WASHINGTON, DC — A new marketplace will be opening on Pennsylvania Avenue in the Foggy Bottom area later this summer. The marketplace, Western Market, will include several restaurants offering cuisines from around the world.

Among its many restaurants and shops, Western Market, at 2000 Pennsylvania Ave. NW, will include Bandoola Bowl, a Southeast Asian salad shop; Arepa Zone, which serves Venezuelan food; Nim Ali, which serves Guatemalan Food; and Alitiko, a Greek and Mediterranean restaurant.

“Western Market will bring diverse cultures and cuisines to the heart of Foggy Bottom, just steps from Georgetown and the West End, easily accessible from George Washington University, the GWU Hospital and medical campus, the World Bank and IMF, the State Department, and other nearby businesses and agencies,” said the market’s developers, Westbrook Partners, MRP Realty and CANA Development.
