Bottega Veneta Madison Avenue 2014 Christmas Windows Our Coverage Sponsored by Martin's Tavern of Georgetown Est. 1933
Established in 1933, Martin's Tavern is one of Washington DC’s
most historic family-owned enterprises. For 80 years, Martin’s Tavern has been
a renowned fixture in the mid-Atlantic and a must-visit establishment in
historic Georgetown. In the late 1890's, William S. Martin traveled from
Galway, Ireland to America. Forty years later, he and his son, William G.
Martin, the current Billy's grandfather, opened Martin’s Tavern on the corner
of Wisconsin Avenue and N Street NW which is run today by our friend, William
A. Martin Jr. You can call him Billy! From sitting Presidents and media icons,
to city residents and worldly travelers, Martin’s Tavern is a welcoming home to
the many who have long embraced its warm atmosphere. Its quintessentially
classic American fare has delighted discriminating palates for decades from the
Oakwood Atlantic Smoked Salmon to the Filet Mignon to whatever your little
heart desires from the convincing menu. Every President from Truman to George
W. Bush has happily dined at Martin's Tavern, and you can see the delicious
culinary choices preferred by each in our review: Martin's Tavern is Highly
Recommended by Whom You Know:
The President’s favorite booths, The Proposal Booth of Jack and
Jackie Kennedy, Mickey Mantle in The Dugout Room, George W. Bush and family at
Table 12 are just a few of the iconic stories. Fourth generation owner Billy
Martin, Jr. continues the tradition of Washington’s oldest family owned
restaurant and Georgetown landmark.
