Brunch at the Tabard Inn feels like stepping into a different era — the kind of cozy, leather-clad, vintage-furnished setting that invites you to linger. The old-world atmosphere is steeped in charm, with mismatched chairs, quiet corners, and a sense of calm that’s hard to...Read More

TLDR: Lodging was quirky and very fun if you enjoy old-house experiences, but the shower and bed needed attention. Also, there were a few full nude "artistic" photography pieces that were unexpected and uneeded. The restaurant has beautiful patio seating and delicious donuts and an egg...Read More

Pear semi freddo was interesting- even though it wasn’t what I was expecting and didn’t hit the spot like I wanted it to. the quality was good so it makes me want to go back and try something else. Signature g&t was very good

Tabard Inn is by no means the fanciest place to stay in DC, but it's got to be one of the most unique and charming, super centrally located in Dupont Circle. ||I loved all the nooks and crannies, the vintage furniture in my room, and...Read More

The dining areas are divine, both inside and in the courtyard, and the food is outstanding. The bar and the food merit a visit on their own. ||My room was a B-, comfortable but, like much of the interior, a bit faded. ...Read More

My girlfriend and I stayed at the Tabard Inn three different times over the course of this past summer (two one-night stays plus a two-nighter. At ± $120/night, it’s a solid value. We will definitely be back. Caveat. If your preference is for...Read More

Restaurant in the inn was spectacular. The manager came and brought us some chocolate truffles and a liquor after our meal, it was nice and thoughtful! The setting and ambiance of the patio was really great as well!

An awesome hotel with art and great furnishings! The rooms are all different, and have a ton of character. Everything feels so real-the opposite of cookie cutter chains! We love the ambience, the people who work here and the food!

I was hoping this place would be haunted but alas I got stuck with one of the most quaint, quirky and memorable experiences the DC hotel circuit has to offer. Bare bones type of joint but the character itself makes up for it beyond imagination....Read More

Love the atmosphere of this place and love jazz night, but the real star of the show here is the service. We had a rather interesting happy hour with a clearly mentally deranged individual eating at a table over. Let’s just say she fell out...Read More

The Tabard Inn has the most charming bar and restaurant in DC. In a world of bland, corporate, soul-sucking Marriotts and Hiltons, the Tabard stands apart. My room was tiny but comfortable. However—and it pains me to say this—there is …

I’ve been staying at the Tabard Inn for 30 years. Always my favorite in DC. Approaching 200 stays and it still feels like home away from home. Many thanks to all the team.

Historic inn. Very cute and quaint. The colonial building is superb. The location is between DuPont circle and the 14th Street bustling area, both a 5 min walk, yet in a quiet street. The restaurant is superb
