1501 K Street, NW
Thanks to Jonathan for sending: “the Cosi at 15th & K NW appears to have closed. This is how I found it when I tried to stop in today for lunch (pic taken through locked door)”
Cosi’s website says this location is “CLOSED, Please visit us at our 910 17th Street NW, location”
Holy cow is the 17th Street location the last Cosi left in DC?!? There was a time…

“Dear PoPville,
Any intel on why Kenny’s bbq on the Hill has suddenly closed. One day a week or so ago they just stopped opening. Very abrupt. Thanks!”
Oh wow I hadn’t heard this but Kenny’s website and phone are no longer active and google has them listed as permanently closed too: (more…)

Super sad news from Smoke & Barrel:
“WE ARE CLOSING
It is with heavy heart that I announce the end of our story. Smoke & Barrel opened in 2011 with great beer and bourbon served alongside smoked meats and smoked vegan dishes creating a unique vibe that catered to most everyone. (more…)
421 East Capitol Street, SE
Martin sends the sad news:
“Congress Market, my favorite neighborhood bodega, is closing its doors. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve popped in here over the nearly ten years I’ve lived on Capitol Hill, and I guarantee you I turn the corner of 5th and East Capitol and try and pop in again out of habit at least a few more times. What a loss.”
2616 Connecticut Ave, NW
“Dear PoPville,
I recently overheard a conversation inside ACE Hardware in Woodley Park. A staff member was telling a customer that the store would be closing permanently in a month or two, because it had never made a profit in its 10 year history. Say it ain’t so!”
The owners sadly confirm the coming closing: “We will be closing in August and our team members will be transferred to another one of our locations if they would like to continue to work with us.” (more…)
11th and P Street, NW
“Dear PoPville,
I’m hoping someone has more info about what happened! It hasn’t stopped being busy from what I can tell (and I walk by it multiple times a day usually), even saw the owner/ family getting their daughter from the school nearby a few weeks ago still, so it just seemed to come out of nowhere. (more…)
2309 Calvert Street, NW
“Dear PoPville,
I stopped by the CVS at the corner of Connecticut and Calvert the other day and saw some workers actively taking down Afghan Grill’s signage. Their “open” neon sign was lit though! Any idea if they are closed for good or, hopefully, just replacing their old signs with new ones?”
I stopped by over the weekend and the space has been completely cleaned out: (more…)
