The popular Maryland restaurant chain Iron Rooster is opening in College Park.

Located inside the Hotel at the University of Maryland, the 6,000-square-foot restaurant will be the fifth for Iron Rooster, joining locations in Annapolis and Baltimore.

Iron Rooster serves family-style Southern cooking, featuring breakfast all day, with specialties such as house-made pop tarts, chicken and waffles and a crab hash. You can get also order lunch and dinner items like fried chicken, a BLT&E or a turkey wrap.

Whatever you order, there’s a decent chance it will come with bacon, which adorns everything from a Bloody Mary to the breakfast nachos. You can also get a mason jar of free bacon by showing your server proof that you followed the restaurant on social media.

The restaurant is aiming to open by the start of the fall semester and will have an outdoor patio.
