Sad Scoop: Cava Closing in Shaw after Friday’s Service. An Almost Ten Year Run Coming to an End.


1921 8th Street, NW

Thanks to Thom for sending the tip: ” The Cava in Shaw is closing on Friday. Another business down in the Shay! Heard it directly from the employees. They were sharing it to all customers. Letting everyone know.”

Ed. Note: I also called and confirmed Friday is their last day in Shaw. Cava opened here back in December 2016.

Updates when we learn who takes over the space.

When they first opened here they wrote:

“CAVA, the rapidly expanding fast casual restaurant brand, will open a new location in the trendy Shaw area at The Shay Building on 8th St NW, on Tuesday, December 20. This represents the 23rd restaurant for CAVA, and the 5th in DC where it has proved wildly popular since opening their first fast casual restaurant in 2011. This restaurant will be CAVA’s Innovation Kitchen, a creative space where the brand will test new menu items and technology, and host community events.”
