Breakfast Time at Woodmont Deli

Locals love this small but friendly deli for their warm cranberry muffins, bagels, pancakes, and breakfast plates. It’s the perfect place to pop in for a cup of coffee and something to eat in the morning.

Get Stylish at The Shop Salon

The Shop Salon is not only filled with fantastic hairdressers that will work wonders with your hair, but it will also leave you feeling relaxed and refreshed. They cater equally well to both men and women, so everyone can enjoy this stylish local salon.

Get in Touch with Your Geeky Side at Big Planet Comics

Just keep going south down Woodmont Street and turn right onto Cordell Ave. to reach the Bethesda location of this local comic book chain. The selection of comics and graphic novels here is huge, so no matter what you’re into, the helpful staff will be able to find you the right comic or graphic novel.

Enjoy the Abundance of Lunch Options

After you’ve emerged from Big Planet Comics, you’re surrounded by great lunch options. Smoke BBQ, South Street Steaks, and Brickside Food & Drink are all great restaurants right on Cordell Ave. You can’t go wrong at Bacchus of Lebanon or Smashburger right around the corner on Norfolk Ave. either.
