Ben's Chili Bowl

Local owned, woman owned, the Ben’s brand is red hot and is a must-visit restaurant for anyone visiting Washington. Ben’s has also expanded by opening its first new restaurant and bar called Ben's Next Door in 2008, in addition to outposts at the Nationals baseball Stadium and FedEx

Established in 1958 with multiple locations throughout DC, Maryland and Virginia our reputation is built by the loyalty of our customers, and we listened when you said, "whatever you do, never change this place." The counter, booths and stools are all original; the fresh homemade chili is still made with love, using the same secret recipe, and service and quality are guiding principles. To our customers and especially our regulars, we appreciate you and thank you for supporting Ben's.

To those reading this that have yet to come to Ben's, we look forward to seeing you very soon!
