Good news for sports fans on the eastern end of H Street. I stopped in 6th and H Bar and Grill and was told they’ll be opening in April. The space was completely photo ready but I can tell you it is dominated by huge bar with tons of tvs every foot or so spanning the entire wall. There was also lots of soccer regalia and other sports memorabilia. Frankly it looks like a perfect sports bar – stay tuned for an exact opening date.
14th and Quincy St, NW
Nice!
Get ready for “a sidewalk café with 45 seats.”
Lyman’s Tavern is located at the corner of 14th and Quincy St, NW next to Red Derby.
