Big Hunt

Washington, DC


If you just said the name of this bar and smiled a little inner smile (or turned red), well, that’s kind of the point. The irreverence is carried on inside via three floors of general tomfoolery, including one of the city’s better rooftop patios and some arcade games. For a dive bar, Big Hunt has several surprisingly fine small-batch beers on tap.

Live comedy shows take place Wednesday through Saturday in the basement bar.
