“Restaurant is clean. Four booths, one table and a couple of chairs at the sushi bar. They do NOT take reservations. Nota BYOB. They do have an Adult Beverage menu. Just ask for it.

The order came out quickly. Presentation and freshness is as good as Sushi Q2. Everything was delicious.“

“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!“

“My husband and I met some friends for dinner here. We passed by multiple, but this was our first time in. It feels like an upscale sports bar when you walk in. The service was standard and the food was very good. I heard that the lamb was a dish people raved about, so I tasted it. It did not disappoint! The salmon bites were also delicious. We had a great time! I think just about anyone would enjoy themselves here. It's not too casual, but not pretentious.“

“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!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!!!!!“

“Great bartender Zack with crazy skills on cocktails.“

“What an absolutely incredible space. All of the glowing reviews before mine are spot on. Real candlelight, music perfect at setting the mood, and the drinks? Holy mother-of-pearl are they DELICIOUS. And the bartenders do NOT skimp on the alcohol. If you’re looking for a flavor experience, then THIS is the place to go.“

“Stopped by the coral wig love this place Josie is an amazing bartender drinks were delicious never had to wait for a drink she's definitely on her game great attitude you can definitely see that besides being an amazing bartender she is an amazing person highly recommend the coral wig“

“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“

“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.“

“This is one of my new favorite bars in Baltimore. The bartender, Steve, was so friendly and had the best energy about him. Excellent cocktails— especially the espresso martini and the ‘purple rain’. Some great ambiance, too. Highly recommend!“

“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!“

“We celebrated my daughter's bachelorette party weekend at the Power plant. I'm not that much into Country music, but the PBR was definitely the best part of the trip!“

“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.“

“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! ?“

“Our new favorite spot in Fells Point.“

“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!“

“Mount Royal Tavern is the epitome of a dive bar. 90% of its patrons are long-standing locals who have been coming there regularly for years to unwind their day with a drink or three. Always like a family environment. Always welcoming newcomers. The only food served is something very close to chips and pretzels but you're free to bring your own or get something delivered. Drinks are cheap. I mean CHEAP, but not diluted, with very generous servings. When it's warm, they often throw the grill on in the back and you never know if someone is serving fish that they just caught or just some hot dogs with a few others who've chipped in to do a potluck. This establishment has been around for decades. If you've ever seen Cheers, Mount Royal Tavern is definitely the Baltimore equivalent, but better.“

“It made me feel like home! 😍“

“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.“

“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.“

“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“

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

“Awesome place. Good beer. Great atmosphere.“

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

“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!“

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

“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!“

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

“The service provided was first class. I went with a group of friends to watch the NFL DRAFT. The food was great and the staff were awesome. I would highly recommend this restaurant. we will be going back.“

“Great service by Nolan and great food“

“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!!

Vegetarian options: No food sold here but you can order to the bar“

“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 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!“

“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.“

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

“Hello! My husband and I visited the Baltimore inner harbor location and our waiter Ruslan was top tier! His services was A1, it’s a most you visit!! TheWiseWay“

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

“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.“

“Shuffles is a great spot to grab a cold drink and some good food. The burger and chicken parm are top notch and the specials are always delicious!“

“Loved it. Blue collar, friendly, sports bar with awesome wings. Everyone at the bar was really friendly and the waitresses and bartender did a great job.

Wings were top notch, I like wings a little crispy and these were perfect. The buffalo sauce was exactly when it needed to be…I’d go back and recommend to anyone. Great place to catch an Os game.“

“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!“
