Press Club at The Violet Hour

Start: Sunday, September 8, 2024 6:00PM
End: Sunday, September 8, 2024 10:00PM

For one night only, the Violet Hour will host Will Patton and Devin Kennedy of the up-and-coming DC-based Press Club Cocktail Bar. He will utilize the Maison Ferrand portfolio to create a 4-cocktail menu full of technique-driven soon-to-be hits. Ticket includes two cocktails of your choice from the evening's menu. About Press Club: Located in the Historic Dupont Circle neighborhood, Press Club is a new record bar and cocktail lounge from the team of Will Patton, Devin Kennedy and Hive Hospitality. With the vibes of a 70s cocktail lounge and aesthetics of a 90s record shop, Press Club brings a unique imbibing experience. The name is an homage to DC, a reference to the iconic National Press Club, while also evoking the pressing of the records to be played, and of the ingredients used to craft exquisitely balanced cocktails. Taking inspiration from the A & B sides of a record, Press Club offers two congruent experiences. For guests who want the comfort of the classics, they offer an a la carte “Track List” menu: a ten to twelve cocktail menu that rotates biannually featuring their favorite spirits and techniques. For those guests seeking out a deep-cut, or more curated experience, the bar offers a “Play List” menu: a bimonthly rotating four cocktail flight highlighting more seasonal ingredients, presented tableside with the supplemental bites.
