A couple of weeks ago, I mentioned that Dupont Circle was getting a new coffee shop called Filter located at 1726 20th St, NW. I was able to swing by and chat with owner Rasheed Jabr on Friday.
Filter has received nearly all of their permits and hopes to open this Thursday, March 12th. It might be worth calling just to make sure they’re open if you want to stop by on Thurs. (202-234-5837). Filter will be open from 7am – 7pm seven days a week.
This is a proper coffee shop along the lines of Peregrine, Qualia, Mid City Caffe etc.
In addition to coffee, tea will also be available as will some pastries. While bagels will not be available, they will be providing daily fresh Faselle (a type of bread) that can be served with butter, jam and/or cream cheese.
And of course Wifi will be available.
As always the photos will do more justice than I can:
More photos after the jump including coffee and tea menus.
Artwork will rotate every 4 – 6 weeks. Currently on display is work by Sheila Mahoutchian.
