"Decades-old area chain Silver Diner opened its first D.C. proper outpost right across from Nationals Park in 2022. The two-level Navy Yard space boasts the brand’s first bonafide bar called Silver Social. The upstairs hangout sports an outdoor terrace looking out at the baseball stadium, which means diners can get a sense of game-day action without buying an MLB ticket." - Tierney Plumb
"With flexible hours and wide-ranging menus, diners are generally good places to take children. This Rockville-based institution, around since 1989, opened its first D.C. location in fall 2022 across from Nationals Park. The local chain has a kids’ menu of nutrition-focused classics, taste-tested by kids. Tykes can collect a series of “Kids Club” buttons, and get free birthday mains and shakes. Dine-in or order here for pickup and delivery." - Emily Venezky
"Every now and then, you just want that highway diner-style breakfast, without having to find one on the side of the road somewhere outside town. Enter Silver Diner, the 21st-century version of the classic American diner based out of Rockville, Maryland. We like stopping by the Navy Yard location before and after Nats or DC United games when all you can think about is something fried and filling—and fast. With dozens of Silver Diners in the DMV and counting, an outpost is probably close. To truly capture that elusive savory-sweet balance, go with the french toast drizzled with salted caramel and powdered sugar." - mekita rivas, omnia saed, tristiana hinton
