925 U Street, NW at Vermont Ave

Yesterday we learned that Juicy King Crab House was coming to Adams Morgan and today we got the press release (actually sent yesterday but I didn’t want to overwhelm you) for the Chesapeake Crab Shack & Bar. Back in January we shared the news that “an outdoor-focused fun concept with guest seating exclusively outside. Full bar with local beers only” was coming here. Now all the details:

“Chesapeake, a new crab shack and seafood house with a full bar, is coming to the heart of U Street later this year. The new restaurant, from the owners of Duke’s Grocery, Duke’s Counter and Gogi Yogi, will feature a casual dockside vibe along with a variety of shellfish options and a vibrant bar scene. Guests can expect fresh squeezed crushes, and all beers will be locally sourced from breweries in the District, Maryland and Virginia. Read More
