A Mexican Mainstay in Bethesda — And More Closures in November | Eater DC

"After a 2-year run near the 9:30 Club, this LGBTQ+ bar will serve its last drink on Sunday, November 23. Known for its signature imported red cocktail shaker that inspired the name, it became popular for drag shows and events, offered a back patio for schmoozing, and even let guests order in food from next-door dive Whitlow’s. Owners Daniel Honeycutt and Justin Parker said they made the difficult decision to close and look forward to spending more time with their toddler. Bar veteran Keaton Fedak will take over the space, turning it into a new LGBTQ+ venture and, for now, plans to host private parties there through the winter." - Tierney Plumb
