Old Tune Inn
I too was a staffer in the 80s and have many fond memories of lunch of greasy burgers and after work cheap beers. There was a classic grumpy waitress who would squeeze into the booth with you when taking your order. Sorry to hear it's changed - even DC needs a good dive.

My Old Friend the Tune
As a Hill staffer in the early 80's, I remember the cheap beer, great burgers, and the unofficial theme song "You Never Even Call Me By My Name" by David Allen Coe; all just a short drunken stumble from the Hill and Capitol South Metro.

not the same tune inn
i was there as a congressional intern in the '70s and was charmed by how un-DC like it was. was back there in feb 08 and couldn't believe how upscale it had become by comparison. ARGH!

Consistent
From my first visit in 1978 when a waitress through some silverware at me and said she'd be right back - to when I stopped by last week while in town - this place is a classic. Always had a rep for wait staff that appeared surly, always had great fried chicken and always had cheap beer. If you're on Capitol Hill, find the Tune Inn and stop in for decent food and decent service that is funny and at decent prices.

Well, it's got some nostalgia going for it
The Tune Inn is a dive. I used to go there just to be insulted by the waitresses (and they weren't imaginative). But they are open late, it's laid back so long as it isn't crowded, and is certainly an alternative to late night eating and drinking. However, stick with a burger. I ordered a chili cheese omelet on a quiet Sunday, and wasn't sure what I got. Eggs masquerating as scrambled, and a mess of chili and cheese whiz, stone cold home fries, and that's enough to be said. Reasonably cheap though, but the portions aren't that large.

good food, great prices
Nice, comfortable, laid back bar and restaurant. If you are tired of high priced fancy restaurants in DC give the Tune Inn a try.

Hits the spot at 2AM...
This is one of the best places in DC to get breakfast at 2AM. The food is greasy, cheap and you get plenty of it. It definitely hits the spot after a night of drinking on the Hill. You can still get a beer with your bacon and eggs. The music played is good ol' Rock and Roll. The service you get is what you pay for. They take your order, they bring you your food, they bring you your bill- friendly, but nothing to write home about. In my opinion, this is one of the best hidden gems in DC.
