Essentials

Gold Coast Cafe has an decent selection of beer and some wine as well as any other convenience store essentials to stock your fridge. There is a small Deli that serves sandwiches etc; the food isn't fantastic, and we'd recommend sticking with the egg sandwiches, but it's adequate if you're hungry.

One of our favorite DC breweries, it's not far from our house although it is a bit off the beaten path amongst a bunch of old warehouses (so car or Uber is the best way to get there) but a great space, with some great beers.
