Look. This is a great place, but for some reason the staff has changed. Attentive seasoned bartenders have been swapped out for new young folks taking shots at tables during busy nights. What’s up with that? At least we still have Skip, but still. If you lose him you’re toast. What a bummer.

This place is precariously clinging to its former greatness. Only a matter of time before the whiskey bottles are replaced with 15 bottles of flavored vodka and the great bartenders left are replaced with 24 year olds asking you if you want shots every 5 minutes.

I really hope the new owners don’t turn this place into a a clone of the other generic bars they own.. but it sure looks like that’s what they want to do.

Skip is still here, so enjoy it while it lasts, it’s an institution at serious risk of being run into the ground.

I’d driven past this place just about every day for the last five years and finally decided to stop in one Saturday afternoon back in October and wished I hadn’t waited so long to try it out. I’ve been back several times since then. The food is good with many options. Drinks are reasonably priced. Service is good. Mr. B. is cool, he’s usually tending bar if I go in the afternoon. Skip, pm bartender Tuesday to Saturday, is awesome. It’s a nice space with a game room as well as a spacious outside area. It gets pretty crowded for the live music and Ravens games. I’m not one for crowds, but I’ll go for the Ravens games because they have an oyster bar. The oysters are good and the prices can’t be beat. Half dozen oysters for $4, $8 or $12! From the menu the cheesesteak and wings are my favorites. The mac and cheese is some of the best I’ve ever had. If you like beer this place is for you. Check the pics to see their wide array of options. There’s also a wine bar and of course the fully stocked main bar. It’s now my favorite local hangout.

Stopped in today for the first time in many years. The inside of this Bar/Cafe is very spacious and welcoming. Cool pinball machines and pool table. The back outdoor space is wonderful. The pizza was great! Definitely will be stopping in again in the near future.
