Cantab DC is delighted to invite you to the First Thursday Drinks of September 2025. This month we will be heading to a new location, Barrel House Cafe & Bar on 14th Street. The event will be on Thursday, October 2, at 6:30pm.

First Thursday Drinks are a low-key event where you can enjoy a great mix of alumni of all ages, degree programs, and life experiences, with lots to discuss in a friendly and easygoing environment. Catch up with old friends and make new ones!

Newcomers Welcome: If you are new in DC or this is your first time at a Cambridge event, make sure to email cantabsocdc@gmail.com ahead of time and we'll see that you are greeted and introduced to folks on your arrival. Bring your friends and family - everyone with an alumni connection is welcome!

Please find us with a sign that says "Cambridge Society of Washington DC". If you get there right at 6:30 or if you do not see another Cantab, don't run away! The rest will be there shortly.

Barrel House Cafe & Bar is located at 1341 14th St. NW Washington, DC 20005, and is equidistant (15min walk) from both the McPherson Square metro stop (Blue/Orange/Silver Line) and the U Street Metro stop (Green Line). The use of public transport and/or ride-share services is encouraged.

We are looking forward to seeing you there!
