukkah sweater/outfit contest. Tickets are $8 in advance and $10 at the door." - Evan Caplan
