    Pour of Pinot Noir from Sonoma. Pretty Tart. My wife would get this again.
    Nelson T.

    Underrated afternoon chill for getting draft beer and healthy pours of wine. We usually come during the week for the burger and beer deal. This time we came and the menu had added options such as the crab cake and fish and chips. Every time we come the server is friendly and gets our food out quickly. The seats are always abundant. Order. Eat. People watch.

    Thursday happy hour deal. Burger fries and a beer for less yhan$15. It was so good.

    The burger was good along with the fries. You can never go wrong with the California Creamian beer. On Thursdays this is all for less than $15!

    My only weakness...

    I'd like to start this review by stating that I don't really consider Hangar Bar to be a "bar". It's really a section of Whole Foods with many good beers on tap and a menu with a number of vegetarian and vegan options. What it does, it does very well, and I prefer Hangar Bar to most bars, including Back Bay Tavern (which I would say qualifies). Yeah, yeah, Whole Paycheck (sorry, Mr. Mackey, but it fits). Hangar Bar does have a number of specials that you can take advantage of, though. My wife and I visited on Thursday and did the $13 house burger and brew deal. Excellent call. We both had Beyond Burgers, the vegan alternative to meat, and this omnivore was very satisfied. If you don't like meat, you may not like this because it is a remarkable facsimile. I do wish the tomatoes and butter lettuce had been fresher. The french fries were outstanding, and my vegetarian wife suspected that they might have been cooked in beef tallow. You don't think...? If we return on a Thursday, we may do the $7 whole cheese pizza deal. You do know that you can bring any food from the store to have at the bar, right? I believe this applies to the beer and wine, too. Wednesday would be another good day to come because that's when Whole Foods discounts the salad bar. Hangar Bar also does Taco Tuesday (including vegetarian jackfruit) and a happy hour Monday through Friday, 4 to 6 pm. What about the beer? Well, how do you like 35 tap handles? Hangar Bar doesn't have a website, but you can check out TapHunter for their current draft list. They also have wine and cocktails. I will be sure to return for happy hour or for one of their daily specials. I like tasty, healthy food and good beer, so I like Hangar Bar, and I think that you will, too.

    A full bar in the grocery store? Yes please...

    A bar in a supermarket. Who'da thunk it? Well whole Foods is no ordinary supermarket, and the Hanger Bar is not the typical bar. I think it exists as more of a way to get more people into Whole Foods and stay there longer, and as a way to get folks to try beers, wines and spirits on sale there. But hey, who am I to complain? I had a nice steak and eggs for brunch, and it was a rather large steak. It could have used a little seasoning while cooking, but nothing that a bit of salt and pepper could not cure. I would have also liked a bit of starch on the plate, but I'll fix that next time with a side of potatoes. The Bloody Marys are also very good, with Lava Bloody Mary mix, a really good option in my opinion. So I'll be back, at the very least on weekend afternoons when I am soloing it.

    I am a little disappointed that this wasn't here when I used to come to Whole Foods weekly during my work lunch break back in 2013. At the same time, I suppose it might actually be a blessing that this wasn't available back then, I can't even imagine how much money I would have spent here. Warning, if you tend to stress eat and drink, you may find it too easy to overspend here. Hangar Bar and Grill is such a fantastic new addition to the newly remodeled Whole Foods. It gives Whole Foods a little more options that the prepared foods bar with menu items that are cooked to order. There is also a bar with craft brews, and a rotating special menu with daily specials such charcuterie and wine, or a burger and brew combo. They also have happy hour! It is a little confusing because they don't have their menu posted (just a beer menu) but the food is all on a paper menu. You can order at the bar or order with a waiter. This is great for a casual work lunch or work happy hour. Not sure if it is good for anything else as it's situated inside a grocery store, so the ambiance isn't exactly "exciting". Parking is plenty, though traffic flow is awful, as per the entire District parking lot, but I do not think that part is going to change any time soon. I usually just come during off peak hours to avoid the traffic and the whole experience is much more pleasant.

    Porcini mushrooms cutlet with risotto

    "Why don't we go to Whole Foods for lunch?" I never thought I would hear my husband utter those words, but yesterday he did. We were going to get some hot food from the self service area... but I saw a child grabbing handfuls of lettuce, putting it in his bowl, and then putting it back with his hands. That was kind of a turn off. We walked to the front of the store and stumbled upon Hangar Bar. Cleverly named for the old hangers, the menu appealed to me because of its many non-meat options. I'm not a vegetarian by any means, but just trying to eat a little better. I opted for the porcini cutlet with risotto, while my other half had the burger. A place where we can both eat and be happy! Ahh! I was really satisfied with my mushroom, and he equally loved his burger. I managed a nibble on his fries, too, and thought they were tasty. I'm usually not a potato person. I look forward to going back and trying the charcuterie board! 2017: 13/100

    Located inside Whole Foods Market. Never disappointed... the place to be Friday night. It was pretty busy this Friday night. The craft beers, the variety of food, customer service, and the price, all makes the experience even better. Entertainment is a plus! They have DJs to entertain guests, but usually 1 DJ at a time. Tonight's order included steak frites w/brussels sprouts, kale salad & another steak frites with side salad, because it's was so yummy the first time! No where around here can beat this! Variety of beer selection. Really enjoyed the raspberry (nitro style). Nutkin' futz has a really yummy nutty flavor. Customer service is great when they are able to get to you. A bit of patience is worth it. Apparently you can bring food from the market to eat here, at least we did & no one said anything.

    Beer selection is great, as everyone knows parking in the District is a nightmare, I gave up after waiting and just parked across the street in the Lowes/Lucilles parking lot. Service was good and food choices were respectable. I enjoy the fact that they moved the bar to the front to be it's own stand alone entity, used to be in the back. Will come back.

The "speakeasy" is really a sectioned-off corner of the restaurant using room dividers that don't even reach the ceiling. There's no sense of separation, no hidden entrance, nothing that creates that immersive underground atmosphere a true speakeasy should have. It feels more like a themed alcove than a secret bar. That said, the interior décor is genuinely charming and adorable: think cozy cabin vibes with wood panels and rustic touches. It's actually beautifully done, and honestly? They should lean into it and make the whole restaurant this theme. The drinks are good, no complaints there. But the experience is let down by the tight space (reservations are basically a must -- don't bother dropping in), the wait, and the gap between expectation and reality. If you're looking for a cute spot with solid cocktails, you might enjoy it, but if you are looking for the speakeasy experience, this isn't quite it.

Instead, I called them and they were able to accommodate that change. Since, Bar Tinto is in WIP, we know that parking here sucks. So come early for parking, luckily they were able to hold our table. This review is for Jonathan Garcia's menu. Kushi oysters were served with a lime mignonette already in the oyster shell. Oysters tasted fresh and good quality. The ribeye vampiro was served on a corn tortilla, with a sheet of cheese, and balanced salsa. I was expecting nice thick chunks of ribeye, but it was a thin crispy slice. I enjoyed the dish, but I was hoping for more. I tried my friend's pork belly taco and it's delicious. The fattiness was decadent. I wish I ordered one for myself. In addition, as a wine bar I would expect a wider variety of wines. They are knowledgeable about the 5 wines on the menu. It's ironic facing a wall of wines, but only able to sip on 5 varietals and some spritz options. However, the desserts were delicious and I recommend saving room for both of them. Unfortunately, I would not return here. The customer service was attentive, but kitchen is slow. If you do decide to come here, then I suggest you practice patience or come here on a date with someone you really like. Also, check their IG for an updated menu, since it probably changes often.
