Ethiopian Coffee Shop on the 400 Block of H?
From the comments (this is the first I've heard of anything like this):
Apparently an Ethiopian coffee shop/bakery type joint is going to go in on the 400 block as well

What's the difference between an Ethiopian coffee shop and a typical coffee shop? Does the person who posted the comment mean it will be owned by Ethiopians or that it will serve Ethiopian pastry and coffee?
I love Ethiopian food and eat in Little Ethiopia all the time, so the idea of an Ethiopian coffee shop sounds terrific.
I'm the one who posted teh comment first time around. I can only say that I heard this from the building's owner. I can't remember if he said it was a done deal or still in negotiations. It will serve Ethiopian coffee and pastries according to my source. I asked if it will morph into a full Ethiopian restaurant (thus saving me the trip up to Little Ethiopia but he said no, the space is too small for full food service.

I was assuming Ethiopian coffee. I would be thrilled by this. I still think the best coffee in town is served by Harambe (Eritrean in Adams Morgan).
Where is Little Ethiopia?
9th Street NW between U & T. I stand by Harambe for value & aesthetics.
inked, Thanks for the info. Do you know when the coffee shop will be open?
I love Ethiopian food and eat at Dukem all the time. I was recently in Addis Ababa and I was addicted to their coffee.
Sorry, I don't have any other info on this one. The comment was the first I'd heard of the coffee shop.
The R&B Coffee House seems to be doing well. Another coffee house on the other end of H Street might also be successful.
