“i’ll never eat this good again GOD LAWWWWDDDDD 😍😍😍😍“

“Foleys is the go to place for anything! As a regular I can say the food and drinks are always phenomenal. I reserved the upstairs for the first time for a nursing school graduation party! Mark was amazing at helping me facilitate this! Mark answered all of my questions leading up to the party and helped me make sure the day would be great!

Scott did a great job working the bar during our event! Meg was fantastic at the downstairs bar for people grabbing drinks on their way up. 10/10 recommend having an event here! The staff will treat you like family!“

“I adore this spot for a fun and cozy happy hour with my friends! Last night, Georges was our waiter, and he was absolutely wonderful—so kind, patient, and attentive, even on a bustling Friday night. Our favorites are the wings, lamb chops, and steamed shrimp—they never disappoint! And you simply have to try the blush sangria (a delightful mix of red and white wine). Cheers!“

“This is a typical bar with with bar food. No Different than TGI Friday, except a little better. The service is "OK" the servers are untrained as to waiting on tables. The first thing that should be brought to tables is eating utensils and napkins, the water. The tables dont have slat & pepper available for their patrons, you need to ask for it. The menus are not placed in front of customers upside down. (And I even brought it to her attention and she still didn’t correct it) ?? All in all the server was trying very hard to be attentive. The food was not terrible, it's typical bar food, and dont expect anything more. The Boom Boom shrimp are pre breaded frozen shrimp with the tails on and then fried and covered in some type of sauce. My daughter liked the boneless chicken wings with hot sauce. The onion rings I thought were good. I ordered the toasted Italian sub and wasn't offered the option to get tater tots -vs- fries. I didn’t realize this till later and the fries were soggy. I think this is an "OK" spot for someone looking for a bar atmosphere and same for the food & service.“

“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!!!!!“

“Steve, you are an absolute legend and godsend. This place is top priority on our visits. We were so lucky the first time in Fell's Point to have two women tell us "you NEED to go down there and have a drink." Best advice ever given. Steve even remembered me months after our first trip. Don't get upset with how long it takes for your drink to get made. Absolute perfection and well worth the time and money. Old fashioned and whiskey sours go down so smooth. Any time we travel there... "Let's go see Steve!" Keep him there. He makes that place.“

“One of my favorite bars in Baltimore! Excellent candle-lit ambience, delicious and unique drinks/mocktails, great meet-up spot and conveniently close to Clavel. Does get quite busy and crowded at times so seating may be tight, and service can be slow as a result, but understandable!“

“Dude, this place smacks. Super welcoming vibe, great prices, great drinks, and even greater service. The owner and the bartender were a pleasure to hang out with and they make sure to immediately give water to every patron and top you off constantly, which shows they care. Absolutely love their dressed beers selection - I usually order a dressed beer of some sort and never see it listed on paper. I cannot stress how good a Spaghett is - it's my go-to, please try it. As DnD nerds we had to do the Critical Roll. We meant to just stop by for a nightcap after dinner but ended up staying and watching movies and bantering with the gracious hosts for many rounds. I wish I wasn't a tourist because I'd make this my regular haunt if I lived here.“

“Nice service, and my table was ready in accordance with my reservation time (not always the case with certain places).

The ambiance steals the show. Great vibes for a business or casual conversation, that’s not centered exclusively around dining.

For a bottle of sparkling water, a cocktail, and a mocktail, I paid $40 before tip.

The cocktail I got tasted like medicine a little bit. The one with vodka that’s $14. I had to add my sparkling water to make it palatable. The mocktail was cool, not sweet and not super memorable.

The cocktail my friends got, though, was SO good. It was green in color and had froth. Get that for sure. Moderate street parking.“

“Our favorite place in Baltimore filled with really great people.“

“The cheeseburger was fantastic! The bartender was superb for drinks and conversation. Dive bar excellence.“

“Absolutely loved my experience at The Coral Wig Bar in Baltimore—a must-visit spot! The atmosphere was vibrant and welcoming, perfect for a fun night out. I had the pleasure of trying their Cane’s Old Fashioned, Estate Martini, and Pray for Rain cocktails, and each one was expertly crafted and full of unique flavors. The bartender is clearly passionate about the craft, paying attention to every detail to make each drink an experience on its own. Whether you’re a cocktail enthusiast or just looking for a fantastic place to unwind, The Coral Wig Bar is a gem you won’t want to miss. Highly recommended!“

“Great bartender Zack with crazy skills on cocktails.“

“Hands down one of the most fun evenings me and my bestie have done in long time. Spencer was witty, worked the crowd and had us all in awe of his tricks. I don’t like driving in the city, but I have already told my husband we are going back. You won’t be disappointed!“

“Excellence Love Love Tim dale Phil“

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

“We were in town for a Tree Care Industry trade show at the Baltimore Convention Center, and hosted a HUGE party at Power Plant Live! It was the ultimate venue for our 1,000+ guests, and we took over Luckie's, PBR and the alley to hold a climbing competition. Rachel, the venue coordinator, was exceptional throughout the entire process, and made sure our party went off without a hitch. The Power Plant Live staff and team were great to work with — always professional, going above and beyond to assist, and seemed to truly enjoy their jobs. Everything was customizable to our needs, and they had wonderful local vendor recommendations for services they didn't provide in house.

As someone planning this corporate party from afar and in a short time frame, I couldn't have been happier with the service I received and the party we threw! I would highly recommend hosting your corporate / trade show parties here — it really is the perfect spot!“

“Attended a party last Saturday her and everything was great! The food, service and atmosphere was amazing! A great time was had by all. A very special thank you to Danyelle, her amazingly efficient service and fun personality made the party from good to great!“

“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!“

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

“Very nice atmosphere really nice crowd“

“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.“

“Max’s has been my home away from home for the last 20 plus years. From the massive collection of very enjoyable beers spirits and whiskey to the amazing food and atmosphere and bartenders whose knowledge will help a novice beer drinker to find the perfect beverage for their pallet Max’s Taphouse will always be my number 1 choice. I encourage everyone to come by and enjoy their personal experience as well.

“The food was ABSOLUTELY delicious! The drinks were made to perfection! The playlist was nostalgic. The employees were wonderful! Kyla (spellcheck) and Courtney were amazing! Thank you ladies for making our first visit memorable! The location was not hard to find either! It looks small but it’s VERY spacious! ?“

“It made me feel like home! 😍“

“The beer selection is great, along with wine and cocktails as well! You can grab a beer here before you browse the food options in the marketplace, which is what I do.Service is always good and friendly, and you can get a taste of a beer before you commit to a whole glass, which is always awesome.They also do beer to go! You can get a reusable container of any of the beers.

Parking: Street parking is rarely a problem! Just check the signs to confirm you're in a good spot, but in general it's not a problem at all!“

“Marta manages to be both lively and cozy simultaneously in a rowhouse that previously housed Salt (one of my all time favorite upscale restaurants) We went for a friend's birthday, and all 3 courses were delicious, beautifully presented, inventive, and not the same old menu that you find everywhere. Very sweet wait staff was super attentive, educated about the food and wine and made great suggestions. Our original wait staff had an emergency and had to leave in the middle of service, but seamlessly another wait person stepped in to covered us. Kudos to the front of house team for handling with such skill and ease. But the food was definitely the star of the show. For me, the standout was the tuna cannoli. I'm not even sure I can do justice to this deliciousness with a crunchy outer "cannoli" shell with a slight hint of sweet surrounding a creamy center of tuna crudi with little dots of avocado cream. And all was covered with a pistachio "dust." The spicy meatballs were delectable nestled in a cloud of creamy spicy ricotta. And the Duck and Foie Gras Panzotti (little triangle ravioli) was creamy, delicious and the perfect combination of delicate tastes. And the Tiramisu Affogato ended the dinner on a delicious note! And for two people with drinks it was really pretty a good deal for the quality if the food, service and location. We will be back! Food: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5“

“The Greyhound Tavern is a beautiful slice of everything that gives Baltimore its heart and soul. Molly and Dave have created the perfect space to get a drink with your friends, filled with art, memories, mementos from customers, and a bangin sticker wall in the bathroom (bring additions). The cocktails are on point and are ALWAYS on theme both seasonally and for their amazing events (shoutout to their monthly Chasing Tail: Unchained and RuPauls Drag Race), Molly’s house-made sangria is out of this world, and every night Dave has the best music on rotation for a perfect time. 90% of the time it is something new that I walk away loving. I’ve been going to the Greyhound for so long, I can’t believe I haven’t left a review yet, and yet after another wonderful night there here we are. The best prices in Fells Point and the best drinks in Baltimore.“

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

“Our new favorite spot in Fells Point.“

“This place is authentic, wonderful and a great time. We were visiting from outside the state and stumbled upon Idle Hour and it did not disappoint. The bar tender was friendly, the drinks are very good, and the music was on fire. A really great place!“

“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!“

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

“Awesome place. Good beer. Great atmosphere.“

“Love it! It's a great place to hang with friends. This may be our new regular post bocce hang out.“

“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.“

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

“What makes a bar a "dive"? First it has to be around for a long long time. MRT yes. Second it can never have it's own website. MRT yes. Third no credit debit cards ever. Cash only. MRT yes. Fourth is cheap and strong drinks available. MRT yes. Never ever been redecorated. It has to look the same as is did 20 30 40 years ago. MRT yes. Optionally shoud be dark inside. MRT yes.

Yes the MRT is a dive. May it never change.“

“Excellent experience! While my bestie was having brain surgery at Johns Hopkins I walked down to this neighborhood bar. I met the manger Dave and the bartender Merideth. Awesome people they listened to what I was going through and they were so kind and understanding. The environment is awesome and so is the clientele. Good music everything from punk, rock, and pop. But it definitely wasn’t to loud. A total non judgement zone. All different walks of life. Great pool table also. I will be visiting this bar every time I’m in Baltimore. This is definitely a hidden gem in charm city! Thanx Spirit Tavern!“

“What a wonderful time I had last night! First time visit and I was welcomed like family! Drinks were on point and the music was great. The cigar selection was light but they had a great selection.
Definitely will be a reoccurring visitor!“

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

“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.“

“We stopped in for brunch on Sunday before heading back home. The eggs and lemon pancake was the best I’ve ever had, service outstanding, the dining room breathtaking!

Parking: Parking can be challenging. Luckily you can valet your car!“

“I just hosted my husband’s 40th birthday here and the experience from start to finish was EXCELLENT! Candice was great to work with, designing a buffet menu and a space arrangement that worked with my party theme (murder mystery party for ~35 guests). We had the whole top floor and the vibes were immaculate and they set up the room exactly to my specifications and even made a couple changes on the fly (thank you!). I heard from so many people how great the food was — personally I LOVED the meatballs and the okra. Guests loved the wings, mac n cheese, channa masala, and sausage & rice especially. We had good drinks, friendly service, and an altogether wonderful time. Thanks so much to the Old Major team for making the evening perfect!“

“Food was delicious and our server Natasha was so friendly and helpful with all of my many questions and requests!“

“Great place to go. Always have great bands, food is good & reasonably priced. Love the outdoor seating. Owners are great people!!“

“This is the best place in Fed!!! (For dive bars that is haha) The service, bartenders, manager, owners and just stellar! I've been coming here about six years and I'll be coming here til I'm 60! (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!!
