For those of us close to the Capitol Hill/Central District border, get ready to welcome a new bar to the neighborhood. Auto Battery, a sports bar/cafe opened up yesterday at 1009 East Union Street. It opened next door to Po Dog. Po Dog’s owner Laura Olson has an ownership stake in Auto Battery as well. Auto Battery features two shuffle board tables, ten flat screen monitors (one of which will be attached to a Wii), free wifi, beer, cocktails, po dogs and Macrina baked treats. Daily hours of operation will be 8 am to 2am.
