Wet Dog Tavern

Great neighborhood bar with easygoing staff. It has a strong community vibe where customers know one another and bring their dogs to play. Suitable for special events like holiday parties, birthday gatherings, key sporting event watches, etc. Indoor and outdoor spaces are available, good for a sunny day or rainy day if you at least want to get out of the house.

Rude customer service especially towards Asians. They would be friendly to other guests then suddenly rude and bossy for no reasons to us. It was the weirdest interaction I’ve ever had. First of all they don’t pick up phone. Also, I left a bag and tried to speak to the bartender (by saying “HI”) but he was busy so I waited. When I finally got his attention I said “Sorry sir, I left my bag..” Before I finish he demanded “first you have to say hi and how are you, then you ask me a question” which I thought was so bossy but I proceeded to say “sorry”. He repeated that I had to say “hi how are you” while staring at me while I felt very confused and uncomfortable. I told him I did say hi and he said he didn’t hear it. I said “that’s all I have to say” because I believe I was not the one being rude plus I am a middle age woman, not a child. He continued to *stare* at me in a very rude way and finally gave me my bag back. I said thank you and he never responded. It is normal having a bad day at work but please be professional and dont *the only Asian customer in the room*. Respect is earned and it goes both ways.

Hands down my favorite bar in DC. Dogs allowed to roam as long as leashed. Taco truck there. Superrrrr chill. Whats not to love

Cool open spaced bar with a great food truck on site. It is called el diablito.
