And a very happy Friday prior to a three day weekend to all!! My goodness this is great news for Truxton Circle/Bloomingdale/LeDroit Park and fellow drinkers throughout the District of Columbia. When Truxton Inn announced their closure last June folks were understandable bummed. Fortunately, the best possible scenario has come true for the neighborhood – a proper neighborhood bar is coming to be called Gold Clover Bar. I sat down last night for a brief chat with John Solomon and Neil Morgan of Solly’s (obviously.) (more…)

From an email:
“First, last year’s Krampus Pop-Up is BACK this year in our cellar speakeasy, The Side Door. It’s a fun spin on the well-worn holiday pop-up. Everybody knows Santa, who rewards good little children with presents, but have you heard of Santa’s counterpart, Krampus, who punishes the naughty kids?

(It’s still visually a holiday theme, of course.) Here’s a sample of the new and improved holiday cocktail menu (which in total is 18 cocktails): (more…)
