Any spot with the motto “We believe in life, liberty and the pursuit of pretzels” is a spot you need to try. Because pretzels and happiness are essentially the same thing, right? The founder of The Pretzel Bakery is a local guy with fond childhood memories that all center around a good soft pretzel. So, he set out to create memories like that for families in the DC area. 

Their online ordering system is simple and allows you to place your order for curbside pickup in minutes. While they obviously serve up some of the best soft pretzels you’ll find near The Residences at Eastern Market, they also take it up a notch with a few unique twists. If you have a sweet tooth, you can’t check out without a pretzel bomb in your bag. It’s a pretzel bun, stuffed with Nutella and topped with cinnamon glaze. If savory is more your style, their calzones made with pretzel dough are the perfect go-to lunch! 

Pair your pretzels with La Colombe coffee or a sweet tea latte. You won’t be disappointed!
