Source operates a black box space capable of reshaping and reimagining itself to fit the diverse productions it stages. In a plum northwest location, Source resides in a neighborhood just as versatile with prime dining along 14th Street and the vibrant U Street nightlife just blocks away. Washington Improv Theatre, Constellation Theatre Company and the Source Festival are resident companies.

Ted’s Bulletin
Known for their family friendly atmosphere and killer brunch, Ted’s Bulletin features well-made comfort food. With an interior similar to the lunch counter of an old-styled train station, Ted’s Bulletin presents itself as a vintage greasy spoon less the grease. Though country fried steak makes an appearance and tots are the standard side, Ted’s imbues diner fare with first-rate ingredients ensuring their menu is as quality as it is savory. The tricked-out pop tarts make a fantastic (and colorful) all-hours desert.

Compass Rose
Have hunger, will travel. Food is a great motivator to see the world and that’s just what Compass Rose owner Rose Previte did. Over four years, Rose and her husband tasted their way across 30 countries amassing one sizable recipe book, the best picks making up the menu of Compass Rose. Featuring international street food, the restaurant gives patrons the sensation of backpacking across Europe and Asia all from the comfort of a neighborhood tavern. The khachipori (cheese filled bread, organic egg, local butter) hailing from Georgia stands as a patron favorite.

Garden District
Formerly Standard, Garden District has served 14th Street with open-aired libations for over three years. A Bavarian-friendly draft menu and freshly made donuts make District the perfect spot for an after show drink and snack, and heat lamps make the experience enjoyable all year round. District keeps things simple and satisfying with picnic table seating, a staple BBQ menu and tall steins. No frills, lots of fun.
