The former home of Sehkraft Brewery will not be vacant for long, as The Board Room looks set to move in.
Sehkraft closed its doors at 925 N. Garfield Street in the Garfield Park apartment complex in January.
But in an email to residents on Sunday obtained by ARLnow, Garfield Park property manager Christin D’Amato said The Board Room will take over the first-floor retail space in Clarendon.
It currently has a location in Dupont Circle and, according to the email, shares some ownership with Carpool in Ballston, which is set to shutter next month after staying open for months on borrowed time.
The Board Room combines an extensive drinks menu with board games, available for rent for a flat fee of $2. The D.C. location does not have its own kitchen, but it encourages visitors to bring their own food if they wish.
The new location, The Board Room’s first in Virginia, also looks set to include a champagne lounge.
More from D’Amato’s email:
The Board Room D.C. location serves 21 draft lines and offers more than 50 different board games for customers to enjoy. Board Room VA will also feature a number of private party spaces and will offer a full menu and happy hour specials. Board Room VA will partner with a local brewer to keep the microbrewery operating and offer a number of in-house products. In addition, Ms. Peacock’s Champagne Lounge will offer a wide variety of champagnes and craft cocktails.
Representatives with The Board Room have thus far not responded to a request for comment.
