If you've been looking for an excuse to finally book that Bangkok Supper Club reservation, here it is: one of Washington, D.C.'s buzziest cocktail bars is popping up behind the Greenwich Village bar for a single night this week.

On Wednesday, July 29, Bangkok Supper Club will host a one-night takeover from Press Club, the acclaimed D.C. cocktail destination. The guest shift runs for two seatings—6 pm to 8 pm and 8 pm to 10 pm—and gives New Yorkers a chance to sample some of the cocktails that have made the capital bar one of its hottest reservations.

Press Club, which opened in 2024, has become known for drinks that combine meticulous technique with seasonal ingredients and draw inspiration from music and cocktail culture. For the takeover, managing partner Will Patton will bring several of the bar's signature creations to New York, each one sounding as dramatic as a favorite album track.

Among them is the Temptation, a bright, summery mix of Patrón Blanco, Chenin Blanc, serrano pepper, mango, lime and shiso. If you prefer something richer, there's Nights Over Egypt, which blends Angel's Envy Bourbon with yogurt, Bordeaux, blackberry and lemon before finishing with an unexpected dusting of yogurt powder. There will also be a handful of additional specialty cocktails available only during the event.

Since opening, Bangkok Supper Club has built a following for contemporary Thai cooking inspired by Bangkok's late-night food scene. Bangkok-born executive chef Max Wittawat's menu leans heavily on bold flavors and shareable dishes, from tiger prawn satay with curry cashew butter to grilled beef tongue scented with galangal and lemongrass, plus seared sea bass finished in hand-crushed chakram curry. The restaurant's own cocktail program already incorporates ingredients like pandan, coriander root and even fish sauce, making it a natural match for Press Club.

Whether you're a cocktail obsessive chasing limited-time collaborations or simply want to see what all the fuss is about without making the trip to D.C., this is one of those blink-and-you'll-miss-it events. Reservations are available through Resy but with just two seatings planned, they're unlikely to last long.
