Former Uniontown Bar & Grill to return as Cherry Hill Bar & Grill

A return to food, fun, and happy hour?
I don't know anyone who is not excited about this long overdue news! Nothing can set off the summer right than having our own neighborhood Cheers back! While we have all missed Uniontown and we here at ESLA wonder if anything can ever really feel the void of our first sit down restaurant in a really long time it sure will be nice to try! ESLA is wondering if it is too early to make a reservation for dinner now? Hmmm....

To get the latest on the status of 2200 Martin Luther King Jr, Ave SE (and see how soon until we can have cocktails and wings) go HERE to read the full article by Housing Complex's Aaron Wiener.

Excerpt:
Gebre, who says he was involved with the former Empty Pockets Cafe in Arlington and restaurants in Ethiopia, says he and Tripodo approached previous Uniontown owner Natasha Dasher about buying the restaurant or starting a partnership before her legal troubles began. After the restaurant shut down, they once again got involved. Tripodo, who owns nearby Union Liquors, is traveling in Africa and couldn't be reached for comment. 
Gebre hopes to turn the restaurant's upstairs into a music space. The application he and Tripodo filed to the Alcoholic Beverage Regulation Administration on Feb. 6 mentions "recorded music" with "live entertainment periodically."
