The Graham Prepares for the Launch of New Restaurant

The Graham Georgetown is in process of reimagining its lounge and dining room space to provide patrons a more modern atmosphere.

The Graham started renovations of the in-house restaurant A.G.B. Jan. 1. The Alex will replace A.G.B as a more intimate craft cocktail lounge that will include dining options.

The Alex name pays homage to Alexander Graham Bell, the famous Georgetown resident, scientist, innovator and inventor.

The actual square footage will remain the same but the layout, design and feel of the space will be completely made over in the renovation. Notable new features include a 20-foot brass pipe ceiling, multitiered seating and elegant fabric drapes that will create more intimate parlor areas for guests to enjoy. New tones like bronze and black accented with jewel colors such as emerald green will dominate the lounge area.

A new menu will offer breakfast, and small plates in the evening. The space will also be available to rent out for private events with customized options to match clients’ wishes.

The Alex, located at 1075 Thomas Jefferson St. NW, is expected to open early February.
