White House Happy Hours
Happy Hours at the White House Mess
If the President is available, he sometimes drops by for a cold beer before heading off to dinner. Other guests often include Cabinet members and their staff.
In this casual atmosphere, staffers discuss ideas they have for new programs and initiatives. The basic framework for President Obama's health care reform was built from notes scribbled on a napkin at one of these happy hours.
In a spirit of openness and transparency, President Obama invites you to join him for Happy Hours at the White House Mess.
Happy Hours are held every Friday from
5PM - 7PM in the White House Mess, which is located in the basement of the West Wing.
Advanced reservations are required. For more information about the Mess including directions and reservations, visit the Dine at the White House Mess page on this website.

Nope, this is not the official website of The White House. It's a parody of whitehouse.gov. No person, department, or agency of the U.S. Government
approved, endorsed, or authorized this site. No animals were harmed while making this website (except maybe
that one time when I was a little late feeding my dog his dinner).
