It happened, you guys. The Metro finally reached the point of no return. Should we have expected this at some point or another? Probably. Regardless, DC restaurants seem to be the only thing we can count on these days. Here’s a list of today’s specials that we’ll be updating throughout the shut down.
There’s an all-day happy hour $5 drinks at Penn Commons.
All-day happy hour at Del Campo.
