Word on the street is that they may be permanently leaving the strip sometime next month. Wawa only opened up here in September. Updates when/if more is known.
Prior to Wawa this space was home to BicycleSpace, who was only here briefly, and also Slaviya for a minute and back in the day, Cities. Cities of course was awesome.
This rental is located at 301 M Street, SW. The Craigslist ad says:
“$2081 / 1br – 522ft2 – 1 Bedroom at The WARF! 2 Months FREE! LEASE NOW! (more…)
SPGM writes: “why are we getting charged $100 late fee when YOUR service center was closed preventing us from getting the service?” (more…)

From a press release:
“The team at Colada Shop is proud to announce the opening of Colada Shop in the District Wharf, a concept that has captured the hearts of Washingtonians by blending together the contemporary lifestyles of the city with the Cuban traditions of starting and ending the day. Paying homage to this Caribbean way of doing coffee, food, cocktails and social lifestyle, Colada Shop is a casual café and eatery where guests come for the quality of offerings and the unmatched hospitality. The third location of Colada Shop will open the first week of July, at 10 Pearl St SW, Washington, D.C.
“We are beyond excited to come to the District Wharf -one of D.C.’s most exciting neighborhoods”, said Daniella Senior, CEO of Colada Shop. “This new outpost will bring a more dynamic interpretation of our sister locations, but will have the same energy, vibrancy, and – of course – incredible Cuban bites and drinks.”
Seating 45 guests indoors and additional 40 patio seats , guests will be able to delight in an ingeniously crafted menu by Executive Chef Mario Monte and an exceptional beverage program conceived by Daniella Senior & Juan Coronado. (more…)

Oof. Thanks to G. for sending word that the Meggrolls signage has been removed from H Street, NE. Meggrolls only opened this past December. This is the former Red Ginger space and Shawafel before that.
