Fodor's Expert Review Irish Inn at Glen Echo

This turn-of-the-20th-century inn used to be a biker bar and a brothel. Now it's a cozy, popular destination with a pub and a restaurant, each serving excellent Irish comfort food. Try the bangers and mash, shepherd's pie, or the mustard-encrusted rack of lamb. The pub, which has an attractive selection of Irish whiskey and a relatively affordable menu, stays open until midnight, with live music on Sunday and Monday evenings. Closed Monday lunch.
