Cafe Milano is one of DCs most well established Italian restaurants. A favourite for Washington insiders who socialize here in its relative privacy. The food is excellent, the wine list outstanding and the service is first-class.

Another iconic Georgetown dining experience which is off the normal map of options you might think or hear about. This is a gem of a place which can only be said to be as unique as Georgetown itself.

Drinks & Nightlife
Martin's is perhaps Georgetown's most famous historic bar. You'll often bump into Washington's elite. The food is traditional pub-fare, but consistent and pleasant. If you're looking for a fun bar or casual dining experience nearby, I'd recommend Martin's.

This is truly a local's bar and one which is only known to a few who have either attended Georgetown University or lived here for long enough to discover it. Catering to the University crowd, this bar is fun and vibrant on any night of the week. A short walk from the house it can be combined with dinner at the 1789 restaurant above for a genuinely quixotic Georgetown experience!

Sightseeing
If there is only one Memorial you visit while you're here, I cannot stress the importance of it being this one. You can walk to it from the house or rent a bike and get there very comfortably along the riverfront without the need to set foot into a motorized vehicle. This iconoic Memorial is incredible. Try getting up early one morning and visiting it at Sunrise. You'll be in for an amazing experience.
