“This Yard House has a fantastic bartender in Sean. we are from NY and he was super personable, made effort to chat with us directly. Really fun personality. Guys like him are hard to find. This particular Yard House is very very lucky to have him , great dude.“

“Back to this hang out place. I used to come here almost every weekend with my friends. Eat drinks and dance. I always love the beautiful the oudoor area and the country line dancing floor. This has many young crowds now. I felt so old coming bacl. But while am in here visiting i just want to see and reminisce the old good days. The cover charge is $10.00.“

“The food is absolutely amazing!!! We took our picky 5yo who ate every single thing on plate!!! The service was great in addition to delicious food!!!! We will be back!!!!“

“Service and food was subpar and overpriced. The game room was very lively and the kids loved it. Games are a bit on the pricey side. Definitely need to get a pass or a deal. Otherwise the credits go very quickly. 8-16 credits with occasional 6 credit or 16 credit game.“

“I go to foleys all the time and I love it there! The wings are amazing and I love all the Guinness combos they have. The only thing that would make it better is if there was a tv in place of the chalkboard that is above the middle of the bar. If you’re sitting in the middle of the bar you have to crane your neck around to watch anything, having a tv there would be awesome!“

“The atmosphere is friendly and lively. the cocktails were interesting, and may have even converted my gin-hating husband. The bartenders, Ted especially, really rounded out the experience. one of the best places in the city!!!!!“

“Absolutely Beautiful establishment great scenery and delicious cocktails 🔥🔥…...“

“My husband and I stopped by for a drink, and ordered the cream of crab soup, gf fried shrimp, and the honey maple brussel sprouts. Everything was delicious! Special thanks to the bartender, Lee, who was very attentive!“

“Went on a Friday night and the drinks were bangin' and the staff very responsive. Never waited very long at rhe bar to order, and the drinks were well balanced with a diverse menu. Love this newer addition to the Clavel/WC Harlan family.“

“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!“

“I heard the stories about this place and it had been closed for a couple of years as the hotel it's in underwent renovation and ownership changes but it's back open and I couldn't be happier.

Steve the bartender is currently a one man show and we were there on the weekend it reopened and he was so happy to be back in his happy place. The man is a cocktail maven who loves his craft and what he does and his customers as well.

There is currently no menu here you ask for what you want or can tell Steve what you are in the mood for and he will make something amazing!

I got a smoked old fashioned that he smokes with his own blend of wood and spices and it was easily in the Top 5 of best old fashioneds I've ever had.

If you are in Fells Point looking for a cocktail and Anchor Tavern is open make sure you visit!“

“Doug is the best. This is our favorite neighborhood spot. Cocktails are on point, wine selection is simple but good and reasonably priced, and the smash burgers are f-ing fire 🔥 and we love Doug’s company, and Kirsten’s, and all of his staff. We love Southpaw!“

“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“

“I came here after dinner in Fells, and it was such a cool, swanky vibe—definitely not what I expected from a hotel bar in Baltimore!

Drinks were good and reasonably priced, but it did take a while to get our order in. We didn’t have to wait for a table (even on a busy weekend), which was a win for our group of four.

Great spot for a date night or hanging out with friends. Giving it a 3.5 but rounding up because the vibes were good.“

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

“One of our Favs! Wine tastings with Wayne❤️Meg rocks. Tristan is the best.“

“Worked there years ago for John. He has passed but the memories are still there. Oh the things I did on that pool table. LOL Great memories.“

“Our new favorite spot in Fells Point.“

“Excellent service and great cocktails!“

“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.“

“Section 771 helped to raise nearly $5000 for the Wishlist Foundation! Thank you for hosting the Pearl Jam PreParty! Your staff was friendly, fast, and kind. Best bar bathrooms in Baltimore! Super clean facility. Check them out before Orioles and Ravens games. Thank you for supporting the community!“

“great venue, very friendly and professional staff. first venue I've ever been to that let me take my merch haul out to my car so I didn't have to worry about lugging it around or standing in line waiting after the show ended. Also quick to respond to questions. Thank you for a great show experience!“

“Great bartender Zack with crazy skills on cocktails.“

“Max's Taphouse is one of my favorite spots in Fells Point sometimes service can be a little tough here because there's usually only one bartender however it is a fantastic spot and one of the oldest bars in Fells Point I highly recommend you at least visit once in order to check it out there's so many bars in Fells Point it's hard to hit them all but this is one of my favorites the food is fantastic beer selection is great however I did ask the bartender about cider and he immediately said we only have it in cans which was wrong they had two different ciders on draft so maybe just read the menu for yourself since it seems to bartender may not know exactly what's on draft. If you are a cider fan I highly recommend you check out the DownEast fall cider it is delicious and on draft I'll recommend it since the bartender didn't even seem to know!“

“What a great local spot! Harry is the best!! Vegas loves u!“

“I really enjoyed myself I can’t wait to come back“

“good food.good staff. awsome drinks“

“Excellence Love Love Tim dale Phil“

“This place is very low key and inviting. The drinks were amazing, the cool part about this place is that they have the NA version of the drinks as well. ABC cocktail is very very good. This is the first place I liked the hot cocktail. The staff is very friendly. I highly recommend this place.“

“This is a great local bar with a lot of character. You won't find friendlier people anywhere. Classic old school decor inside and on the night we were there, DJs spinning the disks at your request. Wander upstairs and check out the record store while you're there. This is a must hang in Baltimore.“

“Enjoyed a selection of delicious cocktails, dessert and chilled beers served by attentive and friendly bartenders. Highly recommend stopping by.“

“Amazing bar ! Great drinks 🍹 great customer service! Great atmosphere“

“I couldn’t love this place more. From all the laughter Spencer gives me to loving all the tricks and having my mind blown! Then to the other half of the show, Nicole being an awesome bartender I do believe I’m gonna make this a yearly event with my wife and always try to get more people to experience this for years to come!!!!!“

“Cool, cozy music venue upstairs. Good people, great vibes. The room sounds great. Looking forward to performing there next week.“

“This place is so cozy and adorable. The food was truly so tasty. The tendies and fries were clearly much more elevated than your standard pub version. Great mocktails too! Friendly service and a really fun idea to be able to buy art to do at a bar. A Baltimore must go!“

“Idle Hour is a Baltimore gem 💎
And when DJ Mudbone is on the 1s and 2s, it’s next-level. His deep crate picks and seamless genre-blending set the perfect vibe for a smooth, silky, and fun night. 🎶
🍹The Jungle Bird cocktail? Crafted to perfection, as always. Whether you’re here for the vinyl, the cocktails, or both Idle Hour never misses. Highly recommend!“

“Terrific new local small business in OEC making great Vodka and Gin!! This is run by a great friend of mine and will be a terrific addition to OEC.“

“Great place for all genres of music worshippers to come together and JAM !“

“This is the spot to be!!!! Great bartenders.“

“Had Dimples Cheesesteak for the first time on Friday - ordered on Toast and picked up. First off Miss Mary was a delight to talk to and was so welcoming. Got home and ate the MOST delicious cheesesteak I think I’ve EVER had. So much delicious fresh meat. Great roll and great flavor!!!“

“The bartenders are AMAZING! Amber and Miss Jenny are above and beyond expectations!!!❤️❤️❤️ The margaritas, shots, and menu are the best. Try the Asian side of the menu!!!!“

“So look.. I am always good for a hood spot and initially tht was my impression but then I stepped inside.. Babbbbbbby the bartender.. the owner took great care of us.. It was karaoke & ppl were singing and having a great time.. I am def going bk.. family oriented..good food..just a great time!“

“Always a good time and friendly atmosphere“

“Good news, bad news. The croquettes and tuna tartar were delicious. The olives and octopus were okay. The paella was terrible. The menu lists all these ingredients that were clearly not included. The chicken breast on top was hammered. The dish was very oily and there was no socorrat which is the quintessential paella characteristic. I'm sure it's not easy to train staff how to do this well so take it off the menu until you get it right.“

“Great place to come hang out and have a drink Awesome bartenders!!“

“Just stopped in to cool off and enjoy some brews! Loved the selection of whiskey and beers on tap🍻. Makes me want to listen to Irish ☘️ music as soon as we walked in! Bartender was very nice and professional. ✌️👍👍must check this one out 🫵🚗💨“

“Great Value!!!!! Great neighborhood bar“

“I love this country bar with pool tables and a shuffleboard. Great song choices on jukebox. Bartenders are always friendly.“

(I'm 36 ) Anywho, karaoke fri-sunday, game days are amazing for football and baseball, pool table and games in the back, movie nights, and the best customers! Don't hesitate! Just come here!! You'll love it!!
