Max Brenner will be bringing a chocolate bar to Bethesda Row as a part of the shop's new location, chocolate chain CEO Sam Borgese confirmed in a statement to Bethesda blogger Robert Dyer.

“Bethesda Row has unique style and taste and we’re excited to introduce it to our chocolate culture," Borgese told Dyer. "The location will premiere our new and exciting pure Chocolate Bar, a concept that focuses heavily on our famous sweets, desserts, pastries and beverages. We look forward to delighting Bethesda and the entire DC metro area with all of Max’s sweet icons.”

The company has locations across the country and in Israel, Singapore, Australia and the Phillippines, according to its website. Patrons can taste test offerings like truffle cream, pralines, pastries and cookies at the shop's signature chocolate bar.

The chain will occupy the former Ritz Camera space on Woodmont Avenue.
