A sports bar and a Korean barbecue restaurant are coming to College Park this year.
Greene Turtle, a Maryland sports bar chain, and Honey Pig, a Virginia Korean restaurant chain, will open in the College Park Shopping Center at 7370 Baltimore Ave., just south of Knox Road.
Both chains have been expanding in the D.C. area and College Park is a natural location, given its large population of college students, including a sizable number of students from Asia.
The shopping center already has several other chain restaurants: &Pizza, Cold Stone Creamery ice cream shop, Noodles & Co., Chipotle Mexican restaurant, Cava Mediterranean fast-casual restaurant, Five Guys burgers and a Starbucks.
It’s also home to a 24-hour CVS drugstore.
Honey Pig, which got its start in Annandale, Va., has become a popular spot for Korean hotpot dining, making the Washingtonian‘s list of Cheap Eats in 2016 and 2018. It joins SeoulSpice fast casual Korean restaurant and MeatUp Korean barbecue in College Park and Iron Pig Korean barbecue in Berwyn Heights.
