Press Club DC is a fantastic spot for a splurge-worthy date night! The vibe is incredible, with vinyl records creating a perfect ambiance. The cocktails were expertly crafted and the bites were phenomenal. While the tab was on the expensive side, the service and experience were well worth it for a special occasion. We’ll definitely be back for another treat!
