There are tons of locations throughout the city of Duke’s. Duke’s is known for their burger but their spicy aubergine sandwich is our favorite.
Amazing place for a quick slice or to order a full pizza from.
Absolutely amazing place for a sandwich to eat in DuPont circle. Our favorite is the crunchy boy, and don’t be fooled these sandwiches can easily be shared.
There are a ton of locations for Tatte, it’s a great place for a quick coffee and pastry before the museums or monuments.
Great place to call in a pizza to pick up after a long day of touristy activities.
Our favorite taco place in the city! Their mezcal margarita is Holly's go to!
Absolutely delicious Afghan food that is a must try in our neighborhood.
This will be your “classic” DC meal right by the White House.
A delicious sit down Italian restaurant in classic Georgetown fashion.
A great beer garden and one of my first places to go with Teresa when I moved to town.
DC is known for their bottomless brunch, so if you're wanting to experience bottomless mimosas and Balkan cuisine this is the place for you.
All of the Smithsonian museums are free and are absolutely amazing. Please see as many as you can and take your time to take it all in.
Our zoo is also run by the Smithsonian and free. It’s an amazing zoo, and hopefully we will have the pandas back by June.
Our baseball team has an amazing stadium with views of the monuments if you’d like to see a game and they’re in town.
Jazz in the garden is such a fun event, you'll have to look to get tickets in advance, but it is definitely worth it!
Great area to grab lunch or a picnic or try and get a small hike in. They also have a museum if you would like to see that.
If you would like to see where Reece and I got engaged the National Cathedral's gardens are beautiful this time of year and they have an adorable coffee shop to take in the views.
If this is your first time in DC I recommend trying to see all of the monuments and museums through a hop on and off bus that goes throughout the city. This is the link to one of the more popular options, but there are plenty to choose from.
