Outside Residents Cafe on the 18th Street. Their website says:
“Tucked away in the heart of Dupont Circle, in Washington D.C., Residents is a charming cafe & bar offering Washingtonians and travelers an exquisite indoor and outdoor dining and cocktail experience. The name Residents stems from our founders who were once immigrants and became Residents of this wonderful country and incredible city. We hope our guests become residents of Residents!
Residents offers a casual-chic cocktail and dining experience with a keen focus on high-quality, seasonal ingredients. We believe less is more and offer a cocktail and dining experience patrons won’t soon forget. Residents is a multi-sensory experience that involves all five senses: vision, touch, sound, smell, and taste. To include curated house playlists throughout the day and into the night. We skillfully use greenery to create a stunning and perfect ambiance with a beautiful array of plants. We can’t wait to see you.”
