GBD 5

GBD--which gets its name from the restaurant kitchen shorthand for golden, brown and delicious--pairs the sweet and savory indulgences of doughnuts and fried chicken.

Located just south of Dupont Circle, GBD is a casual & lively neighborhood spot offering lunch, weekend brunch, dinner and a killer happy hour. We serve up fresh doughnuts that are made in small batches throughout the day and topped with classic and seasonal glazes, such as our maple bourbon glaze with bacon or our hot cinnamon glaze. On the savory side, our crispy fried chicken is available by the piece or bucket, as well as in our infamous Luther Sandwich or atop waffles with Maple-chicken jus & buttered pecans. All the while, we keep good drinks flowing from our bar which serves as a destination for craft beer curated by Beer Director Greg Engert, fantastic wines compiled by Wine Director Brent Kroll and one-of-a-kind specialty cocktails.
