Answer

What was the name of the local donut store that was popular from the 1940s to the early 2000s?

ANSWER:

A: Montgomery Donuts

Founded in the 1940s with stores in Bethesda, Rockville and Silver Spring, Montgomery Donuts (originally called Dixie Cream Donuts) was a go-to place for county residents long before Dunkin’ Donuts. Despite being squeezed by national chains, Montgomery Donuts survived into the early 2000s when the collapse of its Rockville bakery put the company out of business.
