No Goodbyes

"You probably haven’t had a date in a church before, but there’s a first time for everything. The restaurant and bar of the Line Hotel was a church before it became the hip “it” spot in Adams Morgan. The people watching is great here—not one baggy suit in sight—and the large original church windows offer stunning views of the neighborhood. Grab a seat beneath the soaring vaulted arches of the building and munch on small plates like raw local oysters, shoestring fries, and a pickled vegetable platter. Even if the date isn’t great, your cocktail and bar snacks will be." - Madeline Weinfield

"The Line DC culinary team is selling bourbon caramel pecan pies with a brown sugar crust and candied pecans and a traditional pumpkin pie made with Earth N Eats pumpkins and cinnamon for Thanksgiving. Both are priced at $40 and all orders need to be placed seven days prior to be eligible for pickup on November 27-28." - Vinciane Ngomsi, Tierney Plumb

"A good place to transition from the workday to happy hour, the “Black Walnut Old Fashioned” at No Goodbyes is an autumnal take on a beloved classic. You’ll taste notes of Wild Turkey 101 bourbon, brown sugar gomme, and homemade black walnut aromatic bitters." - Vinciane Ngomsi

"This locavore-driven, lobby-level hotel restaurant in the lobby of an Adams Morgan church-turned-Line hotel is outfitted with large communal tables, brass accents, and stylish mohair couches. An original pipe organ-turned-dramatic chandelier hangs from its vaulted ceilings, making for a picturesque wedding for 450 across the 5,000-square-foot space. Extra points for its beverage director Lukas Smith being a cocktail wizard." - Vinciane Ngomsi, Tim Ebner, Eater Staff

"At Adams Morgan’s No Goodbyes, the cleverly named Skyewalker cocktail leans on the tried-and-true Penicillin foundation of blended Scotch, ginger, and lemon juice. But it’s a fourth key ingredient — a float of peated fernet — that boosts the drink from an elementary whiskey sour to one of the most artful sips in D.C. The homemade liqueur is one of many examples of the craftsmanship and inventive mind of the Line DC’s bar manager Lukas B. Smith, who’s revitalizing the 6-year-old hotel’s handsome lobby bar with an influx of original liqueurs and spirits not found anywhere else." - Travis Mitchell
