“Dear PoPville,
So, my husband and I went to brunch on Sunday and got a nasty surprise walking home. Jackie O’s has a delicious-sounding “unlimited” cocktail service for two hours. Since I’ve heard great things about the four cocktails in the deal, we decided to go for it. The unlimited cocktails cost $55, so pricey, but I figured 4 each would break even. (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
Common Good City Farm has expanded their Wednesday’s Farmers Market, and it’s really impressive! It feels like a little bit of the countryside right in the city. (more…)
“Dear PoPville,
Wanted to let the community know about a string of robberies that happened last night in Adams Morgan. A group of us were walking up Columbia NW at 2am around Gelmarc towers and saw two guys who had just been held at gunpoint and had their phones and wallets stolen. We were standing there helping them call their banks and the same car pulled over AGAIN, and held up our group. (more…)
Ed. Note: On May 14th an off leash attacked a beaver (that had to be euthanized) in Rock Creek Park, Park Police still looking for info.
