I finished "in the points" this time! It's held in the hall that you get to through the small bar. You get to the bar through a door with the Canteen sign above it off the parking lot. It's a very low-key place, with some VFW memorabilia. As a non-member, I signed in by the door. The decor is old and homey. There's around a dozen seats at the small bar, but i dont recall if there were any tables. There are some kind of lottery or scratch-off ticket machines, and a tv. The bartender keeps things moving, and there's a simple menu, hot dogs, pizza, cheeseburgers, chicken nuggets and fingers, a philly cheese steak, fries, and more. The burger was hot and juicy, and i think it may have been microwaved. Tasted fine. The fries were pretty good and piping hot. The people all seemed friendly and relaxed. If your at all cool, you wont find much for you here, but if you're just a regular person, this seems like a nice place for a quiet drink and some regular food.

My first 5-star fie 2026! The experience here was flawless. We were immediately seated and greeted…read moreby our waiter Will(fantastic by the way), Who throughly went through the menu and specials of the day by memory. You can tell he takes pride in his job and customers. We started with the crab dip which was really good. It came with pita which was a little too salty so I ate the dip with the mini cheddar biscuits they give the table. I got the crab cakes with spinach and whipped potatoes. The dish was 10/10. My friend got the special which was sea bass with rice and a vegetable. Will saw that the piece of fish was a little small so he had the kitchen bring out another piece. That fish didn't stand a chance once It hit the table lol. I was able to take half of my food home(they give you 2 decent size crab cakes). The food tasted even better the next day lol. Service, atmosphere, food all deserve 5 stars. I will be back.....next week

Pros: Great variety of beers on tap hefty pours on the tasting package Regulars come here to hang Plenty of seating Extremely chill...we brought a game and were able to play while we enjoyed our drinks Cons: If you have dietary restrictions you will starve; I have a gluten allergy and could only order the wings as the menu is limited to one brisket sandwich, wings, or pizza. They also did not have gluten free or cauliflower crust Many of there beers on tap are not updated on the menu so unless you inquire with the staff you will not know as I ordered a mead that was not included on the menu This is a self serve place, you go up to order and they bring it out to you I will not go out of my way to visit again as we left hungry and then had to make another stop; however if in the area would return again. if ocmpared to Jailbreak Brewery I would choose jailbreak everytime.

I had an awesome time at an event within venue entitled Rhythm & Rhyme presents A Night of Poetry/Spoken Word on Saturday, March 22 in Odenton. The event was well-organized, and the poets definitely gave thought provoking performances. The snaps, comments, and encouragement from the audience confirmed how messages were resonating with everyone. The event space was warm and inviting. A great atmosphere which made the event even more enjoyable. You do not need to worry about parking spaces because there are many provided with their private parking area. This is a great venue for creative gatherings similar to this and it's available to rent for other functions also. The owners were incredibly personable and gracious, taking the time to make sure everyone felt welcome and comfortable. Their hospitality really added to the overall positive vibe of the evening. I'd definitely recommend Chael The Transformation Space to anyone looking for a great venue or seeking to experience more amazing events like this one. I'll definitely be back!

We couldn't have asked for a better DJ than Scott for our wedding! He did an incredible job taking…read moreour carefully curated playlist and seamlessly incorporating everything we wanted, while also reading the room perfectly and adjusting the music based on how the crowd was responding. The dance floor was packed all night--to the point that we extended the reception an extra hour because it would have been unfair to stop everyone from having such an amazing time! Scott's ability to balance our personal music preferences with songs that kept every guest dancing was truly impressive. He brought such great energy to the night and played a huge part in making our wedding so memorable. We highly recommend Scott for any wedding or event--you will not be disappointed!

Our wedding was a blast thanks to Shawn (DJ Mixxed). From our first meeting with him, we knew that…read morehe would deliver. My wife and I both love soul music, R&B and hip hop and we get kind of annoyed by super pop-py music. But our wedding was a mixed crowd, with older guests that loved old school soul and younger friends that loved pop and anything that equaled a party. In our first meeting, we provided a long list of songs that described our vibe and Shawn said, "Based on what you'd already told me, I would've played these songs anyway." We talked a few weeks before the wedding to discuss the wedding timeline and he requested that we narrow our list to 5 must-plays and he'd do the rest. On the wedding day he definitely delivered. He played slow jam music for dinner, great as background music. For dancing, he mixed songs together perfectly keeping everyone guessing and excited for what song was next, while also packing in as many songs as possible. He played songs that my wife and I love, that we never even thought to put on our original list. We kept thinking, "How did he know to play that song?" And we weren't the only ones. Shawn catered to everyone's interests without sacrificing the mood we desired for the wedding. The guests stayed on the dance floor the ENTIRE night. He also provided sound and mics for the ceremony and generously coordinated ahead of time with our videographer so that he could record the ceremony sound for our wedding video. Ultimately, I can't say enough about how great Shawn was. Music can be the backbone of your wedding day and he achieved a soulful, comfy and classy dinner mood, followed by an awesome, yet family-friendly party on the dance floor. For any occasion, Shawn listens, cares and can deliver based on your preferences. He takes his work seriously and works hard to provide the soundtrack for your day that fits you. I should add that Elite Mixers, was by far, the most affordable DJ we came across.

You are given a bodysuit to cover up along with goggles and gloves so that you don't mess up your clothes. You're led into a room with black light, and away you go! Start creating your work of art! You're given a blank canvas to paint, but you can also get creative on the walls, tables and anything that you can find to paint. When it's all said and done, you box up your canvas to take home. What's more is that there's a Rage Room that you can book -- same facility -- and "Instagram Selfie Rooms." The IG rooms have themes and different props for great photos. Truly a good time!

I've driven past the…read morelocation several times and didn't know it even existed, that is; until I receive the invite for the party. Find a good event space can be quite the feat, so maybe this review will help others make their decision. The venue is located on a busy street in Glen Burnie, not to far from the community college. There is limited parking available on the street in front of the venue, but there is also a free parking garage directly across the street. When you access the venue, you are standing in what would likely be consider a waiting area. A nice sized open space attached to what I would consider a bar, but I am sure he can be used for other purposes. For the party I attended, the open space was used for a photo booth and open bar. the perfect area for your guest to occupy if they main event space is not ready for them. The ballroom itself was indeed very grand! Large, wide-open with high ceiling, the perfect space for a birthday party or even a wedding reception. Very versatile. I did use the facilities while I was there and while they were small, they were clean. The entire venue, in fact; was clean. The few staff members I did encounter during my visit were nice, although the interactions were very brief. All and all, I was very impressed by my visit to The Grand Ballroom and will definitely recommend it to others in the future who are looking for a place to host their next event.
