About this place Larry's Lounge

Larry's Lounge is a small, low-key gay bar on 18th Street NW, on the stretch between Dupont Circle and Adams Morgan. People come here for a drink and a conversation more than for dancing. The patio is dog-friendly, and on warm evenings it's the main reason regulars show up. Listed hours are from 2pm until 2am, and until 3am on Fridays and Saturdays, so it works for an afternoon drink as well as a nightcap. The bigger clubs and busier bars of Dupont and U Street are a short walk away if you want more noise later.

A small, charming bar with an outdoor terrace. The guests all seem to know and like each other. It's lovely to see how friendly and welcoming everyone is.
