Last week we learned that Dacha Beer Garden was looking to open a second location at 923-25 5th Street, NW. The Mt. Vernon Triangle blog reports some more info from a “memo from the owners (DACI Enterprises LLC) that was shared with the ANC”:

“An open air beer garden style sitting area will be location in the front behind the existing wall and within the perimeter of the private property.

Estimate capacity will be approximately 300 people.

Hours of Operation will be Monday through Sunday from 8 am to 2am.”

I was curious where exactly that was – so here are some photos I took on Saturday. They hope to be located right by the recently opened Silo restaurant which is the single story red brick building to the right in the photo below:

To the north it will sit next to the former Louis Rogue building now home to the Cloakroom strip club:
