Taylor Gourmet and Sweetgreen On Track for Winter Openings in Crystal City

New Taylor Gourmet and Sweetgreen locations in Crystal City

Two new outposts of trendy local chain restaurants — Sweetgreen and Taylor Gourmet — are under construction in Crystal City.

Located in the former Corner Bakery space on the 2100 block of Crystal Drive, the restaurants are both expected this winter.

“The Crystal City location should be opening by the end of the year, though we don’t have a firm date to share just yet,” said a PR rep for Sweetgreen.

“We are thinking early 2016 right now,” Hilary Chattler of Taylor Gourmet told ARLnow.com last week.

This will be the second Arlington location for the two eateries; both have existing locations in Ballston. Corner Bakery closed in June.
