The Wharf reestablishes Washington, DC, as a waterfront city and destination. This remarkable, mile-long stretch along the Potomac River comes to life with restaurants, retailers, residences, and businesses-all complemented by monumental views and a vibrant culture. Home of the award-winning Anthem concert hall, multiple intimate music venues, a host of local retailers, and the nation’s oldest operating fish market, The Wharf offers a truly unique DC experience.
The Wharf is one of the most connected and accessible neighborhoods in Washington, DC. With Metro and VRE in easy walking distance, Reagan International Airport and Union Station ten minutes away by car, underground parking, Capital Bikeshare onsite, and daily water taxi access, getting to The Wharf is a breeze.

Fish Market Opened in 1805, The Municipal Fish Market at The Wharf-often simply called The Fish Market-is the oldest continuously operating open-air fish market in the United States, predating New York City’s Fulton Fish Market by 17 years. Through the centuries, the Fish Market has been home to an ever-changing array of vendors and eateries, including produce vendors, oyster boats, bait and tackle shops, and lumber distributors.
Nestled between the Potomac River and the National Mall (1100 Maine Avenue SW, Washington, DC), this DC landmark is a true local gem. Choose from unique and vibrant seafood vendors. You can get fresh or cooked seafood: heaping bushels of blue crab, shucked oysters, clams, shrimp, and freshly caught fish. Stock up for special occasions, grab something for lunch or dinner, or walk over to one of The Wharf’s plazas or parks-or the Tidal Basin-for a scenic picnic. Whatever you do, don’t miss this hometown favorite, chock full of fresh seafood and local flavor.

I’ve been visiting this spot for decades. Pretty much every time I come down to DC I try to make it over there. I’m so happy that they’ve built it up. It’s really special.
