Downtown
Bars, breweries, and nightlife in Downtown, Washington
Downtown Washington, DC is the city's core business district, and its bar scene reflects a workday-driven crowd as much as a nightlife one. BarFinder lists 14 venues here, with classic bars, gastropubs, and pubs leading - Duke's Grocery and Froggy Bottom Pub fit a scene built around after-work happy hours and lunch crowds. A cocktail bar and a couple of lounges round things out. A practical, central option if your night starts near the office rather than a neighborhood bar strip.
