Dave & Buster's Now Open in Silver Spring Venue

The sports bar Dave & Buster's just off the Red Line in Silver Spring opened for business Nov. 21 in Ellsworth Place.

SILVER SPRING, MD — Dining and entertainment venue Dave & Buster’s has opened its third Maryland location, a 40,980-square-foot location at Ellsworth Place in downtown Silver Spring right off the Red Line.

The new location marks the expansion of the Ellsworth Place entertainment destination, and the third Dave & Buster’s in Maryland. Dave & Buster’s close proximity to the respective homes of the Washington Redskins, Washington Nationals and DC United make the D&B Sports bar the ideal sports viewing destination for local residents to cheer on their home teams with massive HD TVs and “better than the stadium” seating, the company says.

The November opening marks the company’s 90th location.
