Board Room

Board Room is a bar and lounge at 1737 Connecticut Ave NW, just north of Dupont Circle. Google describes a casual hangout with beer, wine and cocktails, pub food and vintage board games.

It holds a 4.4-star Google rating across about 1,450 reviews. Board games dominate the review topics, followed by happy hour, bringing your own food, chess and game rentals. Recent reviewers say games are free before 7 PM and carry a small rental fee after that, and describe it as a fun, loud spot for dates and groups. A couple of recent reviews complain of a rude bartender and no table service.

It opens at 4 PM on weekdays and noon on weekends, staying open until 2 AM Sunday through Thursday and 3 AM on Fridays and Saturdays. Google lists a wheelchair-accessible entrance and restroom.
