Food Recommendations

As a reminder, meals are not being provided at the conference. We recommend grabbing coffee prior to the morning general sessions on Tuesday, June 30, and Wednesday, July 1, as the Innovation Hall does not open until after the general sessions conclude. During exhibit hall breaks, complimentary coffee will be available in the Innovation Hall coffee lounge.

Local Restaurants

Explore local dining options on the Dine & Drink at National Harbor webpage. There are many filter options, including by location. To view restaurants directly in the National Harbor, we recommend filtering by location and selecting Gaylord National Resort and Waterfront District. 

The MGM Resort and Casino and Topgolf locations are close, but require transportation.

Old Town Alexandria is a short water taxi or rideshare away from the National Harbor and offers a plethora of dining options. The water taxi also stops at The Wharf and Georgetown, both prime areas for dining and entertainment.
