Fast-growing D.C. deli and bagel shop has opened its ninth D.C. area location, this time in McLean, Virginia. It’s in the form of a mobile house, and there may be more popping up in Northern Virginia in the future.
Call Your Mother 鈥淟il Deli鈥� is parked at the recently renovated Chesterbrook Shopping Center at 6216 Old Dominion Drive, and includes the shop鈥檚 full menu and patio seating.
鈥淲e are stoked to bring good carbs and good vibes to the people of Northern Virginia who have been asking us to expand into their neighborhood for a while,鈥� said Andrew Dana, co-owner and founder. 鈥淲e built this 鈥楲il Deli鈥� to be able to take the CYM experience to more places and are excited that McLean will be its first home.鈥�
The McLean location comes three months after Call Your Mother opened its eighth location, which is in D.C.鈥檚 Chevy Chase neighborhood and聽replaced the Little Red Fox bakery that closed earlier this year.
Dana and wife Daniela Moreira opened the first Call Your Mother in D.C.鈥檚 Park View neighborhood in 2018.
Call Your Mother has one other unconventional location in Bethesda, in a brightly-painted pink trolley. Its other, traditional brick-and-mortar locations are at Pike & Rose in North Bethesda, Capitol Hill, Georgetown, Logan Circle and D.C.鈥檚 West End.
It is also a regular at the Dupont farmer鈥檚 market and the Silver Spring farmer鈥檚 market.
The new McLean location is open seven days a week from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The owners, along with Andrew鈥檚 sister-in-law Lucy Dana, also now produce and sell their own line of peanut butter , with peanuts sourced from South America. The peanut butter is on its menus and sold in jars at several markets in D.C. and online.
Call Your Mother is expanding outside the D.C. area as well, with new locations opening soon in Denver.
