    This place was great to pregame at. However, if you are looking to order food, be prepared for a lllooooonnnngggg wait! Atmosphere was fun, beverages reasonably priced.

    As a rule, I do not award 5-stars. When I do, the experience was far above peers and expected. This is a working class, beer in plastic cups, paper plates, folding tables and chairs place. It is the real deal for a Baltimore neighborhood pre-game watering hole. Local specialty food is cooked and served in the back alley. The staff is extraordinarily friendly and proud of what they deliver: atmosphere and great local she-crab soup and generous warm sandwiches. You'll know you are in a firehouse where loyal professionals served the neighborhood long before any stadium was built or the waterfront was rebuilt. Tables are family style seating (friendly patrons will sit down with you and make you feel welcome) and the bathroom is kept clean. Oh, and it is a not-for-profit benefiting the widows and children of firefighters.

    Great restaurant. First, I came on a hot day after walking around the Inner Harbor, and my water…read moreglass was never less than half empty, which was immensely appreciated. Service was perfection. The interior has a great dark wood/chandelier, old-school bar vibe and comfortable seating without it being too noisy when packed. There is some signage about the poet himself. We started of with the "cheese dip" which is an interesting way to describe a pretzel appetizer. But boy howdy, the cheese dip was enormous, which complemented the salty, buttery pretzels perfectly. The stuffed lamb was pretty reasonably priced and came with spinach and potatoes. Both that and the strip steak were a bit heavy on the sauce though, but otherwise, great dishes. Don't forget to swing by the bathroom. I just really like the posters in the hallway. The bathrooms were nice though. Overall, this is a reasonably-priced, inviting atmosphere, and tasty good. Great spot for the area.

The food options are limited but they do have a good variety of options. They were able to accommodate a large party with short notice. Everything was made fresh. It's a nice pub restaurant mix. Also great for professional or casual dining. The service was fast and reliable.

    Wow 2 Baltimore City reviews in a row! Representing 2nd quarter of 2022 is Pratt Street Ale House…read more I had been here twice, 2016 & 2022. Both times I got crab cake. It was a solid crab cake, but there are some better options especially around Annapolis & Anne Arundel County in general, but this is conveniently located near the Hippodrome Theater & Camden Yard, where I went afterward in the respective years. It's a large restaurant and been a staple in downtown Baltimore a long time. I briefly dated a woman in Winter 2011-12, but she ended up becoming a friend. In April 2016, I won tickets to Kevin James at Hippodrome Theater. Although I tried to get a date for this, since that didn't pan out, I ended up going with a friend. My friend said I could pick whatever dinner I wanted on her since I got the tickets, drove us from her apartment in Hyattsville (I lived in Arlington, VA at the time; so a lot of driving that day), & ended up paying for the parking. I said that I wanted crab cakes and settled on Pratt Street House. With the parking costs, gas, & wear/tear, may have ended up a little behind, but I will say I enjoyed the crab cake. Like my prior review, I was still briefly dating the same woman in Spring 2022. I've lived in Anne Arundel County, and she lived in Cockeysville; so Baltimore City ended up being a good in between location. She wanted us to go to an O's game, which I wanted to too. Incidentally, this May 2022 Pratt Street Ale House & O's game was our last date. I found something to be annoying on our 2nd to last date and was reluctant to go on another date. But she was pushing for us going to O's game, which I like going to anyway. Opposite of 2016 situation, she bought our O's tickets, so I bought our Pratt Street Alehouse lunch on that Sunday. Although we had a better time than the 2nd to last date, I was still cognizant of that date, and we fizzled out. In summary, some pretty good memories & solid crab cakes. Also, servers were nice as I recall too.

We stopped by around 5 PM on a Saturday before an Orioles game, so as expected, the place was extremely busy and had a lively pregame atmosphere. The beers were good, but unfortunately, the food is what brought my rating down to three stars. The fries tasted a little stale, and I ordered the smash burger (forgot to grab a picture), which was pretty average. I've definitely had much better smash burgers elsewhere. We also tried the chicken fingers, which were very basic and reminded me of typical ballpark food, not bad, but nothing memorable or something I'd crave again. Overall, Pratt Street Ale House is a solid spot for drinks and the pregame atmosphere, especially if you're heading to an Orioles game. However, based on the food we tried, I probably wouldn't come back specifically to eat. I'd recommend it more as a pregame drinks spot than a dining destination.
