Thanks to David for sending. And big thanks to Holtby and the CAPS for being awesome last night.
From Busboys:
“Busboys and Poets invites the DC community to participate in a conversation about race and racial bias when they dine at any of our locations on Tuesday, May 29, 2018. Diners will be given prompt cards with phrases or questions to promote an open dialogue about how each person at their table has experienced or witnessed racial bias, how we can check our own biases, and how these behaviors impact those around us.

Ashleigh asked:
“Is Philz Coffee still planning to open a location in Dupont Circle?”
Philz with the good word:
“We sure are! We will be opening our doors in late Summer/early Fall.”
Back in October we learned that this Philz will be coming to the former Cosi that closed back in 2014. This will be a third location for Philz in D.C. after Adams Morgan and Navy Yard.
Thanks to Chad for sending from K street NW in between 4th and 5th next to the Baked Joint.
Joe & The Juice’s first D.C. location opened up at 15th and K Street, NW back in March. Check out their menus here. Another cafe is also coming to 1100 17th Street, NW.
Thanks to all who’ve messaged about the Blue Bottle progress in Union Station. I’m told they’re shooting for a summer opening. Here’s a couple renderings by The Lawrence Group:

“Dear PoPville,
It looks like the building that houses Qualia is on the market. The listing makes it sound like tenants won’t be sticking around.”
From Qualia Coffee’s owner Joel Finkelstein:
“Our lease is expiring near the end of 2019 and I have chosen not to renew it. We have been in business in that location for just over nine years now, the past four continuously. As anyone who has visited Qualia on a busy day may attest, the physical space simply is not equipped to handle the level of traffic we are now seeing. (more…)

From a press release:
“Small Planes Coffee is excited to open the doors of our roasting facility to the public! In June 2017, Small Planes Coffee began roasting coffee at 2400 T St NE near the National Arboretum. We are now thrilled to welcome our northeast DC neighbors, Arboretum visitors, and coffee lovers throughout the region into our roastery on Saturdays from 9am-2pm
Each week, we will choose one coffee from our catalog to brew. That featured coffee will be on sale as a 12 ounce bag of whole beans at a discounted $9.99 price. Visitors will also be able to select from the rest of our whole bean offerings and home brewing equipment. We are currently pairing our coffee with sweet and savory kolaches from Republic Kolache.
