Yes, the peppery, dry-aged burger is as wonderful as everyone and their mother says it is. @eebeescornerbar in Shaw also excels at hospitality, a detail driven home by the owner, Emily Brown, in every interaction.

What beer did you love drinking over the past twelve months?

For a decade, that’s the question I’ve asked the people who make, buy, and curate my favorite beers.

I love when good planning meets great execution. This has been something on my mind for a while and @eebeescornerbarwas a great example for it. Shaw couldn’t be luckier.

The debut venture from the beer director behind Green Zone and the ever-expanding Andy’s Pizza empire, Eebee’s caters to off-shift industry workers with a kitchen that’s open until 2am. It's a bar first and foremost, but the food is no afterthought.

It’s been a while since I’ve seen a bar get such a strong media push upon opening. Multiple articles, viral videos popping up on my Instagram feed and tweets about how this place rules. I’m usually a little skeptical of new places that are meant to capture an old vibe - there are plenty of older bars in DC that no doubt inspired this place that never get any love.

What’s the verdict, is this place as good as my algorithm is suggesting? Worth a visit now or wait until the hype dies down?

🍔🍺 Eebee’s Corner Bar Opens in Shaw With Buzz-Worthy Burger! Shaw’s newest neighborhood bar Eebee’s Corner Bar opened last weekend at 1840 6th Street NW (former Quattro/Bistro Bohem space) and is already generating serious buzz for its burger and beer program.

Shaw: Eebee’s Corner Bar opened earlier this month, but its well executed burger, beer list, and right-at-home feels already have the tight knit Northwest neighborhood’s full attention. Eebee’s represents a years-long culmination of meticulous thought and effort from its first-time owner and beer aficionado Emily Brown.

Emily Brown always dreamed of opening a place where the bartender greets you by name, and the regulars down the block bring a small Christmas present to the staff who take care of them. The kind of place you go to gossip with a friend over drinks—then discover, oh hey, this food is really great too. And maybe you stick around and get to know someone new.
