PROJECTED OPENING: Fall 2026 2911 District Avenue Suite #120, Fairfax, VA Makers Union will be opening its sixth location in Fairfax’s Mosaic District this Fall in the space formerly home to matchbox. The new Mosaic District location will be shaped by its neighborhood, offering the brand's full menu of classic dishes with a contemporary twist alongside its signature cocktail program, in a space featuring the brand's signature crushed velvet banquettes, a large bar and playful design touches throughout. For more information, visit their website here.

PROJECTED OPENING: October 2026 2436 18th Street NW Popal Group (Lapis, Lapop, Maison Bar à Vins) revives its dearly missed German beer hall, which closed in Georgetown back in 2022, with a new home in Adams Morgan inside the former Mellow Mushroom space next month. Expect the same hearty sausages, soft pretzels, and long rotating tap list that made the original a neighborhood fixture.
