    - The Greek Goddess
    Sophie B.

    Snake Hill is a fun joint with overall tasty food and a good selection of drinks. That said, I do think it's a bit pricey for what it is and there's a few things they could work on. 1) The sausage sandwiches, like the Greek Goddess pictured, don't come with any sort of side. I think a nice, complimentary side option of something even as simple as chips would really elevate their menu. (That said, the sausages are delicious. My friend got the Greek goddess and said it was amazing, same with the crab mac and cheese dog that I forget the name of) 2) I am gluten free. At this point, I know I can't expect every restaurant to cater to me... but I really do think this place would benefit from a GF bun option for their sausages. They label what sausage are gluten free, which is great, but I even told them no bun and they forgot to do that. (They offered to remake it and were very nice - so the service was not an issue regarding that.) I do just think that it could use a gluten-free option! 3) The inside is a bit cramped so I'd like to see if they could somehow elevate their outdoor space. As of now it's just right next to an alley that isn't super aesthetically pleasing. All said, I'm willing to try again but I think long term, Snake Hill could consider some things to make it tasty & a good experience for everyone!

    - Kale Caesar Salad

    Unique gourmet glizzies!! My friends and I stopped by for lunch on a sunny Sunday and sat outside at one of the picnic tables. Immediate good vibes from this place. We ordered an assortment of different sausages which all came out hot and delicious on toasted brioche buns. Note: The hot peppers you can add on top don't play around! They spicy. We really enjoyed trying different and unique flavors of sausage. Duck, lamb, pork, rabbit rattlesnake! Kale Caesar salad was also great and had the perfect amount of dressing. Service was great and friendly.

    We ate at the bar. The bartender was attentive and helpful as we were navigating the menu. I went with the rabbit alligator sausage which was a pleasant treat. It was not gamey at all. Can't wait to come back.

    Overall pretty good, just a few atmosphere things I'd recommend. Came on a Friday around 7pm. It is a VERY small place, suggest just coming in a group of 2, but max 4. There are some outdoor tables too. You can sit at the bar or a table but have to order at the bar. Very funky menu with lots of unique sausages so suggest trying a few! I got the Natty Boh sausage w/ crab Mac. It was tasty and filling, came on a brioche bun which was nice. But at $16, I would've appreciated some kind of side, maybe even a pickle. The truffle fries are great but they could've been a little crispier. As for seating, it's all bar height with no backs. Hard to sit for a long time. The tables also have no hooks for purses or jackets, an easy add that would give a little more space on the already small tables. All in all, it's good food, not a great value but tasty. Atmosphere could use a little sprucing but I would recommend it!

    We love Snake Hill! Particularly the Frosé we get it all the time and the service is great as well!!

    Snake Hill is always a good time! Great for a casual drink with friends-- the frizzy frosé is a staple with my friend group. The people are friendly and the prices aren't too bad, which is what I'm always looking for.

    - Vegan Mexican Chipotle
    Brenda S.

    Snake Hill is an absolute gem in Highlandtown! I loved living a few blocks from it and still come back to the area just for it. The vegan hot dogs are spectacular and packed with flavor. The Mac and cheese is very rich and yummy. The drinks are always amazing, they even made me a hot toddy one day when I needed a little congestion cleared up. The frozen drinks are always amazing as well. The bartenders are always super sweet. Quick side story, they once saw me crying as I was trying to leave a bad first date and they didn't even make me pay for my drink after I insisted. They even offered to walk me home (a kind patron ended up helping out!) But this is exactly what a neighborhood spot should be like! The vibes are always so fun here and there's no place quite like it!

    Was looking for a new to me spot - reviews fit the bill of bar food and good beer list. All an understatement. Killer ambience. Great service from bartender. Welcoming neighborhood vibes. Great draft and can list. Had the shore tots and dipasquale - both delicious. Also the best frozen rose I've ever had in my life! Will be back!

    Delicious food, and the wildest art throughout. Great service also. We immediately had someone notice we came in and hand us a memo and we weren't at the bar. I'm not used to such good service in some of my DC, I'll be honest....Baltimore won that night.

    Food: Hot from the grill. The Buns on the sausage is soggy and will break apart but the meat, cooked to perfection. The lamb rosemary sausage was my favorite. The rosemary isn't too heavy and the lamb is perfect. The rabbit rattlesnake could have more favors to stand out but, it was well cooked and still very good. The truffle rings can be smelled from outside the bar. The amount of oil is a bit much for my taste. Shake and let sit maybe. They were good just a little too much oil for my liking. Overall, many food options and many unique ones at that. Great pricing and good bang for the buck at a bar. Good job! The DiPasquale isn't a 'real DiPasquale' as they 'used to' use DiPasquale for the meats however, now do not so, I'm not sure what makes it the classic 'DiPasquale'. If you're going to use the name, use the product! Service: Dean was great. Energetic, attentive and knows his drinks. Suggested great food options and made a great old fashioned without the bacon (thank you) Ambiance: Great ambiance, clean, and collective. The natural wood and metal with the historic accents makes this place have a unique presentation. I'd say this is a dive bar but, it doesn't quite qualify. There's no musty old mop water smell with old carpet, it's the total opposite. Not that it's bad, it's just hard to give this place a 'clique' which is even better, it's unique to its own and that's what makes it so great. Handling/Standards: Clean, well kept and no sticky bar at least at 6pm on a Wednesday. Bathrooms are clean and the place is well kept. I can't speak to the kitchen as you don't see much but the bar staff was sanitary and well put together grooming standards for not having uniforms.

    TLDR: Eccentric sausages and a great beer selection. The perfect neighborhood hangout. Vibe: 4/5. Located in Highlandtown, Snake Hill is the epitome of the neighborhood hangout. Setup out of a row home, the bar is relatively small, with a 10 seater bar at the front and 2 long community high top tables in the rear. During peak hours, the small space could prove to be problematic, especially if coming with a large group. During warmer months, they have a few picnic tables available surrounding the building. The kitchen is located out in the open behind the bar so the wonderful smells of freshly grilled meat tubes fills the bar. Service: 5/5. The staff at Snake Hill were great from start to finish. There are no waiters at the bar, so when you are ready to order, you must go to any of the friendly bartenders to place your order. If ordering food, they utilize vibrating pagers to alert you when your order is ready for pickup at the bar. This system works great, especially if sitting outside. During our visit, we sat at the communal tables in the back and had no problems getting our beers and food in record time. Food: 5/5. Some of the best, most creative sausage blends in Baltimore. They are most famous for their pho dog, which is a blend of pork, Thai basil, star anise and Sriracha that accurately mimics the flavor profile of a bowl of pho. They also have exotic meat sausages for the more adventurous eaters, such as ghost pepper alligator and rabbit rattlesnake. One thing I definitely appreciate about Snake Hill is their social media presence, as they regularly announce special menu items. Overall, I highly recommend swinging by Snake Hill for a fresh glizzy and a beer, or 3!

    I enjoyed my visit here this weekend! I arrived around 1pm on Saturday and it was not crowded - there was plenty of indoor space, which was good because it is hot out! I had a lot of trouble deciding what to get - everything sounded good. The menu was more extensive than what they had on their website, too. I ended up with the Pho Real sandwich, which was good. I think I would try something else next time because it was dominated by hoisin sauce, which I like but I felt it drowned out the other flavors a bit. But the sausage itself had a good flavor and I enjoyed it. The fried green beans were my favorite. I would go back just for those! Get the dipping sauce (I think it was Sriracha mayo maybe?) Lots of other things looked good so i would like to come back and try others!

    Snake Hill is a homey neighborhood bar in Highlandtown. I love the eclectic feel of the bar area and the creative drinks. They seriously have some awesome cocktail concoctions that always seem to be changing and elevating. They usually have weekly specials for food and drinks so you can try something new every time. Stand outs on the menu include their wings, their mac n cheese, and of course, the sausage. Now, I'm not really a sausage kinda gal. I don't really eat red meat so it's never been my thing. However, Snake Hill grill has a variety of chicken, veggie, and "exotic" sausages so that even the most sausage averse person can probably find something they like. The sausage comes on a brioche bun and you get two free toppings. Plus, they have plenty of fun mustard to dress up your dog with. I chose the mango and habanero chicken sausage with hots and sauerkraut and dressed it up with old bay mustard and the bourbon mustard. Delish! Note: I got it without the bun since I stay away from gluten however, the mango habanero sausage is not GF because of the breadcrumbs. There are clearly marked GF sausage options on the menu though! My friend got the mac and cheese and we shared an order of small fries which came with a spicy mayo. My friend added crab to his mac and cheese but it honestly just looked like Old Bay was sprinkled on top - no crab meat to be seen... probably not worth the $4 upcharge. The fries were hot and thick cut and the small serving size was still enough to share. The cocktails were the Hi-C special and tasted just like an adult version of Hi-C! Overall, I'd definitely come back for more food and drinks. My only suggestion would be to add a GF bun to the menu so GF folks can enjoy the GF sausages as they are intended to be served. Cheers!

    This was my first time here and it was actually a nice visit! They offer both indoor and outdoor seating. The bar itself is narrow with some bar seating and four tops. If you plan to come with a larger group, they have tables for about 8 towards the back but there are only 2, so call ahead if you can. (not sure if they allow that though) The menu has a good range of different things including some exotic meats. My friend got the alligator hotdog which may have also had rattlesnake ... I opted for the pho real sausage and it was DELICIOUS! The sausage itself along with the toppings, really encompassed the whole Pho experience without the broth, it was pretty impressive. I do wish however, they offered a side with the items or provided an up cost for doing a side item. The kitchen is also visible from where ever you're sitting and you can even see the different sausages in a case right next to the bar. They also have excellent drink options there, we opted for the Nitro White russian cocktail which almost tasted like dessert!! So good! Give them a visit if you're in the area!

So delicious. It was late night and I stayed here about an hour (closed the spot ha) and I was able to enjoy a mini impromptu concert by another patron Ebony, as Kyle was sweet enough to play some of her music. All in all, a perfect end to my evening. High recommendation for Rye. The End.

No bartender in sight, no other patrons, no background noise. For a moment, we genuinely wondered if we were in the right place. The bar is down a flight of stairs, tucked into the basement, and it's notable because it's Fells Point's only and possibly first basement bar, which already gives it serious character points. We waited near the bar for a few minutes, heard nothing, saw no one, and eventually started heading back up the stairs to leave. That's when Steve, the bartender, literally came after usnot in a weird way, but in a very human, "Hey! Sorry about that, I was in the stock room come back in!" way. And honestly? From that moment on, the experience completely flipped. Steve was phenomenal. Friendly, welcoming, deeply knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about the place. He's worked there for 18 years, and once we sat down, he turned the bar into a living history lesson. He shared stories about Fells Point, Baltimore, Edgar Allan Poe, the building itself, and all the ghost stories tied to the space. He also told us about the celebrities who've passed through, including the fun detail that Blake Shelton once sat in the very bar stool I was sitting in and ordered a Bullet bourbon. Naturally, that kind of trivia just adds to the charm. Drink-wise, I ordered an Angry Orchard, and my friend had a single Tito's with cranberry and soda water. Our total was $26.16, which feels pretty standard for Baltimore definitely not cheap, but not shocking either. The bar itself is small, intimate, and packed with atmosphere exposed brick, low ceilings, and that cozy, historic, slightly haunted vibe you hope for in a basement bar. It's also connected to The William Fell Inn hotel through a separate entrance, which makes it feel like a hidden secret rather than a tourist stop. We loved the history, the stories, the ghosts, the setting and especially Steve. Being the only patrons that night was actually a gift, because it let us really soak it all in. That said, we're absolutely planning to come back on a busy night to see how the energy shifts when it's full. If you love historic bars, good storytelling, and places that feel like they've seen things Anchor Bar is a must. ‍
