AGAIN, mea culpa for my earlier morning mistake about how many Jersey Mike’s locations there are in DC so I am seeking REDEMPTION with this post.
The good people from Jersey Mike’s tell me that their 5th DC location coming across the street from the zoo (3000 Connecticut Ave, NW) will be opening “early October” and there is already a 6th location in the works for Capitol Hill coming to 209 Pennsylvania Avenue, SE and will open in “early 2026.”
Stay tuned for exact opening dates.

Thanks to Peter, one of the originals that opened it in 1989, for sharing this great bit of history about the Hoagi House:

She took on multiple jobs, buying a small convenience store and finally working her way up to becoming the owner of Benning liquor, out on Benning Road past the stadium. She supported her four kids and put them all through college… She was an amazing woman! (more…)
