Georgetown Large Parties

A dining saloon. An establishment with a “prohibition era” attitude - in fact, we are still celebrating its repeal! And we invite you to celebrate with us. We are always up for a good ol’ time!

What do you have in mind? Business, pleasure, anniversary, reunion, or just rounding up the gang? The beer is cold. The bartender is friendly. The food is fabulous. Let us know what you are interested in hosting and we’ll take care of the rest!

The 1889 Room

The 1889 Room at the original J. Paul’s in Georgetown has become an institution in Washington, D.C. Enjoy private dining in our 1889 Room, located on the 2nd floor of J. Paul’s. Its mahogany walls, wood floors and eclectic style give the room a warm, classy and cozy atmosphere. Long, magnificent windows overlook historic M Street, in the heart of Georgetown. This room is great for all occasions: birthdays, holiday parties, rehearsal dinners, celebrations, business luncheons, cocktail parties, and even televised sporting events. We cater to any event you may be planning and will not only meet your needs, but also surpass them with exceptional service, as well as excellent cuisine.

The 1889 Room can comfortably seat up to 35-40 guests for sit-down dinner and has sufficient space for 50 guests for a stand-up cocktail/passed appetizer party. Parties larger than what can be accommodated in the 1889 Room are welcomed and can be housed semi-privately or privately in the main dining room. Special menus are available and we will work with you to create a tailored menu for you and your guests.
