Meet halfway in Washington, DC
With Virginia and Maryland addresses in the same group, the fair meeting point in Washington is almost never downtown. Triangulmate routes every address on Metro and on foot and keeps only the restaurants and bars where travel times stay close together.
Where groups usually land
Dupont Circle
Red line access with a dense concentration of restaurants and bars.
Gallery Place / Chinatown
Red, Green and Yellow line interchange — usually the lowest-transfer option.
Rosslyn
One stop from Georgetown and fair when part of the group is in Arlington.
Union Market / NoMa
Good balance for northeast addresses and MARC commuters.
The rules Triangulmate applies in Washington
Each address is routed on Metro and on foot for your exact departure time. A venue is only recommended when the walk stays under 10 minutes, total door-to-door travel stays within your limit (default 30 minutes), and no two people differ by more than the fairness gap you set (default 5 minutes). Rail is preferred over buses, and journeys that force one person through extra transfers are pushed down the list.
- Weekend Metro headways are long — set the real departure time before comparing spots.
- Drivers see nearby garages and estimated rates inside their travel totals.
- Choose 'cost' as your priority when most of the group is driving or taking taxis.
