Penn Quarter Sports Tavern Has Caps Spirit
The Washington Capitals can put away the Montreal Canadiens tonight with a victory at the Bell Centre in Montreal and advance to the next round of the National Hockey League playoffs. We’re not so sure that three one goal games with two of them going into overtime is what we had in mind from a series that matches the President’s Cup winner with a team that barely made the playoffs. But, it seems like Ovechkin now has his shooting stick back after leaving it behind in the first game against the Habs – this is a good sign.
We walked by the Penn Quarter Sports Tavern (639 Indiana Ave NW) yesterday and see that they have the hometown spirit by flying the red Caps flag proudly. We’ve been in the PQST on and off since they opened in October of 2007 and can say that they’ve made some nice improvements in the sports bar experience since their opening like adding lots of big screen TVs (including a few that face the covered, heated seating area) and incorporating outdoor seating (see photo above). They improved their menu and their online presence has been bettered too by an improved website and sponsoring Joe Beninati’s blog (play-by-play announcer on Comcast SportsNet).
All we can say for today is “Let’s go Caps!”

PQST is my place to go to watch the Caps away games and to pregame before heading up to Verizon Center. The place has been especially rockin’ with Caps fans during the playoffs. The outdoor seating (covered and patio) offer views of the outdoor TVs. It’s a fun place and the food is good. You can’t beat sitting outside watching a Caps game, eating their awesome wings, and having a tasty Blue Moon while the weather is nice. The staff are awesome! They have been through some menu changes and it’s all for the good. My favs are the cheesesteak, sunny side up burger, and their wings.
