We need help in
#MtPleasant
. The
@7eleven
is a haven for crime and harassment in particular. The street is scary at night, & we presume vandalism and robbery is inevitable (again. and again.). Just now we had a very uncomfortable interaction with one of the usuals. Help.
@BigDenimEnergy
@7eleven
We’ve been dealing with ongoing criminal issues for a while. Eg Staff member mugged. Outdoor furnishings vandalized and stolen. Nightly defecation that we cleanup. We’re just asking for resources to make the street safer and better for all—not trying to fear monger.
@Kurtis91H
All due respect, there was that stabbing there 4 days ago, and we have to cleanup feces and urine in front of our restaurant almost daily from folks hanging out there (part of tonight’s event), and we’ve witnessed drug deals, so maybe our experience is a lil different.
After a whirlwind of police reporting, cleaning glass, boarding up, and hooking up substitute equipment, our
#Shaw
location will open regular hours today. Pricey new window replacement coming next week. Thanks for all the love.
FYI, we are going to keep our patron mask mandate in place until all of our staff is fully vaccinated (we’re close!). Thanks for understanding, and know that the phrase “please wear a mask unless actively eating or drinking” will be but a memory soon. 😷 ❤️
In happier news, we have a new dish on our menu in

and

! Check out our Glass Noodle Salad! Glass noodles with minced chicken and vegetables tossed in s spicy Thai citrus dressing. Gluten free and oh so yum!

@McSnacks940
@7eleven
We have. We’ve been communicating with & via business neighbors for months. The theme we’ve heard seems to be there’s a lack of resources, a revolving door court system, drug problems are hard to address, & solutions take time. We haven’t seen any real progress.
Thanks to all who drank frozé with us this weekend! As a result, we’re donating $860 to
@DCAbortionFund
! We remain committed to the cause of legal, accessible abortions, so this won’t be the last you hear from us!

Fifty percent of our frozé sales this weekend (Friday-Sunday) will go to the

We’re celebrating our amazing staff this weekend and are giddy to be able to do so. Kicking off the day with donuts and coffee (and bonuses in everyone’s paychecks).
We’re constantly assessing how to make our community safer. Among other things, this week we implemented staff temperature checks before work, plexiglass panels at our pickup stations, new wayfinding signage, & homemade (stylish, even?) face masks for staff.
Thank you

One of our owners’ (admittedly the drafter of this tweet) saw the entire cast of Schitt’s Creek (at

) in DC in 2019. It was... amazing and perfect and “simply the best”... if not a little stalker-y.
Followers: hypothetically if we did a rosé sales competition against

would y’all get our back and drink with us? Winner’s charity of choice gets a % of sales.
