Last Thursday I mentioned Tynan would open Friday or Saturday of this week. Well, thanks to all the readers who sent in word about the above sign. Friday it is!

Yeah! Super nice folks running this place, I’m excited. The menu looks great:

Maybe I’m behind with the times but this is an interesting concept to me, has it ever been tried before? Seems to me like a Starbucks with better sounding food, alcohol, and (hopefully) better coffee and tea. Interesting…I’ll be sure to try it out though.

CH Resident, Brothers was like that in Cleveland Park before it went under.

Everybody! Something is going down at 16th & Kennedy Street NW. The right lanes on 16th going south towards downtown are blocked off. I see cops, fire trucks, ambulance, two empty metro buses, a car turned sideways across the lanes and possibly two other cars involved in something. I don’t know if its an accident, cop chase or what. Traffic is being diverted to the side streets. The northbound lanes on 16th are slow but passable.

Looks great. Tynan Johnson might be the most talented barista in the Washington area.
USA! USA!

Will the cappuccinos be less than $5 and not taste like dirt? That is the test.

CH Resident: The concept sounds pretty similar to Tryst in Adams Morgan. Hopefully Tynan’s will be somewhere near as awesome.

How “talented” can a barista possibly be? You scoop up some coffee, wrench it into a machine and press a button – maybe wiggle a little design in the foam – am I missing something?

what’s with the folded sign and the bag attached to your foot?

@FPA – It’s actually my picture – I can’t say why the sign is folded, but the bag at my feet is a Giant bag with a sack of dog food in it. I saw the sign on my way home from Target and thought the blogs would be interested.

Yup, sorry shoulda phrased the post better – thanks to AMT for the photo!
