Peregrine

When Murky closed their Capitol Hill location had their DC location seized by tax authorities, it was a sad day for DC, losing a great coffee shop. However, from the ashes of Murky rises Peregrine Espresso in their old location. With new fixtures and equipment, some beautiful ceramic-ware, and some of the same faces you might have recognized from the old Murky are running the show here at Peregrine.
The coffee is delicious this morning, and they offer more than just mere coffee: a selection of tasty sodas and pastries (including baguette and jam, which sounds like a great breakfast), as well as granola with yogurt. Coffee comes in One Size, and while one size may not fit all, I don’t see this as generating another controversy like the Coffee Kerfuffle this summer.
Come on down, it’s good stuff.

I live and work in the District of Columbia. I write at We Love DC, a blog I helped start, I work at Technolutionary, a company I helped start, and I’m happy doing both. I enjoy watching baseball, cooking, and gardening. I grow a mean pepper, keep a clean scorebook, and wash the dishes when I’m done. Read Why I Love DC.
Thanks, Tom. I will definitely check it out and will keep my eyes open for controversy among the grinds.
They have this really cool way of individually brewing a cup of coffee. Plus they rotate what kind of coffees they bring in.
