What will Benjamin Invent Next?

Per order of the Mayor of Washington, D.C., all indoor seating at bars and restaurants is prohibited. BLT Prime by David Burke, Benjamin Bar & Lounge, and Sushi Nakazawa will all be closed. In Room Dining remains available for registered hotel guests.

Benjamin Franklin’s mind was never idle as he continually looked for ways to improve everyday life. Franklin was famous for more than his inventions. He was the country’s first Postmaster General and was known as a “Founding Foodie” and for his belief that “There can’t be good living where there is not good drinking.”

Benjamin Bar & Lounge brings our namesake’s lifelong passions of inventions, fine beverages, and food to life in the 21st century. Experience wine by the spoon, champagne sabering, exquisite pastries, and entertaining at a new level.
