17th and K Street, NW

So where are the best/most reliable/well priced dry cleaners in town these days?
“Dear PoPville,
I was walking through the neighborhood this morning, and I noticed that Petworth Cleaners closed! If you Google “Petworth Cleaners,” the search result on the right side of the page says, “Permanently Closed.” (more…)

Happy Anniversary!! So – How good are these Hot Italian sandwiches? (more…)
*According to Dan Silverman, 29 year continuous citizen of the District of Columbia based on a VARIETY of reasons to include but not limited to hundreds of beers quaffed over the years, my whims and addled memories. But TRUST.
21. Chevy Chase Lounge (at the Parthenon 5512 Connecticut Ave, NW) – Have you been here? A dive bar in the most sterile way…
20. The Blaguard (2003 18th Street, NW) – I’ll always think of Common Share but the Blaguard is a very worthy successor.
19. Wonderland (1101 Kenyon Street, NW) and cousin 18. Dew Drop Inn (2801 8th Street, NE) – Didn’t want to forget them so typed them as soon as I could. They really need their own categories but they’d top my lists however you define them.
17. Snappy’s (3917 Georgia Ave, NW) Very good but too new for a super high ranking. Much potential for a higher ranking in future years.
16. Lyman’s (3720 14th Street, NW) – Pinball, the food, the people – nearly perfect. So why put them at 16th? Well, “The number 16 symbolizes a powerful combination of transformation, independence, and the attainment of higher knowledge, often signaling a need for personal willpower and the dismantling of old structures to move forward”, naturally.
15. Jimmy Valentine’s (1103 Bladensburg Road, NE) – Very fuzzy memories. My youth!
14. Stan’s (1029 Vermont Ave, NW) – That downstairs walk, oh my…
13. Looking Glass Lounge (3634 Georgia Ave, NW) – My people!
12. Tune Inn (331 Pennsylvania Ave, SE) – Legends. What more can you say?
11. Jackie Lee’s (116 Kennedy Street, NW) – FAR but so fun. (more…)
“Dear PoPville,
I recently adopted two 6-month-old kittens from the Humane Rescue Alliance and need to take them to the vet.
In the past I’d gone to District Vet in Brookland — I liked the convenient (for me) location and the relative ease of parking. (more…)
Ed. Note: Where is your current favorite spot for a solid Bacon Egg and Cheese?
Andy’s Pizza just killing us… until they expand bagel options at their DC locations :)
On Thursday we broke the news that Andy’s (Pizza) was getting in on the bagel game. Now Andy’s Pizza is getting in on the BEC game (see above.):
“She is beauty, she is grace, she is our new BEC.” (more…)
Alright, alright, it’s not 1995, I get it. Now you can go get it too: (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
One of my friends is going to be on Jeopardy tomorrow and we wanted to have a watch party in DC at a bar! Do you know if there are any bars that show jeopardy? It feels very DC to already exist hahaha. I think apparently Midlands said they would host! Apparently they’ve hosted quite a few over the years.”
Which other bars regularly show Jeopardy? Which ones would be most fun to watch your friend, hopefully, crush it?!?

“Dear PoPville,
Hoping the PoPulace can help. I have been with Sandy Spring bank for decades but I’m looking for an alternative since the merger with Atlantic Union. Looking fora high yield savings plus checking option. Anyone happy with their small DC bank? Not looking to put my money with Chase, Citi, etc.”
