Bartender’s choice: “Feel like crêpe tonight?”The Press Club helps you gain back those lost brain cells. This erudite yet welcoming cafe and bar offers periodicals from all over the world, as well as monthly art shows and esoteric movie nights. Bottled beers ($3.50-$7) range from Stella Artois to fruity Lambics, and the Press Club offers wines by the glass ($5-$11) as well as the bottle, most in the $30 range. Add a selection of delicious sandwiches, salads and crepes, not to mention wi-fi, and you’ll never have any reason to leave. We’re typing this from the Press Club now, actually. HAPPY HOUR, DRINK/FOOD SPECIALS, OUTDOOR SEATING, MOVIES, WI-FI. (CM)
