I often go on food tours on many of my vacations .. This is by far, hands down, the best one ever ! I highly recommend Tim’s tour with no hesitation; this tour is truly a MUST ! Tim thoroughly explained and broke down Washington DC city from Washington to DC, which I never knew .. It is a given we visit the nations capitol to see museums and monuments . Why Eat,Drink and Walk ?? Tims wealth of knowledge and passion for his beloved city is so transparent; hearing the enriched variety of cultures and neighborhoods , pairing them with specialty cocktails , appetizers and dinner was beyond exceptional .. I so enjoyed hearing the over 100 years of history of the neighborhoods growing and developing to what they are today. . An added benefit was seeing the beauty of the rooftop night skyline to end a wonderful night .. I always will remember this tour because Tim had taken so many photos and he gave us all the recipes of the specialty cocktails. I was never really a Foodie … but now I may become one !!! Enjoy !! Thank you Tim, Mary and LarryPosted onVerified Learn, Laugh and Enjoy As a resident I wasn’t sure I would get much out of the tour. I was wrong! Such great historical information on some fantastic DC neighborhoods. Food was great, hospitality was great and enjoyed meeting local restaurant owners and learning their stories as well. DC residents will love the details of our city. Visitors will learn DC is much more than our monuments and museums. You won’t be disappointed.Posted onVerified Fun and informative Tim is a great tour guide. He is organized and plans the tour to every detail like wipes for your hands, jacket if it’s too cold. He asks for food preferences at each stop and taylors the food to go with the history lessons. The food and drinks were amazing and we learned so much. It was 4 hours but it went by so fast.Posted onVerified Friends trip This was a great experience! Tim was so knowledgeable and entertaining. He thought of everything including an extra coat for anyone who was cold. I can't give him a higher review other than Awesome!Posted onVerified An evening with Tim Tim’s tour was a treat!! He gave us a detailed history of the area. He introduced us to restaurants and neighborhoods we would have never discovered on our own. He paid close attention to detail and even brought along extra jackets to share if we got chilly. He is very passionate about what he does. Highly recommend spending an evening with him.Posted onVerified Come Hungry, Leave Happy - best local tour in DC! Tim from DrinkEatWalk gave our group one of the best experiences we had in DC. We were traveling with a pretty big group of 17 people, and he was kind enough to accommodate us even though his usual max is 12. From the start, he made everyone feel welcome and kept the tour engaging for the entire group. What really stood out was how informative the tour was without ever feeling like a lecture. Tim shared so much history about the neighborhoods we walked through, and it felt like we were experiencing parts of DC you wouldn’t normally see as a tourist. The stops had way more of a local vibe than the typical spots, which made the whole experience feel authentic and special. I also really appreciated the little things that showed how much he cares about the experience he’s creating. He brought water and even umbrellas for us, which was such a thoughtful touch and really shows the level of service he provides. You can also tell he genuinely loves what he does. His passion for the city, its history, and its culture really comes through in the way he tells stories and engages with the group. I left with a real appreciation for the history and the rich cultures of the communities we visited. Especially during such a crazy time in our country, it felt meaningful to hear the stories and context behind these neighborhoods and how they’ve evolved. And of course, the food and drinks were amazing. By the end of the tour we were definitely full, but more importantly, we were happy. Every single person in our group had a great time and walked away satisfied, even our CEO and his wife who used to live in Dupont Circle and were regulars at a couple of the places we visited! Highly recommend for anyone visiting Washington DC!!Posted onVerified Exceptional Food, Community, and Storytelling! My family and I had an absolutely fantastic experience on Tim’s food tour. My boyfriend and I live in the neighborhood, and my parents were visiting from out of town, and despite that mix, the experience felt completely new and exciting for all of us. Even as locals, every stop was a new experience. From the very beginning, the tour felt incredibly personable and thoughtful — never scripted or rushed. Tim is exceptionally knowledgeable, not just about the food, but about the history of the neighborhood, the restaurants, and the people behind them. You could truly tell how much he cares about the community and takes pride in supporting local businesses. He shared stories that made each stop feel meaningful and personal, and he made everyone feel welcome and engaged throughout the tour. It was the perfect balance of great food, local insight, and genuine connection. I couldn’t recommend this experience (and Tim as guide) more highly!
