Brookland’s best – your Brookland Washington, D.C., neighborhood guide

Set just four miles North of the United States Capitol sits Brookland, a Washington, D.C. neighborhood as well-connected as its inhabitants. Embracing city life is the ethos here. The tree-lined streets set the tone for a restful retreat, but don’t be fooled. Urban living and its limitless energy quite literally is around the corner. Steps away from Monroe Street Market to Metro, with stop after stop of Washington D.C.’s best. One moment you’ll be taking in the feeling of a well-established neighborhood and the next joining the contagious beats and movements of a steel drum performance outside the Dance Place.

Tasteful dining.

Taste your way around Brookland and you’ll see sophisticated, international flavors coming together and making themselves at home. From French cuisine with a very Southern accent at Primrose to another local jaunt serving up comfort food at Brookland’s Finest, you’ll never run out of ways to satiate your appetite. Make space for life’s surprises and always come hungry.

Slow your roll.

Sometimes that’s all you need. To slow down and let your senses take over. Eight miles will do just that on the Metropolitan Branch Trail. Connecting from Union Station in Washington, D.C. all the way to Silver Spring, Maryland, this is the path of least resistance. Traveling through historic, Washington, D.C. neighborhoods, past coffee shops at your leisure or connecting you to eight Metro stops along the way during the weekday grind. For work or play, the Metropolitan Branch Trail serves Brookland and beyond. A favorite to over 1,500 Washingtonians a day, keeping you closely connected to your city.

Pout over and over.

Move over, Napa. Our flights of fancy are a little more down to earth. Washington, D.C. has got an edge of the American Craft Beer Scene. With 25 local beers on tap, you can smell, swirl, sip to your palette’s delight, but above all else, you can kick back at Brookland Pint. By the glass or the growler, the drinks pair well with the laid-back cuisine. Plus, the newly renovated patio makes this neighbor one to know.

Walk this way.

It communicates through its beauty. Capturing a moment in time, social ideas, and in this political hub of ours, it expresses political or social commentary in a way that is peaceful. Take a stroll through Art’s Walk, a pedestrian promenade of 27 maker studios representing local and independent artists. Getting creative to upcycle bicycle trash to crafting handbags made from reclaimed, salvaged leather. From paintings to posters and pendants, there is a little something for everyone’s eye here.

Truffle. Popcorn.

Even movie theater popcorn gets a gourmet upgrade in Brookland. The main feature is a brand-new Alamo Drafthouse, with nine auditoriums, a Hall of Presidents lobby featuring cinema’s greatest movie presidents, The Highbinder Spy Bar and, you guessed it, gourmet food and drinks served directly to your comfy, leather recliner chair. From creative cocktails and milkshakes to truffle popcorn or a Royale with cheese, this is how Washington, D.C. goes to the movies.

Metro chic.

It’s the greatest differentiator and the lifeblood of The District. To be able to expand your own horizons right down the line.
