Thursday night Karaoke was a blast! Convenient location just up from the U street metro stop. Multilevel. Staff were great!
![5]( "Recensione")
Hands down my all time favorite dive-bar in DC, and I say that with tons of love and respect. There is no pretension here, and all are welcome, you won’t go broke drinking, you can bring your to-go food, and there’s always something fun to do!
Aside from their massive, excellent cover patio that lets you watch all the fun of U St, there are also two bars inside. Downstairs is where all the regulars begin and end their night, where the owners are just as likely to be behind the bar as the employees.
Upstairs they hold events almost every night of the week - from comedy, to trivia, to bands, to plays. And of course Kostume Karaoke every Thursday, which is a crazy night of doing shots with the KJs on your birthday, and meeting crazy strangers wearing tiaras or judo gis (provided by the karaoke hosts) to sing!
The walls tell the history of the bar, especially behind the bar and in the bathrooms. But the bartenders and regulars will tell you just as easily themselves - and what a long crazy history it’s been! Ask them about when the car crashed through the window, or the Caps won the Cup, or the neighbors almost sent it all crashing down during an ill-fated renovation.
This is no a fancy dress up joint - although no one thinks twice if you walk in looking your best. You come here to be comfortable, to have well poured, affordable drinks, to have the bartenders become your besties, to meet your new best friends just chilling at the bar.
Niel the bartender made it clear that my safety mattered more to him than profit - a rarity in DC. I tried to tip him extra but he literally would not let me. This is my favorite bar in DC and you won't see me missing out on a chance to be here any time soon.
Exceptionally good! Best bar and bartender in town! Lots of different drinks: many beers (local and international) and a lot of really good whiskey's
We came there for a quick drink but it was so nice we stayed really long! Super friendly owner and always up for nice chat!
I recommend this bar to everyone!!!
Solly’s is a perfect two-story dive bar. Memorabilia galore, cheap whiskey, and great service. There’s an ATM inside, Big Buck Hunter arcade game in the corner, and always amazing music playing. Ask for Antoine when you arrive.

Fantastic and consistent U st bar with awesome staff, drink specials, and food!
Solly's is a great place for comedy, both to watch and perform. Everytime I have been there, The Comedy Attic has been packed. This makes sense as the comics are good and the drinks are priced well. It is in a cool area of DC with a great vibe and diverse area so there is lots to do after the show, including hitting the bar downstairs.
A great dive bar! Friendly bartender, good prices and most importantly ice cold beer! Stayed in the neighbourhood during a recent trip to DC and come to Solly’s twice. Would recommend!
Cheap drinks, but I do miss the BBQ. Dope chill spot.
If you're looking to tour the real of D.C. and U street, Solly's is definitely a stop you need to make. Real, unique, and a hidden gem that let's you escape the world but still watch it through a windowed nook with beer
