Guinness, Irish grub & live music in a festive, authentic pub
"This longtime Irish institution near Union Station (a big hit on Saint Patrick’s Day) opens at 7 a.m. on weekdays and 8 a.m. on weekends." - Missy Frederick
"This family-run Irish pub near Union Station has been in business since 1974 and still serves perfect pours of Guinness. The iconic bar also boasts a proprietary Irish whiskey that goes down smooth, along with about 100 other Irish whiskeys to sample. Nightly live Irish music is back on the schedule, and traditional dishes like corned beef and cabbage, fish and chips, and shepherd’s pie fill out the menu." - Tierney Plumb, Travis Mitchell
"Opened in 1974, the Dubliner is the patriarch of D.C.’s Irish bar community and celebrates a major 50-year milestone this year. Daily Irish whiskey tastings and live music starting Monday, March 11 commemorates the occasion, and its epic Saint Patrick’s Day party prices morning Guinness pours by its age (they’re 50 cents this year from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m.). There’s also live music on two stages all day, with an Irish menu starting at 11 a.m. The reliable hangout also sports a recently enclosed sidewalk cafe." - Tierney Plumb
"One of D.C.‘s most famous and longstanding Irish bars, the Dubliner is the dean of the city’s pub scene. Even Barack Obama has stopped by on Saint Patrick’s Day. The restaurant is open for both indoor and outdoor dining. —M.F." - Tierney Plumb
"The Dubliner is a 46-year-old essential Irish pub located near Union Station. It has reopened, featuring a newly expanded patio and is currently the only D.C. bar pouring Guinness Wide Mouth White Ale, a new brew from Open Gate Brewery in Maryland." - Adele Chapin
