425 11th St, NW
The former Chapters Literary Bookstore space at 425 11th St, NW will soon be filled with a new specialty sandwich shop called White Apron (not to be confused with Red Apron coming to nearby 709 D St, NW).
The space near the E Street Cinema has been vacant since at least 2009.

Looking towards 11th and E St, NW

The $5 pours are for some more unusual beers that come in 22oz or 700ml bottles, and...
Those people will be stuck in the rat race forever. Enjoy poverty!
Sherman Ave looks fantastic now. I love all the median plantings and new trees. And...
bravo!
I’m assuming this will be another crappy corporate restaurant that will fit in quite nicely with all the other crappy corporate restaurants in Penn Quarter. And since it doesn’t try to make juvenile jokes like Meatballs did, it will probably last.
You have such a wonder disposition. I bet you have lots of friends that adore you.
hehe
This sounds really mediocre from the offerings rendered in the drawing: creamy-smooth hummus, garlic-punchy bean paste, freshly blended mayo, cool tangy tzatziki (more action happening from the descriptors). Sigh. Full disclosure: I’m not much of a sandwich person unless they are out of this world. I hope it’s great but not feeling super confident with the teaser.
any news on the opening date or menu?
as a vegetarian, i am super excited that they are selling themselves with hummus, tzaziki, etc. YUM!
Oh! A sandwich place! Now that’s something we’re lacking. *eyeroll*
Was this where the Wagamama was going and never did?
Oh please say it isn’t so. My dreams for W are dashed!?
No, the Wagamama is allegedly going on 7th St, between E and D. The signs are still up, however my hopes are not.
My Wagamama dream deferred…
Damn, I usually stand in front of that door waiting for the 63 or 63 bus.
This is great-a place to get a sandwich while waiting for the 64 to show (or not).
425 11th is the new wine shop – (a former Ritz Camera location). White Apron is at 445 11th.
