Update: “#margaritamiracle We planned to shutdown @chupacabraDC Saturday. Your support has changed that and we are able to stay open until Nov. Thank you, thank you, thank you!”

Chupacabra tweets the sad news:

“We are sad to announce the closing of @chupacabraDC next Sat 8/8/20. We have been part of the neighborhood for almost 10 years! Dine-in frozen margarita pitchers are now $15 until we close!

From a press release:

Pier 1354 will bring the feel of lazy days spent by the water to the middle of the city with a menu featuring an array of fresh picks from the Chesapeake Bay and beverage offerings including Stable’s signature frozen Schnapsicles and classic warm weather cocktails with a local spin. The nearly 2,000 square foot patio will lend a come-as-you-are, laid-back atmosphere where guests will be welcome to leisurely sip drinks while getting their hands dirty digging into a seafood feast in the outdoor oasis with an Eastern Shore vibe.

Thanks to J. and G. for sending word about Red Rocks H Street location closing: “Per an Employee of Red Rocks, H Street location is already permanently closed.”
