Hello Betty Restaurant Coming to Pike & Rose
Hello Betty announced today via Instagram that they are planning to open in April. The seafood-focused restaurant aims to bring California beach, surf, and skate ambiance to their establishment.
Pike & Rose
It has been just under a year since Bark Social opened its gates in Pike & Rose, adjacent to Rose Park and next to Julii and Jinya. BizJournals reports that the “social club for dogs and their owners has raised another $2 million to fuel its growth in Greater Washington and other metro areas along the East Coast.” Per the report, it’s the latest of three funding rounds for the company, for a total of around $5.3 million. Bark Social will start with a new location in Baltimore (Canton) and plan on at least two more locations in D.C. and Philadelphia to be announced soon.
The existing venue consists of a 25,000 square foot dog park plus a 2,500 square foot climate controlled clubhouse as well as a bar/cafe and gift shop. The dog park is off-leash and monitored by trained professionals at all times and there is a separate area for small dogs as well.
915 Meeting Street will be a 16-story, state-of-the-art, LEED Gold-targeted building featuring 9,600 square feet of ground floor retail, approximately 25,000-square-foot flexible floor plates and 700 dedicated parking spaces. The building, designed by Gensler, will incorporate a vibrant architectural design that includes numerous amenities, such as a rooftop conference center with collaborative common areas, WiredScore-targeted connectivity, a fitness center, and resource-efficient sustainable and wellness features.
Located in the Pike & Rose neighborhood of North Bethesda, 915 Meeting Street will sit within the transit-oriented, LEED Gold-certified neighborhood of Pike & Rose and its more than 400,000 square feet of retail, services, dining, and entertainment offerings. The new construction comes following the success of Pike & Rose’s 300,000 square feet of existing office product, which includes tenants such as Bank of America, JLL, Industrious, OneDigital and Federal Realty’s corporate headquarters.

Over the summer, Federal Realty announced that the popular Roaming Rooster will open in Fall 2021 at North Bethesda’s Pike & Rose.
We spoke with representatives from the restaurant over the weekend who informed us that the new location will now likely be opening in late April/early May. They cited permits taking much longer than anticipated as being the reason for the delay.

Eyewear brand Warby Parker, which does most of its business online, will be opening its third brick and mortar location in MoCo this summer. It will be located on Grand Park Avenue, taking over two different locations that will be moving- Olive & Loom and a neighboring storefront. Last month Olive & Loom announced a move to Kensington.
Warby Parker opened its first MoCo location at Bethesda Row in 2017, and its second this past November in Downtown Crown (Gaithersburg). The stores carry the brand’s full optical and sun eyewear offerings including its first brand of daily contact lenses. The store will offer eye exams and children’s glasses that are only available in store.
Olive & Loom, a Mediterranean-inspired lifestyle and apothecary boutique that opened in Pike & Rose in March 2019, announced via Instagram that it will be moving in with its sister business Kin & Care. Kin & Care is a hand -poured, small batch, scented candle company located in Kensington.
Owner Ferzan Jaeger, a Turkish-born mother of two who started her business inspired by the Turkish Baths/Hamam rooted in the rich history of the Ottoman Empire, announced on Instagram that the lease is up at the end of January. In Kensington, she says, they’ll be able to put both businesses under one roof and hope to continue the retail side of Olive & Loom, while offering candle pouring classes in the studio.
The lights are off, doors are locked, and phones are ringing unanswered at Taylor Gourmet in Pike & Rose. Google lists the restaurant as “permanently closed” and employees at two DC locations confirmed the closing.
Taylor Gourmet returned to Pike & Rose in October of 2019, a little over a year after the brand announced it would be closing all 17 of its stores in the DC area.
Federal Realty announced today that three new tenants, Carl M. Freeman Companies (CMFC), Prudential Financial, Inc. (NYSE: PRU) and ACA Group, have committed to 909 Rose, located in the award-winning, transit-oriented Pike & Rose neighborhood in North Bethesda.
These new tenants will join ESAB, Emagine IT, OneDigital, United Solutions, Industrious and Federal Realty. With the addition of these three tenants, the building is now 89 percent leased.
