"A destination for pitchers and beer pong, as well as Buffalo wings paired with game day watch parties, this Capitol Hill bar features a lively patio that stays open late. From $4 “Mystery Beer” Mondays to taco Tuesdays to half-priced wing Wednesdays and Fireball Fridays, there is always a reason to eat and drink on the cheap here." - Tim Ebner

"Blocks from the U.S. Capitol, the NFL Washington Commanders’s new managing partner Josh Harris was spotted at Union Pub with his son on New Year’s Eve.

The Capitol Hill watering hole tracked the amount of drinks sold all night, posting updates to X and handing out free yellow-colored shots to everyone still camping out at the bar at 10:45 p.m." - Tierney Plumb
