ABOUT Located in DC’s renowned Penn Quarter district, Clyde’s of Gallery Place is an opulent homage to Washington and American sporting. This two-story Grand Victorian saloon greets you with a breath-taking staircase and a palatial, museum-like experience complete with sporting sculpture, collectible prints and original works of art featuring sports legends and Washington’s own storied history. OUR FOOD Our Commitment to Better began decades ago when we chose to bypass traditional commercial produce routes in favor of locally grown fruits and vegetables. Establishing relationships with local farmers, Clyde’s Restaurant Group was farm-to-table before it was a term. Not only does this provide fresher ingredients for our chefs and guests, but we consider it part of our ongoing collaboration with the local economy to design dining experiences that support the region’s growth. Our chefs proudly support local watermen of the nearby Chesapeake Bay and other east coast fisheries. Our seasonal menus showcase the true “bounty of the sea.” In addition to our local, farm-grown produce and seafood, we proudly serve Linz Hertitage Angus, Keystone Farms Chicken, and Leidy’s Premium Duroc Pork. Thank you for considering Clyde’s of Gallery Place for your upcoming event. Our sincere belief is that great dining begins with fresh ingredients, friendly people, and an unforgettable atmosphere. Our Executive Chef and Event Team are here to help you create that experience
