“Dear PoPville,
BOSS store downtown closed. That didn’t last long! Signage removed and the store is empty.”
BOSS opened in the former Express Edit space in Downtown/Penn Quarter (11th and F Street, NW) in 2025. Updates when we learn who takes over the space next.

Around 10:20pm in Adams Morgan a reader asked: “Does anyone know what’s going on in #AdMo at the Line Hotel? This is the scene outside my apt, helicopters circling above and cops lined along Champlain St NW.”

Again, tell your friends, tell ’em PoPville told you. And prepare your pets.

Goodness. From an email:
“Beginning Saturday, April 11th, Desert 5 Spot DC is debuting a brand new brunch service. The new menu leans into the bar’s signature Western spirit–equal parts laid-back and a little unruly–and arrives just in time for spring.
The menu brings that energy to the table with brunch specials like Chicken & Waffles, a Smoked Brisket Breakfast Burrito, and Buttermilk Pancakes. There’s also another addition that feels destined to steal the spotlight: a fully self-serve, build-it-yourself Bloody Mary Bar (more…)
