WHERE TO EAT & DRINK

Queer/Bar offers live drag performances every Friday and Saturday night, with DJs throughout the week. Blocks away from SIFF Cinema Egyptian, it is a great spot for a cocktail before and after a screening!
One block from the SQFF24 festival, Capitol Cider is one of the top five independent cider bars in the country, offering gluten-free cuisine. Bring a ticket stub from a screening for a free order of hand-cut fries. Everyone is welcome.
This 24-hour diner promises "the stiffest drinks on the Hill" and "no pretentious deconstructed anything, just real food for real people at great prices." The atmosphere is retro-Twin-Peaks-y, and there is pie. Just steps from SIFF Cinema Egyptian.
Capitol Hill’s former dive icon ups it game with a rehabbed new look heavy on recycled wood and neon, plus dining booths, vintage pinball, pool and Skee-Ball and entertainment that ranges from DJs spinning vintage vinyl to live bands. With 24 taps and a beer can lineup that ranges from run-of-the-mill to craft, no one will go thirsty.
The gays know how to have fun: They know it, you know it, I know it, and Pony is more fun per inch than anywhere in town, if not the world. Just blocks from SIFF Cinema Egyptian, Pony is a great option for a cocktail at almost any time of the day.
Union is the newest addition to the Capitol Hill gayborhood with a relaxed atmosphere, cocktails, cold beer, delicious bites, music videos, a fireplace lounge and year-round outdoor patio, bring your friends to meet-up, relax and unwind.
At Poquitos we strive to present delicious Mexican cuisine prepared with ingredients that are the best of both worlds - outstanding local sourcing for our meats and produce; unique and direct sourcing for items essential to honoring the culinary traditions of Mexico.
At Dumpling Tzar, we serve up everyone’s favorite comfort food: dumplings. In the Russian Pelmeni tradition, they’re pillowy bites of beef or potato (your choice), topped with a variety of delicious sauces & condiments. Our Capitol Hill location also offers dessert dumplings (Nutella, anyone?!) and craft cocktails, beer, and wine.
Eltana’s bagels are hand-rolled for chewy deliciousness, wood-fired for more handsomeness, and smaller than most, along the lines of the bagels found in Montreal. The bagels taste good, and the cafes are pleasant. Also: soups, spreads, and sweets—from Syria, Egypt, Israel, Lebanon, and all across the Levant—along with regional wine and beer.
Named after the 1905 apartment building in which it resides, St. John’s brings affordable, unpretentious food and drink to Capitol Hill’s Pike/Pine corridor.
