Prior to June, the restaurant and brewery offered only curbside pickup due to the COVID-19 pandemic. But now that the curve has been flattened, customers are now allowed to dine in person.

Bagel City, located in the Pike Center shopping center off of Rockville Pike, had been in operation in that location for almost 40 years.
