Back in January Big Chair Coffee opened up in Anacostia (2122 Marthin Luther King Jr Ave SE) to much fan fare. It turns out they’d also like to add some more options and are applying for a liquor license. The application says:
“New restaurant serving American food and coffee with Sidewalk Café. Occupancy load is 52”
Restaurant hours including a sidewalk cafe will be open until 2am.
I wonder if they’ll have an easier time than another coffee shop trying to get an alcohol license?
