This property has been a tavern since 1931 — it was rebranded by new owners as the Irish Inn back in 2003. The charming looking, park-adjacent restaurant serves Guinness stroganoff, bangers and mash, and more.

Duffy’s is known in D.C. for its popular wings. But it’s also an Irish bar with an “Irish fusion” section of the menu, which includes beer-battered fish and chips and a corn beef-topped Cobb salad.

Chinatown’s classic Irish mainstay builds its fish and chips with wild-caught North Atlantic cod, and third-generation Vermont butchers prepare its corned beef and sausages. There’s also a brownie topped with Guinness ice cream, and diners can perk up with its popular Irish coffee.

Opened in 1974, the Dubliner is the patriarch of DC’s Irish bar community. Its annual St. Patrick’s Day party prices morning Guinness pours on its age (they’re 46 cents this year from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m.). The reliable hangout recently introduced a newly enclosed sidewalk cafe.

Decorations on the wall here pull from more than 100 years of Irish history. There’s also a separate Irish whiskey-themed bar that opened a few years ago.

This relatively new addition to the D.C. Irish Pub scene is one of the more laid-back, casual options in the Wharf development. The owners also run Samuel Beckett’s Irish Gastro Pub In Arlington.

Planted right on Columbia Pike’s traffic-heavy strip, the Celtic House is known for its deep whiskey selection, Wednesday night trivia, and orders of shepherd’s pie, bangers and mash, and Guinness stew. There’s also a 24-seat outdoor patio.

Walk into this Fairfax institution, and there’s a good chance you’ll find a cluster of Irish musicians jamming in the corner. The menu features dishes lightly fried Scotch eggs and a gravy-smothered Irish stout burger. Irish dishes get discounts on Monday nights. The atmosphere gets rowdier in the basement area, named Jackie O’Shea’s, where George Mason University students party.

Live Irish music is a staple at Murphy’s, which serves dishes like shrimp Killarney, Irish smoked salmon, meat and potato pie, and more.

Ireland natives John Brennan and Billy O’Sullivan purchased this space back in 2004 and outfitted it with historic Irish antiques. The bar now hosts Rugby viewing parties, St. Patrick’s Day events, and pub nights, all while serving up dishes like corned beef and cabbage and Irish egg rolls.
