“Dear PoPville,
Last night Lindy’s Red Lion was closed up tight!!!
Downstairs carry out Lindy’s Bon Appetit looked like maybe it’d suffered flooding or a fire, everything in disarray through window.
Foggy Bottomers know anything about this?
Joint is a needed old school counter to all that West End/Foggy Bottom development fueled options around there….”
Ed. Note: A call to the store is unanswered but that’s not completely unusual. Anyone know what’s up?

On July 12th the the Gods were unkind. A painful week later – we are finally good again. Power has been restored at Solly’s!! And there was great joy in PoPville. Catch The Perfectionists tonight – no cover!!

From an email:
“Walters, formerly on Georgia ave is popping up at the All Star game at 1221 Van St SE. The pop-up gathering will include a beer garden and full bar in a space at a building at the corner of South Capital and N Streets, S.E. that next spring will be the future home of Walters Sports Bar. The location is directly across the street from Nationals Stadium.
“Among the events scheduled to take place during that five-day period will be a first-of-its-kind LGBTQ Pride Baseball Pop-Up bar hosted by the Washington Blade, which this year became the first LGBT publication to serve as an official sponsor of MLB All-Star Week.
Aimed at serving as a safe space for LGBTQ attendees 21 and older, the pop-up will be open: (more…)

Capitol Cider House is nearly here! From their website:
“At Capitol Cider House, we do cider right. No added chemicals or preservatives. Only showcasing producers within 200 miles of the Capitol building. Always gluten free. Not too sweet. More like a fine wine than a popsicle.
All our goods are sourced from within 200 miles of the US Capitol Building. We have a few of our own concoctions and many ciders from Mid-Atlantic producers that are otherwise hard to find in DC. Our menu is always changing, but we’re always keeping it local.
We invite you to visit our brand new production space and tasting room at 3930 Georgia Avenue. Chill out on our patio, play a round of shuffleboard and enjoy a snack while sampling a flight of regional ciders. Kids are welcome, and friendly dogs can hang out in our outside space.”
They should be open in the next week or so but I’ll be updating when I get an exact opening date. A few other things before checking out all the photos of the amazing space. A big patio is coming. There will be food – starting with Empanadas and Rotis (and hot dogs for the kids) from food trucks. There will be 10 ciders on tap, 1 mead, 1 beer plus cans, bottles, wine and some cocktails. Now check out the amazing space:

From a press release:
“A year ago, plus a few months, a friend asked me if I would be interested in purchasing one of our favorite Adams Morgan watering holes, The Black Squirrel in Adams Morgan. As a longtime patron and diehard fan of craft beer, I couldn’t resist. Now, as the neighborhood has changed, we feel it is time for us to make a change as well. On July 31st The Black Squirrel in Adams Morgan will open its doors for the last time as preparation begins to remodel the space and release a new concept to the Adams Morgan Neighborhood, Seasons & Sessions, in early September. Seasons & Sessions builds on the legacy The Black Squirrel established in D.C., while upgrading our dining areas and kitchen, Seasons, and expanding our nightly entertainment Sessions.
For over a decade, The Black Squirrel in Adams Morgan has been a mainstay of craft beer; one of the first of its kind in the whole city and still the record holder for most tap lines in D.C. (more…)
