    Branded '72 was born from the legendary O'Brien's Pit Barbecue, a Metro DC area institution spanning four decades. While our mission is the same-to provide you with the best, authentic Texas barbecue-we also put an extra emphasis on our fresh homemade salads, sides, and desserts. We hope you enjoy the tradition we carry on as well as the new improvements we've made. So grab a cold beer, enjoy the music and dig into some true Southern 'cue!

  • ** 9 PM - 12 AM **

    Please join us for a night of great food and music in the friendly & warm environment that is The Potomac Grill!

    The essence of Potomac Grill started in the mind of two very different individuals, Luis Martinez & Scott Blaugrund. As both were foodies & restaurateurs, they were driven to search for a restaurant of their own. A place with great service, mouth-watering food and all the accolades that shape a fine eating establishment. Luis & Scott have been able to capitalize on each other's strengths to become a power-house restaurant in Rockville, Maryland. Potomac Grill is a place that offers excellent service including servers who know your name. Once you visit us, you end up bringing friends, family and clients again and again. The large portions, great prices and homemade chips make it an easy place to frequent.

    The Potomac Grill also has a sister company handling catering called La Prima Catering. From parties of 2 to 200, La Prima and The Potomac Grill can create the perfect menu for your special occasion (Liz has used them on many occasions and can vouch for the quality food and superb customer service).

  • Hershey's Restaurant
  • 17030 Oakmont Avenue, Gaithersburg, MD 20877 (MAP)

  • ** NEW VENUE **  

    Hershey’s Restaurant Offers a Tasty Glimpse of the County’s Past  : Tired of the same old chain restaurants?  Try Hershey’s Restaurant. It is a delightful time capsule of a family restaurant, circa 1952, located on Oakmont Avenue in Gaithersburg. Even the restaurant’s exterior surroundings – an isolated country lot set down next to the train tracks – seem to evoke the past. 

    Lisa Gorman is the owner and proprietor of Hershey’s. Lisa grew up in Bethesda. A former director of facilities for the Marriott Corporation, Lisa moved in the same circles as a number of county restauranteurs and was always interested in becoming one herself.  Since purchasing Hershey’s six years ago, Lisa has updated the décor, added a back deck, and put some of the regular specials on the menu. Speaking of the menu, on it you’ll find a range of foods, from ribs, fried chicken and New York strip, to the jumbo lump crab cake sandwich and Caesar salad.  Hershey’s has a number of regular patrons, most of who cheerfully vie to sit near the window and watch the trains pass. But it is eager for a new generation of families, searching for good food at a reasonable price in a comfortable atmosphere. 

    Here’s another reason to go. On weekends, when the weather is warm, there is a flea market from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the large parking lot behind the building. The flea market, the train, the old building, and the antique touches inside will take you back, if only for a moment.

    The building that houses Hershey’s served as the Washington Grove Post Office for 90 years. Before Hershey’s current iteration, it was known as “Grandma’s Fried Chicken”. The restaurant is still known for its fried chicken, but it would like to be known for its weekend brunch.
