Our vine-covered patios and indoor dining places are ideal for a variety of intimate gatherings. Big Bear Cafe is located in the middle of Washington, DC, in a quiet residential neighborhood. It's a 120-year-old Victorian commercial townhouse with cobblestone patios, floral gardens, trees, and old native grape vines surrounding it. Big Bear Cafe is a local cafe, coffeeshop, and restaurant with a long tradition of award-winning chefs, outstanding food, and friendly service. The indoor eating room features a full-service classic bar, exposed brick and plaster walls, and rough-hewn hardwood tables made from the original 120-year-old Big Bear Market's recovered beams. The area is candle-lit at night, and tables are set up for large communal table dining or individual dining. Alternatively, the space could be freed for an open-floor reception. The outside garden patio can be used in conjunction with the internal space to provide an additional outdoor space (such as an outdoor dining space, reception drinking area, outdoor fire pit seating area, presentation space, or other special activity). The second level has wood-paneled walls, a wood fireplace, and exposed brick walls, making it a great rustic environment. This space is ideal for cocktail events or seated group dinners. Big Bear Cafe is an amazing urban getaway for an intimate garden wedding, evening supper, or celebration. Award-winning chefs, ingredient-driven farm-focused cuisine, and pleasant professional service staff are all part of our history. A grapevine canopy hangs above the outside garden patio. The herb gardens encircle the room, creating a barrier between it and the outside world. Wedding ceremonies can be held on the terrace, with an interior reception to follow. Dinner can also be served outside under the grape vines, with separate reception and meeting facilities indoors, or on a little patio off to the side.

You and your guests will be formally welcomed by the fieldstone front of the mansion, which is located at the top of a circular driveway. The building has a large, well-lit parking area in the back. Since there are no stairs to navigate, everyone may easily access the side entrance. As visitors arrive, they are shielded from adverse weather by the covered entrance path. Our inviting lounge, complete with a fireplace and built-in bar, is the perfect place to enjoy a cocktail and show off photos. Groups can eat and dance together in the main ballroom, which can accommodate up to 200 people with partial seating and 160 people fully seated. The Rock Creek Mansion ballroom, with its chandeliers, sconces, and black-and-white tiled floor, is perfect for both formal occasions and informal gatherings. Windows offer a sunny view of the grounds during the day, and in the evenings, candles and dimmer lighting transform the ballroom into a festive, romantic party space. On our brand-new private patio, your visitors can go outside and take in the stars, the clean air, and the views of our large lawn. You won't believe you're in Bethesda's downtown!
