Points for dining/drinks?
Does anyone know if there is a way to earn Hyatt points while dining or drinking at a Hyatt hotel-based restaurant or bar? I'm a devotee of Starwood/SPG points and they allow you to manually submit receipts for additional Starwood point credits (above and beyond those I earn on their AMEX). But as Hyatt doesn't have a credit card, and my new office is right next to a Hyatt with both a restaurant and a bar, I would be more likely to dine at it if I knew I could get some points to apply to my Passport account.

Further on the above...
...I should also clarify that I would ONLY be eating/drinking there, not staying at the actual hotel. And yes, Starwood does offer point earning in that manner at its hotel restaurants/bars.

Incidentally, I just completed a stay at PH DC, I was told by a front desk agent that GPpoints are not earned on meals eaten in th Blue Duck Tavern? I did not want to wait around to ask any other agents as I had already made alternate lunch plans for a local restaurant with friends, but still found that interesting. Does anyone know if this is indeed the case?

Typically, shops, spas, garages and some restaurants don't earn points.

Otherwise TerryK is correct.

I received points for dining at Blue Duck Tavern. I'm not sure what was included or excluded.
