Green Lantern
Green Lantern, Leafy Court Northwest, Washington, DC, USA
Green Lantern is hidden away in an otherwise unassuming alleyway in Downtown. The lock is located in a converted two-story carriage house, and the first floor's lounge vibe is complete with a central and elegant granite bar. You can dance the night away on Green Lantern's multi-level dance floor (complete with disco lights) and chat with the shirtless bartenders. There's even a “Shirtless Men Brew Free†event on Thursdays, along with karaoke and exotic dancers on other days.
