Hank Dietle’s Tavern opened In 1950, in the Offutt’s General Store building dating to 1916. Being the first bar to reopen after prohibition, it had the honor of receiving Montgomery County’s beer and wine license #001. Customers still come in and reminisce about the good old days at Dietle’s. Regulars from the 1970’s recall folks riding horses from River Road., tying them to the hitching post and having a drink. A classic dive bar in every sense of the word, Hank Dietle’s Tavern became a community mainstay on Rockville Pike, where generations of people had their first beer or stopped in for a six-pack to go on the way home.
