Common Ground Introduces The Stand in Crystal City

Social eatery is a creative new showcase for rotating pop-up food innovators

Common Ground Food Hall is delighted to announce the debut of its newest concept: The Stand in Crystal City, located at 1601 Crystal Drive, across from Metro.

More than a food incubator, The Stand is a “Social Eatery,” featuring a rotating line up of the hottest food concepts, in a vibrant al fresco setting—designed to be a gathering spot for foodies around the region.

Curated to appeal to all kinds of palettes at all times of day, The Stand’s November line-up features coffee from La Colombe, desserts from Cookie Dough & Co, comfort food from Capital Chicken & Waffle, acclaimed Pinch dumplings, and local favorite, Timber Pizza.

B Doughnut will provide free donuts to the first 100 customers starting at 8 AM during the first week.

The November line-up includes:

• Breakfast every day with B Doughnut and Colombe Coffee all day
• November 1-3: Cookie Dough & Co.
• November 6-10: Capital Chicken & Waffle
• November 13-17: Donburi
• November 20-22: Pinch Dumplings
• November 27- December 1: Timber Pizza

“We are so excited to introduce The Stand in Crystal City,” said Zi-Heng Zhu, co-founder of Common Ground Food Hall. “Crystal City is full of creative people with an appetite for discoverable new kinds of food. It’s the perfect canvas for our chefs to share and test ideas in a fresh outdoor setting.”

Common Ground was created as a partnership between Social Restaurant Group (SRG) and Catalyst Venture Group (CVG).

The Stand is located in the heart of Crystal City; where over 50,000 people live, work, and visit each day. The Stand will be the centerpiece of Crystal City’s “Water Park”—an iconic urban plaza surrounded by hammocks, games, seating and a major water feature. The Stand will also be in the center of Crystal City’s social hub, Friday at Fountain produced by the Crystal City Business Improvement District—with live music, wine and beer, each week from April-October.
