Late Night Munchies In Laurel

And you thought you had to drive to Baltimore or D.C. to satisfy those hunger pains late at night. Not so. We've got the eateries to keep you right here in Laurel.

It’s 10 p.m. You’ve got serious munchies and the frig, like the kitchen cabinets, are much like your stomach - empty.

The problem is you’re not in New York City, you’re in Laurel where you might think the late night pickins’ are slim. You would be wrong. We drove around the city while most of you were sleeping and found a few pleasant surprises. Laurel has a good number of restaurants open until at least 10 p.m. during the weekdays and extended hours on the weekends. Most close by 9 p.m. on Sunday.

Laurel’s a small town but it has some big town benefits. For one, there are lots of diverse eateries to satisfy a range of palates. From bagels to beef kabobs, tacos to tilapia, salmon to salsa, there is no shortage of great places to eat. Another plus is there are an impressive number of restaurants which are open late and ready to serve more than snack food.

We haven’t covered all of Laurel’s late night eateries, but a fair amount of them are listed below. Be sure to call and verify the hours. Restaurants, especially the smaller ones, may fluctuate their hours on slow nights or changing seasons

Keep in mind, it’s best to get there at least 30 minutes before closing time so you won’t get the “look”  (you know what look) from the wait staff. The earlier, the better chances your favorite entrée will be there. Popular dishes go fast – that’s why they’re popular. Most of the eateries below are open until 11 p.m. on the weekends, but a few extend well beyond midnight. Also make sure you’re there early enough to place your order because some eateries will not take an order a few minutes before closing time.

We found that many customers either call in or just stop in and pick up their order. The height of restaurant crowds falls between 6 p.m. – 9:30 p.m. on weekends and tends to thin out substantially around 10 p.m.
