Three Whistles DC, a thoughtfully designed space to eat, drink, work and gather, will officially celebrate its grand opening on Wednesday, February 25.

Founded in Clarendon, Virginia, the first Three Whistles location quickly became known for blending café culture, flexible work environments, and a strong sense of community.

The Three Whistles DC team has put together an award-winning food and beverage program with Chef John Mohl, formerly of Virginia’s Darling and Stracci, at the helm for food and Keith Butler, previously a coffee roaster with Grace Street Coffee, leading the café. (more…)

As they are now faced with financial challenges due to the unexpected closure, I’ve started a GoFundMe to help with the unforeseen expenses.”
