According to the P & P website, the coffee bar has now closed. It will be reopening as Little Pearl at some point in the fall in the old Bayou Bakery spot at the Hill Center/Old Naval Hospital. There is a link at that page to follow them on Instagram. This is the Instagram page, which has not yet been updated.
On 11/29/2017 at 3:05 PM, Pat said:Little Pearl should be opening in mid-December in the old Bayou Bakery space at the Old Naval Hospital on Capitol Hill. Coffee by day and wine by night. Their website is up (more of a placeholder than anything at this stage): littlepearldc.com. The Instagram is littlepearldc as well, and the most recent post (from yesterday or so) indicates they are still hiring for a few positions. I must say I am looking forward to this. Even though I had my complaints about some things at BB, I had gotten used to it being there and it left a hole when it closed.
The coffee portion of Little Pearl is opening today, Dec. 16 (via Washington Post) and the wine bar portion is opening on Dec. 30 according to their website.

Frozen Tropics reported that the H St location is closing on Dec. 23, and a location at 818 18th St will open in the spring.

According to the website, the next openings are Kapnos Marketa on 12/15/17 and Octagon Bar on 12/19/17.

Expanding to Dupont. In the corner restaurant space at 1250 Connecticut and 18th and N (for years was California Pizza Kitchen and then a bunch of failed restaurants, most recently STK).
On 8/21/2017 at 1:29 PM, Kev29 said:Interesting choice of location. Though, somewhat surprisingly, the Dupont area is relatively lacking in nice bars to get a good beer (yes Paradiso is wonderful but super cramped)
On 8/21/2017 at 1:37 PM, Tweaked said:Having never been to a City Tap House, it sort of strikes me as being similar to the Daily Grill, which has been at the corner of 18th and M for years.
