Spring has sprung and summer is fastly approaching which means we'll be relishing in all the outdoor and rooftop bars thr city has to offer. Tucked away on a quiet street in Hampden sits Hampden Yards Beer Garden. Bringing all the patio vibes to this little community. If it wasn't for the sounds of the patrons chatting away, you might actually miss Hampden Yards. Which is nice because it's off the beaten path from all the goings on happening on the main street. I loved the kind of garden look they have, and it was great that Hampden Yards has some areas that are covered to keep you out of the sun if you so choose. The drink options were nice, with various beers and some crafted cocktails. Offering a little something for everyone. Hampden Yards sells a few snacks but the Glizzy hot dog stand sits at the opening, providing everyone with a taste of summer in the form of a grilled hot dog. This was my first visit to Hampden Yards Beer Garden and it definitely won't be my last during the summer. read more

Hampden Yards Beer Garden - Cute crafted cocktail - Beer Gardens Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

Hampden Yards is a one of a kind experience. It's a beer garden tucked right off the Avenue in Hampden, across the street from Bluebird and behind the WeWork church. It is a purely outdoor experience, with picnic tables on astroturf where you order drinks from your phone with a QR code. The drinks are a little pricey and the service tends to be slow, but you deal with that for the atmosphere. Like, I ordered a crush 10 minutes ago and am sitting right at the bar, but I'm still waiting. ‍ The downside this season is that they got rid of the lawn games - there used to be foosball and giant connect 4. That is gone, so now it's just a place to chat and drink. However- on the upside Glizzy is now the house food truck/stand. If you've never experienced a Glizzy hotdog (or sliders), run there right now and get some. They are a delight and the Glizzy King himself gives not just dinner, busy also a show. Oh - and they are dog friendly. read more

First time there and it was a nice vibe! Staff was nice and attentive. I came for crabs from Xash Crabs on a Thursday and they did not disappoint. The margarita was nice (I took some ice out so it wouldn't diluted it because it was strong). I got a meat lover pizza from Raffy's and I expected it to be better but it was still pretty good. I do want to try other pizzas from Raffys but for Hampden Yards, its a small selection to choose from. I can't wait to come back! Especially for football season, if they're open. read more

Hampden Yards is a cute little patio beer garden that I would definitely love to come back to with my dog, Chronos. They have plenty of outdoor seating you can order at the bar or scan the QR code at your table and they will bring you your drink right to you. The service is pretty fast and if you need any customization, they are usually kind enough to accommodate if you comment what you want on your order. The lighting makes this place very welcoming. They also have a foosball table, cornhole, and some board/card games as well. Street parking is very limited, however. I got the Hampden Wooder Ice for $10 that comes in cherry, passionfruit or blueberry flavor. I got mine in the blueberry flavor and it came with Blanco rum, orange-flavored rum, lemon, and topped with lemon lime soda. I asked for Prosecco instead of the lemon lime soda, and they did accommodate for that which I thought was very kind of them. They do offer some light bites. They are closed on Mondays and Tuesdays and do not take reservations. Their seating is on a first come first serve basis. In addition to being dog friendly, they are also kid-friendly as well. Their upper deck is covered so when it rains that's the place to be. I will definitely be back with some friends for a good time at Hampden Yards. read more

I had always heard about this spot but never had a chance to stop by until last weekend. I came here for a fundraiser (Pong for Pencils) which was a beer pong tournament raising funds for teachers. The set up is super nice with a large outdoor area full of tables with umbrellas and an upper, covered pavilion with a bar. It was towards the end of their season (since this place is totally outdoors and closes for the winter months) so I was told their selection of drinks was limited. They only had beer at this point in the season and being gluten free, I was hoping to see some ciders or seltzers. The staff was really nice about it though and accommodated me with a grapefruit crush which was delicious. Toni definitely knows how to make a very solid crush! I really liked the vibe here and I'm excited to come back next season to see the place in full swing. read more

Horrendous, disrespectful service. Took over 30 mins for drinks to be ready. Instead of bringing drinks to our table, server comes to our table and tells us to go to the bar and pick up the drinks ourselves. Took nearly 50 mins for a single pizza to be ready. Server brings it over with no plates and then tells us to go to the bar to get plates ourselves. Never coming back here. read more

The pros: super cute patio, drinks that are DRANKIN, supporting local people, sweet and quick waitresses. The cons: not comfortable seating ( you are on wooden benches), the food is really expensive for what you get (but it is tasty), the non alcoholic drinks are 4-5 dollars more expensive that the actual cocktails. If you're wanting to grab a good cocktail after work, this is a great place to do it. But I wouldn't say that this is a place to do anything more than that. I was bummed that the NA options were so much pricier than the alcoholic things. read more

I've been wanting to visit here since it first opened & finally was in the area during their business hours. Seating is open and there weren't many people there besides a reserved party. This place gives backyard party vibes. I ordered the Hampden Wooder Ice drink. Service was quick. Enjoyed this drink and like the ice they use (it's like Chic Fil A ice, for reference) Wish they had some seating with backs. There were only picnic table benches & bar stools. read more

What a great spot for a drink and a meal! It's tucked away so I feel like you might miss it if you were just passing by. I got two aperol spritzes - a perfect summer drink (photo attached - loved the cute aperol spritz cup too). I also got a hot dog with no bun since I'm GF - they were happy to accommodate. Lots of seating, fast service, can't wait to return! read more

Hampden Yards is always a hit!! Our favorite spot to go to in season. Perfect for friends to gather, dog parents to hang out, and kids to run around - a win win for everyone. Easy ordering through QR codes on the table, and your food/drinks are delivered right away. Staff is always friendly! read more

Great addition to the Hampden neighborhood! I came with a friend to check out Hampden Yards pretty close to when they opened, so we were able to get a picnic table. I could definitely see if getting crowded as the evening goes on! I liked the convenient ordering system through the QR code. It makes it super easy if you want to pay separately. They have a decent selection of cans, cocktails, and beer! I tried two different beers that I enjoyed. I've seen great things about their cocktails but have not tried any (yet!). Food-wise we ordered a burger and hot-dog and split it so we could try a little of each. They were both really good! They also come with a bag of chips. I think the food is a tad expensive for what you get. Also, I think they should make it more clear when the kitchen opens. We got to Hampden Yards around 4 and were confused as to why we didn't see the burgers/hotdogs on the QR code menu, but it was because the kitchen opens at 5. They do have other food you can purchase before the kitchen opens (pretzels, charcuterie boards, chips). It's completely possible the kitchen hours are posted somewhere and I just missed it though. Great atmosphere to have a few drinks and laid back food! read more

I usually have visited Hampden Yards post bocce for celebration drinks, so my memories of this venue are fuzzy, yet still very pleasant. I love that it's open air, perfect for spring, summer, and fall. There is ample seating, plenty of shade, and a water mister (black girls beware your hair). They carry excellent craft beers, and just recently I had their frose, which tasted like happiness. Service has been expedient and friendly. read more

Great vibes and service. My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed our time here. The customer service was great and the drinks were excellent. We stopped by for a quick drink before we went to the movies and will definitely return soon. read more

Hampden Yards Beer Garden is a seasonal beer garden in ... you guessed it ... Hampden. I'm giving it four stars for ambiance and location. The location is super convenient, and the outdoor-only seating is great - tons of tables, TVs playing sports, and turf underfoot. They offer a large menu of food and drinks. I'm not usually impressed by their drinks (overly sweet and not too interesting, generally speaking), but I do appreciate that they have food (including a charcuterie box, which I think is such a cute and delicious idea)! The service is good (friendly), but it's an order from a QR code on the table kind of place, so there's less interaction with staff than at other bars. It's seasonal - closed in winter - but they post when they open and close on their Instagram page. Definitely check it out when it's open and the weather is nice. A really fun place to have a drink or hang with friends when the weather is nice! read more

My partner and I grabbed a couple of drinks before going to our dinner reservation and had such an amazing time! Such a great date night spot. There was plenty of seating available! The drinks were great and so was the cute. I love all the details in decor and the layout. It's very inviting! The drinks were great too! I love the games they have available for adults and/or kids. Definitely coming back! read more

Super friendly bartenders, dog friendly, and great vibe! Great for a summer night. We ordered pizza delivery since they don't do food.

I love this addition to the neighborhood! Its such a fun spot to pop in and have a drink and some snacks. I have been a few times since they opened and I always have a great time. I like that its open seating which encourages you to make friends which is always nice. The ordering from your phone and it being brought to your seat is nice, it cuts out having to wait for a check or staff but it also sucks because no one is then checking on your table. I love how they have seemed to master draft cocktails. Usually when places have cocktails on draft they arent well balanced and usually sweet.. These taste like a mixologist created each one. The staff has always been very welcoming and great to me and the space speaks for itself! Get out there and enjoy before the weather completely changes. read more

An amazing outdoor beer garden located in an adorable area called Hampden in Baltimore. While it was hot, the drinks were delicious and very reasonably priced. Great place to go with friends for a few drinks to catch up. Incredibly fast service and air conditioned bathrooms. read more

This past Saturday was my second time at Hampden Yards. I truly enjoy the space and love the location. The drinks are great too. This time I ordered the Eternal Groove and my sister ordered 'The One in the Bag'. We also ordered a pretzel, but it was dry, cold, and bland. The menu here depends on the day, but both times has been very limited. After a couple rounds, we decided to order food from another local small business. We saw others bringing food in and did not see any signs indicating that outside food was prohibited, so I picked up the food and brought it back. As we began eating, a waitress (who seemed to be a lead) came over and told us that we could "not have outside food and would have to put it away or else we would be asked to leave." As I stated previously, we had already seen multiple families eating and finishing their meals from the same restaurant where we ordered. She claimed that she had already mentioned this to those tables (one of which was right next to us) even though she mentioned it AFTER they finished their meals. This left an uneasy feeling so we finished our drinks, ate in the car and decided to go elsewhere for drinks. For the future, a sign could be helpful, especially because many places in the cities that are set up the way Hampden Yards is, welcome ordering outside food. Other than that, the other servers were great and the drinks were delish. read more

New beer garden in the hampden area with outdoor seating with covered umbrellas. Picnic table set up with QR code at each table for easy ordering. Order and they'll bring out your drinks. Lots of beer on draft and cocktail menu as well (drinks are decent but on the sweet side, unfortunately without a server, hard to make alterations). Family friendly and dog friendly with some lawn games. Food: chips, salsa/guacamole, burgers, snacks. There's a food truck making burgers and can get backed up (so beware and order first thing when u get there). Very average food. Feels like your usual backyard BBQ fare. Ambience: relaxed and casual. You often share picnic tables with strangers. Going back likelihood: high, nice casual spot to hang out to begin the night or just to sit outside and enjoy the weather. read more

Cute little beer garden tucked away in Hampden. My coworkers and I came here for an after-work beer/cocktail and it was a great place for all of us. There is a large variety of drink options and the cocktails are super yummy. It was a perfect place to come with a large group because everyone can scan the QR code on their table to order and its no muss, no fuss. I do wish they had some sort of outdoor game like cornhole to play but overall Hampden Yards Beer Garden is a great place for a casual drink. read more

Such a fun spot for summer! I've been hearing a lot about the new hampden yards so I thought I would check it out with a friend! I came on a saturday afternoon, parking was street parking but decently easy to find. When you arrive it's self seating and staff bring out your order to your table (you order through a QR code). It was pretty nice weather so pretty busy, we had to share a table but it ended up being fine. It was all outdoor seating, some of the tables had umbrellas but ours didn't so we ended up moving after our first round so we could get out of the sun. If you move tables and wanna order more drinks make sure to close out your old tab and start a new one so that the staff bring out your order to the right table! They also had a couch option and some games you could play. Ok so on to the drinks we got. My friend and I both tried the Medfield crush, which was quite strong and gin-y but I like gin so I enjoyed it (and i mean good bang for your buck right?). Then I tried the Cushwa beer which was light and refreshing and perfect to sip on in the summer! My friend got an IPA that had pineapple flavoring of some sort in it? Not sure what the name was. But it was delicious. Overall it's a great spot to hang out and drink when the weather is nice! I also believe they have food options although I didn't try any, and idk if they have any indoor seating. The prices are definitely reasonable and good vibes overall so I will be back!! read more

Absolutely love the atmosphere and the beer selection! However had pretty disappointing service. The staff made us feel like a burden and were pretty unpleasant. I'm in the bar industry myself, I always give bartenders benefit of the doubt but they were just out right rude and unfriendly. read more

Very nice spot! Efficient service, nice beer and drink selection, nice crowd. Food was fresh but only fair. Certainly worth a trip.

Worst service I've ever experienced. Rude manager, made the wrong drink twice and then argued about it and forced me to return my drink. Won't be back. read more

Would be a nice place if people controlled their dogs and children. In one visit I had to shield my dog from an unleashed, unattended, uncontrolled doodle and clean up a mess left at the games made by children who's parents left it for everyone else to deal with. Though I guess letting them make a mess is better than letting them continue to scream because they don't want to be at a fucking BAR. Not the chill, relaxing vibe you're likely looking for. Maybe I'll try again one night after bed time because it's really not the establishment's fault. read more

We very much enjoyed the atmosphere. String lights and modern appliances were placed well to create an urban feel that was surrounded by rustic buildings. Beers were very crisp but you could tell the staff was new and inexperienced which is expected with a newly opened establishment. Would try again in the future. read more

A welcome addition to the Hampden bar and restaurant scene. Loved the atmosphere, service was was great, draft and can beer selection was abundant and full bar drinks were on point and mixed to perfection. We had mixed drinks, draft beers, the charcuterie "box" and a burger. All were very good. The charcuterie box was more than enough for three with a nice selection of meats, cheeses, nuts, dried fruit........enough to bring home. We really enjoyed the outdoor seating. Just a fun place to go and relax. Will certainly visit again and again. read more

food is a miss so eat before but they have good drinks and fun games to play like connect four and foosball
