14th and Quincy St, NW (next to Red Derby)
UPDATE: Kevin from Lyman’s now says that the Post “jumped the gun” a bit and is not opening at 11am today. Should be soon though. Will update when I hear directly from Kevin. Sorry about the false excitement. If all goes with a few minor details they could be open by 5pm today.
Update: Opened at 630pm!
We took a sneak peek of the sweet space exactly a month ago. The wait ends today soon! Washington Post reports:
“Lyman’s Tavern opens for business at 11 a.m. Monday.
It’s a one-room saloon with half a dozen draft beers, four pinball machines, a killer jukebox and free popcorn fresh from a popper behind the bar.”
A couple weeks ago Lyman’s teased us with a shot of their pinball machines on Facebook:
While Red Derby has set the bar extremely high for great neighborhood spots, it looks like Lyman’s will be an exceptionally worthy neighbor – can’t wait to finally see for myself!
How the space looked in October 2012:
