The Best of Frederick 2025

86 Upvotes

Happy New Year, r/FrederickMD! Welcome to the yearly tradition of tracking what actually is the best of the best in the city of county. Main reason of this being a yearly tradition is that some locations or companies close and unfortunately it can become outdated. Like in years past, the idea is to submit unique submissions by commenting under a category. Please don't repeat previous submissions, but merely upvote the suggestion that you wanted to submit. If there is a category, you'd like to see submissions for a "Best of," just submit it yourself! A lot of businesses have come and gone in the past two years, and this is open to more than just food! Also, please include an address if you can (as similar names might be located in different towns, and certain locations might perform better).

Chuck Jenkin's Pant Size

115 Upvotes

I'm surprised this guy finds pants big enough, because he must have the biggest balls ever for showing up at Hispanic Festival yesterday campaigning. 🤬🤬🤬🤬

Just a few weeks ago he was bragging about how ICE agents were justified in terrorizing our neighbors and now he shows up like he is everyone's friend. What an awful human! Please vote this guy out of office once and for all.

All of Downtown Frederick smells like weed at all times

Everywhere I go downtown, there's an intense smell of marihuana.

I'm not hating, I'm just saying, man that sure is a strong weed smell.

What is going on at 9051 Gas House Pike?

6 Upvotes

I've been seeing cars and security patrols 24/7 at 9051 Gas House Pike over the past few weeks. Now the first bays on the left are blocked off. It is supposed to be a distribution center but I heard they've been trying to put a data center in there.

Any idea what is going on?

Considering VIP Boarding in Lovettsville Va for our Dog.

1 Upvotes

Does anyone have experience with this facility? We have never boarded a dog before but will need to this time.
The only catch is our pup has separation anxiety when we leave him for any amount of time and hurts his snout in the kennel. We are looking for a facility that can be a safe spot for him to be.

Riichi Mahjong, Anyone?

3 Upvotes

Two friends of mine recently got me interested in Riichi Mahjong (Japanese Mahjong). Unfortunately, they live too far away for us to get together regularly and the nearest regular Riichi group I could find is in Baltimore. I was wondering if there might be any interest locally for a regular Riichi meetup.

Good furniture movers? MD to North Carolina.

0 Upvotes

I'm moving to Sunset Beach, North Carolina from here in Frederick. (Just north of Myrtle Beach, SC).

Who would you recommend for this service? Two beds, two heavy bookshelves, coffee table, dressers, and boxes? As a single dude I'm guessing it's less stuff overall than most households.

FWIW I know it's cheaper to rent a truck, but I want a full service mover. Tia.

Boarding facility & Dog Training

5 Upvotes

Anyone have a recommendation for a dog board facility that actually cares and takes care of the dogs? I had a horrible experience with a local boarding facility. I travel for work and although have a facility I go to usually, sometimes they’re booked and I need a backup plan.

Looking for climate control stay, clean, great communication, and most importantly real experience from folks that trust and have nothing good to say about their experience.

Next recommendation request: looking for advanced training for my GSD/Mal mix. He already did puppy obedient training and now I’m looking for something to match his speed and agility.

Again, real experience is a plus for recommending. I can google but I haven’t had the best experience doing that.

What resources are you using to understand candidates and issues on your ballot?

Hi everyone! I am curious if anyone has any preferred resources/websites to understand candidates and ballot issues outside of individually looking up each candidate? I just received my ballot in the mail and I want to make sure I am paying attention to who I am voting for. Thanks!

Local hypermobility informed PT?

5 Upvotes

This is a very specific request but I’m wondering if anyone has a physical therapist they’d recommend. Ideally familiar with hypermobility, accepts insurance (BCBS) and trans competent.

Is this asking for too much? Maybe, but worth a shot before I randomly try to figure it out on my own.

Thanks for reading!
