Say Yum: Fall Cocktails at The Ritz-Carlton, Georgetown

Another of Deacon's favorite hotel bars is the lobby bar at the Ritz-Carlton, Georgetown - this underrated spot boasts a convenient location and free Wi-Fi, making it perfect for catching up with a friend or on work before another in-town event. Plus, we're in love with their seasonal promotions.

“Rendezvous at The Ritz” takes place every evening in Degrees Bar & Lounge from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. and features half-priced cocktails like the Starry Night Martini made with Van Gogh Double Espresso Vodka, Stoli Vanilla Vodka, Espresso, and Cream; or an Autumn Orchid, a blend of Navan Vanilla Cognac, Champagne.

Starting Friday, the hotel’s Fireside Signature S’mores are back. Patrons can cozy up to the hotel’s outdoor fire pit and create their own customized s’more, or simply sit back and allow Chef Duong to build The Ritz-Carlton, Georgetown Signature S’more. Rich with seductive blends of flavors from melted Valrhona chocolate and homemade marshmallows sandwiched between two slices of French baguette bread prepared French-toast style, this complimentary festive treat is butler passed every evening from 6:30 to 7 p.m. in the hotel lobby.  The hotel’s S’more-melier will also be available to recommend wine and cocktail pairings as well as to discuss the art of making s’mores at your request.
