    Spiced mule
    Sheneil B.

    Would definitely go again! I have ordered delivery before but in-person was better. Started out with HH (until 7p) on a Friday night and enjoyed some spiced mules at the bar. There are some HH food options too. It was date night for me, so we ordered some plates and settled in upstairs which was quieter, chill, rustic and had cool pics of dogs. The food is delivered to your table. Food was yummy!!! I loved the dry rub ribs and brisket. All the sides were great too, corn bread and pickles were complimentary too. Check em out!!!

    Visited this place for a party on Friday night. They had a buffet with many selections of food to choose from but my favorite was the brisket. It was so tender and flavorful. The drinks were good and pretty strong as well. The service was friendly.

    Was looking for a place near me to host some buds for a bachelor party when I came across Blue Pit in Hampden. It was a great spot with plenty of space for us in their upstairs area. Awesome BBQ and whiskey selection. The staff was incredibly accommodating. If you are looking for a party space near you its definitely a place to check out.

    We had a party here for approximately 30 people and the experience was positive and enjoyable. The owner was very prompt with her replies to my inquiries and very easy to work with. We were able to enjoy the second floor as the event was on a Thursday afternoon and each one of us would just buy our food individually without any sort of cover charge or extra charge for the use of space. It made for a very stress free and chill time. Food wise, I was able to try only 2 items, the Big Dawg and the brisket and I can say I thought they were good! Photos of the place are included in this review as it was the main reason we chose the place. Parking can be very tricky but it's to be expected as it is near the city. The staff who helped us were all so friendly and helpful! Check out their newly renovated patio area, too

    Low quality picture for a high quality restaurant. Got this for the first time because the restaurant was supporting the recent Keswick fires in Hampden in Baltimore. Being able to support this restaurant in their support efforts makes the food even more incredible and definitely a place worth checking out in the future!

    I'm a girl who loves her BBQ and Blue Pit always comes through when I'm looking for somewhere great yet chill to eat! The staff and environment is always so welcoming, helpful and attentive. I recently discovered their happy hour and I highly recommend it. They have specials on their sliders, beers and some signature cocktails. Now that the weather is warming up I also enjoy sitting out on their back patio which offers communal style dining. I love this style dining because it allows you to hopefully meet someone new. If communal style isn't for you they have great spaces indoors as well. Blue Pitt is child and pet friendly. I love how much they give back to the community with their support of BARCS. I love sharing a platter and some sides. My personal favs are the brisket, chicken, pulled anything lol , beans, and potato salad! I love getting their signature blood orange mule as well! I highly recommend if you are looking for a great weekend lunch spot, place to meet friends or just because!

    This review is strictly for the bar and drinks..... Parking is madness so be sure to allow time to find street parking. Walk or Uber here. Ample seating in the bar area. I ordered two drinks . Those slushy drinks are strong if you like a bang for your buck it was absolutely delicious. Prices are good. Bartenders were attentive and very friendly.

    Great food and excellent cocktails! We tried the brisket and chicken and both were cooked perfectly and full of flavor. We also tried the potato salad, both coleslaws, and baked beans which all complemented the meats very well. The cocktails are a huge reason we will be back soon! Very interesting combinations, our favorites probably being rocket power and hat trick. Definitely talented and friendly bartenders who are passionate about creating fun, new concoctions! Can't wait to try more!

    It's been a while since I've visited Blue Pit but I had a gift card and an empty fridge so the stars aligned for another visit. Since I now eat gluten free, my normal option of the pulled chicken sandwich wasn't going to cut it - they don't have GF rolls. I did appreciate that GF options were clearly marked on the menu though. I got the one meat platter with chicken thighs, potato salad, and Chesapeake pickleback slaw and extra pickles instead of cornbread. It came out to $20, pretty pricey for one person if you ask me. I placed the order by phone and the staff member was really friendly and double checked that all the sauces were gluten free (thank youuuu). The bag was HEAVY when I picked it up, a good sign. Turns out $20 was a reasonable price for the heaping serving size I received. Four large pieces of chicken and fair portions of the sides. The chicken was good but not as flavorful as the pulled chicken I'm used to getting on the sandwiches. I had plenty of sauce to make up for whatever was lacking in flavor though. I also had plenty of leftovers! Now I want to come back for an Old Fashioned. Cheers!

    Great!! We wanted a…read morenice little brunch before doing some walking around in the neighborhood and stopped into Chuck's as we had heard great things. I can confidently say that everyone that recommended this place was right. I had the Seoul skillet with pork belly, kimchi and mushrooms and wow, was it good! The flavors melted perfectly and it was the epitome of a well balanced breakfast. Service was fine - a bit slow, but they were incredibly busy, so I don't fault them at all for that. One thing I do hate is having to continuously ask for my water to be refilled, and I was left with an empty glass quite often but again, they were swamped so I do understand. Ambience is very interesting here, I don't know that I have ever been to a more eclectic restaurant. The decor is all over the place but it really does fit the vibe so I say this with zero negativity. It's quite tight in the space but that's totally fine. Overall I will 100% be coming back and would recommend anyone else do so.

The Filipino breakfast with rice, longaniza & egg accompanied by a mango slaw. My only complaint is the rice needed way more garlic. Everything else was on point. The second meal was Shakshouka and it was delicious. I'd change nothing. It's an open kitchen with the seating of a somewhat rustic atmosphere. The staff were friendly, attentive and efficient. I'd definitely recommend.
