U Street Corridor

U Street Corridor with Kids

U Street really comes into its own at night, but tweens and teens can have a good time here during the day. Kids of any age can have a great lunch at Ben's Chili Bowl, and they're warmly welcomed in Etete as well. Teens might like browsing the eclectic shops on U Street and down 14th Street. For a sweet treat, check out the ACKC Cocoa Gallery, a bright and welcoming chocolate café on 14th Street.
