We took a very early look at Ivy and Coney’s new retractable roof deck last week. I’m happy to report they’re now open:

Ivy and Coney’s new retractable roof deck is almost done. It took a little longer than expected (and obviously finishing touches are ongoing) but it turned pretty damn nice. There’s a pool table under this tarp:

Separate outdoor bar (not to mention new kitchen.) Pardon the language but Bull Durham fans will be happy:
Stay tuned for an exact opening date very soon.

The Reading Room will be open from 7pm – Midnight.
Daniel Searing and Carlie Steiner will launch special Thursday night events starting on November 5th. More details on Thursday nights will be available soon.
Petworth Citizen was opened by Paul W. Ruppert in September 2013 as a neighborhood bar with craft cocktails and innovative bar food.
Jerry Zawacki, who recently became chef, is creating a special bar snacks menu for this series.
Chantal Tseng is passionate about telling stories with her cocktails and linking them to classic literature. She is a founder of Mockingbird Hill and Red Eye Menus, a recognized sherry expert and a collector of vintage cocktail books.

Happy Anniversary Upshur Street Books – Party Sunday:
“I hope you might join us for our First Anniversary Open House on Sunday night from 6-8pm in the new Third Floor space above Slim’s [4201 Georgia Ave, NW].
One year ago on November 1st, Upshur Street Books became a part of the DC literary community. Since then many people have contributed to help make the bookstore a success: owner Paul Ruppert; manager Anna Thorn; our booksellers Karin, Lily, Peter, and Sara; our customers; and lots and lots of amazing authors. We did it!
A new independent, community bookstore is an achievement to be proud of. Thanks for being a part of it – now come help us celebrate!
The party will take place at our newest event space on the third floor of the forthcoming Slim’s Diner. There will be music by Paperhaus and Sean Barna, food, drinks, special discounts, and delightful bookish conversation. The bookstore will be open from 10am to 9pm.”
March on Georgia Ave, March on. Thanks to all who sent photos of the progress at Reliable Tavern the new spot marking Joe Englert’s return to Georgia Ave.

From ABRA:
“ABC-licensed on-premises establishments will get an extra hour to operate on Halloween this year as a result of Daylight Saving Time. Clocks fall back an hour from 2 am to 1 am on the morning of Sunday, November 1, which creates an extra hour. Establishments that normally operate at 2 am will automatically gain an additional hour to conduct business. Establishments will be required to stop all sales and service of alcoholic beverages by 3 am unless the establishment’s license states otherwise.”
600 T Street, NW
A liquor license placard has now been posted for the new cocktail bar coming to Shaw. It says 600 T will have room for about 30 and hours are listed as Sunday 12pm – 2am, Monday through Thursday 5pm – 2am, Friday 5pm – 3am and Saturday 12pm – 3am. Updates when more info becomes available.
Last week the note said:
“Our ANC forces us to limit the number of people in the garden to 126. Please tell your elected officials that you want Dacha’s capacity increased to 350”.
Stay tuned.
