Adams Morgan, Washington, DC –

An intimate venue in the heart of the normally chaotic Adams Morgan bar scene, Bossa Bistro and Lounge offers live world music and cozy, candlelit nooks to its international music-loving clientele.

A hacienda motif featuring rustic yellow walls and a rotating display of exotic photographs marks the first floor performance space, where large windows opening almost entirely onto the bustling 18th-Street strip allow fresh air to flow in and salsa, samba, and merengue beats to flow out.

Gyrating masses dance the night away on the open dance floor, while those looking for a quieter vibe escape to the upstairs lounge for conversation – often in a half-dozen different languages – and a few rounds of mojitos.

Sofas and benches on both levels offer space for upbeat revelers to rest their feet, have another glass of red wine, and scope out the crowd for their next dance partner.

Multicultural and energetic, Bossa Bistro and Lounge is the kind of spot where both the music and the patrons reflect DC’s vibrant diversity.
