Some folks have been asking about where to watch the debates so here’s a few options I’ve got via email. If you know of other good spots please let us know.

Duffy’s Irish Pub will be showing them in the back room at 2106 Vermont Avenue, NW by the 9:30 Club.

Cashion’s Eat Place (1819 Columbia Road, NW): “We’ll be airing each of the first three debates (Oct. 3, Oct. 10, Oct. 16) with sound at the bar so guests can cheer on their candidate of choice while enjoying our new fall cocktails, Chef’s new bar menu, and our full dinner menu.”

The Lobby Bar at The Madison (1177 15th Street, NW): “The Republicans and Democrats may be battling it out on the road, but there’s no debate about it, the best place in D.C. to catch the Presidential and Vice Presidential debates is at the Lobby Bar at PostScript in the historic Madison hotel.

Catch all of the debates at the Madison while sipping on the Great Debate (Small Batch Bourbon, Blended Vermouth, Green Chartreuse, Orange Peel), created by Chief Mixologist Rob Yealu for $14.00.

Presidential and Vice Presidential Debate Schedule:
Presidential Debate, October 3, 2012, 9:00 pm – 10:30 pm

Marvin Expands Into 2nd Floor of Blackbyrd at 14th and U Street, NW

By Prince Of Petworth

Marvin, 2007 14th St, NW has expanded into the 2nd floor space of Blackbyrd at 2005 14th St, NW – from Marvin’s liquor license amendment:

“Expansion of the operation on the second floor to the adjacent building at 2005 14th Street, NW (additional 87 seats).”

The folks at Marvin tell me:

“The original lounge has been updated and converted to a private dining room and the new lounge, the former 2nd floor of Blackbyrd will be the home of the DJ booth. So we can now book private dinners up to 40 people; host late night events and created a better flow to the roofdeck spaces.”

Sweet.

I can’t believe it has already been five years since Marvin first opened at 14th and U Street.
