    I absolutely love this place! You can enjoy a delightful mix of three pretzels ~ salted, cinnamon…read moresugar, or everything bagel for $8. Even though it's a small operation, this pretzel shop truly brings joy to our community. They also offer delicious breakfast sandwiches, pretzel dogs, and various tea and coffee options. I was lucky to get all three of my pretzels from the oven. I especially like how the cinnamon sugar pretzel is topped with icing instead of dust--it's much easier to eat and still gives you that sweet, satisfying treat. The staff are quick and friendly. If they're baking a flavor, they'll let you know how long you'll need to wait for that fresh batch. There's plenty of seating, both inside and outside on picnic tables, making it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy.

Lots of patrons were picking up take-away and the in-person ordering line moved quickly. Definitely kid friendly with plenty in-door and out-door seating. We placed our order and waited to be called over the PA system. I'm not sure why they call you based on the items you ordered rather then the receipt number, but such is life. The breakfast pretzel was served room temperature, eggs were not to my liking, but good flavor from the bacon and cheese. The pretzel itself self was dry and kinda flavorless. The salted pretzel had a soft interior and crusty exterior with nice salt flakes but didn't live up to my expectations. The pub cheese was a welcome purchase to polish off the pretzel. The sweet pretzel was the best from our order. Pretzel was still dry but the cinnamon sweet topping made the top enjoyable.

    Big fan of Bronson's. Word of warning is that it can get super crowded but that just speaks to its…read morepopularity. The food is good. My most recent venture I had the wings. I did the house dry rub and old bay dry rub. The house dry rub, to be honest, was bland and flavorless. The old bay seasoning was very good. I wish the wings had come with more. For $15 you get 8 total wings. It didn't feel like great value. What is great value and tastes great are the Bavarian pretzels as well as the buffalo chicken dip. You truly can't go wrong with either one. They have a robust drink menu. They are lacking a cider on tap but it is what it is. While this might not be the most glowing review on its surface, Bronson's gets 5 stars for its atmosphere and ability to accommodate a wide range of food and drink desires. I watched two World Cup games here and it was a fun, electric atmosphere.

    If you're thinking of going to Bronson Bierhall, read this first…read more I got kicked out Friday night for absolutely no reason. I was in the patio with friends, in the corner, not bothering anyone -- not fighting, not yelling, not approaching strangers. Security walked up, said there was "a complaint," refused to say who it was from, refused to say what it was about, refused to let me talk to the manager, and refused to even let me back inside to grab my own card. My friends asked him to stop. He ignored them. This is the second time their security has unfairly targeted me. The first time I had just stepped outside to take a phone call. The same guard ran after me and started accusing me of stealing -- but couldn't say what was supposedly stolen or who had complained, because nobody actually had. I told him my laptop and jacket were inside at the bar and that all the bartenders know me. He eventually apologized once it became obvious he had nothing. Same guy, same pattern, different night. Also worth knowing: my friend and I had just ordered around $100 in food and drinks at the end. Nothing finished. No refund offered, no apology, no manager. If management thinks letting one guard humiliate paying customers in front of their friends is good for business, here's your feedback. Plenty of better pubs in Arlington that actually respect the people

    Sadie Ann's pretzels are a must try - a top 3 food stall within the Upper Marlboro Dutch Market!…read more They have an awesome selection of soft pretzels (with lots of flavor options), stuffed pretzels, pretzel dogs, and smoothies. I'm a classic salted pretzel kind of guy - they're huge, soft, always hot, and extremely tasty. Each regular pretzel runs about $2.50 and the logs and dogs start at around $4-$5. I've also had their pretzel dogs and steak n' cheese stuffed pretzel rolls - both are really really good. Honestly, you can't go wrong with anything you order here. They only accept cash so remember to take a few bucks with you on your trip to the Dutch Market; they're located near the exit so be sure to stop by on your way out.

    I'm going to lift the Lyd on Lydianne's right now…read more (It used to be called Lydianne's Pretzels, at least on Yelp, so that's why the jokes are all Lydianne jokes and not Sadie Anne jokes). These are perhaps the best pretzels you will ever eat. They are fresh, hot, gooey, and huge, and yes I'm talking about the pretzels. They also have perhaps the best Banana Milkshake I've ever had (and I've been told the rest of their shakes are equally stellar). They're dirt cheap and worth the drive to Maryland just for those two items alone. What to get: Hot Pretzel, Banana Shake What not to get: Hot Prilosec, Banal Sheikh Lydianne's is the highlight of the Amish Market in the MD countryside, about half an hour East of Washington, D.C. which is the capital city of some small country, I forget which one. The Amish know how to make this sort of food. In Philly, the culinary highlight of the whole region may be Miller's Twist... fresh lemonade, hot pretzels, and amazing shakes. In Ohio, the best shake and roast beef in the state is at Hartville Kitchen - an Amish paradise as Weird Al would say. But the pretzels and shakes at Lydianne's not only rival those, they may beat them. Certainly nothing in the DC area comes anywhere close, and even though they have limited hours (I think it's just Friday, Saturday, Sunday, mornings), you must make the journey out here, and once you're in the market, make a bee-line for Lydianne's, get a pretzel, get a shake, your life will be changed forever. Don't say I didn't warn you. This is coming from someone that never even liked pretzels before I met the Amish, and who loves shakes so much that I have probably tried 1,000 of them across America. Now if I just put you to sleep, lift your Lyds and get over to Maryland and try this immediately. Thanks very much to Mo (who is from Buffalo, not from MO) for insisting I go here. Which I am about to do again. Be back in a Mo.

    Updated Review: A…read moremuch better experience at Twisted. The customer service was very good and of course the pretzels were delicious. Prices are reasonable for a city pretzel vendor. Overall a good experience and I will visit again when at the Wharf. Previous Review: August 28, 2022 CUSTOMER SERVICE EXPERIENCE: I visited this pretzel shop at 6:24pm on Sunday, August 28th, 2022 and encountered a male employee at the service window who proceeded to ask how he could help me. When I informed him I wanted to purchase a salted pretzel he proceeded to tell me that there were no pretzels and that they were closed. He then said they had recently closed for the night a few minutes prior to my arrival and that they were only selling soft drinks. Considering the restaurant doesn't close until 7pm and the fact the employee's statement regarding operating status was so ambiguous, I asked a clarifying question, "are you closed or is it that you simply don't have anymore pretzels?" In my mind if a business says they're closed that means they are closed for business and not selling anything. He responded in a very disrespectful tone by saying "we're not open, that is what closed means." At that point I disengaged and simply asked him for his name. He informed me his name was Josiah. I'm not putting too much interest into whether or not that was really his name because he hesitated for a moment when I asked him. Normally that is an indication that someone just gave you the wrong name. To wrap up, having not purchased anything on this visit really is disappointing considering this was my first experience ever with this business. One in which the customer service was far from appropriate. Businesses can separate themselves from the pack in the area of customer service by how they treat potential customers when no sales transaction occurs. Whoever manned the service window on this day could benefit from additional coaching and mentoring in basic customer service.

I was expecting chill beer garden vibes, which has been the case at other similar spots I have been to. Sauf Haus was definitely not that, though part of it was definitely on us for not doing our research. Others have mentioned the two steep staircases. I happened to be in an unfortunate position where I have a knee injury and was in a brace, so that was challenging. Now, that isnt something my friend had remembered about Sauf Haus and I didnt think to look it up, so that is on me. I was able to make it up, but it was challenging. It seemed entirely inaccessible for those who have a disability (permanent or temporary) that renders them unable to go up stairs. When we got to the top, the first bartender we encountered seemed to be inconvenienced by us ordering. The bartenders we encountered in the outside area and later in the indoor portion were friendlier/more helpful, though. There was also a day party going on with a loud DJ, lots of dancing, and a mister/bubble machine, which is seemingly a weekly event. Again, I did not think to see if there was anything going on, and there is nothing wrong with that - it just was not what I expected in going here. What was more concerning was that, in the 2ish hours we were there, we saw at least 5 (likely more) people get kicked out. Manyyy people that i saw were struggling to stand and had the thousand yard stare in their eyes. Several people threw up. One guy straight up peed all over the floor of the men's room. Oh, and both bathrooms are left entirely open, and the men's urinals are directly inside the door. So that is all just...exposed, which I have never seen in a venue before (even at the diveiest of dives). It seemed like it was reasonable for security to kick out the people that they did, but it also seemed like bartenders were heavily overserving. And, again, this was all before 6:00 p.m., so I can only imagine it gets worse after that. They had a good beer selection and sell most beers in both .5 or 1 liter mugs. We got the 1lb soft pretzel, which came out hot and crispy. I loved that it had several different dipping sauces with it. It was tasty and reasonably priced. My friend and I were going to both get a beer flight (as advertised on the menu), but they only had one flight board available so I got a cocktail instead. They do charge a 20% "service charge" during certain hours on weekdays and all day on weekends, but they make sure to tell you that isnt a tip and that you should still tip extra. I got a couple cocktails, so my $14 drink turned into a $22 drink after tipping. The cocktails I had (Strawberry Smash and Feel the Passion) were really good. Overall, I am rating Sauf Haus a 3 because we were not their target demographic. Those in their target audience seemed to be having a great time, and I could see myself enjoying a spot like this when I was in college. But I do think there is an overserving problem and they could do better on some other customer service aspects, too, regardless.
