The Dacha Loft is the Dacha Beer Garden's private event space for private parties and gatherings. In addition to being adjacent to and above the garden, the venue serves as an unusual and magical setting. The Loft, located in northwest D.C.'s thriving Shaw neighborhood, is easily accessible but feels far away, as if you were in your own private enclave of enlightened elegance. Dacha Loft opened in the fall of 2016 with a Supper Club dinner series and events for our "Dacha Regulars," as we like to refer to those who frequent the restaurant. Over the course of the past two years, we've transformed what started out as an idea into a reality. The Loft has grown into a thriving events venue, hosting a wide range of events such as rehearsal dinners and wedding receptions, bridal showers, all-hands team meetings and corporate retreats, video shoots, birthday parties, baby showers, yoga workshops, and other similar occasions.
