The Pike Center restaurant was the all-you-can-eat chain’s last remaining location in Montgomery County after the Gaithersburg location closed a few years back. There are still nearby locations in Frederick and Hagerstown (Hagerstown is currently listed as temporarily closed).

Pike Center in Rockville has recently lost Pier 1 Imports and Bagel City.


La Casita, best known for their pupusas,  was featured on a recent episode of Bizarre Foods: Delicious Destinations on The Cooking Channel. The episode first aired earlier this month and features interviews with employees and customers inside La Casita’s original Silver Spring location.

La Casita has 2 other locations in MoCo: Gaithersburg and Germantown. Outside of MoCo, you can also find them inside Nationals Park and at their second DC location near Union Market.


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.
