About

A good drink matters here, but so does the record on the turntable. Press Club stands out for pairing serious cocktails with the easy pleasure of a well chosen soundtrack, giving the room a sense of character that feels more personal than themed. The drinks are polished and inventive without becoming fussy, and the staff tends to guide guests with confidence rather than ceremony. Tucked below street level in Dupont Circle, it works equally well for a date, a quiet conversation, or a night that starts with one round and lingers.
