Last chance: Help name new cafe in Folger Library

WASHINGTON (DC News Now) — 1,750 ideas were submitted for the name of the new cafe at the Folger Shakespeare Library and, though names like “Taming of the Brew” and “Mugbeth” didn’t make the cut, there’s still time to vote between the final five.

You can vote for your favorite name here until 11:59 p.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 20.

“Which name should we choose? We settled on a memorable character from a beloved play, a food popular in Shakespeare’s time that he was known to favor, a key historic figure, a reference to literature and plays, and a name we thought was just on point,” the library said on its website.

The cafe will open in the Great Hall when the Folger reopens on June 21. The library said that it will be a space that offers grab-and-go breakfast options, coffee, tea, soups and sandwiches, snacks to eat in the garden and drinks and light dinner fare in the evenings.
