I can't wait until baseball and soccer season start so that they hopefully get more business over here. I had both of their stouts and the higher alcohol one was marvelous. The bartender was very accurate in her description of how it coats your mouth and really sticks with you. The lower alcohol stout went down, really smooth and was easy to drink. If I had stayed longer, I probably would've got a flight to taste a few other ones. I really hope that they get food other than the burger place that's there because there's only three burgers and none of them are vegan or vegetarian. The burger place also does not have a large amount of side items for people to snack on and from what I gauge from the menu of Atlas, they don't appear to have any food items. For such a large dining room area I would expect there to be more options and since there aren't really a lot of restaurants in Anacostia, I really hope that they add food to the menu somehow. Otherwise you'll have to go across the bridge to get food if you don't want a non-vegetarian burger. From my time here in DC this will be their third location. I think it suits them better than the Ivy city location and I hope that people in Ward eight as well as people visiting the stadiums will stop past Atlas

They specialize in beer and are one of the few places that allow doggies indoors. They also have an outdoor lot where they invite food trucks to come serve food! Parking is self parking on the street. The place was packed, but after waiting a few minutes we got a table. I liked the accents of wood everywhere and how people left notes written on napkins in the drawers of the antique furniture. For drinks, I tried the Love, Umma, which was a Korean beer that was developed by the owner, who is Korean and I loved the notes of ginseng and 누룽지 in it. It was light but also had a unique flavor. If you're not a beer person, they have great cocktails, like their Hemingway, which was a lovely fruity drink.

My date found this gem on TikTok and it became the second stop on my birthday celebration. We left Daru and a short drive later we were on the hunt. Hidden in an alley behind Henceforth we stopped to ask someone working at a nearby spot for directions. We found the alley, spotted the blue light, and rang the bell. The door opened and we were whisked inside. Up the stairs a hallway lined with smaller parlor style rooms set the tone before we even reached the bar. Velvet fabric draped the ceiling over a grand bar decked out with bottles and dim lighting. Bar seating up front and high top tables arranged along the wall. We had not even ordered yet and the atmosphere had already delivered. To our surprise our escort to our seats was also one of the bartenders. Around 10pm there was only one other gentleman at the bar. No drink menu so we went with a staple old fashioned. Watching the bartender chisel ice and lower it into the glass with with a bar spoon was a talent worth watching. It was so memorable it made me want to chisel ice myself. The old fashioned was great. The no photography rule was listed and we followed it without question. No one around us had their phones out taking pictures and my date and I were not about to be the ones to break the code. A party of women came in looking incredible, clearly there to celebrate something special. Black girl magic was fully in the building!! The couple seated at the high top to our right came in after us and we quickly became their guides. They lucked up on this place as first timers just like us and we balanced the experience together comparing drinks and sharing what we had learned. That kind of spontaneous connection is always the best part of a new space. And that is the honest note worth sharing. The bartender was clearly more in tune with the creation of drinks than creating an experience for guests. For a new visitor on a birthday celebration that gap was felt. We never even got to share what we were celebrating. It may have been an off night, but we can see how given the right inviting bartender those in the space would engage more, which feels like exactly the vibe they are going for. For a cocktail experience that elevates the night or a chance to extend it somewhere unexpected this place delivers. We would certainly go back with a group and a more inviting bartender to show us the ropes. Next time we may start at the Henceforth before coming over. The Unforgiving Minute is a gathering place worth coming back to.

The location right up against the Anacostia and across the road from Nats Park is really great. It's a breezy spot, with huge opened walls, which must be great when it's hot, but was dang chilly this evening. We ate just the pretzel and enjoyed the quality mustard and the very good beer cheese. The pretzel itself leaned a bit oily, but we scarfed it down and enjoyed it. Service was pretty good with friendly and helpful bartenders. With Champions League on the TV our seats at the bar were perfect. She Said: I think He summed it up perfectly! Potty Points: 4/5 plenty of stalls, clean enough especially considering the traffic, but I would have liked some paper towels since we came in from a downpour and I was drenched and needed to towel off a little bit.

We ordered the Mac and cheese bites but they did not have any Mac.. it was just fried cut up mozzarella sticks. Which is great.. if that's what it was called on the menu. We also ordered a fried chicken sandwich and a pub burger. The chicken sandwich was fine. The pub burger was ... meh. The pretzel bun they brought out was over toasted and looked like it was pretty dry before that. Like it was HARD. No one came to check on us after the food arrived so I had to take my plate to the check out desk to address the issue. Cait took care of it right away; I asked for just a new bun - I don't mind swapping it out myself. But in the end the burger was still just meh. Almost forgot to mention the fries .. not great. They were salted well but the fries themselves were almost chewy. When we checked out, Cait said apologized and mentioned some staffing issues. She offered to get in touch with some sort of compensation but didn't offer to waive our one beer. We left paying full price for everything. Again, fine spot if you just wanted to hang out and drink beer.
