About this restaurant

  • Romantic
  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for outdoor dining
A most charming dining spot, the Old Angler's Inn has been immortalized in countless Washington D.C. novels as a romantic winter getaway, sitting before the fireplace and perusing the menu. It is equally glorious in the summer when the main action moves to the incomparable terrace.

    Despite the rain we drove over to Maryland for lunch @ Old Anglers' Inn. The COVID19 pandemic was evident as we were 2 of the only 5 customers. I drowned my sorrow in 2 glasses of Viognier & we shared a feta, olive, tomato, red pepper, toast appetizer. Barry had their version of a wedge salad while I enjoyed the pea soup. His entrée was the Angler cheeseburger topped w/ seared foie gras & egg (with fries that were actually crispy!) I chose a BLTC on sourdough w/ crispy fries (most went uneaten because I was already full). But we also indulged in dessert: chocolate terrine & crème brulee. The cappuccino washed it all down. Our waiter was excellent & the sun came out as we left. We will return when the patio opens & the flowers are in bloom.

    Beautifully prepared and tasty dinners impeccably served in a magical ambiance of lights and fireplaces. Why else would so many people forego the beautiful old building nestled in trees to eat outside in the winter? To say it’s romantic is an understatement.

    This is our go-to place to spend our Anniversary, and we’re always quite happy with our meal and experience in general. We opted to enjoy our meal outdoors near the fire pit and to listen to the live music. I’m sure if we lived a bit close we’d come more often because the back of the restaurant is quite casual. The Old Angler’s Inn is fun, family-owned place with great food and a lively atmosphere.

    Super cute little place. Food was really good. Only issue I had was we sat right around a corner from where the serves were coming and going. So every time someone turned the corner they ran into my chair.

    Old Angler’s Inn is always reliable for excellent food and service. The setting cannot be best. The rockfish special was superb. The service of our waiter, Erion, typifies the high-class service. Well done.
