"Clarendon’s patriotic-themed watering hole the Spirits of ’76 will close after four years of business on Sunday, November 1, at 3211 Washington Boulevard. The American comfort foods spot that was known for a vast whiskey list debuted right before the 2016 election and will bow out just before the 2020 election, notes ArlNow. 'Our lease is up at the end of November and it has become unsustainable to continue during these times,' notes a social media post." - Tierney Plumb
