Entrepreneurs – Prime Upshur Retail Space Available for $1500 per Month
828 Upshur St, NW
For a hot second we thought a bakery would be coming to this space but that apparently fell through. What would you like to see in this space – a bakery or a restaurant/bar or something else?

murder is always scary and horrible. always.
A nice Italian place, maybe something like 2 Amys.
+1
Pretty sure this was already leased….. don’t know what it will be though…
We’d love to see a new restaurant – ethiopian or indian, perhaps!
I live right around the corner. It would be nice to have a pub type place serving american bar food. I love Domku but have already exhausted the menu.
Between Looking Glass, DC Reynolds, and soon-to-be Buzz, it seems Petworth already has enough Pub type places – not to mention Meridian Pint and The Coupe…
Looking Glass and DC Reynolds are in Park View, not Petworth.
Yup! but it is close
how large is it?
Loopnet says it’s 600 square feet. Can that be right?
Sorry, bad info. I registered with Loopnet, which reports that it’s 792 sq ft.
so about 23 per square foot/ year ( if my math is correct)
seems a decent deal, right?
Two words: Moby Dick
I would love to get a decent kabob around the corner from me!
If that happened, I would weigh 700 pounds.
A steakhouse or pasta place geared toward the ladies.
what does “geared towards the ladies” mean when talking about restaurants?
A kid-friendly restaurant, complete with play area for the kids and a bar for the adults.
McDonalds?
someone should take advantage of that as a home rental. Thats about average for the area.
A diner.
Like the one directly across the street?
There is no diner on Upshur Street that I know of.
Open City Diner, I think it’s called.
Open Kitchen Diner.

Yes, a bakery!
Bagels?
Ethiopian/Salvadoran: fish tacos in injera.
i would eat that a lot.
El Torogoz is Salvadorian and is around the corner on 9th. Haven’t been there yet, but the side walk seating is always packed on nice days.
liquor store
Duffy’s II, KBC II, Red Derby II, or Stoney’s II.
Thank you.
How about another frozen yogurt place?!?!?!?!??!
Do storefronts exist for any other reason than stuffing your face anymore, or is brick and mortar completely dead except for food and drink? I’m as bad as anyone on this count, I buy most clothes, home goods, appliances and electronics online now. So in my opinion this street needs a business that will take deliveries for you and hold for pickup, so they don’t get stolen off of the porch.
I would be totally down for that
A decent Chinese carry out that isn’t like the rest of the poor quality up and down the avenue.
Seriously, if there’s one thing Petworth desperately lacks, its Chinese Carryout options.
Kite store.
Italian or TexMex!
I have been waiting for a place in this area for the past 3 years. So I called as soon as I saw the posted sign but I was apparently two days to late. I was told that it was going to be a restaurant.
Forget a bakery or bar, we need a yoga studio in our ‘hood. I hope our friends at Yoga District are looking to expand!
There’s one up Georgia Ave. near Decatur.
Golden Heart is really nice.

I agree, it’s such a bleak, run-down strip that could use something really nice for a change!
Sushi?
