The Barking Dog

My favorite spot in Bethesda with a neighborhood feel. Delicious food at an affordable price, there are always happy hour deals and the service is incredible. A very cozy place to hang out, watch sports or catch up with friends. The event space is great and accommodates large groups. I definitely recommend the Crab Dip and Philly Cheese Steak.

What a place, lived up to its reputation (which we learnt when we were there)… some of the best buffalo wings on the East Coast. Guy behind the bar was very chill and attentive. Highly recommend!

Discovered this great local bar whilst on a short stopover in Bethesda travelling back out of the US. Great atmosphere, awesome bar staff, and good food with a decent beer selection. Really nice to find a non-corporate owned venue with real character and real people. Big thanks to Bob and his staff for making a couple of weary Aussie travellers feel so welcome!

Great Gastropub. Food was as expected meaning great bar food nothing out of this world but just what we were expecting. Friendly staff and good place to hang out.

Went here during Sunday night football, it was packed and everyone was having a good time watching the game and just enjoying their night. The staff was friendly and quick to serve us even with being so crowded. Prices might be a bit higher than I'd expect for a place that feels like a local/industry spot but overall I enjoyed it.
