Zorba's Cafe near the Dupont Circle, Thu, Oct 12, 2023, 5:30 PM

Join us at Zorba's Cafe near Dupont Circle for our weekly Thursday gathering! We'll be on the 2nd floor or, if the weather permits, you'll find us outside at a table on the street.

Attention group members! If you haven't attended our meetings before, don't worry about signing up in advance. Simply come by anytime between 5:30 PM and 8 PM. We usually have more attendees than RSVPs, so feel free to join us!

We're excited to return to our beloved old venue, Zorba's Cafe, where we've been meeting for years. Come upstairs to the 2nd floor to join the gathering.

Address: 1612 20th St NW, Washington, DC 20009

The cafe is conveniently located near the Dupont Circle Metro station. This is the same spot where we used to gather every Thursday evening prior to 2015.

We welcome everyone to attend, but kindly request that conversations are conducted exclusively in Russian. This is a great opportunity for us to practice the language together. Plus, there are happy hour prices available!

Timing: Usually someone arrives by 5:30 PM, but sometimes the organizers may be a little delayed until around 5:45 PM. If you're the first to arrive, please wait for us - we'll be there! People generally stay until at least 8 PM, so don't worry if you can't make it right at the beginning.

RSVP's: We encourage you to RSVP, but don't be discouraged if you see only a few people planning to attend. We typically have a lively and diverse group, with many newcomers. So if it's your first time, you won't be alone!

Additionally, when the weather is nice, we often gather outside. If you don't see anyone on the second floor, look for the group speaking Russian at the tables on the street.

And just to reiterate, we've had instances where only a handful of people RSVP, yet we've had a turnout of around 15. So don't worry about the numbers.
We can't wait to see you there!
