In: Milo & Mav, Coffee Bar, Dog Boutique
Milo & Mav opened at 3206 N St NW Suite C-600A, in the center of Georgetown Court — next to Sid Mashburn, up the steps from the Georgetown Veterinary Hospital.
The business tells us: “We’re Milo & Mav — a coffee shop and dog boutique … in the heart of Georgetown! We’re here to bring you great coffee and all the goodies your dog loves! But more than that, we’re building a community — one that celebrates inclusion, creativity, and the joy of life with dogs. …”
In: Current Boutique
Current Boutique opened at 1068 31st St. NW, which was for years the site of Ristorante Piccolo that shut down in June 2023 due to a fire.
Founded in 2007 by Carmen Lopez, the consignment store has three other locations on 14th Street, Wilson Boulevard and King Street.
“Our goal is to provide a fun, inviting environment that allows our customers and consignors to enjoy their experience and feel comfortable about the consignment process,” writes Lopez.
In: Lil Sweet Treat on M
Lil Sweet Treat, founded by Elly Ross in New York, is set to open at 3285 M St. NW in time for Halloween. Expect high-end gummies from Sweden, Belgium, Spain, Germany and elsewhere that you choose and shovel in a bag to be weighed.
Coming: The Salty on M
The Salty — setting up at the former Peet’s Coffee shop at 33rd and M — is a donut shop from Miami with intense flavors. The shop says: “Our story begins in 2014, when Amanda Pizarro and (then boyfriend, now husband) Andy Rodriguez spent all their time (outside of attending school) dreaming about creating a community gathering place centered around donuts, coffee, and good vibes. A place you could have a first date, celebrate a birthday, or cheer you up after a long day.”
Coming: Yellow Sun Coffee
Not to be confused with the nearby Yellow cafe, Yellow Sun is taking over the former Home Court sneakers shop at 1363 Wisconsin Ave. NW.
The company tells us: “Yellow Sun Coffee Roasters was born from a simple idea: coffee should connect people. We work directly with farmers and with trusted import partners who share our values. Every bean is chosen with care, roasted with intention, and shared with honesty. Our first café is now open in Bushwick, Brooklyn, and it’s only the beginning.”
Happy 30th, Levain Bakery!
In celebration of Levain Bakery’s 30th anniversary, the iconic New York bakery is adding a long-awaited flavor to its lineup — White Chocolate Macadamia — launching Oct. 14.
The bakery tells us: “It’s the most requested cookie from fans over the years, and now it’s finally here. The new cookie combines the rich, buttery sweetness of white chocolate with the distinctive, creamy nuttiness of macadamias, creating a perfectly indulgent balance. The new flavor honors Levain’s 30-year history and the loyal fans who helped shape it.
“For those who can’t make it into a Bakery, Levain is also releasing a Special Anniversary Ecomm Assortment featuring two White Chocolate Macadamia cookies and two Chocolate Chip Walnut cookies — a ‘something old, something new’ tribute to the bakery’s heritage. Adding to the celebration, co-founders Pam Weekes and Connie McDonald will release their book, ‘Levain Bakery: A Story of Friendship, Community, and Cookies,’ on Oct. 14.”
