A town you'll never forget!
From the romantic to the vibrant and exciting feelings, this town provides smart and interesting memories for anyone who visits. From eclectic restaurants, historic buildings, gardens, weeping willow-lined canal paths, renown universities, and great places to shop, this town will stick in your memory forever. Start at the Key Bridge end of Avenue 'M' heading East and visit Georgetown University and the famous 1789 Restaurant (historic and classy $$$$); ease back down to Avenue M and check out the canal (especially when full); stop by the Sea Catch Restaurant right on the Canal then walk back up to the avenue and have a breakfast or pick up some vegetables/fruits at Dean & Deluca Market. Stop at any of the clothing stores on either side of the avenue and head down to Wisconsin Avenue off of Ave M and grab some lunch at a bowling lane or bocci alley at Pinstripes. Close by are a beautiful mall, bookstores and the eclectic Filomena restaurant whose Sunday brunches are famously different. After lunch grab a Garden tour through Georgetown Garden Club 202-965-1950. Wrap the day up (if you can still stand) art the La Chaumiere French restaurant if you can get a seat.

Nice visit
I walked around Georgetown in August 2021 on a hot and humid day. I walked from 20th and E (Foggy Bottom / George Washington University) to Georgetown (M and 32nd). I had not been to Georgetown in a long time. It is still full of restaurants and stores and quite crowded, even on a weekday. My favorite restaurant Filomena's is still there although it was too crowded to eat there. I also looked quickly at the canal but did not walk down to the harbor. The challenge with Georgetown is getting there. My walk to Georgetown was 2 miles and took 40 minutes. I walked around Georgetown for around two hours and then took the Circulator bus to 20th and M. In the past we had always driven to Georgetown and parked at Wisconsin and M.
