We're becoming regulars here! It's great at all hours -- but we particularly love it for dinner and brunch.
We love our wine (there's a reason we chose France for our elopement and honeymoon!) and this place has a great selection of wine and charcuterie boards.
This place has three stories and three different concepts. The downstairs is more casual with tacos and quesadillas. The second story is a fancier sit down restaurant. And the roof has a killer view with amazing drinks and great bar snacks.
Cute beer hall with great craft beers and good food in Clarendon.
This foodhall is really great and an easy walk or metro from Clarendon. Highly recommend checking it out and sitting outside, weather permitting. (Get the hot chicken at Lola's and thank us later!).
If you love Ted's Bulletin's poptarts than this place is for you! Sidekick is their small bakery in the Ballston neighborhood, specializing in tarts, pastries, croissants, and coffee. Definitely a great spot for breakfast or a pick me up any time of the day.
A brand new beer hall in the Ballston neighborhood. Take advantage of it being Oktoberfest and grab some beer specials here.
One of our favorite places -- and we do miss living around the corner from it! You can't go wrong at any place here, but getting a sandwich and glass of wine at La Jambe was one of our favorite things to do on a Saturday.
In the NoMa neighborhood of DC, this opened right after Grant and I moved from just down the block to Arlington. It is a food hall specializing in Latin American cuisine.
This isn't in Clarendon, but definitely worth a trek into DC. The Wharf is a new-ish development with lots of great bars, restaurants, and shopping. Also a great spot to grab the water taxi over to National Harbor or Alexandria. While not super metro accessible, you can take the metro directly to the closet station from Clarendon and then either hop on the free shuttle or do a 10 minute walk.
Another not in VA place that's worth checking out if you have time. Even looking past the casinos and outlets, there is decent shopping and restaurants over here. Best way to get there is via water taxi.
