Chef and restaurateur Nicholas Stefanelli will open a third outpost of his Italian cafe Officina on Monday, August 30, this time in downtown Washington. The original, three-level restaurant, amari bar and market opened in 2018 at the Wharf, and since then has expanded to Georgetown.

This new downtown Officina Cafe is located on first floor of The Hub (1615 L Street NW), and will cater to returning office workers with take-away coffee and pastries, to-go salads and Roman-style pizza for lunch, and after-work wine and Italian cocktails (catering services will be available too).
