Busboys and Poets by Brookland Metro
Great place for lunch and dinner. Open on New Years 2015!!! Very gay friendly who walks in! Great location! It's only a short walk from the Brookland metro On Monroe Street N.E. !!! Next to the new Barns and Noble!
Gay friendly, diverse place to eat.
I love this place. It's good food and pretty cheap (for DC standards). Great place to check out if you are socially aware like many people in DC. Check their website for events related to book signings, musical acts,special speakers and poetry readings all while you are eating. Wide selection of food from around the world with standard American food also. Trendy decor and trendy staff who are politically aware give you an international experience in Washington.
amaaazing place to chill
