Lunch options in Georgetown?

[mimi777]

My husband & I will be in town for a long weekend, & are staying in the Georgetown area. What are some good late lunch options to start off our getaway for the Thursday we arrive? Thanks!

I love lunch at Leopold's. It's back in Cady's Alley, in the western part of Georgetown, just south of M. It's surrounded by some fantastic furniture stores, so you can have a grand time sitting outside and munching at Leopold's, then wandering through Gore Dean and other great stores. There's some great German-style food, plus some basics, pretty upscale but reasonably priced, and great espresso.

Second Leopolds. Love that it's tucked back in the alley. It's actually become a favorite breakfast spot for me.

Peacock Cafe in gtown is a nice lunch spot. It is contemporary American food and they have outdoor seating if the weather is nice. http://www.peacockcafe.com/index.html

It may not be the kickoff lunch that you're looking for, but if you find yourselves in need of a quick and easy lunch while you're in Georgetown, check out Cafe Tu O Tu, down near the 4 Seasons. They have the most amazing salads and an adorable semi-outdoors seating area in the back.

I've never even heard of this place. Is it new?

Bangkok Joe's has a nice atmosphere and good pan-asian food. It's close to (though not on) the water. Yummy cocktails, too!

If the weather is nice down at the harbor is Agraria. I haven't been in a while, but really enjoyed it the couple times I have gone. They used to have really good roast chicken.

I would suggest certainly checking out Hook for either lunch or dinner. It's my new favorite restaurant in town with deliciously fresh seafood in a fun environment.

If you just want a simple but yummy salad you can check out the new Sweet Greens.

For french bistro-style cuisine I like Bistro Francais. And if you are looking for a big, Italian lunch I would go to Filomena.

Second for Bistro Francais. I always like dining there on off hours for some reason. Maybe because it serves dinner so late? They're very accomodating.
