There is a comfy local restaurant in Alexandria that lies off King Street’s beaten path. Walk north to Queen Street and follow it towards the Potomac. On your right, you will find a warm and cozy watering hole named Bilbo Baggins.
The atmosphere inside is incredibly warm—worn wooden tables complement the fireplace and the delightful demeanor of the wait staff. I would liken the ambiance to that of a ski-lodge. Patrons come in tight knit groups to enjoy each other and an ample selection of wine and beer. Bilbo Baggins boasts a selection of over 150 wines and a number of micro-brewed imports. Personally, I am always drawn to the Belgian Ales-- Chimay, Duvel, and Delirium Nocturnum. They are relatively expensive, but after you taste them and feel them, you will know where that money went.
Bibo Baggins is great for a group of friends, old or new. The atmosphere is not conducive nor does it cater to the local singles scene. It is a cozy place to “catch up” and if the conversation wanes, look no further than the Trivial Pursuit cards stacked in rocks glasses at the bar.
