1827 Adams Mill Road, NW, prior to Foxtrot this space was home to a Philz coffee, which closed back in January 2023. Prior to Philz this space was a gas station and I used to buy Parliament lights, (yes I grew up on Strong Island), there on my way to Angles (RIP) but enough about me.
“Compass Coffee is moving into space formerly occupied by Foxtrot in Adams Morgan. Guy loading in with Compass van said they’re opening Friday.”

Scott writes August 1st: “Absolute DAGGER restaurant news. Mi Cuba Cafe in Columbia Heights has closed permanently. This was the best Cuban in DC and a great space. Best mojito around. Was planning to hold my 40th bday next year in the upstairs. Sucks so, so bad :(”
