“Love Daniels! Burgers, brunch, biker bites, all yum. Staff beyond friendly.“

“My husband and I have been here at least a dozen times, have taken other friends as well. We are always greeted and told about the 20% being included in each drink order and we’re fine with that because the mixologists are fabulous, the atmosphere is wonderful and we will continue to patronize this wonderful establishment and support the city of Baltimore and a small business in the process.“

“The Backyard is the best neighborhood bar in Baltimore. Expertly curated wine and spirit list, knowledgeable and friendly staff with amazing food and cocktails that are all very reasonably priced. It is am absolute hidden gem!“

“Hosted us for a super 30th birthday, all staff were super nice and our guests loved the nacho bar ~ taco bar~ churros“

“Great neighborhood hang out. Patrons are totally chill and everyone is there for a good time. Bar tenders are awesome. Reasonably priced with lots of events. 10/10“

“We were a little surprised to start the evening by ringing a doorbell to get in, but the warm welcome that followed put us at ease right away. The atmosphere is fantastically unique, quirky, and full of character. The bartenders were genuinely friendly and the service was quick.

We ordered the Mac ’n’ Cheese with Jerk Chicken, Yuca Bites, Chorizo con Arroz y Gandules and the Cinnamon Mini Donuts. Everything was perfectly seasoned (especially great if you enjoy a bit of heat like we do). The only downside was that the portions felt a bit on the smaller side.

It also looks like they host a lot of interesting events like book readings, sip-and-paints, comedy shows and more. We didn’t get a chance to attend one this time, but it definitely added to the charm and made us want to come back.“

“On The Rocks Bar & Grill ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We recently hosted a birthday party at On The Rocks in Millersville, and it was truly an amazing experience from beginning to end. The owners were absolutely incredible — attentive the entire time and genuinely invested in making the celebration special. They went above and beyond to personalize the event, even helping us display a slideshow on the television screens, which added such a meaningful and fun touch for our guests. The food was fantastic and consistently replenished throughout the party — no one ever felt like they were waiting or missing out. And the drinks? On point all night long. 🍸👏 What really stood out was how hands-on and accommodating they were. You can tell they truly care about their customers and take pride in making events seamless and memorable. If you’re looking for a place to host a birthday, celebration, or private gathering in the Millersville area, I highly recommend On The Rocks. We felt completely taken care of and were able to relax and enjoy every moment. We’ll definitely be back! 🎉🥂“

“No food, it's a bar. A good neighborhood dive. A place where everyone is welcomed and I've seen it all. Stop in for one of the best drinks in town. Don't get me started about cost. You'll never drink anywhere else. They have an private outdoor space as big as the indoor area with seating and tables. I love this place..“

“Always a good time and friendly atmosphere“

“First Time here...Excellent Service And Atmosphere...And the food is Amazing...definitely 5 🌟...love my PEOPLE!!@@“

“Odie’s is a great local bar to hang out and soak up the atmosphere with good people. When you go, say a special hi to both Jamie and Ryan. They are always top notch on service and can make just about anything you’d want. I love coming here to watch sporting events, especially Football bc the screens are plentiful, clear and large in diameter. The best part is the food, which is amazing. My personal go to are the spicy peach wings. I think I’ve had them at least once for the past six weeks. I’d love to upload a pic of them, but I had a hard enough time to find this review section lol Check it out. You won’t be disappointed.“

“Convenient neighborhood liquor store, the only one in the area open on Sundays! Friendly staff are always helpful. Good selection with reasonable prices.

Parking: Parking available on both sides of the street directly outside the store and lounge. Also, a couple of spots on the side of the building.“

“I've never been in the actual bar Part but if I have to go to a liquor store in the neighborhood it is by far the best one. Good selection, reasonable prices, tend to keep a lot of the riff Raff and beggars from hanging out. The owners and people that work there are very nice also. There's at least 12 liquor stores right here within walking distance and if they're open they're the ones that I spend my money with. Even late at night I feel safe going to the ATM here.“

“Bobs bar in “Pig Town” ! Made me feel very welcomed and it was such a good vibe. I recommend this bar to anyone! These guys know how to serve people and deserve to have a good crowd every night! You will have an amazing time any night of the week! Ask for Karon & “White “ Mike !“

“Always a train wreck available. Choo Choo“

“Shuffles is a great spot to grab a cold drink and some good food. The burger and chicken parm are top notch and the specials are always delicious!“

“I personally knew the former owner and current owner, Erin. She is indeed one of the most straight forward no-shit kindest souls. This is the landmark of so many stories and ties in proud to call this bar my home bar, come, be kind be respectful, and you'll be good but a family atmosphere i highly recomend Maria, lita the rest are great but those are my girls“

“I reallly enjoyed my time here! I was able to catch a comedy show, & I hear they do brunch & other private events. I can't wait to come back! I got the Caribbean Blue, I believe it's called, & man on man ‍. Even the servers seemed to enjoy them selves, I love that bc they treated their customers w care & actually seemed to enjoy what they do! & DAMMIT are they good I live not too far, so I'll def be a regular. Can't wait for nfl szn, the Flock will be IT for me“

“Fun and friendly atmosphere with the best and freshest food at great prices.“

“Mannnnnn!! This place was ?, it's a hidden gem. We stumbled upon it last Thursday and they had a live band. Wow, she covered Erykah Badu and I've never in my life heard anyone cover Badu, it was fantastic!! The owner and staff was great and the food was delicious. No,it's not a restaurant but they had a pop up chef selling Dinners...amazing food! Now let's talk about the drinks....the bartender was enjoyable, kind and she understood what I needed!!! We had an incredible time and will be going back Thursday...don't let the appearance fool you, very quaint with good energy!!“

“Absolutely amazing. A true fine dining 5* experience from the service to the food. Will return again and again.“

“I made a reservation for my Hubby's birthday dinner.

This establishment was easy to locate, provided free parking, very clean, and had great tv's for sports viewing.

We were seated immediately upon arrival and greeted by Adam.
Adam had a great personality larger than life!!

Great recommendations, fantastic flow of food, and perfect for our party of 13.

Collectively, we ordered the following.

Firecracker Grilled Wings - Amazing
Brewpub Pretzel - Very tender, tasty, and huge. Magnificent mustard came w pretzel.
Crab Dip - Plentiful, above average.
Frisco Chicken Sandwich - DE-licious !!
Brickoven Pies (Cheese) - A table hit!!
Bayou Burrito - A lot of flavor, great size.
Cheesesteak Eggrolls - The table couldn't get enough of this yumminess!!
Cajun Chicken & Shrimp Pasta
Louisiana Red Jambalaya - Whoa! Large portion, flavorful, and very good.
Frisco Burger - Perfecto !! Very good.
Loaded Caesar (Small) - Fresh
Skillet Cookie- So rich, shareable.
Campfire Brownie - Rich in flavor, tasty.
Grand Marnier (Shot) - ** read below **
Long Island Iced Tea - VERY smooth!

Each and everything was great, except a double shot ordered at the table. It was smaller than a single shot. We didn't want to make a scene, so we dealt w it. But never again.

Overall, it was a great visit!
I look forward to returning to catch sporting events on 1 of the many TV's as well as Happy Hour.“

“The cocktails are amazing and the staff is super friendly and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend it.“

“Great local bar and pool hall with a jukebox in the back.
The spot has two pool tables, and the bartender poured some great drinks to get you a ripped for a fun evening.
Played a couple of games with some people and had a genuinely GREAT night.
It's definitely a valid low-key "chill spot" in Bmore.“

“A great place to enjoy some of Baltimore's BEST rye whiskey!“

“The owners are very pleasant The place is nice and clean always Love them like family“

“The owner tries hard to maintain a certain vibe at this place. He made it clear to me one day that johnnies is not a party spot. You go there for the stiff drinks. It has a small group of regulars and if you know who I'm referring to then you're probably one of them. But outside of them most people just keep to themselves. Like I said though, you go for the drinks and they're cheap & strong ( I've never had their food) .“

“Really like this place. Their fast and the food is always good. Well at lease what I order. Going to try some other things as soon as im in the mood for a change. I also don't eat out that often; but Kim's is a definite place i will go to“

“Happy that I finally found a place in Maryland that can make my hometown specialty drinks/shots and it hits close to home!💖 #ChucoTown“

“The food and drinks were great and so was our bartender. I didn’t get her name but she was a beautiful blonde. Thanks sweetie!“

“Better then Daniels air bar and restaurants good company and music and better atmosphere. You can have fun and be yourself“

“Great place with a wonderful vibe. Down to earth owner and the most friendliest and cheerful bartenders who can make some of the BEST cocktails.“
