The rumor is true!
Not sure which building is 247 Florida Avenue NW? It's just the corner building at 3rd and Florida Avenue NW. I took a pic of the front door - with the liquor license placard already posted.
Coming soon: Family-friendly Brookland’s Finest; 13th Street Meats in Bloomingdale
[I have not included the section on Brookland's Finest -- just the section on the sausage store coming to 247 Florida Avenue NW.]
Meats & Foods
The owners of 13th Street Meats have become well known for their frequent appearances selling sausages at farmers markets, at DC Brau‘s Saturday growler hours and manning the grill on the back patio at Dodge City. (You might also recognize co-owners Scott McIntosh and Chad “America” Allison from their gigs behind the bar at the Big Hunt and the Black Cat, respectively, though McIntosh left his bar to focus on the sausage biz.)
While their sausages show up on menus from Toki Underground to Breadsoda, it’s finally time for 13th Street Meats to have a storefront of its own. McIntosh recently signed a deal for a space at 247 Florida Ave. NW, right at the intersection with Rhode Island Avenue. It will primarily be a retail space, selling house-made half smokes, spicy Italian sausages, chorizo and lemon-basil chicken links, but McIntosh says there will also be a 12-seat counter where customers can settle in for a sausage sandwich, a bowl of chili and a beer.
Opening is a way off — McIntosh says he’s still waiting on construction permits — but this is one shop worth keeping an eye on.
It just keeps on coming to Bloomingdale!
