The Baked Bear will open a Maryland location next year, which will make Bethesda's Pike and Rose an even hotter local destination.
Bethesda’s Pike and Rose housing, office, retail, restaurant and entertainment development soon will house The Baked Bear ice cream sandwich shop’s first Maryland location. Most locals probably haven’t heard of the chain, and that's due to the fact that the company only has locations in the Midwest and on the West Coast. But come next year, it will be a local hotspot. The Pike and Rose location will open in the spring, just in time for summer at 929 Rose Avenue in Bethesda. [gallery columns="2" size="large" ids="5851,5846"]
