What players say
What a find! I was looking for a fun spot on a Wednesday night and Recessions delivered one of the most memorable nights I've had in DC. The karaoke here is top-tier. The energy was electric, with a friendly crowd singing great songs and genuinely enjoying themselves.
Didn’t take any photos or videos here but it’s a bar that has food, two pool tables, and karaoke. Was a good time, the owner or manager was very friendly, and the bartender Mike was super helpful. We were there for a good 6 hours or so. Had a great time. Sang karaoke, had food, lots of drinks.
Love this joint. In town from Philly for work for a few weeks and recessions has become our go to. Pool, great food and super hospitable. Owner is the man and Annie behind the bar is the best. Couldn't ask for a more comfortable place to have a few drinks, bite to eat and shoot some pool.
Best place in DC to come shoot pool and sing karaoke. Friendly staff, super cool owner, and talented locals Monday to Saturday with karaoke every night.
