Old Ebbitt Grill

About

If you love history, you will love the Old Ebbitt Grill, Washington’s oldest saloon. Founded in 1856 as a Boarding House, 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 Grill has been moved several times over it’s history. In 1983, the Old Ebbitt Grill was uprooted one last time when it moved to its current location at 675 15th Street NW to the Beaux-Arts building that was once the old B. F. Keith’s Theater. Bringing its rich history and Victorian decor with it, the “new” Old Ebbitt remains a historic landmark. We can serve up to 50 seated guests and 200 standing.
