This hip and modern hotel is housed inside a historic church in Adams Morgan. It is the product of a community effort by local chefs, bartenders, artists and designers. 

Another amazing independent bookstore with used, new, and rare books. Lost City Books is a true neighborhood staple. 

Delicious modern Afghani food in a cozy interior. We highly recommend the mantoo shrimp dumplings, they are amazing. Don't forget to order a drink as each one is crafted with perfection. 

While it is a little bit farther than most places, Doubles is well worth the trip. This wonderful café serves delicious coffee and whips up some delicious breakfast sandwiches. It is also one of the best cafés to get some work done so take a seat and enjoy the day.
