Cafes, restaurants and bars

My favorite spots in the neighborhood!
Don't leave without visiting the Bear, one of DCs best loved cafe-bars. Sit on the terrace, sipping a coffee or rosé. The food is pretty good too (new american cuisine). Can get crowded at weekends.

Lovely and delicious Italian pasta restaurant, featured in the Michelin guide. Gets booked up often but they keep several tables for walk-ins.

Groceries

The only bad thing about Bloomingdale - its a grocery desert! These are the closest options for supermarkets (all around a 15 minute walk).
