The Old Ebbitt Grill, Washington's oldest saloon founded in 1856, is considered one of the city’s most iconic restaurants, from tourists taking pictures, to politicians making deals, there is something for everyone here. The Ebbitt guest list read like a Who's Who of American History. President McKinley is said to have lived there during his tenure in Congress, and Presidents Ulysses S. Grant, Andrew Johnson, Grover Cleveland, Theodore Roosevelt and Warren Harding supposedly refreshed themselves at its stand-around bar
The June 15th dinner will be a seasonal dinner with food purveyed from our surrounding area with wines carefully selected by the wine committee. The dinner will give everyone an opportunity to ease back to normal dining, while keeping in mind some safety protocols. This includes plated Oysters in lieu of the traditional Hors d’oeuvres starting at 6.30pm in open area called the Atrium.
