The self-pour taps will reopen as Nomadic Wine Dispensary begins new journey on North Broadway

Nomadic Wine Dispensary is set to open its doors soon at 700 Broadway E, revitalizing the former site of the self-pour wine bar Rapport, which closed earlier this year. First-time hospitality entrepreneurs Bonnie Donovan and Tim Sale are committed to preserving the local community spirit by transforming the space into a cozy lounge with an educational self-pour wine experience. They plan to enhance the ambiance with soft couches, lower tables, and a refined menu, while maintaining Rapport’s 80 self-pour tap system. Although the closure of Rapport left a void in Capitol Hill, Donovan and Sale have garnered excitement from neighbors eager to see the venue come back to life. The new owners aim to navigate the challenges of rising costs in the food and hospitality industry by focusing on evening hours and avoiding morning coffee services at first.

By adapting to the evolving needs of the community, Nomadic will contribute to the ongoing transformation of Capitol Hill's food scene. The anticipated opening is set for late April, where patrons can look forward to a variety of wines, beers, cocktails, and tapas. Follow @nomadic_wines for updates on their launch.
