🎅🐘 50 DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS, AND THE REAL SANTA IS COMING TO THE ELEPHANT! 🎄🎁. No really on 11/5/26

Yes, the REAL Santa! We’re flying him in from the North Pole 😆 to help us kick off the Christmas season with a little magic and a whole lot of giving. ❤️

Join us at Elephant in the Room on November 5, from 4–8 PM!

🎁 Bring an unwrapped gift and take pictures with Santa! Bring the children, bring the grandchildren, and help us turn their excitement into Christmas joy for other children in our community.

Our goal is to fill our gift box so we can donate gifts to more than 250 children. Every gift brings us closer to making that happen, and every family who participates becomes part of something special.

Come enjoy dinner, meet Santa, and help us make this a Christmas to remember! We’re adding a little special gift, everyone will have homemade Christmas cookies. 

Please LIKE and SHARE this post so we can spread the word, fill that box, and share the joy! 🎅❤️

Our bartender Darby has created two unique drinks that deserve a spot in your holiday Monday plans!

🎸 Elvis Has Left the Building
Sheep Dog Peanut Butter Wh***ey meets banana liqueur and creamy half-and-half, topped with cinnamon and a cherry. Smooth, sweet, and full of personality—a little tribute to the King with an Elephant twist!

🔥 The Nutty Professor
A smoked peanut butter Old Fashioned featuring Sheep Dog Peanut Butter Wh***ey. Rich, nutty, and smoky—Darby’s bold spin on a classic.

Come spend part of your day with Darby, try something new, and pair it with our incredible October menu specials!

🏈🐘 Good football. Great friends. Elephant family.

Today, we had the honor of hosting our chef and so many of our wonderful customers in the Elephant in the Room suite at Northwest Stadium, watching the Washington Commanders take on the New York Giants!

Our owner, Jeremy, also had a chance to catch up with some old friends in their suite, making an already special day even more memorable.

The best part? Sharing the experience with the people who help make the Elephant what it is. From our kitchen to our tables to the stadium, we love seeing this community become a family. ❤️

Thank you to everyone who spent the day with us in Landover, Maryland. Here’s to football, friendship, and more memories together!

❤️ When you spend so much time caring for others, you deserve a moment to be cared for, too.

Today, we had the pleasure of welcoming 18 beautiful ladies of the North Arundel County Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. to Elephant in the Room following their chapter meeting.

These women commit hundreds of hours each year to community service and donate hundreds of thousands of dollars to help those in need throughout our county. Behind that generosity are women who give their time, their energy, and their hearts to making life better for others.

Today, they simply wanted to relax, enjoy lunch, celebrate Mrs. Rita Brooks’s birthday, and spend time together in what they lovingly call sisterhood. 🎂❤️

Our lunch hour was extremely busy, but we’re so grateful we could make room for all 18 of you. Serving women who do so much for our community was an honor, and we’re thankful you chose our small business for this special afternoon.

Ladies, we see your service, we appreciate your generosity, and we thank you for the lives you touch. We hope you left our tables feeling welcomed, appreciated, and celebrated.

Happy birthday, Mrs. Brooks! From all of us at Elephant in the Room, thank you for allowing us to care for you for a little while. ❤️🐘

🐘 A LITTLE PLANNING. A BETTER EXPERIENCE FOR EVERYONE.

At Elephant in the Room, we love bringing people together! To help our team serve every guest with the care and hospitality you deserve, we’re introducing a few updates:

• Parties of 8 or more: One check will be issued for the entire party, with a 20% gratuity automatically added. Separate checks will not be available.

• Groups of 4 or more: At least half of your party must be present before your group can be seated.

Large gatherings are always welcome, and we have many everyday. We simply encourage you to plan ahead, share these policies with your group, and arrange how you’ll handle payment before arriving.

Splitting a large table into individual checks can take considerable time, slowing service for your group and other guests. These changes help our servers spend more time taking care of you and keep service moving smoothly throughout the restaurant.

Thank you for your understanding, your support, and for choosing to gather around our tables. Our goal is simple: exceptional hospitality for every guest, every visit.
