    Black, queer space! They just opened a few weeks back so all the men in the region are stopping by to see it and I'm enjoying the view. It's winter right now so the retractable roof is closed. The drinks are good and the staff is nice.

    Solo tripped to DC and Thurst was a blast. Welcoming, good hookah, and great drinks. Can't wait come back.

    Looking for a great sports bar with March Madness around the corner and checked out Over Under…read more A few things: - it's a little difficult to find and once inside you go through a dark, empty hallway to get the elevator to the roof. - while true that it is a roof, it is a roof on the 3rd floor surrounded by buildings and overlooking the not so scenic K St. - lots of TVs, large bar, lounge tables and a lot of space. It was empty for a weekend afternoon The drinks were cheap - $7 for specials and they weee made pretty strong. Service was friendly. They add 20% gratuity automatically and don't share that with you - which is always a pain and not appreciated when they don't tell you and with lots of restaurants following different rules in DC.

    I stopped by Over Under on a sunny Saturday afternoon - I was looking for a rooftop and this spot…read morefit the bill. Once inside, we were escorted up an elevator to the rooftop which was set up very comfortably. There's a long bar that seats 10-15 guests, lots of high top tables, and a good handful of booths. The lighting is fun, views are solid, and open-covered patio is really nice. The drinks were good - there was a $6 vodka lemonade special for the day so we had a few rounds of those. The lemonade they used was delicious - perfectly tart to cut the vodka well. They also added mint to the drink, which really made it pop. I'm about to start doing the same at home! We tried the nachos which were a little disappointing. Nothing stood out from a flavor or taste perspective - they need a little pop of seasoning or flavor. They also weren't your traditional nacho platter, but seemingly an elevated 'fancier' version. Appreciate the effort to elevate the dish, but a classic sheetpan nacho would have been perfect. Our service was a little bit slow - we found ourselves having to work a little bit to flag down a waitress or bartender. Not terribly slow, but something that we noticed throughout the afternoon. Pro tip: Keep your eyes peeled as you head towards the entrance - the main door was a little tough to find. We walked right past the entrance way once and had to doubleback. A larger sidewalk presence might be helpful to help bring folks in.

They were able to accommodate my large party with ease. The mimosas were flowing, the brunch plates were full (and plentiful), and overall the service was attentive and seamless. When it was time to celebrate me as the main event, they truly delivered -- dessert, shots, marquee signs -- the whole moment. I felt like a star. Definitely main character energy. I always enjoy my experiences at Park, and honestly, I may be back again next year for a three-peat birthday celebration. It's always a great time.

My sisters and I were starving, so of course our eyes were bigger than our stomachs -- we ordered everything! Just a heads up: make sure you can finish it because you can't take HH food to go. The manager was super accommodating and attentive. He checked on us multiple times and made sure our waters stayed full -- we love a manager who manages! I've been to The Park a few times, and I'm not even going to lie -- I go for the HH every time. They have one of the BEST happy hours in the DMV. Don't argue with me! The drinks are reasonably priced, the food prices are on point, and everything is GOOD. The Park is always CLEAN -- from top to bottom, okay! It gives upscale restaurant vibes every time. I always forget how cute it is inside, and the music was definitely setting the tone. They're officially back on my HH recommendation list!

We decided to stay and check it out, @1pm on a Sunday. Brunch is from 11a-4pm. There was only 1 other person for brunch, when we arrived. There was a DJ was that playing super loud music. Mostly rap music. The food was good. Fresh salad, fruit, meats etc. Unlimited mimosas was $25 per person. We could only order 1 flavor at a time, which there was about 8 flavors. They were good By 3pm, the place was more so filling up. What was crazy was at 4pm, the workers started breaking down the buffet-- quickly!! A group that had arrived @ 3 were caught off guard that brunch was ending. The workers did provide everyone with TAKE HOME Boxes, so we filled our boxes as fast as they were breaking it down lol Hookah guy arrived, think it was a total of $68. The hookah was good Gratuity is automatically included. Our waitress was GREAT! Only thing I didn't like, the place had her walking around in a tight leopard body suit, with her arms out, like this was the Playboy mansion. It was cold in there. I would come back for brunch - just know, there was not a mention of a Buffet brunch online

    This place was great…read more Amazing venue to come hang out and check it out. Clean and just a cool hip place to be. Near the college and I enjoyed that. Beer was great and was happy to get to try many of them. I will be back when I am in town next.

    Great local bar with large rotating craft beer selection. Highly recommend for any beer…read moreenthusiast. They have wine and cocktails as well. They are happy to recommend beer for your taste, and let you sample. It can be very busy and difficult to get a seat at the bar or get a table on a Friday or Saturday evening. We ordered food, and were expecting elevated bar food. The tater tots were a huge disappointment- they were very large squares , bland, and not crispy. The wings were okay. The cheeseburgers were the best- from the restaurant downstairs- mallard. Huge burger, done perfectly medium.

I visited as part of the full experience -- dinner downstairs at Birch & Barley, then up to Churchkey for drinks -- and honestly, it's one of the best evenings I've had in DC. Churchkey itself is everything a great bar should be. The beer selection is absolutely unreal -- hundreds of carefully curated labels spanning every style, region, and flavor profile you can imagine. What sets it apart is that the staff actually knows the menu. Our server walked us through a few options based on what we liked and landed us on perfect picks both times. That kind of genuine expertise is rare. The tavern pizzas from the wood-fired oven were a wonderful surprise -- thin, crispy, and the perfect companion to a cold draft. The smash burger also deserves a mention: simple, well-executed, and hits the spot. The vibe is warm and lively without being overwhelming. Great for a date, a group, or even just sitting at the bar solo with a good beer and good conversation with the bartender. This place has earned its reputation as one of the best beer bars on the East Coast -- and then some. Highly recommend making a full night of it with both floors. You won't regret it. Feel free to adjust the tone or add any personal details from your actual visit!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
