About this place Number Nine

Number Nine is a gay bar at 1435 P Street NW, between Dupont Circle and Logan Circle. The ground floor is a lounge bar where people come for after-work drinks. Upstairs is a second room with music videos and DJs, which takes over later in the evening and on weekends. Most of the crowd are local gay men, many of whom live in the surrounding blocks. Number Nine is best known for its happy hour, which has long offered two-for-one drinks and fills the bar early in the evening. It's within walking distance of the other bars around 17th Street and 14th Street, so it's an easy first stop for a night out. We have no hours on file, so check before you go.

Cool spot with one of my fav bartenders but needs more r&b. Especially on Sundays

Your bartenders are some of the rudest bartenders I have come across in a while. And it isn't just one. It is as if that is the culture here. Great atmosphere and clientele. But Wow, that bar staff. Look, I am not a hater. I want nothing but success for anyone in our community. But please do better.

Such a cute spot, with great vibes. The drinks taste good, I’m awkward and quiet but the bartenders got me talking up a storm. Shame I live in Philly because I would come here all the time

Love the vibe. Music is nice not too loud and people can still have a decent conversation. Drinks are good and excellent. Ample seating for everyone.

My favorite place to go in DC. Downstairs is chill vibes where you can actually speak and be heard. I love downstairs because upstairs is kind of like a club scene, which I loved when I was in my 20s. Bartenders and staff are very friendly and restrooms can be crowded but they’re clean! Very classy place And I appreciate the two separate floors with the different vibes!
