Well this stinks. Washingtonian reports:
“Uprising Muffin Company will shut down its Shaw cafe after July 27 and move operations to TasteLab, a food incubator and commercial kitchen space in Brookland, where it will focus on catering and eventually wholesale.”
Uprising’s website says:
“Seriously simple, fresh and delicious, our goodies each start from scratch with 10 ingredients or less and no preservatives, artificial colors or fake flavors. Prepared only by Certified Baristas, we serve the highest quality coffee because we know with great food, comes great responsibility to keep the masses caffeinated. Come enjoy our wifi, chill vibe, great music and smiling faces.”
They opened outside the Shaw metro back in April 2014. Updates when we learn what becomes of the space.
Ed. Note: We’re also still waiting to learn what will become of the former Drift space (previously Fishnet) next door.
