It was expected that Top Golf would be ready by fall of this year, but anyone who has driven by the Century Blvd./ I-270 location has probably seen that it’s still just a big field.

A couple months back, I spoke with a Top Golf representative who told me that “it has been pushed back at this time” in response to me asking if the plans have changed. Without giving me any further details it looks like 2019 will be the year Top Golf comes to MoCo (I was assured they’re still coming).


According to the sign below, a development application has been filed by Mission BBQ. It would include the addition of outdoor seating.

Glen Bernie-based Mission BBQ currently has one other MoCo location, in Rockville. The first restaurant opened on September 11th, 2011 and they’re currently up to nearly 50 restaurants in over 10 states.


“As the story goes, during the Civil War a soldier was decapitated by a saber in a skirmish around what is now Game Preserve Road in Gaithersburg. After the fight, his fellow soldiers hastily buried him in an unmarked grave, even though they couldn’t find his head to bury with his body.”

The story has been passed down for many generations and many have told tales about the supposed unmarked grave of the headless man. Some have recalled strange noises and apparitions with glowing eyes. Others have seen the figure of a headless soldier (sometimes on a horse and sometimes without it).


Honey Pig recently opened a new Rockville location (12015-G Rockville Pike at Montrose Crossing), but that location will not be changing.

The switch to Honey One will offer Up-County residents an all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ option much closer than Rockville.
