Where to stay in Arlington

This great eatery does the best brunch! A smokehouse doing brunch!?!? Yes! What better way to dip that toe into smoked meat heaven than breakfast on a Sunday. Fresh sauteed veggies smoked, pork, eggs, hollandaise and potatoes. Your mouth and stomach will thank you! #trovember!

They don't use salt in their food, but it s still usually pretty good. It's inexpensive for the city and everything here from the pie and shakes are old fashion. It's a lovely place to eat when in or around DC and Arlington area.

Arlington is a nice city that has easy metro, vehicle, and (in some places) walking access to D.C. It also has plenty of its own amenities for those who prefer to stay on the Virginia side of the Potomac River.
