The 5pm Post – Happy Hour for Streetcars at Sova Tonight

By Prince Of Petworth

“Dear PoP,

I am a volunteer for the Washington, DC chapter of the Sierra Club. On August 18th at 6:00 p.m., the chapter will be holding a happy hour for streetcar supporters to celebrate recent victories (funding approved by DC Council and overhead wires legislation passed) and to discuss what next steps should be taken in our campaign to make streetcars a viable transportation for option for as many residents of the Washington, DC metro region as possible. The happy hour will take place at SOVA, located at 1359 H Street NE, an espresso and wine bar located along the route of the proposed H st.–Benning Rd. NE line.”

If you have a happy hour or event you’d like publicized in the 5pm post please send an email to princeofpetworth(at) gmail (dot) com with 5pm post in the title of the email.

I’ve scheduled the next PoP Happy Hour for Wed. Aug. 11th from 6:30pm – 10:30pm. Here’s what I’m thinking: I figure we can have parents with little kids swing by around 6:30 – 7:30pm and then properly defile ourselves from 8 on? I’ll have new PoP t-shirts on hand for people I owe and for those that want to purchase to some.

So here are the details – it’ll be at Duffy’s (a PoP advertiser) located right behind the 9:30 Club on Vermont Ave. Here are the specials:

$10 Pitchers of Miller lite
$2 Tall Boy PBR | High Life | Bud
$4 20oz Drafts of Guinness | Kilkenny | Yuengling | Sam’s | Sam’s Summer
$16 Pitchers of Yuengling | Sam’s | Sam’s Summer
1/2 Price Wings

See ya Wed. the 11th!

Best Happy Hour in the City? Gori Cafe on V Street, NW

By Prince Of Petworth

Gori Cafe is located at 1113 V Street, NW. I’m sure I’ve mentioned it before but after paying $8 for a drink last night I had to share this happy hour with you again. It may not be the coolest place in the city but I’m really digging this deal. Think it’s big enough to host the next PoP happy hour (to welcome spring and plan the next PoP clean up)?

Pete’s Apizza Now Offering Happy Hour

By Prince Of Petworth

One of the owners, Mike Wilkinson, tells me that Pete’s “is introducing a Happy Hour from 3:30 to 6:30, seven days a week. Slice of cheese or pepperoni pizza and a pint of beer for $5.” Holy cow that is awesome. Although it seems like people are just trying to torture me knowing that I work until 6pm. Ah, but it’s seven days a week, so you now know where you can catch me on Sundays. For those who haven’t been there yet Pete’s is located right above the Columbia Heights metro on the western exit.
