The drinks were affordable and strong, which was a definite plus. However, my main issue with The Lodge is the seating situation near the stage. If you're sitting in front, be prepared for people to stand directly in front of you during the drag show. I would've preferred if the drag queens, owner, or even security had stepped in to ask them to move. It was frustrating to have 6-foot-tall, 300-pound women completely block our view--especially after paying $18 per ticket. Also, watch out for this one wild white lady in a black shirt and floral shorts who acts invisible and blocks multiple people. If you ask her politely to move, she'll argue with you and even try to escalate things by telling you to "step outside" like she's about that life. Overall, for our first drag show, we had fun--but if you're going to enjoy the performance, be ready to be annoyed because no one there is enforcing basic courtesy or crowd control. Yes this is coming from the gorgeous black queen with the pink/purple hair

Looking for great house music, cheap drinks, and a small town vibe that still has a piece of metropolitan life? Go to the Lodge. The drag queens are fab and super sweet and all about the jello shots lol. My wife and I went and had a great time though it was sleepier than we remembered it. Fair warning it is located in an area that's very dark at night so be on high alert. If coming from Hagerstown it will be on your left, if Frederick your right.

It probably should be given a new Yelp page, both for the hotel and for the restaurant/bar.

The MBAs with "big big plans" advising the staff (mostly the previous staff) have left, and left the folks behind trying to implement style effects without the tools they really need. So, an early review that it has changed,and we don't know exactly what it will turn into. The murals are gone. Enjoy the pictures on the site while they last. OLD review: I hesitate to recommend this lest you come. it's a secret place, that is chill. happy hour prices are great. so, come, but not too often because I like it quiet. The folks who work here appear to be real people and have helped when I needed it and my employer was not able to. I've come long enought that I thought I should pay them the complement.

It filled up fast, and there was a lively bar crowd, and also an engagement party celebration upstairs. All of the servers were so friendly, and happy to share their favorite dishes and beers, etc. We started with the wings, which were great, and then we had the house salad with salmon and the burger and fries. OK, I did not order the burger and fries, but my boyfriend did, and I ate half the fries on his plate, they were that good! Great, friendly, with generous pours for wine, and just a really friendly, great place with perfect food for a winter day. I wish I could find a place like this in Washington, DC.

There's a lot of potential here, but when your wagyu burger costs more than Le Diplomate's iconic burger in DC, I'm expecting something amazing. Every ingredient was very seasoned on its own, but when combined, the burger was overwhelmingly salty. I could barely taste anything besides salt. The cocktails were also overly sweet, and I regrettably had to send them back a couple of times. That said, our waiter's service was excellent. But this place needs a lot of improvement. Way too salty, too greasy, and overpriced.

This is my first time back in decades. Initial reaction... The night sky was clear and you can see the stars. No light pollution. For star gazing, this was wonderful. However, there are no lights on the parking lot. I had the deep fried burger and haluski. The burger was really good. Nice flavor. The burger does not need any additives such as salt or pepper. For the haluski, the food was for take-out. Haluski needs to be eaten soon after being made... like french fries. My dumb fault for the delay in consumption.
