Martin's Tavern

4.5

About this business

A Georgetown fixture since the early 1930s, Martin's Tavern leans decisively towards the historical - rather than the trendy - aspect of this neighborhood. The former New York Giants baseball player William G. Martin opened this neighborhood pub in 1933. Today his grandson, Billy Martin runs the family business. Dark wood paneling and touches of hunter green make for an attractive interior. The menu features American and continental classics - steak and seafood as well as pasta served with marinara or alfredo sauces.

We had a Georgetown reunion there yesterday. 9 of us grabbed 2 tables in the back corner room. While cramped, the elders spent the time reminiscing of their college days there back in 1955! "The recipes have changed since 1958!" One of our group members exclaimed. We enjoyed our time, while the management struggled to run the tavern, as their computers were down, and everything ran slow. See ya in 2067!

Man, what an experience. My wife and I just happened to walk in to grab a drink. We both were blown away by how much history was in this building. Within 30 minutes of being there, a TV crew came in and the celebration of JFK 100 yr anniversary began. The owner Billy Martin and Joe the manager treated us like locals. The staff was super friendly and professional. Truly one of my favorite things we did while being in DC. I highly recommend the crab cakes. Thank you to all the staff and management. We will be back. 

Business response:

Thanks Chris! Enjoyed meeting you both and look forward to the next time your in!

We had crab cake appetizer, fish-n-chips, French onion soup and a salad between us; all was great. The house dressing is amazing. Great service and ambiance.
