A reader passes on the sad news from Paste & Rind yesterday:
“I’m writing with some tough news.
After deep and painful consideration, I’ve arrived at the decision to indefinitely suspend bar operations at the end of this year and all operations in early 2026.
– We will have regular bar hours through December except for Christmas Day (Thursday 12/25), with our last service being Sunday 12/28.
– We will continue to operate our stand at the Trinidad Market through December and into 2026 as we work through inventory.
-We will also be at the Arboretum Winter Festival & Christmas Tree Sale 2025 this Saturday 12/6 and the Procrastinator’s Holiday Market on Saturday 12/20.
– Our last Trolley Club boxes will be picked up or delivered the first week of January.
To everyone who has supported me and patronized Paste & Rind over the course of this journey, thank you thank you thank you from the bottom of my heart. (more…)

D Light first opened here back in November 2021. Went through some tough times over the years.
“Dear PoPville,
I was walking in Adams Morgan yesterday and came across the owner of Dlight cafe whom I know well. She informed me that they have permanently closed down. So unfortunate for the neighborhood. It was sold by the original Ukrainian sisters to this owner in January 2024. (more…)

Update from the broker: “We are exploring options throughout Dupont right now that we think the existing ATP will appreciate that have the ability to launch a solid food menu and continue to be a neighborhood soccer and sports destination, but we haven’t made any decisions on the space yet.
Will definitely be before the World Cup!”
Wowza. OK the tipsters have come through with Across the Pond/Sign of the Whale news.
Yesterday we broke the news that Across the Pond had closed on Connecticut Ave but would likely be moving somewhere in the neighborhood. After earlier posting that the Sign of the Whale‘s business license had been canceled an ANC rep teased us, “You came close to solving this today” after previously telling us “Another bar in the neighborhood is planning to relocate there after doing some renovations. I don’t think it’s public yet so I’ll hold off on revealing which one.”
Other tipsters came through with the goods (more…)
