    could park there and walk to The Hotel. in theory.

        Recently "the hotel" stopped honoring parking fees, and they
        are steep, so the hotel is now off my list.

        I am a fan of Potomac Pizza also in "The Hotel".  They
        recently started offering non-dairy cheese, so I can have

        There is a (new?) place in College Park called Dog House
        Biergarten that I would like to try, but probably when the
        weather is cooler in the fall.

        The pavilion at Carderock can be reserved, it is a little
        spendy but a very nice space. Over on that side of town
        there is also Angler's Inn which was better than I expected
        it to be the last time I was there.

            of course a park is generally more quiet than a bar, but
            its also
            conceivably a lot more hot (except yesterday). We can
            also easily get
            rained out if there's a summer storm, so I'm more
            inclined for an indoor
            place.

            here's a few places , admitted local to UMD

            1) Behind the The Hotel there's a new place called the
            Hall, even has
            pickleball courts ooutside (no, i'm not a fan). Kinda
            weird you need to
            wear a band, like on cruises, in order to get alcohol.

            2)  Franklins or Bus Boys & Poets, both in hyattsville

            3)  that "new" beer place at Riverdale station, also has
            a new "2fifty
            BBQ", Tapas place on the other corner if you want food

                (they allow food to be taken in to the beer place)

            4) Le Fantome Food Hall, also new, in Riverdale . Has a
            few food places
            and a bar. I love their Poke Bowl.


            I think 3) is my favorite these days, but they're all good.


            Other places I don't know anything about, but just heard
            mention:

            - union market (off NY Av)

            - there's a Denizen's right by Fantome,in Riverdale. I
            was there
            recently, but had noisy live music.



            For those not having been around UMD for a few years,
            are in for the
            shock treatment.  They recently paved Rt.1 now that it's
            "finished" and
            ready for the purple line. Parking is, as ever, a pain.
