It’s Closing Time for Millie & Al’s

Iconic dive Millie’s & Al’s is officially closing the doors tonight.

Beloved for cheap bar and $1 Jell-o shots, the bar operated in Adams Morgan for 53 years. Rumors have been swirling since January about the closure, but the owners refuted it via Twitter. Last month, though, Washington Business Journal revealed the building had been sold.

Today Millie & Al's will open early at 4 p.m. for the last night night of service. The bar began auctioning off memorabilia like the Enterprise, skeleton, and Santas on April 3.
