My favorite place to visit in Maryland. Never too crowded. Great food and drinks. Good parking.

If you're looking for a chill dive bar with strong drinks and yummy foods all night, go there for Kareoke

The chicken wings here are probably the best in the area. They’re crispy without being overcooked, and the Jack Honey BBQ sauce has just the right mix of sweetness and mild spice. The happy hour deals are great — $5 beers. The Bang Bang Shrimp is also nicely done, crispy with a fresh, tender texture. You can tell they use good ingredients. Definitely worth a visit.

Amazing food. Laid back atmosphere. Loved that it was tucked away, almost hiding in plain site.

Great smash burger. Good beer and prices are fair. Great trivia too! That weird halfway point between a dive bar and a higher end bar, I guess? Tough to describe. Everyone is nice though. Don’t expect too much.

Great staff and great local bar. The food is excellent, way above your typical bar food quality. Plenty of TVs, live entertainment and great selection of beer. If the weather is nive, there’s also outdoor seating on the deck. It’s a little hard to find if it’s your first time coming in (drive around behind a strip of stores) but worth a visit.

The food and drinks are really good, but the atmosphere was so gloomy and depressing at night, I really didn't like that.

Food was good and service was fast. The vibe is a mix of dive bar and local hangout. Not really my thing, but it is a good representation of HoCo.

I didn't get food this time, but this place is definitely worth a visit. It's definitely a typical Maryland style brew pub, sports TVs, local crowd, but the vibe is welcoming and the beer selection is decent. Lots of empty taps.
Monday nights seem ideal for their wings special alone.
Staff is friendly to customers and to each other (which is the true test of a well-run establishment.)
Good mix of customers, good vibe around the bar.

Great bulgogi and nacho cheesesteaks. The chicken sandwich is big and crispy. Absolutely delicious coastal quesadilla with crab and shrimp. Highly recommend!

This place is by far the best casual eating and drinking, family-friendly place I have experienced. Everyone is very friendly. The regulars are the kind of people that will give up their seat to an older person. Very polite and sincere. The staff is more than accomodating, prompt and respectful. Miss Jenna is amazing, with a very caring personality. She'll make sure your visit is a happy experience. Miss Taylor, with her contagious smile is always a pleasure to deal with. Both these ladies, and the guys, and all the support staff are the kind if people you just want to be around. Even when things get busy, their professionalism never fades. I can't say enough good things. Stop in and see for yourself. You won't be disapointed. Thank you Miss Joyce and Mr. Josh for assembling a much appreciated group of professionals. They are a fun group.

One of the best burgers I've ever eaten.... Got it again ... Just to be sure. It still was. Got the crab dip...very good as well. Nice atmosphere. Twice though they kinda forgot about us. Was done eating for a half hour and still no wait staff. Ended up getting a guy from the kitchen to get dessert and the check. Maybe sitting at the bar will help. Still would go back when I'm in the area again.
