That made the environment interesting to say to the least. Plenty of seating for it to be a bar which was refreshing for Baltimore. Service was so so. It took quite a bit to get the bartender's attention but they were doing a lot so I get it. Food was good. The wings had great flavor but a few of my wings were not wings. They were just chicken balls with bones. Seeing those kind of turned me off and I didn't want eat anymore. So essentially, I left 4 wings on the plate because of how they looked. We also ordered crab dip. That was fantastic! The pita bread they used was so good! Warm with a slight crisp to it. Overall it was a bar, so I wasn't expecting much. I will definitely be going back for the other events the have during the week for something to do this winter.

It's that intimate. This gem in Baltimore serves up live music with cozy seating and down-to-earth prices. The only catch? There's a flight of stairs, so it's not ideal for those who need accessible entry. But if you can make it up, it's worth every step. Baltimore show up, show love, and support your business.

There are no fancy drinks here, but you are in the heart of art Mecca of Baltimore, Station North right across from the Charles Theatre. It is a very special place. There's an interior red hue that just glows over the entire bar and there's a really cool seat which is a nook and you're basically kind of secluded from the rest of the group. I always come here pretty late at night and one time I trjed to come and and they were closed for a vacation, this is a quintessential cigarette smoking (not inside) bar. Like I said, there's nothing really special in terms of the drinks. They have all of your classic dive bar favorites. The last time I was here I took a shot of Fernette, but the team here is hipster friendly so sometimes good service other times fine. Iconic Baltimore Bar. They also have fun things on the TVs.

I came once before for a show and I had a great time! But…read morerecently I had a bad experience that left me feeling dark and empty, like the cycle of the moon was causing everyone around me to radiate negative and hateful energy. The interaction forced me to go home and watch Mr. Bean's holiday to remind me that there is good in the world. I came in at 1:15 which is late but the door was open and there was a DJ in the back playing music and like 7 people at the bar. The bartender was chatting with two people at the bar so I walked up. And the bartender gave me the dirtiest look that made me question if I had known him as a child and did something wrong to him because he looked at me like I was his number one enemy. Then he said "yeahhh we're like ..... getting ready to be done....." and I said "okay is there time for one drink? Or did you already do last call" Then he just kept looking off and said yeah no. We're done. And I said okay! No problem. I was curious what was happening in the back like if it was a DJ or karaoke or what because I hadn't seen the set up before and like I said I like this place for shows. I was just genuinely curious and I was preparing to leave no matter what but like F SAKE can a girl not ask a bartender a question about the establishment??? Again he looked at me like we had ancestral beef, like he had been hating me and my families bloodline for years. And he just kind of ignored me. And said something like "you can't just go back there and hangout" and I said "I know, I was just asking. I thought it might have been karaoke or open mic I didn't know you guys did that here" Then he ignored me. Like I was not trying to hangout and get a drink after he already told me no I was just curious because if there was karaoke I'd like to come back for it!!!! Then the woman he was talking to at the bar turned to me and said "have you ever been to Royal blue? You could go there" And idk how to explain but it was in the most condescending way ever, like you don't belong here or like she was talking to me like I was 5 years old?? Anyway I said okay thanks, I was just curious have a good night. And I left. And I left feeling the anxiety and humiliation in my tummy like I had just been bullied out of the cool kids lunch table. So. Sorry for bothering that bartender by asking 2 questions about the bar that he works at and sorry for whatever crime I apparently committed against you in our first cycles of life that made you absolutely HATE MY GUYS even though I was literally wearing my "please be kind to me" shirt. Now im too humiliated to go back and it was just sinister vibes. Sad.

It's super super divey and oddly really long. You can tell it's a good music scene and dance space because there was a DJ and he was trying out a lot of different things so we had the dance for all to ourselves. We also found some random Halloween decoration that we ended up dancing with. I guess there's food here because Yelp is offering it to me as an option to review, but I have never eaten here. The drinks are all well and you should not expect a drink anything faster than a beer or a well drink. I really liked how empty it was and the music was really made for us. I had a great time and I would definitely stop by again. It also feels like one of those places that's a fever dream.

Small place, but it was not overly crowded. Several tvs and a good amount of seats. I will return. One negative thing... lack of A/C.

Maryland Deathfest is the high point of my year. Four days of heavy metal (grind, death,…read morethrash..the heavier, the better), booze, friends, and loading up on awesome merch. Typically the first day starts around 5ish and goes til 2 am, the second starting a bit earlier and the weekend being an all day event. I love perusing the amazing merch tents and finding band shirts that I could only dream about (or, I suppose, find online). I've been going to MDF for five years now and it is THE metal fest in America. In fact, it is one of the few fests in the US to draw people from all over the world (both bands and spectators). They've had their bumps in the road as the fest has grown over the years including venue and security issues but I feel that for the most part that has been resolved. Sure, drink prices can be high (like this year water prices kept going up every day. Weird) but for a festival they have a nice diverse line up of drink and food choices (I recommend the bbq and the tacos). The frozen drink stand offered some delicious and refreshing daiquiris and margaritas that were worth the high price in order to cool down. So metal heads, unite. Eat, drink and get crazy. You won't find another metal festival like it in the states. I've seen some of my favorite bands here and have really developed a love for Baltimore in the process. This city doesn't get enough credit sometimes. They are more than gracious hosts. Oh, and don't forget your sunscreen. Most of your day will be spent at the Edison lot in the blazing sun which is a parking lot turned in to a venue. The other two venues included in fest are the Soundstage which is a nice smaller venue and Ramshead Live!. Ramshead is a very nice larger venue with a nice craft beer line up. You will learn to develop a nice way to balance water, caffeine and alcohol intake after a few years. Or end up being one of the swaggering drunk zombies or people sleeping on the asphalt. haha. So, if you are a metal head, I highly recommend you start making the yearly pilgrimage. It is well worth the money, exhaustion and sunburn to see some of the best metal acts in the world, stateside.

This bar is inside the Hotel Ulysses, once entering the lobby, it's up the stairs and on the right. The dimly lit, mirror covered walls, and plush velvet seating adds to the upscale vibes. We were quickly attended to by a server and placed an order for drinks. My mom got a drink that included something called shrub (never heard of this before), but the server warned us it is a bit vinager-y and different, but that was ok for us. I ordered the Ocha Kudasai and my mom got the Zahara. The Kudasai was like a lychee green tea drink, it was light, slightly sweet, and delicious. The Zahara was different (as promised), but actually delectable. It had a flavor that I had never had in a drink before, but in a pleasant way. If you're an adventurous drinker, definitely try the Zahara! Love the vibes here, I will definitely be back.

Highly recommend, especially if you're staying nearby!
