That cheesesteak didn’t have to be that good! And the cream of crab was amazing! Decided to stop here for lunch and I’m so glad I did. They were packed when I went in so I knew it would be good. The wait was about 20 minutes. Definitely worth it! I’ll be back.
Side note: I opened it and started eating it in the car so the picture doesn’t do justice lol

Very rude staff. Learn how to appreciate your customers instead of berating them.

Very rude staff. Very micro aggressive towards a certain demographic of people. They do not deserve your money. Find somewhere else to go.

nice ambiance
The Hollow can get very crowded. Get there between 5 and 6 pm to get a seat, especially on nights when Orioles or Ravens play.

Awww, Loved it here. Stopped past on a late Sat afternoon with a gud friend after a movie @ Senator Theatre. Cute Cozy little Neighborhood Bar/Pub Dive located within Belvedere Square area here in Baltimore. Very Often, the simplest places are some of The Best food & service. Just come in, sit somewhere; we had no long wait. I discovered why they are Food Network Approved. ✌️
Menu was adequate. They do have Specials. Food didn't take that long but I can imagine when swamped might take longer: Worth the Wait though. This is some Delicious Home Cookin;' Not Fast Food. There is Care Put Into the food: You Can See & Taste it.
Very Cool, Laid-Back, Fun & Friendly Vibe. Not too crowded but still a decent amount of ppl relaxing, eating, enjoying. You will feel Comfortable here no matter who you are. Genuinely Cool Staff who are Nice, Friendly, & Efficient without being intrusive; they really take Care of u too.
Food was gr8! Everything came very warm almost hot. Quality meal & ingredients. 1 of THE BEST Crabcakes in town: Seasoned & Broiled to Perfection. Nice & Moist, tender : DELICIOUS. Never had a cake seasoned (SO Flavorful) that way + nice amount of crab w/ minimal filler. Luv the crispy fries w/a bit of potato skin. Nothing was oversalted which is happening in far too many restaurants now.
Good Portions. Tasty Wings & Fries. Reasonable Prices. Clean. Not TOO Loud. Temp inside not too hot or chilly but just right. You can sit back watch games/TV and/or just Chill & Talk. They were having a contest for Orioles Game and if you guessed the right #, u got a free drink. Another Hidden Gem here in Bmore. Will Be Back: Totally Recommend!💯✌️👍

The wings were great. Decent price drinks and food. It's a little tight, but it gives it that charm of a Baltimore bar.

Good appetizers and drinks 🍸 very reasonable drink places
This is our favorite spot for a nice cold beer, best burger and the most delicious fries ever!!
My first visit to Swallow At The Hollow was positive. This spot has a local dive bar feel, with friendly staff. It can get a bit noisy if there's a sporting event on TV.
The menu features plenty of Baltimore and Eastern Shore classics, such as cream of crab soup, crab cakes, and hand-cut French fries. The fries were fantastic – perfectly fried and even better with malt vinegar.
I had the soft-shell crab sandwich special (not on menu) which came on toast with mayo. I asked them to bring it on new bread, which they did without issue because I didn't know it came with mayo. A brioche roll would be a nice touch, but the sandwich was still delicious. The tomato slices were ripe, the pickle spear was good, and drink refills were timely.
I also tried my friend's French onion soup, which was a bit too salty for my taste and had some Italian seasoning on top that didn't quite fit. Maybe less salt and no Italian seasoning would improve it.
Prices were very reasonable, and I'd definitely return. Overall, it was a great experience, and I'd recommend Swallow At The Hollow to anyone looking for a nice local spot.
