Editorial Review for Six Arms McMenamins – by Citysearch Staff
The Scene
Since it belongs to the ever-present McMenamins chain, it's a pleasant surprise that Six Arms fits so well into Capitol Hill's independent spirit. The planning is certainly obvious--it's got that upscale-grunge look--but nothing feels forced. Big, funky dark wood booths and a fine selection of ales make this a real neighborhood joint. Servers are quick with suggestions and happy to check with the kitchen on special orders.
The Draw
Cocktails are on the menu, but housebrewed beer holds the place of honor. Of the many McMenamins branded taps, two are nitrogenated (rather than carbonated), and supply a clean, unusual flavor that's worth sampling. To go with your generous plate of beer-battered fish and chips or fat, juicy burger, try the sampler plate of brews that offers a few sips of every variety.

I had the worst experience here. The service was terrible and rude. Our party of 6 waited 25 minutes for our drinks. The server approached the table and called my friend "very rude" with no cause. At that point I went to speak with the manager, who was also the barternder?? Not a good plan.... She was no help at all and put her hand in my face and said "let me talk." Very strange and terrible experience. They really need to clean house with their staff and start again!
Pros: Its in the city
Cons: terrible service and food
