More upscale than your traditional pub, RiRa creates a comfortable yet festive ambiance with its Irish-inspired motifs.
One half is a restaurant while the other half is a lively pub. You can always find a decent sized crowd at either side on the weekends and during happy hour.
If good bar food is a priority, RiRa is one of your best bets. A wide variety of appetizers are available even after the restaurant closes on their late night menu.
The bar serves mostly Irish and English beers. Guinness stout is naturally a popular pick. The staff is friendly, but most importantly knowledgeable about the drinks and dishes served.
Live music is one the venue’s claims to fame. Every weekend local and national acts perform classic rock hits with some Irish flair in addition to more traditional music.
RiRa has an additional DC area location in Arlington.
