Discover the best places for happy hour in Washington DC
Happy hour is a chance to kick back and relax after a long workday, with friends and coworkers or mingling with unfamiliar faces. Like any city, Washington, D.C. has no shortage of prime happy hour spots to choose from. Are you looking to join in an active happy hour event? Or are you looking to make it memorable for a group of friends by reserving the entire venue for the evening?
Many DC bars, restaurants, gastropubs, and lounges allow guests to reserve the entire space for company team building or bachelor party event. The venue you choose will have its own character, distinguishing it from other spaces. If you want sushi specials check out happy hour evenings at any of DC's world-class asian fusion restaurants, for example!
Explore upscale happy hour venues in Washington DC
Happy hour can be a casual affair with a space to match that feel. But it can also be an upscale event; cocktail happy hours, wine nights, happy hour birthday parties, and other events all benefit from a touch of luxury! As a major food city, we recommend checking out happy hour specials at one of DC's international restaurants. Casa Kantuta is a Bolivian-inspired live music venue serving South American beer and spirits amidst carefully chosen art displays.
Hotels and lounges also offer upscale happy hour experiences. Washington, D.C. hotels have been hosting diplomats, presidents, and other dignitaries for centuries. You'll find that many offer luxurious bars with expert mixologists and unbeatable beverage selections for a true upscale happy hour experience.
Find rooftop happy hour venues in Washington DC
Happy hour doesn't have to mean crowding indoors and bumping elbows with a bunch of people. Many top happy hour spaces in Washington, D.C. are rooftop venues where you can appreciate fresh air and skyline views along with your drink specials! Chinatown has a rooftop joint called Bar Deco set in a former industrial site. They've retained the industrial character for a gritty charm that's immediately apparent yet tasteful. Almost as tasteful as the New American fare they serve atop their rooftop patio during happy hour!
When the weather turns sour, rooftop venues may seem like a poor choice. Unless you've chosen a happy hour destination like Ozio DC, that is! Ozio has a retractable glass roof on the top floor of their multi-story bar. No matter the weather conditions you can enjoy a rooftop happy hour with everything from mussels to wine specials on offer.
