Beneath Barrel · Eastern Market
A quiet corner
of a loud city.
Tonight's Pour
The Bit.
Rye · Amaro Nonino · Vanilla Oleo · Mole
The thing you bite down on. Stirred slow, served cold, finished with an orange coin and a long ribbon of peel. My grandfather was a jockey — the whole bar is named for what steadies you.
The Full Menu················The Room
Velvet, candle,
low ceiling.
Green chesterfields, marble tops, a brass chandelier we found in Baltimore. Twenty-eight seats, give or take a stool. Built to feel like somewhere you weren't supposed to find.
Tucked Further Down
The Dispensary.
A small room behind a smaller door. Four walls of whiskey — bourbon, rye, single malt, the rare bottles we don't list out loud.
Pull up a stool, ask what's open, and stay a while.
Cocktails
Stirred slow.
Whiskey
Deep shelf.
Kitchen
