1017 7th Street, NW
A liquor license application has been posted at 1017 7th St, NW in the former Ruppert’s Restaurant space next to Bicycle Space and nearby the Passenger. It says Temporary Works will be a:
“Restaurant serving all types of cuisine, alcoholic beverages with a seating capacity of 65and total occupancy load of 65.”
I spoke with one of the partners, Paul Ruppert, who explained that it will actually be a a restaurant accelerator and project space. It’s a bit similar to a pop up restaurant space except hopefully if the restaurant idea is successful here it will find a permanent home somewhere else in the city. Looking forward to seeing who the first resident will be. Stay tuned.
