“Dear PoPville,
Was woken up by a barrage of helicopters over Adam’s Morgan around 6am. Not sure if it was the same ones circling but at least 5 flyovers in 20 minutes. Any idea what’s going on? Thank you!”

2446 18th Street, NW Roofers Union opened back in February 2014 before them this space was the longtime home to the legendary Reef
From Roofers Union:
“It is with great sorrow that we announce the upcoming closure of Roofers Union on November 19th.
When we started this project more than ten years ago, we set out to create a neighborhood destination with craft food and drink. We are proud of all the amazing moments we’ve been a part of, from celebratory nights out and brunches to beer dinners and weddings. (more…)
I still can’t believe we’ve been doing this for 17 years!?! Time flies as they say. Alas, kinda like during the heat of the pandemic, it doesn’t feel like a super celebratory time – but that’s the nice thing about beer – you can have one in good times and in bad/sad. As I said last time – I do want to thank you for sticking around for so many years!
Please do keep your tips, emails, photos etc. coming! [[email protected] or @PoPville on social media.] I couldn’t do this without you guys. And if you are in place to contribute to our long term survival please consider joining our Patreon. Whether you are able to give $2 or $20 a month it all helps. And you’ll get a bonus PoPville Plus + post every Wednesday. Got some good scuttlebutt for you in today’s plus +.
Another good way to help out is to sign up for our free daily newsletter so you never miss a post. If you want to pick up a shirt or other merch you can do so here.
So nothing too crazy this year, just heading back to a spot close to my heart before they close this location – so maybe see a few of you at Looking Glass Lounge tomorrow night (3634 Georgia Ave, NW I’ll be there around 6-10pm.) Cheers!
Thanks to CK for sending this absolute beauty: (more…)
