Stay tuned.

“Kirk and I are very excited to share that we’ll be opening a brand new Captain Cookie store at Eastern Market! Our official public opening will be Thursday, July 2 at 11am, and we will be open that day until 10pm. These will be our daily hours (open 7 days a week) until more people return to DC as reopening continues – at that point we anticipate expanding our hours. (more…)

Yesterday afternoon we shared some scuttlebutt about Adams Morgan’s Wawa likely closing next month. Turns out it’ll be sooner than that. A reader reports: “Just wanted to let you know that I confirmed Wawa is closing this coming Sunday for good. Sounds as though all employees will be transferred to other locations.”
Ed. Note: Some of the staff will likely be moved to the coming Thomas Circle location.
Update: Another reader hears closing “July 5th a manger told me yesterday. They are blaming it on Coronavirus and moving staff to NEW Thomas Circle store.”
Prior to Wawa this space was home to BicycleSpace, who was only here briefly, and also Slaviya and also Leftbank back in the day, Cities.
Updates when we learn what becomes of the space.

Word on the street is that they may be permanently leaving the strip sometime next month. Wawa only opened up here in September. Updates when/if more is known.
Prior to Wawa this space was home to BicycleSpace, who was only here briefly, and also Slaviya for a minute and back in the day, Cities. Cities of course was awesome.
