Thanks to Annie for letting us know:
“I just wanted to share that Harrar Coffee & Roastery in Park View is re-opening on Monday! They have been closed throughout the pandemic, only selling individual bags of beans through online orders, and also had some roadwork in front of the shop that delayed opening. The roadwork is now done and they’re back to normal hours for grab & go coffee or outdoor cafe seating, starting on Monday.”

Thanks to Tara for sending: “A welcome addition to Dupont Circle, in old Subway location on Connecticut and Q! Any more info?”
There’s a Facebook page but the menu has not been listed yet. Stay tuned for that and an opening date.

Bluestone looks to be temporarily closed based on the letter they posted – this happened in the last few days, I believe.” (more…)
