Going for a drink at the Press Club is the next best thing to sipping mojitos with Hemingway or guzzling gin and tonics with Graham Greene. Its habitués are more likely to be of the grant-grubbing variety, but they’ve got the drunken writer shtick down pat. The atmosphere hovers somewhere between a fin de siècle salon and a cinematic hangout for foreign correspondents (plants and an old-fashioned fan provide a tropical frisson). Art deco touches include gilt mirrors, upholstered furniture and band posters. Scribes and their muses can sip seven drafts, including Black Oak Pale Ale, Denison’s Weissbier and Nickel Brook Premium Organic Lager, or choose from 45 bottled beers. Musicians frequently pack into the front, playing everything from Celtic music to bluegrass.
