The Passenger, a hip, laid-back drinks destination, arrives tonight in the former Warehouse Theater bar space near Mt. Vernon Square, where quaffers can sip a customized cocktail (there’s no set list), beer or offbeat wine and sample snacks like a panini or kimchi hot dog; low lighting, exposed brick and old-timey booths create a transporting vibe, abetted by arty photos of fleeting movement; coming soon: a re-created dining car at the rear, plus a ‘lab’ for co-owner/mixologist Derek Brown.
