“Dear PoPville
A friend and I were recently lamenting the loss of happy hour culture post-covid. Not so much a comment on the quality of happy hour options in DC, but that the way people gather/socialize has naturally shifted away from the bar to the highboy or cocktail table. At least in our recent experience, it seems like folks are typically going out within their own social bubble, and not necessarily interested in meeting others. That, or it’s a bunch of 20-somethings getting wasted. No judgement, I used to be one of those 20-somethings! But I’m looking for a little more low-key these days. Looking for recommendations on solid happy hour (or late night) neighborhood bars that strike a balance between the two!“

Thanks to John for sending: “Sign outside Harvest Tide in Eastern Market. Seems like Harold Black Speakeasy (upstairs at the former Acqua al 2) will be resurrected?”
Hmmm, maybe related to the Side Door at Pub and the People in Bloomingdale?

“Regarding the name, we want to avoid creating confusion with another small business in the area; therefore, we will choose a new name for our speakeasy. We will announce it in the next few days!” (more…)
Parcel B at Audi Field courtesy Hoffman & Associates
From a press release:
“Today, Hoffman & Associates, a leading developer of innovative mixed-use and residential communities across the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast, including the $3.6 billion Washington, DC waterfront neighborhood The Wharf, along with its partner D.C. United, announced that the newest location of the one-of-a-kind entertainment concept Brooklyn Bowl is coming to Parcel B at Audi Field, which is located just outside of the stadium between Gate A and Gate B. The first retail concept announced for this dynamic mixed-use development, Brooklyn Bowl will span two floors and anchor the double-sided retail and entertainment corridor between Parcel B and Audi Field, activating the center of the neighborhood with an energy that will enhance the space and bring people from across the city and region.
“When we made the decision to invest in a stadium in downtown Washington, DC we were very intentional in our efforts to acquire additional land surrounding Audi Field to further develop the Southwest neighborhood of the city,” said Jason Levien, Co-Chairman and CEO of D.C. United. “Brooklyn Bowl is one of the most vibrant destinations for entertainment in the marketplace and we’re excited to introduce them to the community as a neighbor to Audi Field.”
Brooklyn Bowl DC will be the first location in the DC metro area and the fifth location for this genre-defying entertainment concept, which opened in Brooklyn, New York in 2009. Featuring a 1,200 person capacity concert venue, Brooklyn Bowl DC’s 38,000 square-foot location will connect the ground and second floor, bringing to the District a broad mix of sought-after live music programmed by Live Nation, 14 lanes of bowling, a craft bar and a menu curated by New York City’s Blue Ribbon Restaurant Group. With the incredible proximity of the bowling lanes and concert stage, Brooklyn Bowl will offer a unique experience of enjoying a show while eating, drinking and bowling with friends. (more…)
