The Midlands Beer Garden

“Fabulous food, ambiance, service and location. Stumbled on this place walking by and were very happy we did! The smothered ribeye sandwich was amazing and so was the pretzel with cheese/ mustard. Great selection of beer too.”

“Such an amazing beer garden in DC!! Even on a sweltering hot summer day, the cold beer + ample shade in the (very large) outdoor area keeps me enjoying the outdoors. Even on a busy day, there are plenty of tables to choose from. They also have a well ventilated indoor area. In terms of menu variety, the kitchen serves up a good mix of high-quality bar food along with a few unexpected additions such as the Ribeye Gyro which was honestly phenomenal. Drink-wise, there is a large selection of beers to choose from as well as a few non-beer options such as cider. The bar is also well-equipped for some cocktails. Overall, I'd be here all the time if it were more conveniently located. The staff are all very welcoming / friendly and it's a great space to hang with friends, have some drinks, enjoy (unexpectedly amazing) food, and play some games.”

“I met a friend here for drinks the other night, and let’s just say, the beer and atmosphere did not disappoint! The beer was absolutely delicious, and the staff were incredibly helpful. We even had the pleasure of meeting the owner, who was so kind and welcoming. As a bonus, we were given some fun souvenirs and beer cups to take home. I will definitely be returning!”

“Great place to come for a happy hour and spend some time with friends. They have plenty of bruise on draft, and they even have one or two local breweries as well. They don’t brew beer on site, but they have plenty of offerings from other areas. They also offer cocktails, which are really good. The bartenders are really friendly and pretty quick to serve. We ended up getting margaritas and margaritas were pretty well done. The highlight here is the food. They have some excellent Gastropub offerings that you can eat while you’re drinking beer or having cocktails. I also really enjoyed the indoor and outdoor seating. The restaurant has a pretty open front side so the outside seating seemingly transitions to indoor seating as you walk through. Highly recommend if you’re looking to have a happy hour or just some beer with friends”

“The outdoor beer garden is an oasis away from the noise of Georgia Ave. With roll-up garage doors, the inside and outside blend together seamlessly. The spot is great for birthdays (adults or kids), watching sports, or just hanging with friends. With a great beer list on tap and in cans, solid cocktails, and frose, the drinks are spot on. The food varies in quality but tends to be on the stronger side (or just bring in Call Your Mother from next door like we did last weekend and down your bagel with a beer).”
