About this venue

Editor's Take: Named after the patron saint of Belgian brewers, St. Arnold's offers a rustic, European charm tucked away on a quiet street near Dupont Circle. Their extensive mussel menu and beer list are second to none.

We specialize in Belgian-style mussels with over 15 different sauces, paired with an incredible selection of Belgian and local craft beers in a warm, subterranean setting.
