Whitlows is a great time for drinks and food. I always get great service and the bar staff is so friendly. The drinks are really good and decently priced. I've had the Cuban which was delicious but not authentic. It tasted like it was made with bbq pulled pork which isn't authentic but still pretty good. The fried chicken sandwich was amazing but could use a sauce. read more

Hot take: this was the best bottomless brunch I've had in my 4 years in DC. We went in with very low expectations for the food but had an amazing BLT and fried chicken biscuit. All the sauces tasted homemade. Bottomless orange crushes in a take-home mug. Great service (thank you Charlotte!). No notes read more

cool and very large hangout bar on u street! it's massive and they have some kind of deal going on every day (trivia on mondays at 7pm, djs on the weekend, and bucket nights on tuesdays). the rooftop is very fun and there's games like pong and darts and stuff on the inside. the beer selection is great and honestly the food isn't bad at all either (the chicken wrap and burgers are the best). it's a bit on the younger side when it comes to the crowd (arlington takes dc) and lots of college kids but still a great time as the bartenders are super chill and there's always lots to do! read more

Where do I Begin??  So I Visted Witlows on Ust today as a first time guest.. just to watch the Philadelphia Eagles first pre season against the Baltimore ravens... the experience was awful .. Since it was my first visit I wanted to check out the  entire 3 level establishment..so after checking out all 3 levels I decided  it was  too hot on the rooftop, no chairs at 2nd level bar due to them getting ready for the Saturday night dance party...  so level 1 was where I Parked myself to have a beer and enjoy the game.. So I was approached by a Latina Bartender her name?? Who care..  she said "you want something?"  Me "let me look for a second" as she just stood and stared Me "I'll have a devil backbone" Her  "open or close the tab?" b4 she even gave me the beer? Me " I can pay for it now?"  So she bring the beer and the check and throws the check on the bar and ping pong reaction i tossed it back ..as if I was some random guy ( black male, not going to tip anything) not to mention 20% was added anyway but me being a big time restaurant guy I would of NEVER just left 2$ that was included ‍ So I gave here the 20$ and said "bring my Change back down to the Penny" Her "we round the change up here" what?? So you STEALING also ‍ So she bring the 11$ back .. and I said and probably shouldn't but I say  "Just remember you are Latina..You are NOT White"   she stormed off for a manager, security, anybody she could find.. Manager, Security,  Everyone finally  comes  over to me and say "sir you have to leave". Took the beer  Me " I'll leave just give me my money back for the beer ..or give me to go cup and I'll go... The Manger proceeded to put his whole hand in the beer like f*ck u .. I'll see u again sir #facts .. Police came and I'm not allowed in ... no problem  but get this place together b4 it really gets ugly .. this was a lot but ..any lawyers out there‍ read more

What a jam! What a vibe! I used to frequent their Arlington location, but I love this spot even more. Great staff, fabulous food/drink, and a really welcoming spot. Nice work on the reopening, y'all!! read more

The jalapeño poppers... gross. Soggy and not crispy at all. The smash burger... do not recommend. Poorly seasoned and tastes like struggle and sadness. read more

I only been twice and it was during happy hour. So on Monday's they have hh all day when the open. Tuesday they have 25% off tequila and a singo bingo. Wednesday they have 25% off whiskey. Thursday hh from 5-8pm they also have live music on this day. Friday hh from 5-7pm. Everyone knows Whitlows from va but the owners decided to bring whitlows to u street. Hh is really cheap where rail drinks being $5 and draft beers and speciality drinks being $8. The place features two bars in the inside and an outside patio. The place does get full as the night goes on. The only get there food from Andy's pizza which is next door. I don't really eat pizza so that's the only con is I wish they had food, so I wouldn't hve to go to get dinner next or before. I will definitely be back since it's near my friends house and I will cheap it out on the weekend. read more

Good service, nice fries. The roof top is comfortable even in the heat, with big fans.

Unreasonably rude staff. Horrible drinks! Even after we asked if they made martinis. We asked for "Titos" martinis but they were clearly rail. Rude and unhelpful in the drink department. Need to get more customer-centered bartenders that won't charge $22 for a half glass of deep eddys and olive juice out of a bottle. Do better. This is from a bartender. read more

This place has incredible drinks. Highly recommend the Whitlow's Sunset and Espresso Martini. read more

Good food good people good time... Arlington has come to DC. All the Wilson Blvd. good times have come to U st. Worth checking out.

My daughter left her designer handbag (included a matching wallet) there after a night of drinking. She contacted them on social media asking them if it was there and they replied yes and described the bag to her. My daughter was leaving town for over a week and asked her friend to pick it up. She let the restaurant know. There was some sort of miscommunication and her friend never picked it up. When my daughter returned to DC, she went there and the bartender checked the lost and found and it wasn't there. She said they check ID's when people pick up items from the lost and found. My daughter talked to a manager a few days later and she assured her that she'd ask the other managers about the bag, but in the meantime she told her to send an email to whoever the person is that receives them. The next day my daughter received an email stating that after two weeks items from the lost and found are disposed of. Now, I'm calling bullshit on this. I honestly don't believe that they'd discard over $600 worth of merchandise. My daughter asked if they keep records of items that are thrown away and she received no reply. She ended up filing a police report. I believe that someone from their establishment took it since it sat in their list and found for 2 weeks. So, I encourage people to keep their belongings close by when going to this restaurant, since they are full of dishonest workers. read more

Whoever is the front bouncer who checks the IDs at the front made me feel so welcomed! Loved his energy! ( it was a Thursday night if that narrows it down) read more

Great food , best perch I have ever had and the servers are the best .everyone who works there are such hardworking folks and they always have a smile on there face!! read more

Three beers for fifty bucks, Not worth it, oh shucks, Bouncers aggressive and rude, Fun night turns into bad mood. read more

Absolutely love Whitlows! Drinks are great and they have awesome specials for happy hour too! Staff here are so friendly! Brandon, Connie, Amanda, and I think his name is Andrew (wears glasses and usually a backwards hat) are the best bartenders!!! Definitely recommend going here! read more

Love this spot! Great drinks and awesome bartenders! They have jazz nights on Tuesdays and all day happy hour on Mondays and Sundays. Always have a blast every time I go! read more

always have a great time when I'm there! usually spend $10-$20. I love the rocketpop lemonade!

Not sure what the end game is here. Whitlows took exiting space and did nothing, added a minimal menu that is online and you have to pick it up and unneeded (and uncomfortable) security. Basically a college hangout where your tip is already added. Disappointing as I remember Whitlows on Wilson fondly. read more

I have been to Whitlows a few times and it was been fun, but recently I had a very bad experience with the staff. Almost all the staff were very rude and irritable, directing people through doorways and to stairs. This I can overlook because I can only imagine the kinds of people they have to deal with. But later my friend and I were standing next to the bar on the third floor and the bar back wanted us to move out of an unmarked "staff only" zone. Instead of asking us to step aside, he PUSHED me and my friend out of the way and yelled that we can't stand there. There was no clear way of knowing that was a staff only zone and there is absolutely no reason he needed to put his hands on us. He pushed my friend hard and she was very upset and tried to talk to him about it and he just turned his back to us. Extremely rude, unprofessional, and violent. We were completely sober also and would have happily gotten out of the way if asked. Whitlows please do better with training your staff. read more

They don't live up to their VA rep. Vibe is so disappointing and they add 20% gratuity to all checks before you realize. Totally taking advantage of people who aren't paying attention. I would leave no stars, but I respect who they used to be. read more

Unfortunately, this establishment is unsafe for women to go to. My friend was physically taken from the bar without notice and without explanation - and thrown onto the street without her phone, wallet, or coat. It's unacceptable to treat women this way and a huge safety issue. I'm shocked at the way this establishment handles issues and extremely disappointed in the staff. read more

I can not overstate how terribly my friend and I were treated here. Their bouncers are extremely rough, unprofessional and irrational. We were roughly thrown out and treated like animals for merely going into the same bathroom stall. We received no explanation, no apology and we were thrown out on the street with no phone or wallet late at night and alone. The woman bouncer jeered at us and flicked us of when we asked to come back in to get out stuff. It was such a terrifying situation to be in as a woman to be so roughly treated and left out on the street alone late at night. Thankfully we are okay and our friends eventually were able to help us. I caution other women to be careful when coming here because clearly they have no consideration for womens safety. read more

Whitlows is awesome. Brandon is the best bartender. Food is good and drinks and ambience so fun

Great Food, music, and reasonable drinks when it was the Virginia location. Would like to see the same menu at new location.

awful service . security was letting only men and cutting the line not just one but a big crowd. when I finally walked in since two of my friends went in before me, two of the security dragged me out for no reason and one of them used her hands to drag me out when I was completely sober. i have never experienced something so bad. 0 stars and the security could catch a charge. read more
