Every time we come here, it feels like home. Flat Iron has a classic Irish pub feel, welcoming atmosphere, and the kind of place where you can sit anywhere and instantly feel comfortable. Beyond being the oldest Irish bar in the city, the food keeps us coming back. They’re known for their wings, and honestly, they might be my favorite in DC. The clam chowder is also outstanding. We always leave full, happy, and looking forward to the next visit.

Service was great. Atmosphere is exactly what we were hoping for in an Irish pub. The 1910 burger was great. House sauce was perfect. The house recipe bottled root beet was the best the kids and I had had. Would have rated food a 5 but the corned beef need to cook longer. It had a good flavor, but was tough. Not pull apart like it should have been. To be fair, we ate at 1 pm, so maybe we just ordered it too early.

Like it. Good vibe. Good food, kool bartender, ask for extra 1000 on the Ruben, it's very good. Skip the iced tea, it was fresh but probably needs stored in a glass container, cannot trust plastic these days. Memorable atmosphere.

Quaint yet busy Irish pub restaurant that my friend and I stopped by before going to a Cavs game. The drink menu is vast and fairly priced, and the food is a decent mix of classic American Gastropub with some Irish/British Isles flourishes. I got a chicken sandwich that was good overall, and was fairly priced for the amount of food. I was especially pleased with the service, from the very friendly bartender who also took our order, to the woman driving the shuttle bus that picked us up halfway to the arena when we decided to walk. They were all very busy with weekend traffic, but were still super helpful and friendly.

Didn't order any food. Had a drink during the Browns game. Great atmosphere! Definitely an Irish pub atmosphere. Highly recommend 💚💯💯
