Who doesn’t love a good happy hour deal, especially on the weekend? I’m a little bit over the pregame parties on the weekends(*thinks of taking shots of Fireball and dies a little inside*), so I’m always on the hunt for new spots that offer Saturday and Sunday happy hours. I love going out, but don’t have an unlimited fun budget so I like to try and find a spot to catch a happy hour deal before dinner dates or bar hopping. Since weekend happy hours are a rarity in DC, I’ve rounded up some of my favorite spots to save you the trouble of searching for your own!
Before I give away my cheap booze secrets – I wore this look to my ultimate happy hour spot, Chaplin’s, with a girlfriend last weekend which is why I’ve included outfit photos in this post. It was chilly enough last weekend to top of my slip dress with my go-to moto jacket and platform heels. BTW, if you go to Chaplin’s, order the Vegabond and thank me later.
