A local happy hour hot spot, Gordon Biersch in Rockville is part of a national chain that opened in 1988. The restuarant is as famous for its garlic fries as it is for its on-site brewery. In addition to the daily menu of American food with an international flair, Gordon Biersch offers brunch and hosts several special tapping parties and brewer's dinners throughout the year. The restuarant also offers discounts and perks through its Passport Rewards Program and the Stein Club.
