I love coming to OTP! I enjoy coming here every few months and honestly if it were closer to me I…read morewould go more often. It's located in St. Mary's in the quaint scenic town of Leonardtown. OTP has their own parking lot and there's also lots of street parking. The fills up fast on the weekends but there's plenty of seating in the main dining area, a separate dining area, and covered outdoor seating as well. I've loved almost everything I've tried. Last night I ordered the chicken tenders, a simple win . The bbq flatbread is definitely one of my favorites and highly recommended. The chicken pesto sandwich is also A1, and a great portion size. The bar tenders are always friendly and service is always great. I have never had a bad experience here. Great local spot and definitely another hidden gem of Southern Maryland. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed. Bonus tips: The seasonal desserts never disappoint! Great for watching big games/sporting events ‍‍ Date night friendly. The town is "walkable" and situated near other local eateries, bars, coffe shops, and a waterfront area.

I'm not sure Yelp will give me enough space to really explain how great this place is, on so many…read moredifferent levels. Let's start with the beer selection -- out of this world. Verified Untappd venue (iykyk), with what seems like endless taps and an even more impressive selection of cans/bottles. Bartenders are pretty damn knowledgeable about the product as well, which as a beer nerd is perfect. The food is fantastic. From appetizers (the fried vegetables are heaven) to entrees, it's the perfect amalgamation of classic bar food and Indian cuisine. Today when I was in I had the Taphouse (Lamb) Burger with fries and a side of their Makhani sauce (Pic attached). If a place has a lamb burger it's my immediate go to every time, and I have to say Taphouse has the best I've ever had. The lamb was cooked and seasoned perfectly, the vegetables were fresh, and that feta is that perfect accompaniment to round it off. The Makhani sauce is just good on everything. Could drink it. Not kidding. The venue offers a welcoming outdoor area and a semi-private indoor space perfect for events. I've booked Taphouse for both corporate and personal gatherings, and it's the easiest, most reliable spot in the County for hosting by far. Beyond the food and drink, Taphouse, and especially Sunny (the owner) are one of the most community engaged businesses in Southern Maryland. They have put on countless events supporting all types of local organizations, and always work with nonprofits when they need anything. Taphouse and Sunny himself really serve as one of the best ambassadors of St. Mary's County, especially since a large portion of the customers are transient. All in all, 100% a must try if in the area. But be warned, if you do, you will be coming back constantly.

Immediately greeted upon entry and chose the dining room and maybe had 3 other couples at the same time. Cole was our server and they were fantastic! Attentive and never let the beer get empty and was willing to suggest substitutions or modifications with ease and expertise! We had the crab dip to start and honestly I'd give it a 3.2/5. Definitely had a crab flavor but it had much more cheese than meat. Wifey ordered the Brussels sprouts and old bay wings as her meal and I went with the prime dip with bacon and duck fat fries. Brussels weren't hoisin like on menu but left dry with a balsamic sauce on the side! Crunchy and flavorful! 4.4/5! Wings were perfectly seasoned and huge! Perfectly crispy and delicious. 4.7/5! As for the Prime Dip! Sooo much cheese. Must have a Green Bay Packer fan in the kitchen or something but hot damn. Prime rib was flavorful. Bacon was a genius addition by yours truly. Would order again. 4.89/5. Would love a seeded hoagie roll with this. Love this old watering hole. Irish Stout was a banger and Rud Light never fails! Will return!! 4.85/5!!!!

Pros:Definitely the best spot in Colonial Beach for live entertainment. The MashUp band is great…read more Cons:The food is mediocre overall. The hostess said she would come find us when a table opened in the main entertainment area, but she never did. The marinated chicken on my salad was tasty, but it was the only good part--the salad itself was very basic, consisting of just lettuce and croutons. The buffalo wings were rubbery and not extra crispy as requested; the server even asked when she delivered them if they were crispy enough, so the request clearly wasn't forgotten. We ordered 10 but could only eat 2, and the rest were thrown away. The hush puppies were just okay, but they were small and dried out easily, needing butter to add both flavor and moisture. Overall:A fun spot for live music and atmosphere, but the food and service miss the mark. Come for the entertainment, not the dining experience.
