Bar Seen
Sette: For a casual night in Dupont Circle, Sette is the ideal place to grab dinner with friends. The inside feels like an Italian rustic kitchen with great authentic pizzas, pastas and a diverse wine list and the outdoor patio is a popular meeting spot on warm nights.

Smith Point: With no sign and a hidden cracked wooden door, one would never expect that Smith Point in Georgetown has become the watering-hole playground for the young professional set, where pants embroidered with animals and Gucci Loafers are the standard. Although the Bush twins held their private Inaugural party at Smith Point, it is certainly not the conservative bar it is rumored to be.

Bourbon: The name speaks for itself. This Glover Park hang out attracts a diverse crowd and serves 50 types of bourbon.
