Their service wasn't the greatest but they were dealing with tables full of drunk people. The food was delicious though. I went on a Thursday night, during dinner. read more

Bullfeathers On The Hill - Teddy Sandwich and fries - American Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Close to the Capital Building and steps away from the metro station. Arrived around 5 ish for dinner. The bar area was hopping but the dining room had plenty of tables. Seated quickly and our waitress took our order. I ordered Cobb salad with grilled chicken. The chicken did not have any flavor. The salad was fresh and the blue cheese dressing was chunky. My husband ordered the chicken parm sandwich which was very flavorful and the fries were tasty and cooked to perfection. The dining area needed some sprucing up. Had several waitresses come and take care of us which a find unusual. read more

A solid 2.5. This is a convenient location for a work lunch. I had the thunderbird (turkey, gouda, bacon, and pepperoni relish with chipotle mayo). It was a good, filling sandwich, although $18 is crazy work for what you get. They subbed fries for fingerling potatoes, but sadly they were hard, badly charred, and borderline inedible. The waitress was overwhelmed (she was the only one waiting on 20+ people) and I couldn't bring it up because we never saw her, which also meant no water refills, etc. Service in general was very slow due to being understaffed - I felt bad for her. All in all, it's solid enough food in an area with few options, just pricy for the quality. I think if I'd stuck with fries instead of venturing into roasted potatoes I would have been happy overall! read more

Good food and nice and quick service. Close to the Capital easy walking distance. Good fries.

It's been a fun place with good food for the last 20+ years I've been going. Prices have trended up but so has everything else. If you want a good lunch meeting place, Bullfeathers is a hit. read more

Super cool tavern lunch spot! Went on a recent trip to DC and the BLT & fries were amazing--heavy on the bacon, just the way I like it, super fast service with a smile, and you know Capitol Hill movers and shakers have been moving & shaking it within these walls for a long time. read more

Great food. 4/5. great and quick service. Went at 1:00 on a Wednesday. No complaints. Decently priced.

Closed at 8:30 for no reason. No reason to not update your hours if you're gonna close at 8:30 on a Friday night.

Take-out order of mac n' cheese was decent and included a very tasty and moist piece of cornbread. Mac n' cheese rating on a scale of 1-10 is a 7 for interesting use of Penne pasta instead of macaroni and decent taste, although not worth a special trip. The corn bread, which I usually don't like because it's way too dry and sweet, was actually the best cornbread I have ever had, on a scale of 1-10 it's definitely 10. read more

Over the years, I've probably been here dozens of times as it was nearby where we used to live. Also a quick walk to the House side of the Hill, it's popular with young government professionals for after work drinks. On the after we stopped in, it was filled and just got louder the longer we stayed. They have a lot of outdoor seating along the sidewalk, which is great for warmer weather, or under heaters if it's cold. Inside along the left is a big wooden bar with stools, and high top tables. To the right is the dining room with tables of various sizes for a more sit down experience. You can also order from the bar if you want appetizers to go with your drinks. The bartenders were super fast and attentive, being busy is clearly the norm here. I remember their food being okay, maybe good in a pinch. The bar has all manner of hard drinks and a respectable beer list. Glassware was clean and cold as well, prices reasonable with drink specials available as well. If you're exploring the Hill and in need a respite, this is a fun local place for some drinks and food. read more

Beautiful day for an outdoor seat, but the sun was sharp and the umbrella's we were told by the server would fall as the base was useless, and were instructed not to put it up. The neighbor restaurant had their umbrellas up. Management please go to Walmart and pick up some solid bases to resolve this inconvenience. I had the crab cake burger for $21 + taxes + tips and it was disappointing - Small bun / portion, dry and basic, nothing special to rant about. The fries were good. read more

This place is amazing! My sisters and I came together and sat at the bar. The bartenders were so kind and also super funny. The place was packed as it was Inauguration day. We got breakfast and lunch. My sisters both got the breakfast sandwich and I got the biscuits and gravy. A while later we got buffalo chicken wings. I would've ordered everything on the menu. The drinks were so good! I couldn't taste the alcohol, but it was definitely in there ha! Bullfeathers is a bright fun place and a short walk from the Capitol South Metro. read more

Bullfeathers is so hit or miss that if another grill restaurant opened on the House side of the Capitol I'd probably never go to Bullfeathers again. The hamburger is great, the fries are good, nothing is wrong with the food. The service is bad, however, and painfully lazy. Servers never seem to write things down, instead acting posh like they can remember it all. Thus it was no surprise that all three of our meals had problems and had to be sent back. In general, we were mostly ignored even though the place was mostly empty. The final bit that just really annoyed everyone was that they don't split checks, BUT if you split the check equally they will run three separate checks. It makes absolutely no sense other than just laziness, and the fact they never write down anything. At least Tortilla Coast got your order right. read more

Food is eh, ok. Service isn't great. Really busy with staffers and such at lunch. Could be a really cool spot but everything is really mediocre. read more

The spot to be in Capitol Hill. All the locals come here for a good time. It's not the best food but a fun experience.

After checking out the Botanical gardens (and a long day of travel), we decided it was time to get lunch. Looking up different places near us (on Yelp ) and Bullfeathers fit the bill. Lots of outdoor seating and plenty of room inside too! We always like seeing what others have ordered so while walking to our table, we saw lots of salads. The strawberry feta salad was so delicious! The honey-basil vinaigrette was perfectly paired with the arugula and strawberries. My sister got the black n blue salad which she enjoyed quite a bit. If you're wandering around Capitol Hill in search of food, hit this place up! read more

Good drinks and bartender. Came here last year randomly when i was strolling around Capitol Hill. Not sure if it was the timing or wrong day but between the hoity toity political people and the girl sitting next to me at the bar but I ended up grabbing one drink and leaving. The girl sitting next to me was huffing & puffing, breathing loudly for several minutes till i turned my head and said are you OK? I am sitting RIGHT next to you and you're huffing in my ear lol wtf. She proceeded to just drink her drink lol. Im from stoner laid back CA where i socialize with strangers 24/7. Not here. A kind of snobby environment, interesting to people watch for sure. I'm also sure no places on Capitol hill are my scene from the looks of it lol. read more

Cool little bar/pub near capitol hill, food is decently good for bar food, it came out fairly fast. Gets pretty packed during lunch time so be ready to wait. I've been here a few times never had anything bad to say. read more

Holy Hole In The Wall!! This place was amazing--my server, JC, was prompt and friendly. His recommendation: crab cakes and honey sriracha lime sauce totally worth it!! Trust me, not a disappointment and definitely a be-back spot!! Mark this as must visit location in DC...a true foodie must stop! read more

Went to Bullfeathers on the Hill with a friend, and it was a decent spot for some casual bar food. I ordered the wings and mozzarella sticks--not the healthiest choice, but they did the job. The atmosphere was fun enough for a Thursday night, and we stayed until around 9 PM. The service, though, felt like they were rushing us out the door, which was surprising since I just checked and saw they don't close until 10. It put a damper on the experience. Overall, it's not a bad spot if you're looking to catch up with a friend and just need a simple, no-frills setting. read more

We had a great family lunch here after a visit to the Capitol. The staff was really helpful, giving us a small glass of water to mix with headache medicine for one of my kids. They set up a table for us near the kitchen as it was busy. Our food was great and came out quickly. Fun place for lunch and great location, had a fun DC vibe for us tourists. Thank you ! read more

Bullfeathers (Bully's) is a staple on Capitol Hill, and I'm glad it's there. My first trip to Bully's was several decades ago, and I mostly thought of it as a Happy Hour spot. Later, I learned that they were open on Saturdays for brunch...so it became my Saturday morning retreat. (Those are my favorite memories.) Based on my commute, Bully's has once again become part of my routine. While it's definitely an enjoyable place to go after work, I've learned that their food is quite good: *Burgers are solid *Salads are terrific (my fave is the Black and Bleu) *Pizzas are good One of the surprises about Bully's is their great staff. Their customer service is great, and you can tell that the employees enjoy working there (and each other). Oh - and if the weather is nice - they have a great patio. Street parking is hit-or-miss...but it's literally across the street from the Capitol South Metro station, so - honestly - there's no reason to drive there. read more

Very busy venue on Capitol Hill. Fast paced, high turn over, loud conversations, all indications of making things happen here. Food was okay, atmosphere was noisy; it was hard to carry on a conversation. Prices were reasonable. We ordered: 3*Steak N Cheese with peppers, onions, and American cheese. Food was decent, nothing fancy. 3*Salmon BLT served on a bun, with dill, mayo. Per normal. 3*BLT: bread was toasted, and pretty good. All dishes included fries, but we asked for salad instead. Bull Feathers gladly replaced without extra charge. There were two choices for salad: Caesar or garden. Both salads were nice, clean and healthy. read more

Had wonderful service at Bullfeathers on the Hill. We were seated really quickly, brought our entrees without a long wait, and the quality was great for how much we paid for our meal. Bullfeathers has a pretty wide menu filled with lots of American eats, sandwhiches, salads, etc. there's ample seating inside & outside. read more

Another old-fashioned pub on the hill. Nice place to get a drink at the bar after work.

Great place to have a good American food bite to eat off the beaten path. The lamb burger I got is excellent and the service was great. It's a typical Bar scene restaurant- which I'm sure is hopping at times. Check this place out if you're up and around the Capital area. read more

These are some of my favorite crabcakes EVER!!! (this is coming from a crab cake snob!)

Sad and disappointed the cheeseburgers didn't come with any lettuce, tomato, or even a pickle on the side. Tiny ketchup cup for the fries only half-filled, and got attitude when asked for more. With a former congressman where we both often enjoyed working meals back in the day, but oh, how BFs has fallen :-( read more

Lively atmosphere. Lots of suits. Music was awesome, but still low enough to have good conversation. Food was delicious and the wine went down easy with friends. Would highly recommend. read more

Friendly service. Pros: Ham is great. Stewed beef is great also. Mashed potato is great had green onions. Cons: Potato salad or pottage with cabbage is weird - a bit sweet and savory but I'm not sure if I liked the spice mix that is used. I think this needs to be reworked. read more

I came for lunch with 2 colleagues. We sat at the bar because the dining room was closed for a private event. Average experience with food, good service, average cleanliness. Walking distance to the House. read more

Stopped here while visiting Washington DC. It was ok and the burger and sweet potato fries were good. Great location near the Eastern market area and convenient to Capitol hill. The inside was less desirable but overall, it was fine. read more

Went to this restaurant with a friend. The atmosphere was really nice, and so was the service. I ordered the Cheesesteak sub with French fries. The cheesesteak sub was really good, even though it was on the small side. I asked them to add lettuce and tomatoes on it, and all I received was a thin, small single piece of mostly white lettuce and once slice of tomato. The lettuce was so small that I mistakenly thought they had forgotten to put it in my sub. When you charge almost $15 for a cheesesteak sub and French fries, and the customer asks for lettuce and tomatoes, don't be so darn stingy on the veggies. They give you more lettuce and tomatoes on a Subway sub foot long sub for less money. You may only have one opportunity to impress a customer and get them to return to your restaurant, don't assure that they will never return because you're trying to save 15 cents on produce. The French fries were very good though. read more

Wouldn't have a clue how the food was. Server abandoned us for 20+ minutes and never took our food order. Others nearby were seated after us and got their food while we waited to order. Definitely a tourist trap. read more

Very loud inside. Just people, no DJ or music, just loud. My wife had pork chops and they were great. I had the chicken tenders and that is fried bar food, so, it is what it is. The honey mustard sauce they served with tenders was bad, not good. We had the large pretzel and that and the cold beer were the best things. Really like the pretzel. Maybe more salt next time. read more

Good place to eat but the low health score (84/100) will keep me away. The food was good (I had tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches and my girlfriend had salmon, broccoli, and mashed potatoes) and the price was good. The bar area was full, especially for a Tuesday evening. Several servers waited on us so ordering was a little goofy but they all tried hard. The primary waitress for us barely spoke English but she was pleasant. Once the health inspectors see that things are corrected, we'll return. read more
