What happened after Man v. Food?

On Man v. Food, Casey Webb visited Hamilton's Bar & Grill near Capitol Hill, sampling the pub's burgers, sandwiches, and its self-described 'famous tots,' served alongside a rotating lineup of ten draft beers, according to the bar's own website. The episode highlighted the bar's casual, beer-focused menu in a brick-walled Capitol Hill setting. Since the 2020 broadcast, Hamilton's has continued operating at 233 2nd Street NW; the DowntownDC business association's directory page, last modified September 2026, lists current hours and no closure notice for the address, and the bar's own website — still promoting weekday happy hour specials and its 'Lambeau on the Hill' Green Bay Packers fan club — remains active online. No independent news report of a closure, sale, or name change has surfaced for the location since the episode aired.
