I'm guessing it wasn't cheap, but it was low key and fun.


I think you're referring to Corner Pocket? Yes, rentable and fun but I don't think you could serve alcohol.

OP, One Bar and Grill in Fairfax City (https://onebarngrill.com/#party) has a nice private room. You could also inquire about reserving space at Commonwealth Brewery, but it gets really loud.


I think I've been at bar mitzvahs at the corner pocket that serve alcohol. I think that's a great idea, actually.

I think the back room at Glory Days in Burke only seats around 25 ish people IIRC.

I wish Brion’s Grille was still around. Went to several private events there. It was outdated, but reliable!
