So no one commented on the name?

Maybe I missed it on a previous post about this place, but Brixton isn’t the best name for the place.

It’s like calling an American place in London “Watts”.

I absolutely agree with your point on the interiors. I’m happy to see that something was done with this property but this design aesthetic is tired and redundant. A reminder of the conservative bland nature of DC design. It would be nice to see something more progressive and inspiring.

Good that the interior design is excellent, as the exterior architecture is absolutely hideous!

“There isn’t one single place in the entire stretch that serves consisently tasty and affordable food.”

Not one eh:
old: Little Fountain Cafe, Meze, Bukom Cafe, Bardo’s, Mezkerem
newer: The Diner, Oaxaca, black squirrel, A’dam falaffel shop

On columbia road:
mixtec, granja de oro, and of course, the Astor

Gosh I hope Adams Morgan is dropping in popularity.

That would be awesome for me.Please keep the trendy hip expensive new chain places moving into U and H Streets.

+1 to the OP regarding all of their spaces. Spot on assessment. These days I’m happy to meet at one for a drink on a deck, but beyond that no thanks.
