Washington DC is a hub for American politics and history. Attracting as many school field trips as it does travelers the district offers a peek into the country’s democratic origin. There are plenty of free museums to take advantage of but the real draw here is the memorials and monuments dedicated to great American leaders. Spend some contemplative time at the Reflecting Pool within the National Mall, among the most patriotic places in the country.

We had come here previously just for drinks before dinner elsewhere. It was beautiful in Georgetown so we came to try the delicious burgers. We were not disappointed! Most toppings are included, but not cheese. Also, fries are not included. We split a side of sweet potato fries, that were very good. Bar service was excellent and friendly. We left happy and full.

Situated on the edge of Georgetown University's campus, The Tombs is a neighborhood restaurant by day and a popular gathering place for Georgetown students by night. Along with 1789, The Tombs is built in a Federal-style townhouse dating from the mid-1800s. When Georgetown alumnus Richard McCooey founded The Tombs in 1962, he named it after a mention in T.S. Eliot's poem "Bustopher Jones: The Cat About Town." Whether it's students watching a Hoya basketball game, Georgetown alumni sharing a pitcher of lager or neighbors enjoying Sunday brunch after visiting Holy Trinity Church, Tombs traditions run deep.
The Tombs hasn't changed much since I went there in the 1980s - I consider this a positive! It is almost always busy, but if you don't mind sitting at the bar it's generally quicker than the queue for tables. We went for brunch and had French onion soup, salad and steak and eggs. All very good. It's definitely Georgetown-themed, but I don't find it obnoxious. The oars over the fireplace are distinctive and if you know what the Dad Vail is, pretty impressive. By the way, a cool way to get there (and to ready yourself for brunch!) is up the "Exorcist Steps"!
