My friends and I are non-alcoholic drinkers. Our ages range from 18 to 26 (college students to young professionals). We like varieties of drinks (other than Starbucks), and we’re looking for Friday night hangouts in D.C. Any suggestions?
When you want to meet up with friends without committing to a full meal, steering clear of booze is not an easy endeavor — particularly on a night many Washingtonians reserve for going out and partying. Yet couched among bars, clubs, and restaurants that make their money on alcohol are plenty of places offering alternatives.
No, we’re not recommending the D.C. public library or a church basement youth group meeting. Whether you’re looking for a place to hang out, plug in, people-watch, or see live music, you’ll find what you seek at these spots where alcohol is either sidelined or verboten.
