We were worried it would be full as there were no reservations available, but there was plenty of room at the bar. It must have been fate because we met John the bartender who was absolutely phenomenal. Totally personable and could tell he really cared about people. Everyone that came in knew him and he knew them back. It was so cool to see. Food was fresh and very delicious. Building was historic and we left feeling so full and happy. We were visiting from out of town but will def be back!"

We chose Sqwires, It had been a while since we had been at Sqwires and we enjoyed it. This visit was a great experience. The menu does have it's favorite traditional menu items. The pot pie and the Salmon dish. Both delicious and filling. Add a good wine or beer of your choice and you are eating good in Lafayette Square. The atmosphere is fantastic. Sqwires was an old wire factory. They converted the furnace that heated and formed the wire into a fireplace. Look around even some of the light fixtures are converted tools or containers as light fixtures. We came to eat. The Pot pie is a meal in itself. A stew with Chicken, new potatoes, herbs and veggies topped with a puff pastry. Our server was very attentive to our needs. He was courteous and professional. I recommend SqWires restaurant. Enjoy the atmosphere and gastro experience."

The food was amazing too. My friends were all raving about the delicious brunch food and great service, and insisted we return here in the future for another ladies' brunch. It's always a good feeling when I organize a dinner or brunch at a restaurant for a big group, and the restaurant doesn't embarrass me in front of my friends and delivers on all points... So thank you!!"
