POV Lounge

About

Once you're ready to see and be seen, ascend to W Washington D.C.'s iconic rooftop bar and lounge, POV. Here, your fashion statement is just as meaningful as your political one, so dress to impress and break through the red tape of D.C. with views of the White House normally reserved for those elected to office. POV's design is inspired by three contextual insights local to Washington, D.C., social, physical and historical, which are in turn reflected through its design details. Our rooftop lounge features various seating zones, ranging from communal tables to VIP banquettes. No matter which side of the aisle you're on, you'll enjoy sipping a drink from the bar and experiencing POV's unique programming, which is centered on its passion points of Music, Fashion, Design and Cocktail Culture.

One of the best views of dc! They also renovated their hotel and revamped their cocktail menu so each cocktail is unique in its own way. Definitely a place to bring a friend if they’re visiting for the weekend.

POV, atop the W Hotel, has a fantastic view over the White House. It doesn't rest on those laurels though -- it has a lineup of excellent cocktails and dishes. I heard on good authority that it has one of DC's best burgers so checked out their signature Big Belly, which is a double patty with pork loin as a topping. The topping was great, but the bun was way too big and dry -- it's almost a 1:1 bread-to-everything-else ratio. The burger patties were a bit overcooked and also a bit dry, but presumably this is fixable in the kitchen. Only the bun took away a star. A $26 burger surely has enough margin for POV to invest in better bread.
