The 3,000-square-foot patio is adorned with string lights, lanterns, and creeping ivy, surrounding a vintage greenhouse that adds to the charm.

The menu offers Eastern Shore-inspired elevated backyard fare, including smoked ribs, steak sandwiches with Utz chips, and bratwurst platters. The bar program emphasizes local beers, craft cocktails, and a full premium bar, with signature 'Adult Juice Boxes' and refreshing draft lavender lemonades. Recognized as one of the '33 Best Bars in Washington, DC,' Calico is perfect for large group gatherings, spirited happy hours, casual dates, and playful seasonal events.
