Join us at Zorba's Cafe near Dupont Circle every Thursday! We will be gathering on the 2nd floor or, weather permitting, at a cozy table outside on the street. If you don't see us upstairs, head outside and look for the group speaking Russian.

Добро пожаловать в наше старое место встреч! Мы долгое время собирались в Zorba's Cafe. Присоединяйтесь к нам на втором этаже.

1612 20th St NW, Washington, DC 20009

This location is conveniently close to the Dupont Circle Metro station. It's the same spot where we used to gather every Thursday evening before 2015.

All Russian language enthusiasts are welcome! This is a fantastic opportunity to practice speaking Russian. Plus, we have special happy hour prices for attendees.

Timing: We usually have someone there by 5:30, but sometimes the organizers arrive a little later around 5:45. If you arrive early, please wait for us - we will be there! The gathering usually lasts until at least 8, so feel free to join us even if you can't make it right at the start.

RSVP's: We encourage you to RSVP, but don't worry if you see only a few people confirmed. Many attendees don't RSVP, and we often have a vibrant and diverse group. Newcomers are always welcome, so you won't be the only one if it's your first time.

When the weather is pleasant, we often enjoy our conversations outdoors. If you don't find us on the second floor, simply look for the Russian-speaking group at the tables outside.

Lastly, let me emphasize that we've had instances where only a handful of people RSVP'd, but we ended up with a lively gathering of around 15. So don't let the numbers discourage you!
