So good. Cocktails, food, and atmosphere are spot on. Worth leaving the main vein of downtown Frederick for.

Food review

Benztown offers great Southern hospitality and food. We couldn’t be happier to find this place while wandering around Historic Frederick.
Food wise:
Benztown’s fried green tomatoes have a perfect balance of crispiness on the outside which comes from the light batter and tenderness on the inside from the tomatoes. The tomatoes themselves are slightly firm and tangy, not mushy, with the tartness complementing the crunchy exterior. Topped with pickled vegetable relish and a ranch sauce, these fried green tomatoes are perfect for a starter dish which goes real well with a lager.

The Southern 5-egg omelette with smoked beef brisket, smoked mozzarella cheese, bell peppers, and onions is rich, smoky, and savory. The omelette is soft and fluffy which acts as a mild base that lets the other ingredients shine. The smoked beef brisket brings a deep, robust smokiness with slightly chewy bites of meat. The smoked mozzarella adds creaminess and enhances the smoky profile. Bell peppers and onions add sweetness to the whole dish. This omelette definitely creates a hearty, indulgent dish with layers of smokiness, sweetness, and savory richness. The only thing that could make this dish better would be make the barbecue sauce more tangy and less sweet.

The 2 tender biscuits have a buttery flavor that complements the creamy and well-seasoned gravy which had a richness from the mushrooms. The use of cremini mushrooms add a hearty, slightly earthy flavor, to the sauce which coats the biscuits without overwhelming them. The adding of a slightly bitter “wilted greens” and 2 sunny side up eggs make this dish a delicious comfort-food dish. This is definitely the star of Benztown’s brunch.

Overall, the food and the excellent service here means we will be back for either dinner or on a Sunday to sample other dishes while enjoying music.

Been there for dinner and brunch. Both were great. I'd recommend the potato chips with blue cheese and hot sauce but everything I had was good.

We tried Benztown for dinner as we were attending a pumpkin succulent making event there afterward. The food was fantastic, as was the wine. The venue is very cool as well, and the bar was hopping.
At our pumkin event, Benztown provided two appetizers, a shrimp salad crostini and a small bite of their chicken and waffle. Both were so yummy. We topped off the event with their delightful pumpkin espresso martini!
