Was planning a vivisection to this establishment on.a Saturday afternoon to pass some time between events. I got lucky and found a parking spot right in front. Before going in needed ti send a few text messages before going inside. Next thing I know one of the workers is knocking on my passenger window. I had seen him out sweeping so I rolled down my window. He shoves his phone in my window and wanted me to read something but the phone turned black before I could read it. Then he waves his hand like I need to move my car. I check the street parking signs and confirm I'm in a legal parking spot, no restrictions during the time I plan to park. The worker is now talking to another coworker so I get out to ask if there was a problem. He says something but when I ask him to repeat it he acts like he cannot hear me. I turn to get back in my car and someone pulls up in a fancy black car, parks blocking the alley and gets out the car. They ask if I'm leaving and I say no and tell him that I was trying to understand why the employees were trying to tell I could not park where I had. He says there must have been some mistake and goes inside with the workers.
Needless to say I did NOT take my business in there and instead walked up the block and got a wonderful monitor at the Cuban restaurant.
How dare the employee try intimidate a paying customer into moving their car so someone they deem to be more important can park there. Too bad they lost a payinh customer. Will never frequent this location.
Came in stressed, confused and lost! Met Janai and my mood was lifted immediately! She was kind kind, sweet and made me smile.
YIKES. I used to come here a lot for takeout, and it was always good. The good news is, food is still solid. However, the service is literally worthy of zero stars - the hostess was texting when we walked in and just pointed us to a table instead of walking us there. Menus were dirty. Refills were brought around once. Dessert took over 20 minutes to come out. Couldn't recommend it, sorry.
I've tried over time to continue to give them chances to make things right. Today was my absolute worst experience ever. After waiting for over 45 minutes, they've still managed to get my order completely wrong, the order taker behind the take out window looked lost, and there was no sense of urgency from the staff. It was a complete waste of time and effort. In voicing my concerns to the new manager, D.B., he was very apologetic about my concerns. Initially I was done with giving them my business. However, because I truly do want to see them succeed I may give them another chance in the future, provided I see some major improvements in their service and food quality.
Not amazing, but actually pretty good, esp for a little college bar. Waiters are fantastic and trivia on Thursdays is quite good. Beer selection, not bad, food okay. Overall, if you're on campus, it's worth a stop for a beer.
Service was pretty slow, but the food was tasty!
Terrible service even with almost no one in the place. Waiter disappeared and orders took over an hour for burgers and wings. When I asked about the wait he said the kitchen was really backed up from online orders. Orders came out as partial and at different times. We’ve been here before. Never been anywhere near this bad.
Bulldog Tavern is a s#$t hole. Do not waste your time or money here. If I could do 0 stars I would. I went there 3 times. First off, all three times service was abysmal. They take 20-30 min to even get to your order. The food is not worth waiting for. The worst part, on top of that is they "act" like a high class, 5 star establishment. They have idiot students working there who can't take an order or act professionally. You cannot bring food inside from anywhere else on the campus itself. This pertains specifically to a food allergy circumstance where they cannot accommodate for a life threatening food allergy. The manager claimed BS about "you would not be able to do this at any other establishment" as if they are some high class restaurant. Instead, as paying customers (we ordered multiple drinks and food) they could have accommodated the fact our sole guest member could not eat here. The manager took no consideration in the fact I was a Georgetown employee and just kept reciting ridiculous rhetoric that "you can't do this, no one else would let you do this". I have been to hole in the wall places that would either let you bring in outside food, or would be able to accommodate you. Typical pretentious BS from a place that couldn't accommodate a 10 year olds food needs. Do not waste your time.
