BBC AMERICAFebruary 1, 2018Jukebox? Check. Cheap? Check. Games? Triple check. Walking down the steps of Rocket Bar is like walking into the games room of your dreams, complete with dart boards to get your game on!
Sunny ChangJune 9, 2012You can order food to be delivered. There are enough pool tables around. And even a jukebox machine where you can pay to listen to your favorite songs to be played.
Gabriel HayesDecember 5, 2015Darts, Pool, Big Buck Hunter HD, Lots of TVs and a very good beer selection. What else do you need.
Dana MeyersOctober 19, 2013California Tortilla delivers to Rocket Bar for free (Mon-Thu till 10:30, Fri-Sat till 11:30, Sunday till 10, $10 minimum order).
Joe WinnMarch 21, 2015Learned here I'm terrible at shuffleboard. Plus, it's a dive bar. Blink, and you'll miss the entrance. Surprisingly good martini, however.
Brett MelilloDecember 29, 2014There is usually a wait for the pool tables but they do it in an organized fashion so you don't wait too long.- NightSceneNovember 18, 2010Probably the best billards and gaming bar in Chinatown. The basement feel is a plus, but be warned, it can get a little too packed on weekends if you dont like fighting towards the bar
They let you bring in your own food, which is awesome because Shake Shack is two blocks away!- Feats With FriendsNovember 15, 2012Can you beat the current skeeball record at Rocket Bar on Feats With Friends? Here's a link to the Feat: http://www.featswithfriends.com/feats/27
Ky E.January 20, 2015Cool late night place if you want to play games. Not so great during the day since it's really dark and in the basement. Kind of trashy.
AnaMarch 20, 2010Cool little dive that's mostly hidden next to the Ruby Tuesday in Chinatown. Cheap alcohol, great atmosphere, tons of games. Get there early and grab a booth in the back.- Gabriel HayesDecember 5, 2015Darts cost $2.12. Not a bad deal, particularly since you can play all night.
Samantha MMarch 25, 2012Definitely a chill spot. Music low enough to talk and lots of pool and darts to play!
Patrick CurranJuly 25, 2012There's no kitchen or coffee, but you can order delivery from California Tortilla, and they have Red Bull.
Michael SingletaryAugust 22, 2014Cheap and loud. Good for groups or for listening to the jukebox while downing some shots and cocktails.
Taste and See ™March 22, 2013Yes, it smells like pee, sometimes vom, here. Totally okay, because there's Skee Ball, Ice Hockey and pool tables in Chinatown.
MazdaOctober 27, 2010The folks behind Atomic Billiards and Buffalo Billiards have given sports fans a new place to hang out before games at the Verizon Center. - Washington Post
Jonathan LSeptember 9, 2011Pool tables shuffle board and darts. What more do you want? Well don't serve food though
Ryan PegramOctober 17, 2010Huge place, good crowd, weird green bar with sparkles in the back! Had a fun time here!
Justin CastleJanuary 18, 2012whoever the crazy bitch is that didn't like this place is clearly not a sports fan. this is a great place pre & post games (especially caps)!
ian hallNovember 4, 2010Thumbs down on the decision to shitcan the foosball table in favor of that air-hockey-for-mongoloids "Boomerang" game. I'll never darken the doors of this anus-scented shitdump again!
After a Caps game, this is a good place to hang out while waiting for the crowd at the metro station to thin out a little bit
hate when ppl getting the table n not plyng, theyre talking instead.come on now,we have other ppl tht waiting& wanna play.also respect the table,dont u ever put ur drinks on the table!!
Best on weeknights, especially if you like late nights, lowaikey bars and PBR.
Shanber RoseDecember 4, 2014No food but u can go get food from elsewhere n bring it in... but drinks are good- Audrey AFebruary 15, 2011Always have a great time here! Get here early if you want a chance to play shuffleboard.
This is the sort of place that shows MMA on the TVs. Just FYI.
- ian hallAugust 27, 2010Light up the goddamn foosball table! It's the only legitimate reason for a soul to set foot in this place.
- ian hallMarch 25, 2010Mike B. and Ian H. still undefeated on the shitty "Legend" foosball table in this joint. If you fancy yourself a goer, gimme a shout.
