Such a cool spot with a speak-easy vibe. Allegory is hidden behind a nondescript door in the Eaton DC’s Progress Library. It is first come first serve. The concept combines the story of Alice in Wonderland with the experience of Ruby Bridges - the first Black child to desegregate the William Frantz Elementary School in 1960 in Louisiana. We love this spot and it's not well known.

This place has the most amazing ice cream we have ever had!!! It used to be a Greek restaurant that made their own ice cream, but the pandemic killed the restaurant and only the ice cream survived. Now they sell cones/scoops in a cart outside, or you can order pints for pick-up online. The pint flavors change daily, and you will not be disappointed. Some of the flavors sound odd, but we have tried nearly every one, and we always come back for more.

Walking and Transportation
We live in a very safe and walkable neighborhood in D.C. You will see people, young and old, walking all times of day, and it is also a very dog friendly area. That being said, we are in a big city, so it's always smart to lock your vehicle if you have a car.
The Metro bus and subway system is super easy and clean. We use it all the time. You can also find electric bikes and scooters, which are a fun way to navigate the city. The Metro bus has multiple routes that pick up on 9th and 11th street. The Green Line Subway is two blocks east and three blocks south (Mt. Vernon Square stop).
