About Kelly’s Irish Times

Kelly’s Irish Times shares an F Street address with The Dubliner, but its experience leans more heavily on layers of history and collected objects. The pub says it has served Capitol Hill since 1978 and explains that the first-responder patches covering its walls were gifts from customers and visitors. The collection gives a short visit something to look at beyond the menu and bar.

The offer combines draft beer, whiskey, pub food, and a jukebox that the business highlights as part of its character. Its website lists fish and chips and corned beef and cabbage among the classics, and advertises free Thursday comedy shows in the basement Club Swerve. Reviews for this location mention its lively atmosphere and proximity to Union Station, alongside observations about noise; choose it according to whether you want conversation or a livelier night.

The two F Street pubs are close to the station and within an easy walk of each other, so visitors can compare them without planning a long route. Kelly’s publishes weekly hours and social accounts through its official website. For a group meal or event night, check the schedule and leave time for the walk from Metro or the rail station.

In brief

Capitol Hill pub operating since 1978, known for its collection of first-responder patches, beer list, pub food, jukebox, and event space.
