Top Things to do in Georgetown
Top 10 Nightlife in Georgetown, District of Columbia (DC)
Washington DC is a hub for American politics and history. Attracting as many school field trips as it does travelers the district offers a peek into the country’s democratic origin. There are plenty of free museums to take advantage of but the real draw here is the memorials and monuments dedicated to great American leaders. Spend some contemplative time at the Reflecting Pool within the National Mall, among the most patriotic places in the country.

We went last night to hear Richie Goods' "The Goods Project". We enjoy jazz clubs and the format is pretty standard with a cover charge and a food/drink minimum which we found reasonable. We had enjoyed heavy appetizers earlier so we opted to enjoy a drink with the music. The drinks covered most of the minimum. The venue is very cozy so you can enjoy watching the musicians perform. We had a fun evening and will return.

We had come here previously just for drinks before dinner elsewhere. It was beautiful in Georgetown so we came to try the delicious burgers. We were not disappointed! Most toppings are included, but not cheese. Also, fries are not included. We split a side of sweet potato fries, that were very good. Bar service was excellent and friendly. We left happy and full.

We partner with rescues who save homeless cats and kittens at risk of euthanasia in high kill shelters, and house them in our cafes. Once they are at our locations, we care for our cats & kittens until they are adopted! Our mission is to reduce euthanasia in animal shelters, and to improve the lives of homeless cats.

It's nearly impossible to express our experience at Crumbs & Whiskers, but here's a try. I can't imagine a place more relaxing and therapeutic as the kitten lounge. The cute, adorable, playful kittens are bound to make you put all of your worries aside and make you forget the world around you exists - I almost forgot my boyfriend exists, and he was right there next to me! Special shout out to the manager in-charge of the DC cat cafe and kitten lounge, Miranda! I later came to know how helpful Miranda had been in accommodating our last minute booking, and squeeze in an extra session for my boyfriend to surprise me with. Not only that, Miranda made her way to the kitten lounge after wrapping up her day at the cat cafe to meet us. Miranda - if you are reading this, it was a pleasure meeting you and THANK YOU for making our experience at the kitten lounge one to remember! I have yet to meet another team of such dedicated, kind, and caring professionals who go above and beyond to make our furry friends feel so loved, and at home. C&W team - a huge THANK YOU for all that you do in saving our furry friends from euthanasia, sheltering them, and helping them find their forever home.
4. The Tombs
Overall Ratings
4.0 based on 18 reviews
Situated on the edge of Georgetown University's campus, The Tombs is a neighborhood restaurant by day and a popular gathering place for Georgetown students by night. Along with 1789, The Tombs is built in a Federal-style townhouse dating from the mid-1800s. When Georgetown alumnus Richard McCooey founded The Tombs in 1962, he named it after a mention in T.S. Eliot's poem "Bustopher Jones: The Cat About Town." Whether it's students watching a Hoya basketball game, Georgetown alumni sharing a pitcher of lager or neighbors enjoying Sunday brunch after visiting Holy Trinity Church, Tombs traditions run deep.

The Tombs hasn't changed much since I went there in the 1980s - I consider this a positive! It is almost always busy, but if you don't mind sitting at the bar it's generally quicker than the queue for tables. We went for brunch and had French onion soup, salad and steak and eggs. All very good. It's definitely Georgetown-themed, but I don't find it obnoxious. The oars over the fireplace are distinctive and if you know what the Dad Vail is, pretty impressive. By the way, a cool way to get there (and to ready yourself for brunch!) is up the "Exorcist Steps"!
