50 Best Pubs near Towson

“Melanie was amazing! Although there was a miscommunication about a reservation we had, she was able to quickly find meaningful solutions.
I enjoyed the pineapple crush as well as the nachos and mozzarella sticks. My friends and I had a great time here. One of the best spots in Towson Uptown.“

“Excellent Food!! And great atmosphere!!“

“question ! why are the uncooked 11oz crab cakes more than the 11oz cooked crab cakes that come with sides?“

“Wow! No wonder The Wren has been voted one of the best in the country! We got there on a Thursday at around 640p and got a table right away! Incredible meal, perfectly presented, and wonderful service! Loved the selections and again amazing and so inventive! Definitely will spread the word and return again!“

“This bar is the perfect mix of nostalgia, eclectic funk, and delightful interesting people. Came here on a Sunday afternoon to listen to some live music. Everybody is friends here they have tons of beer on tap, yummy cocktail. And the type of decor that keeps you discovering something every minute. Shout out to David and Morgan for taking such good care of their patrons. Will be spending my whole summer here! Rock on! 🤘 💕🙌🏽“

“My friend and I have been trying Pubs and eateries in the Baltimore area and this one popped up on Trip Advisor. We decided to give it a try and we are glad we did. This is a friendly neighborhood Pub and Grill that screams good food & service. The lady running the grill should be named a grill master with everything she makes. The burgers are at least ¾ of a pound of quality beef and made exactly the way you ask and the fries are freshly cut and prepared. I also had the Jerk Chicken strips, which were delicious (Not the quantity I expected for $12.00) but very good. I saw the wings come out for someone else and they looked good too. The young lady making drinks was exceptional with her knowledge of mixology. I am going to make it a point to bring my neighbor and her boyfriend here next time. I live on the North side of Baltimore city, but this is worth the drive.“

“Had the crab cakes they were phenomenal very lump and perfectly made“

“Great pizza and bourbon selection“

“I was on vacation and visited “The Horse You Came in On” and it ended up being one of the highlights of my trip. The atmosphere was incredible, from the moment I walked in, the energy of the crowd and the vibe of the space made it feel special. The staff were friendly and helpful, and grabbing a drink at the bar was quick and easy!! Can’t wait to visit again! The Owner Eric is a great guy as well!!“

“The people are what make the place. My father (Richard Roden) spent many a year either working there of going for his 3pm beer. The love and caring of these people amaze me and while it was odd being in there today with out him. I understood why he never wanted to miss a day there. Thank you to all for looking after my Dad and giving him a home away from home.“

“Sad that security can't even do their own job and make sure patrons get back to their vehicles safe. This clown decided he was going to assault my daughters mother as she was leaving your establishment & put his hands on her. Then has the audacity to tell her he will smack her while she's on the phone with me. On a better note, I am paying for any information on the gentleman in the picture. Name, address, and I will keep it confidential. This type of behavior from a grown man that can't take no is unacceptable and I need to find him before the police do. Please and thank you. I also have a video of some of the events that she recorded of anyone wants proof.“

“Great food, good drinks. The bartender was awesome. I think she is the manager as well.“

“Came for only a few nights to Baltimore from Texas. People are friendly.. staff is also as well as attentive. Ruben sandwich was great according to my take next to me the blt was just as good. Prices are average but atmosphere and people make it better! Will come back tomorrow before I leave!“

“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!“

“My local dive for 20 years. Always have a good time there! Great bartenders, super friendly owners and really good food! Especially the Cheesesteak and Bayou Jalapeño Burger!“

“Jim the owner treated us like family. Myself and my children were there Father’s Day weekend. Can’t wait to go back soon.“

“Let me start off by saying I visited this quaint little pub for the first time on 2/25. It's not located in the greatest of neighborhoods but it is well worth the risk of bodily harm to visit. The beer is cold, the bartender was a peach and like a previous reviewer stated, there is even a friendly little fella that lives on a dog bed there. I think he is more of a beer gnome than a hobbit though. He wasn't so friendly at first but once he got a few beers in him he cheered right up. Great place, 5 stars for sure“

“Nice gem in the middle of Perry Hall“

“Great food, people and environment! Always consistent.“

“Very nice neighborhood watering hole!! Staff friendly food is fabulous and the music guest this evening was great too!!! We had a very nice evening for being out on a Sunday nigh! Definitely be back!!“

“My wife and I were in Baltimore for a wedding and stayed the night. The next morning we found Ale Mary's for brunch, and it was incredible. The prices are so reasonable, the food was delicious and the service was so friendly. We live in Northern Virginia but this place is seriously worth the trip up 95.“

“Great food and great atmosphere. Thanks for tipping me off to this place Jtw Woods. I’ll return“

“Best Burger I've ever had!“

“Home of Ravens Roost 138.“

“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.“

“I had the soup. My friends had other dishes. We love going around town to the hidden golden nuggets of Baltimore. The food excellent!
The place is a treasure. TEACHERS, This place is a great meet up location. Great seating make this place a great gathering or meeting place.
As. Notary this is closer than some major fast foods to meet with customers for their signings.“

“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!“

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

“Excellent food at reasonable prices, Friendly staff.“

“We walked in from the smell of the food, as soon as we walked in it was two servers both was talking to customers, but it seems like right off we ignored Alex J. by coming in and stopping her conversation. Alex J took our order with rudeness and first gesture our food to go, She took a tip without either asking if we wanted change back and went back to her conversation, our food came out in a great time frame. We said Thank you, have a good night, Alex J. never said nothing back. Overall How Alex acted very unprofessional, the food was great!“

“Real food the way Baltimoreans like it. Regular white sandwich bread for soft crabs Fried Liver and onions with bacon also. Rare Prime Rib. Just good home cooked food.They miss on a few items but,I've been going for 45 years and it doesn't disappoint. Service is friendly and excellent. Hope it never changes.“

“I had an emotionlly weird day until Aryel and D gave me the best service! They work well together, as a previous bartender/waitress myself you can spot top tier chemistry! The teamwork makes the dream“

“For a bar on the outside it’s not like a looker but don’t let that steer you away. They have a small food menu but they do it Good. I got chicken tenders and a chicken cheesesteak both were yummy. If you want a cool afternoon drink and lunch with a chill vibe this is the spot. The bar tender Sharon was very polite and sweet and the cook even came out to deliver the food to us. I would highly recommend this bar for budget food and drink for a good buck👍🤟“

“Great place to have dinner with friends“

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

“Cool place, brews were good and the appetizer was delicious. Definitely worth checking it out“

“My family went to Hightopps tonight for a small memorial for my uncle. The food was delicious, our waitress Bree was great, the general manager, Kirk, was one of my uncles best friends, thank you for your kindness! I never met the owner but I can tell he is an excellent person. Thank you to all of my uncles friends that cared so much for him & for Hightopps wonderful service and kindness as well. I give this place a 10 out of 10. It reminds me a little like Seacrets in OC. Love the atmosphere and outside is so pretty.“

“Nice Little Neighborhood Cozy Spot To Get Your Drink On. They Do Not Serve Food On The Regular Except On Taco Tuesdays But Bartenders Are Friendly And The Beer Ice Cold. It's A Little Small Inside So I Suggest You Come Early If You Want A Seat.“

“friendly people great ac AND THE KARAOKE SINGERS AND SOUND ARE GREAT good lite food menu the backend salmon salad is to die for wings off the chain pool table on deck take the experience“

“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 🫵🚗💨“

“Almost a 5 star rating. very close. The staff was fun an attentive, the atmosphere is the type of dive bar I appreciate. And the food was good, but not great.

The fried pickle BLT was good an I would order it again, but this is crab territory, the crab dip should have been better. I would NOT order that again.

But, the pickle BLT ... 100% ... order it.“

“This is my second time eating at Howard's the first time was through DoorDash and no complaints at all! They listened to special requests even though DoorDash does not allow that on the app, when I called they were very accommodating and removed items from the burritos. We just got our second order and we picked it up. The food was ready at the exact time they said it would be and just as good as the last time we ordered!!“
