I call it an upscale bodega. Great wine and beer selection, delicious pizza, and unique snack and drink options if you need to stock up before your day exploring DC

An awesome outdoor brewery Originally from Brooklyn but we love it in DC too. Most of the beer selection here is IPAs, so if you don't like them, you may not have a good time :)

Local Coffee Shop - Great coffee but not the speediest. Worth the wait if you have time, so try somewhere else if you're in a rush

Stadsadvies

Vervoersmogelijkheden

Lots of travel options nearby

If you're up for it, walk downtown to visit musuems. The walk through Capitol Hill area is very pleasant , and takes around 20 minutes to get to the Capitol) (go south down 4th street until Maryland Avenue) For anywhere else, Google Maps is your friends The buses are generally pretty reliable and Google Maps accurately shows when the next one arrives. When taking the metro, use the Noma metro station (it's way quicker to get onto the platform there than at Union Station) Don't sleep on the Capital Bikeshare for a cheap and active way to explore the city!
