Ben Boerum is the owner.  Suburban is the mindset of the opponents and 
those who use CT Ave as a commuter route.  If I said it, it was ironic.

This is awesome, been meaning to get over to Happy Go. I'm all in on the CT 
Ave bike lanes, obviously, but calling it "suburban" is a bit of a 
misnomer, it's entirely within DC city limits!

I was in DC the weekend after the Nat'l bike summit, which my wife 
attended, and we rode the Capital Crescent to Rock Creek with a dedicated 
stop at Happy Go. The owner (whose name I can't recall) was incredibly 
friendly and we chatted about infrastructure and how obnoxious it is that 
wealthy residents oppose traffic calming or more livable streets when it 
would interrupt their god-given right to park in front of Starbucks. Hoping 
the improvements move forward! Also what a great shop
