I love visiting DC so give us an idea of budgets because I can recommend very pricey or cheap and cheeful...

Re: Bars and Stuff to do in Washington DC
DC has some very good night clubs. The 9:30 Club is probably the best known. This web site has some good info on clubs etc:
www.dcclubbing.com
There are loads of good restaurants. What sort of cuisine are you looking for?

Re: Bars and Stuff to do in Washington DC
Drinking options I could recommend include:
Off the Record (quality cocktails and ambience, White House/K Street crowd)
Church Key (14th St, good beer menu and atmosphere)
Bourbon (Glover Park, consistent, good bourbon card etc)
Martins Tavern (Georgetown, old school, eclectic mix of punters)

Re: Bars and Stuff to do in Washington DC
Although the 9.30 is a live music venue rather than a nightclub. I would book a table at the POV - for a couple of cocktails - its a cool bar at the top of the W hotel overlooking the White House, then dinner at The Ebbitt Grill - and for a cool nightclub you should try Josephines, or Eden.
