Inside 1331 Pennsylvania Ave, NW “The former Secret Starbucks” by Deidre Lipsicas
DEVELOPING: “It’s moved to around the corner in the gift shop, same floor.”

Thanks to a reader for sending word that “the Starbucks at 18th and I Street, NW is closing April 1st. It always seemed busier than others downtown.”

4400 Georgia Ave, NW at Webster
“Dear PoPville,
Just tried Buna coffeehouse on Georgia and Webster (replaces Uneeda market) and it was pretty legit. Great coffee (carry Swings) and great variety of food from pastries to Ethiopian options. They had their soft opening 3 weeks ago but will have their grand opening this Saturday. They will also start introducing Ethiopian coffee ceremonies after the grand opening. Also carry gelato (watch out lulubelles).
Sausage egg and cheese bagel did the trick for me too.
Hope this place succeeds.”

Thanks to Dave for sending:
“did we know we were getting a Compass in old Georgetown theater on Wisconsin?!”
Stay tuned for an opening date.
