Per a press release by Federal Realty, Bark Social, the first “dog bar” in the Mid-Atlantic region, is coming to Pike & Rose! According to the plans for Bark Social, there will be a professionally monitored off-leash dog park in addition to a space with a craft beer and coffee bar. Bark Social will be open year round, as the space will be indoor/outdoor.
Bark Social plans to open in September and will be located at 935 Prose Street, which is adjacent to Rose Park and next to Julii and Jinya.

It appears as though Bagel City in Rockville may have closed. As first reported by ABC7’s Kevin Lewis, the light up sign with the restaurant’s name has been taken down, there is a “For Lease” sign in the window, and the restaurant seems to have been emptied of all tables and equipment.
Bagel City, located in the Pike Center shopping center off of Rockville Pike, had been in operation in that location for almost 40 years.
PR at Partners hair salon announced that their Pike & Rose location is closing permanently. In an email that was sent out to their clients, they stated that they are closing due to the “health and financial crisis” that COVID-19 has created.

Jimmie Cone has announced that both locations are back open for business starting TODAY.
Per Jimmie Cone:
The Beach at Pike & Rose has a new addition– a sign stating that there are plans for it to be demolished. This may come as a surprise to many, but the intention was for The Beach to be temporary. It was constructed right before Summer of 2018 and was only supposed to last until Labor Day of that year. Due to popular demand, the beach was kept open much longer.
We are told that even though The Beach is disappearing, something equally fun and entertaining will replace it. We don’t have any official word on its replacement just yet.
