Beneath the blue-suit, ID-badge aesthetic of Washington DC, sits a rich subculture of all things artistic, innovative, and hip. This part of the District is alive and well in the Northwest neighborhood of Dupont Circle, home to some of DC's most unique shops, galleries, traditions, and of course, food and drink.
Dupont Circle has some of the oldest, most beautiful architecture in the city. The streets are lined with old townhouses, churches and cafes. Among all this history, Dupont has become a go-to for young professionals and recent graduates, making the town a modern nightlife playground.
In the Dupont Circle Food Tour, the area's rich history is merged with its modern innovations in food and drink. Experience the cuisine that fed the aristocrats who first lived here, to the latest spots in ethnic food and trendy bars.
