This is the former Kenwood Tavern that really was only open for a year, but it cemented itself into…read morethe history of bars in Baltimore. I think the ownership is with the current Landlord. I'm not actually sure but the cocktails are good. I think the vibes when I went was off. Granted I did go on a weekday where it was pretty empty. I did really appreciate that they were chips of ice in the cocktail, cause it was a really hot day, so I made sure that the drink stayed really cold and delicious. Water is self service. They shift their menu a lot which I think is really nice for the community. The cocktails are on the pricier side they think they start around 14 or 16 which I think is a little too much for a local neighborhood bar.

The vibes are right and the bartenders were nice and chatty, the only reason this place isnt "my" place and doesn't get 5 stars is because they dont make a very good dirty martini and thats like base level. I asked for it extra dirty and I could barely taste the olive brine, I actually had to have him pour more in front of me lol. Also service was a little slow. So for grabbing a quick drink with the girls sure, but staying as a regular nah.

It's so wonderful to come across genuine people who are funny and kind in this world. Our server and the owner were so fun and so funny and so nice. It truly felt like visiting a friends restaurant. The vibes are homey, almost feels like a library but not quite, very cozy very comfy. Food: Tomato Mozarella, this was my two fav things in one. Tomato and burrata/mozarella, and prosciutto and melon. Delicious. 10/10. Prawns: so good, so flavorful, and I typically am not a shrimp/prawn girl. Skirt Steak: this was such a juicy and moist (sorry) steak. I don't like chimmichurri (cannot spell that omg) but it was good! The fries were also a winner. Moroccan Hen: this felt like a cookout bbq to be honest but in the best way. It's super flavorful, very smoky, and SO juicy. Drinks: watermelon marg, orange espresso cocktail, and I cannot remember the blue drinks name but all delicious. I fear this is my fav espresso martini to date. Dessserts: the Poe's nest and the Ruby & Emerald. Delicious. No notes.

Highlight of my summer restaurant week dinner experiences last month. I went right at 5:00 so…read moreparking was easy and the restaurant was just opening so I was seated right away. The drink menu did not tickle my fancy so I ended up just having water. The restaurant week menu was a good selection of their regular menu items so it was an opportunity to try something that I could get again. I opted for the tuna as an appetizer, the whole branzino as my entree, and the zalabia for dessert. Everything was delicious! I would have liked the tuna to be more chilled; it came out closer to room temp. I have no notes for the bronzino. It was perfectly cooked, I really love the time and orange, the olive tapenade was the right amount of salty and briny, and the accompanying roasted harissa potatoes were fantastic. I guess if I had any critique it would be of the too skinny and woody asparagus. The dessert was something I'd never heard of, something like Mediterranean donuts. I really love the pistachios and the I think pomegranate sauce (it wasn't described on the menu so Im guessing), but the addition of chocolate was completely unnecessary and I'm not just saying that because I don't like chocolate lol. After dinner me and my dining companion went upstairs to the speakeasy for a cocktail. I was hoping they had a different drink menu and they did! This menu was much more interesting to me and I ended up getting a a well-balanced gin cocktail. I just read that they are closing to relocate so I'm hoping that I'll be able to go again soon.

We had a party of 7 and we pretty much had our pick of where to sit. The waitress was talking really fast and low and we kept having to ask her to repeat herself. She never slowed down OR spoke louder. Once she had our drink orders, they didn't take long to come out. I ordered the "AKA" it was tequila based and was pretty good. Everyone was pretty happy with their drinks. This is when the night turned. 4 of the 7 of us wanted to leave and head elsewhere, the waitress made ALL 7 of us pay even though the others wanted to stay and order more. She would not budge on this and seemed pretty nonchalant about it. .. all in all. Glad we found it but won't be back.

Everyone on staff was kind and helpful with setting up pool chairs and taking drink orders. The pool itself was refreshing with a gorgeous view. Sunscreen was provided along with a water station. The carrot ginger crush was delicious and tasted more like a healthy juice than a cocktail! The food was pretty good but nothing special for the price, imo. I wish there were more gluten free options to choose from. I loved the shrimp cocktail and the house-made cocktail sauce it came with. So yummy! The chips with the guac were great and the fries were a large portion. They've become more strict about letting non-guests enjoy the pool so it wasn't too crowded and was a fairly quiet environment, with the exception of some kiddos.

A great potential date spot. When you actually reach the pool, you have a stunning view of the water. The drinks were delicious and strong, and the oysters were great! 4 stars because if you want to use the pool when not a hotel guest, it's $150. I think that's a bit high! However, if you just want to drink by the bar, it's free. Still super worth it for that, but sad you can't use the pool.

The Cannon Room is a small cocktail bar tucked away in the back of The Pendry and is easily one of my favorite places to grab a drink in Fells Point. Only open after 5pm, it makes for a perfect predinner stop, especially if you are a bourbon fan. Their bourbon selection is seriously impressive, with everything from approachable pours to rare bottles that climb well into the triple digits. They also offer curated bourbon flights that change depending on availability, which is a great way to try something new. The decor deserves just as much attention as the drinks. The room is filled with warm wood accents and subtle Baltimore nautical theming that gives the space a really immersive feel. The centerpiece is the historic cannon that was dredged up from the harbor during construction of the hotel and is now displayed beneath the floor as you enter the bar. Service has always been 10/10. The bartenders clearly take pride in the craft of making cocktails and have the bourbon knowledge to back up the impressive bottle collection. Overall, the Cannon Room is a must stop while visiting Baltimore and an especially easy recommendation for bourbon lovers exploring Fells Point.

The best deal is absolutely the Wednesday wing night - they are cheap and delicious. That said, it's getting pretty popular so if you want a table and want the wings quickly, you need to show up on the earlier side. The last time I came, they had to turn some people away. That said, the service is always good. They could maybe use a few more employees on busy days, but they try their best.

If you're looking for a spot that nails the outdoor, waterfront vibe in Baltimore, Raw & Refined in…read moreCanton is a gem. From the moment you step onto the deck bar, you're instantly transported into lush palms, open air, and sweeping views of the marina. It feels more like a coastal retreat than a city restaurant. I went for a DJ set, and basically stood the whole night. But, when you're right over the water, it does not matter. The sunset reflected off the slips, and the gentle lapping of the waves made for a calming background. Cocktails are meticulously crafted, fruity, refreshing, and just the right balance. The menu leans seafood-forward (of course), and everything we tried was well executed. The french fries were the best paired with drinking. Service was warm and friendly, with staff who seemed genuinely invested in making the evening special. All told, Raw & Refined is perfect for a laid-back date night, a celebration by the water, or just a gorgeous place to unwind with good food and drink. Highly recommend checking it out (especially at golden hour).
