Bars in Washington, D.C.

Round Robin Bar

A circular, oak-paneled bar inside the historic Willard InterContinental that has drawn presidents and power brokers since the 1800s. Order the mint julep, which legend says was popularized in Washington right here. Practical note: it's a refined, jacket-friendly room a block from the White House, best for classic cocktails done with restraint.
