A Dear friend of mine, Family use to own other locations in Washington DC area, her Beloved Mother was swindled by A Crocked Attorney from Washington DC, and During my time of working in Old Town. I do recall some very pleasant occasions at this location, although at times there were staff members that were not always polite or friendly to my self and other guest I may have brought in for A meal and perhaps even if we stopped in for cocktails. I do recall A bartender and I guess A Barack who were so ill mannered to put in as polite as I can be, I do recall the food as being acceptable. however if I am paying for the experience of the establishment I want to feel as if I will be treated with respect and kindness when putting out close to be $750 .00 dollars for A group of six for dinner and cocktails, I was left with the feeling not to attempt to come back, I wish the establishment well , but will take my guests and credit cards or cash to the Chart House , I truly am treated with respect and manners , and also made to feel welcomed. Back Best Regards Thomas Donaldson read more

Fun place. Has a great atmosphere and a good beer selection. The French dip is " good " but I have had better. Good service, good beer kinda makes up for it. read more

Been here a few times since i have lived in Alexandria. They have great drinks, delicious food and an awesome bar staff. There is one bartender who works here who has become almost like my go to guy. He make you feel so welcomed. Depending on the time of the year will determine the atmosphere. Siring football season you have the commraderie of xheering for your sport. On the slowe night great place to chill and relax with a drink and the tasty big mc. Friday during summer is very much the party night. Bit overall great place. read more

Went last night for dinner with a friend. The service was good however after we ate. We saw a rat. We showed it to the server he confirmed. Said he would get the manager. Manager came and apologized and walked away. Never eating there. Wouldn't recommended. If they are behaving so nonchalantly about a rat. I'm really concerned what the kitchen is like. read more

Food was delicious but portions were small. Service was decent but a little skimpy on the back and forth checking on us. Ambiance was nice, Quaint, a little dark. read more

Basket of fries tasted good but it wasn't much of a basket. Got these to go to watch the boat parade. I was planning on sharing with friends but I had to be selfish and eat them all because it was small and they were mostly crumbs. I must have gotten the last of the fries. read more

Where is Gordon Ramsey ?! This restaurant needs him STAT ! $17 for catfish that's not fresh , burnt , way too crispy . Kids burger was dry and the fries were nasty . There's nothing that stands out as amazing. We won't be back . read more

A great restaurant and place to grab brunch! The seating area next to the brick wall is beautiful too! My husband, son, and I grabbed brunch there with a friend. One thing I absolutely love is that it is kid friendly! We shared the French toast, omelette, and grilled cheese for my son. Everything was delicious! My son was a fan of the grilled cheese and French toast! Location is right next to the water front, so it's in a perfect location to stretch your legs after a meal. Love it here and hope to visit again soon! read more

I'll start off with the not so great.. the floors are oily like you will slip in heels oily must baby step walk to be safe. Service was good and very attentive. Came here last minute to celebrate my birthday with a small group of 8. Food came out hot and fast. The fried green tomatoes were delicious as well as this bacon jam they served. Everything was tasty all that was missing was some solid drinks. I'll have to find my pics of our food but I would definitely be back. read more

Sat at the bar. Friendly welcome. Food arrived quickly. Outstanding: Butternut squash & Black Bean Wrap. Hubby loved his ever-so -cheesy chicken quesadilla; reliably good - repeatedly. Thank you Jordan and Charles and Eddie for a lovely evening. Happy customer :D read more

When you walk into this establishment it gives an old unique spot. I love the ambiance and decor inside. The service was amazing. I asked for a mock tail and my server made sure it was the best mock tail I've had. Also, she ensured I was well taken care of until my friend came. The food came out at a great time and it was really fresh and delicious. The crab dip was very flavorful and the bread was fresh. The spicy cocker egg rolls were my favorite l. They were just packed with so much flavor and seasoning. My friend enjoyed his Cobb salad he s a chef so he approved of everything. The wings were a nice size and had a great taste. I give them a 5/5. And I heard they have a late night menu and stays open very late. This is good and I will be back soon. read more

Chadwicks is one of my favorite spots to sit on the barstool with a friend and let the time pass. The atmosphere is one of an old pub, but it is off the main street by the water which makes it unique and set apart from the other restaurants of Old Town Alexandria. The food is always consistent and always very good. They have the best burger and the best fried chicken sandwich anywhere. I order these, along with a Chadwicks Amber most of the time I am there. The fried chicken dinner is also recommended, as well as any daily specials they may have. Friendly staff that makes you want to come back again and again. read more

Good food in a rustic setting. Our server was nice but rarely checked up on us and never offered to refill our empty waters. My eggs chesapeake was really tasty, but they skimped on the crab cake and overcooked the eggs/the yolk was already popped. I liked the bearnaise - it was really buttery and slightly tangy. I tried my friend's francois and it was delicious - the fried chicken was so crispy. I did enjoy my meal and while nothing was terrible, nothing really blew me away. There was also a surprise appearance of what looked like a green bell pepper piece in my fruit, which was odd. Overall, I would not come back and I do not recommend this restaurant. The food tasted good but presentation was lazy, and the ambiance and service was just okay. read more

It's been a while since we've been, but finally made it back for a brunch gathering. First of all, the service was amazing! Jennea was terrific. The Spicy Bloody Mary was a great start, but the star was the Jalapeño Cucumber margarita! I had a hard time picking from the great menu, but ended up getting the brunch taco's! Bro...these are a must! The atmosphere was good, we sat upstairs. Not too loud. Highly recommend...there's a reason they've been in business for as long as they have! A staple of Old Town charm!! Again, ask for Jennea (pronounced Jen-A)...so sweet and a great server read more

Got there when they opened on a Saturday for brunch. Delicious food! Had eggs Benedict with bacon and cheese grits and biscuits and gravy. Brunch specials were their Mimosas and Bloody Marys. Service was good, asking a few times if we needed anything. Love that this restaurant is in an old historical building. Great character! read more

Great location in Old Town. Standard fare. The place was crowded on a Friday night. It was mostly couples and SINGLE MEN watching the game. I couldn't believe how many men were there. I was with my boyfriend and I wanted to send up a bat signal to let all the single women in the area know that the men are here. Lol. The service at the bar was fast and friendly. The drinks were good. We ordered a Rueben and crab cakes. The Rueben was a hit. The crab cake was meh. They said it was lump, but tasted like backfin to me. The fresh fruit that I ordered was truly fresh and delicious. Parking is plentiful. Cute, casual date night spot, and people were friendly. It looked like a great place to meet someone. read more

Happy with the food and the service at this restaurant. Came here around 10:30am and was able to beat the brunch crowd that arrives closer to noon. Service was simple and efficient. We were seated and given our menus to look at and our server just told us to wave him down whenever we were ready. I ordered the chocolate chip pancakes and a grapefruit mimosa. The pancakes were fluffy and had the perfect amount of chocolate chips to not overwhelm you and feel like you're eating a dessert. Additionally, the pancakes had a large scoop of cinnamon butter which was enough to spread amongst the whole stack. The mimosa was light and refreshing. Even got a free half refill from our server. Overall, a good experience. Prices weren't too steep for the portion you're receiving, in my opinion. In the future, I would likely try different menu items for brunch. A great spot in Old Town if you arrive at a good time. read more

Great brunch option in Old Town On Saturday and Sundays until 3:30. I've eaten here twice for brunch and the food has been pretty darn good!! I had the French toast a few months back and it was super yummy. This recent visit, however, I pigged out and ordered Eggs any style (scrambled for me please), bacon and a chocolate chip pancake! Soooo yummy!! Alex was our server and he was super energetic, attentive and just got the job done! He gave us the run down - how much longer we had to order brunch (on Sunday, brunch was over at 3:30pm) and the brunch cocktail specials. Good stuff!! Everything was great! I really enjoyed the flavorful cheddar grits! Seasoned to perfection! Overall, if it's not toooo busy, try and grab a yummy brunch at a great value! read more

Chadwicks - Eggs Any Style with bacon and cheddar grits Chocolate chip pancake - American Near Me - Alexandria, Virginia

BARELY a 3 star. Sunday service is slow and bar staff are inattentive, portions are woefully small. I ordered tenders and fries... $12 for 1/3-1/4 sized serving (of most other places) cut into thin overly breaded strips. $4 for 1/2 serving of fries. Served room temp. Brought this up to bartender and was told, 'well have a nice day'.., literally. Everyone has different expectations, but I believe this would universally be a thumbs down. Day staff service and quality (of everything) here has suffered in the last few years. Evening/late night staff is on point. Suggest going elsewhere unless you're here at 1AM. read more

The food was hot and tasty. The service was good. I would eat here again. Wee both had the Buttermilk Fried Chicken entree.

Great Alexandria staple. I love sitting in the bar area. The food and drinks are solid. One of my go to spots.

Apparently this bar REFUSED to put the inauguration on any of its TVs after a huge amount of people requested it, as we had nowhere to watch it in the 9* weather. SO MANY OF US WALKED OUT- HORRIBLE HORRIBLE read more

Chadwick's was just okay. It's a good casual spot for lunch or an early dinner near old town and near the waterfront. Outdoor seating was a plus and the food was pretty standard considering they have a wide array to choose from (mainly American). The service seemed quick and efficient. It was worth the stop. PROS: - Outdoor seating - Service was quick (lunch hours) - Casual atmosphere CONS: - Some menu items overpriced read more

We stumbled into this restaurant on one of our recent family trips. Out of all of the spots we ate at over the week this was the worst. We quickly learned quick pace and attentiveness isn't something the east coast has in their waiter had guide so we will just briefly mention it. The clam chowder as my husband described it was like Thanksgiving chowder. Everything else was just fine. If you are looking for a quick bite to eat great, anything more you should head somewhere else. read more

Location, service, and food all good. Really like this place, will go back and I highly recommend a visit, I will go back here.

Had lunch here it was ok at best. The service was great, friendly staff, very kind and quick. The food not so much. Ordered the fried green tomatoes it was a bit hard to taste them because the jalapeño sauce was a bit much as they were drenched in them. The bacon jam was actually good, but I would think that the sauces would've come on the side, especially for a food that has a delicate taste. The crab dip, as a native Washingtonian / Marylander who has been eating crab my entire life. I would say I know good crab from miles away. It was very seasoned and the lemon was so overwhelming. I could not taste any crab. It tasted like Cajun lemon sauce. The fried chicken was actually really good, we usually don't like the breast, but it was actually very flavorful and well cooked. The burger was good as well and their drinks are pretty solid. All and all it was an ok experience but not for the price. read more

The food was ok. Standard American food and it's in Old town. The location makes it a great date spot because you can chill by the water or get dessert nearby. They were pretty busy, but the service was good! read more

Had a delicious dinner here on a Saturday night. It was chilly outside but warm and cozy inside. The crab cake sandwich was delicious and well-portioned. We were able to get a same-day reservation for 4 + 1 toddler so that was nice! Prices were fair and the service was good. Great experience all around. read more

Perfect spot for a mid day snack or dinner. I liked the Coleslaw the best, very yummy! The blue carb dip was a great appetizer that is decent size to share. The chicken quesadilla was a 5/10, would not recommend ordering if you like authentic Mexican food. The quesadilla was soggy on one side and crispy on the other, could be better. The service was okay, the waitress was busy most of time and left mid conversation when ordering. The inside of the restaurant is very pretty and aesthetic, as seen in the picture below. Overall, would go back for a drink at the bar but for food not so much. read more

I worked with chadwicks for a special birthday celebration and they were INCREDIBLE. It was for a group of six with a unique circumstance. Both managers I talked to were super helpful. On the day of the event, everyone including the hostess were magnificent. If you ever need to stage any kind of event or happening, big or small, this is your place. read more

5/5 Blackened Salmon Greek salad, whether or not you're on a keto diet. The pickled onions have sugar, but live a little. I'm in town for five nights and have been surveying the lands for keto-friendly options. Most places offer burgers and some offer seafoods (grilled octopus, mussels in stew form). $20+ for lunch before tip is the norm and many creep closer to or surpass $30. This Blackened Salmon Greek Salad clocks in under $21 pre-tip and is my happiest find - virtually no simple carbs, high healthier fats with olives and salmon, and plenty of leafy and green vegetables. I'm also interested in the Seafood Cobb for later in the week! read more

Came here for a late lunch with a party of 5. We ordered: - clam chowder (one of the better items on the menu) - crab cake sandwich (also good) - veggie burger (a bit bland and underwhelming but does the job) - ribs (they came out barely warm. The person who ordered had to send it back to be heated up. Once that was done, they said it was better) - burgers with a side of veggies (veggies here = a bowl of broccoli). One of the burgers was over cooked. Overall just average food. Although the location was nice, I won't be returning. read more

Cozy atmosphere and lots of life in this restaurant. It was a busy Friday night yet we were able to be quickly seated. Server was quick and friendly, which we really appreciated. We started off with the crab poutine and it was just what you would expect of it. Wasn't really that hot but outside of that we had no complaints. Buttermilk fried chicken was made amazingly. It was made just right and hot enough to last the meal, which I definitely appreciated. Macaroni may not have been lifechanging but it was still good, and when I finally finished my chicken I realized there was a biscuit just waiting to be devoured. All in all, it was a good time! Would definitely recommend. read more
