If the concept isn’t too painful for you, beer prices at this stock market-themed H Street bar drop depending on how many people are ordering. You can check current prices and selection on its website.
2. Recessions
Can’t beat the name, and the décor will remind you that things could always be worse.
3. Ghibellina
Its really good pizza-based happy hour runs from 4-6:30, and you can stare sadly at Le Diplomate, remembering the days when you could afford it.
4. Bar Charley
Happy hour runs all night on Mondays, with deals on beer, classic cocktails for $6, and discounts on chicken wings, fries, and burgers.
A $4 local tap, $8 signature cocktails, and half off snazzy bar food like duck neck and fried tomatoes. All served in a basement that will protect you from memories of the world outside.
