Rodman's is a grocery store and pharmacy in the Friendship Heights neighborhood of Washington, D.C. The popular local discounter has been family-owned and operated since 1955. Rodman's has been anointed by the Washington Post as the "Weirdest Little Drugstore In Washington".
First located at 5317 Wisconsin Ave., a fire destroyed its original building in May 1965. Rodman's moved to a new location at 5100 Wisconsin Avenue in October of that year, where the flagship store still resides today.
Initially a discount drug store, Rodman's began selling discount gourmet foods in 1983. Today Rodman's has 2 additional locations in Maryland and sells a large selection of international foods, beer and wine, and a wide range of housewares and health and beauty supplies in the basement of the DC location.
