copahc Posted September 15 Report Share Posted September 15 Has anyone ever been to International Bar in the Washington PLaza hotel on Thomas Circle? How is it? I'm looking for a good place to go with a bunch of girls for happy hour on friday. Any suggestions?Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgiddy Posted September 15 Report Share Posted September 15 I never cared for it and I wouldn't reccommend it as a happy hour spot, especially for a group of ladies....maybe for a couple of people but not more then that. Why there? Is that walking distance from work or something? I like McCormicks for happy hour.....maybe 14th and K, near there at least. Good food, strong drinks and great service, good place to unwind and start the night. The waterfront is also good for happy hour....I also like Lucky bar.....yeah it's cheesy and whatever...but it's the perfect spot to sit outside and people watch and watch all the fools in the rat race to get home, etc...plus you can have many options within a few blocks........but you should really post pics of these girls and maybe I can give you some better spots....

copahc Posted September 21 Author Report Share Posted September 21 ...but you should really post pics of these girls and maybe I can give you some better spots....haha, no pictures, take my word for it. we are hot.you're right, international bar sucked. we were just looking for something new. somewhere with some good drinks and good looking people. haven't found a bar in dc yet that i can call home. hahahahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

copahc Posted September 21 Author Report Share Posted September 21 yeah, it's alright. I use to live near there. last time I went there for happy hour we didn't meet any guys.have you tried Gazuza? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vicman Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 oh - so you want a pick up joint? lol Lucky Bar is all cheese, but like pgiddy said, its close to everything - and there always seems to be a whole lotta guys hanging out there - a tip: dont order anything from the kitchen. how about an irish pub?

copahc Posted September 21 Author Report Share Posted September 21 No, I don't want a pick-up joint. just one where the boys aren't afraid to talk to us and buy us drinks. Last friday my friend and i sat in a bar for 2 hrs while this table full of boys stared at us. Then when we finally left, one of them came running out the door after us, beer in hand, asking where we were going. Loo late idiot!Irish bars are ok but we dont drink beer.

vicman Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 gee dunno. i rarely go out for happy hour so i dont know where all the good watering holes are where guys buy girls drinks. have you checked the post? maybe see what they list and picking 2 or 3 spots and just checking them out is the best way to go. sorry i'm quite useless in this regards.

kramadas Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 Hmm...I'll come over and talk to you ladies if you buy ME drinks! C'mon now its the 21st century!!! In fact, if you sat there for 2 hours and liked the guys at the table why didn't you make the first move? Try Eye bar, Mantis, Ozios, Cloud....

copahc Posted September 21 Author Report Share Posted September 21 Do I get a money back guarantee? hehehave you tried Eye bar, Cloud, Mantis, Sesto Senso, etc?More like lounges than bars, but I think thats what you're looking for.Actually, I’ve never been to any of those. We were about to go to Sesto Senso once, but it looked dead inside so we went somewhere else. Where are Mantis and cloud? I think we’re going to hit up the waterfront Thursday while it’s still nice out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copahc Posted September 21 Author Report Share Posted September 21 oh wait, i have been to cloud, that place was dead too. I like dragonfly, They have good lychee martinis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kramadas Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 oh wait, i have been to cloud, that place was dead too. I like dragonfly, They have good lychee martinis.Mantis: I believe its in Adams Morgan somewhere. Been there only once and was drunk but I remember it being good.Sesto Senso - been a long time ago but whenever I go to Five I see that the place is packed(its next to Five). Probably more of a late night joint than evening. Cloud - went once for an event, so it was happening then. They try to copy Spank and Bed by having back room where you can relax in beds and enjoy food and drinks. Eye bar is on I between 18th and 17th right above Bottom line. Again go there later, after 8pm. Waterfront should be fun. If you go to Dragonfly Thursday you might run into a large group of my friends celebrating someone's move upto NYC.Another friend of mine is spinning at Mantis later on Thursday. Some options after waterfront (that is, if you have not yet run into boys willing to be honored by the company of two intelligent, fun and beautiful ladies). Hmmm...wish I could go out.

kramadas Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 grounded??yeah, my mom said I couldn't go out till I turned at least 18 .hehe - NOT - a *few* years too late for that!I have class till about 10pm and then a career fair on Friday. Gotta do the *responsible* thing for a change.But will definitely party it up over the weekend! If you're into house at all, you should check out Five, though I have to find out whos there this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copahc Posted September 21 Author Report Share Posted September 21 I am into house, and I’ve been to five. It was fun. Unfortunately none of my friends are into that kind of scene, so I rarely go to dance clubs it sucks, I miss it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sapexec Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 I am into house, and I’ve been to five. It was fun. Unfortunately none of my friends are into that kind of scene, so I rarely go to dance clubs it sucks, I miss it.Happy hour and clubbing at night are two different topics. Beautiful and intelligent female.... Which supermodel (past or present) would you say you resemble? - I doubt you resemble a supermodel. The fact that you sat somewhere for two hours and didnt get approached by anyone willing to buy you drinks says quite a bit. When I am back in DC from Miami I Frequent the following. The top clubs/lounges in the city are Modern: Wed - Door Policy:International Crowd: lounging to hip hopK St: Tues - International crowd: small bar: tranceSmith Point: Fri - Door Policy: Where the young republicans, trust fund kids, and ralph lauren polo crowd party. 5: Fri - AfterhoursFur - Sat: Best Trance in the city. Any of the lounges on 18th and M are decent for happy hour. 18th St Lounge, 1223, Ozios, Dragonfly. And instead sitting in one place for two hours, you can move on.
