If Pat "I'm a bartender, not a mixologist" is working the bar pull up a chair. He makes a great drink. And try the house made spicy Ginger ale.

Sit at the bar for quick service and great atmosphere. Great draft beers and specialty cocktails!

When you think of the Chesapeake Bay, you think oysters & blue crabs. The owner of the Chesapeake Room wants you to also think of Senate bean soup, local cheese & even steaks butchered from steers. Read more

The Bitches say: A. A really beautiful space with great cocktails, passionate service, and hearty brunch dishes. The eggs and sausage was just so-so, or else it would have earned an A+. Read more

A workhorse (in a good way). Makes a good drink at the bar, a solid breakfast, a small (by DC standards) dent in your wallet.

Sat in booth near bar. The service was great along with the amazing bison burger.

So, the two most talked about items (bison burger and crab stack) are no longer on the menu. How does that happen?

Try the Bison Burger - medium well. It's great with the Starr Hill Wheat Beer from Cville VA. Ask for the Happy Trail...not on the menu yet... Read more

The Po' Boy with horseradish-encrusted oysters is delicious. Served on a crusty roll with spring onion new potato salad and turnip slaw.

Chesapeake Room Eggs are unbelievable. Poached egg on top of a crab cake on top of a fried green tomato. Brilliant.

If you like gin, try the Summer with Lorraine. It's especially great on a hot summer day.

Hit or miss. We had brunch at the bar. Service was slow. Staff was polite but not welcoming. Didn't seem crazy busy, but they looked overwhelmed. Steak and oyster omelet was disappointing.
