Thanksgiving Brunch on Top of the Hay
A Thanksgiving brunch buffet at Top of the Hay in Washington DC, associated with The Lafayette.

The six-seat guided cocktail hour at The Bench in Off The Record includes seasonal cocktails, guided tastings, and light bites, with tickets priced at $80.
This event is built around a compact cocktail-hour format: six seats, a guided tasting structure, and a setting at The Bench in Off The Record. Off The Record is a Washington DC bar, and The Lafayette is the restaurant associated with the event.
The series format is described as a guided cocktail hour held on the last Tuesday of the month. For this edition, the focus stays on the November program rather than a broad restaurant service or open-ended bar visit. It is a reserved, small-format session centered on drinks and guided tasting, with no general drop-in admission.
The November theme is “Cozy November: warm, seasonal cocktails for crisp Autumn evenings.” The program includes guided tastings and light bites, so the stated food component is limited to light bites rather than a full meal.
The theme centers on the season and the style of the drinks.
The event is in Washington DC and is scheduled for the November 2026 edition. The Lafayette is listed at 800 16th St NW, Washington, DC 20006, and the ticket price is $80 per person. The booking path is through the event page associated with The Lafayette and the Washington DC listing.
The available timing information places the session in the early evening and gives it a one-hour window. The format is short by design: a guided cocktail hour rather than a multi-hour dinner, performance, or class.
