James Hoban is the little known Irishman who was the architect of The White House (beating Thomas Jefferson in an architectural competition to find the best design). He designed many other important buildings in his adopted country, the young United States of America. We seek to honor this little known Irishman by naming our restaurant & bar after him. In Ireland the bar, whether it is a bustling Dublin one or a humble village one, is a focal point where the people of the community meet to converse with each other, to entertain each other, to share a meal with each other, to celebrate some happy event and even to give support to each other in times of trouble.
We have endeavored to bring to Washington a flavor of today's Ireland with a look that presents our most cherished traditional aspects and also allows modern Ireland to speak. Our menu naturally features many favorite traditional dishes but also reflects contemporary Ireland with its strong European culinary influences. What the Irish value most in their hospitality is its friendliness. We strive above all to provide this ingredient so that you, our customer, can experience true Irish hospitality. If our efforts add in any small measure to the joy and pleasure of life in this great city, then we will have been true to the spirit of James Hoban.

Much like an actual stadium, there is a Field section, a Club Level section, and a VIP Skybox lunge which will make your experience private. It has the longest gentlemen's club bar in DC consisting of four separate stages providing non-stop action in all parts of Stadium Club. Once inside you will be surrounded by the action as you sit at the bar or at the tables in the main room. Additionally, those tables pull double duty, one part cocktail/light dining table and one part mini-dance stage for the Stadium Girls.
The most notable aspect of Stadium Club is the Stadium Restaurant. While most gentlemen's clubs serve food, few can provide five star quality fine dining. At the Stadium Club you will find food, beverage, and quality of the service commonly reserved for and found in the best steak houses in the city but with beautiful ladies while you eat. At the Stadium Club you have a 40 seat restaurant situated in, yet very discretely set apart from, the main club room where you can conduct business in a very exclusive setting. Add the detailed amenities of top wines and champagne to choose from while you enjoy your meal along with the entertainment, and you are now immersed in one of the most unique experiences ever seen in Washington, DC.
