What happened after Food Paradise?

The episode highlighted ChurchKey's craft beer program and bar-food menu, built around the wide tap and bottle list the venue is known for. ChurchKey is a craft beer bar that, according to its own website, was built in 2009 on 14th Street NW in Washington, DC, and has grown into an East Coast destination for craft beer enthusiasts. According to ChurchKey's website (churchkeydc.com), checked on 2026-09-09, the site lists current beer offerings, a beer academy, gift certificates, and private-event bookings, and it operates a live online ordering feature. Google Places lists the business as operational at 1337 14th St NW. The site's current-year content and working ordering tools indicate an actively maintained web presence rather than a stale, abandoned page.
