Recently visited for a friends bday outing…read more While here I had the mini crabcakes and a few drinks. The crabcakes were good. Ample fresh crabmeat in every bite. The sauce had a delightful kick to it. To wash it down I had a glass of Rose and the Nightswimming drink. Both drinks were good. Adequately boozy. The vibe of Bloom is very chill and intimate. The decor is a plush dark velvet. Service was good. I'd definitely visit again.

This dark and moody little spot off the lobby of my hotel was the perfect place to stop for my…read morefirst cocktail in Baltimore and to enjoy a bevvy before heading out for dinner. The vibe here definitely gives 1970s, and the small, intimate space would be the perfect spot for a date night or ladies night. Since I was solo, I sat at the bar and ordered a delish Ocha Kudabai from their newly-released spring cocktail menu. I also had fun talking to the bartender, who was knowledgeable about literally ALL things Baltimore (and made a mean drink as well). Highly recommend not skipping this place if you're staying at (or near) Hotel Ulysses.

Danny DANNY. DANNY! An amazing Bartender/Server here at the…read moreEL BAR. From the time we walked in to when we were about three drinks nice, Danny was EVERYTHING. Attentive, professional, friendly, accomodating, I thought "What great customer service! I've got to tell others about Danny!" He had us try some of the cocktails he's working on and...YES PLEASE to these DELICIOUS DRINKSSSS! We tried several. EL BAR is the new kid on the block and if the service has anything to do with its future, THEY'RE HERE TO STAY! I definitely envy the Pigytown community here in B-More having this gem in their backyard. If you're only passing through, this should be one of the *MUST STOPS* places on your road trip map. I promise. Neighbourhood space that can easily transcend from bar to restaurant to lounge to event space. I'm so feeling EL BAR. Yep, I'm still here. For those of you following my reviews, YOU KNOW, I have a lot of drafts waiting to be published BUT, the ONLY time I'm compelled to review immediately is when a spot rocks! EL BAR! They serve food too. Kitchen closes 9pm during the week so on my next trip I'll be here earlier to try their bar bites. See my pics for further opening hours. The space is shaped in the form of a capital letter "L", not to be confused with their name "EL" Bar. It's simply a sweet coincidence. Apparently they're gonna have space upstairs as well and late spring (April 2025) I'm already envisioning an epic summer time here! 100% recommend! The End.

The first time I was supposed to come here they were unexpected closed and there wasn't a notice or…read moreanything online, so communication lacks. The place looks clean so I'll give them that. Last night I ordered food to go for cinco de mayo because it was so busy. Well if you look at the picture attached, I hate saying this but these were the WORST tacos I've ever had in my life. I paid $25 for this basic chicken chopped with onions and cilantro. I was told from someone that the food was really good...well that wasn't the case. Maybe they were having a bad night, so I'd give them another try at some point but this was a huge disappointment. You'd expect a place called El Bar to have the best tacos for cinco de mayo but I would have been better off going to Taco Bell last night.

The bartenders make artisanal cocktails from scratch ingredients, and with some other obscure liquors they can take you down a journey of dark, broody flavors; light, old-fashioned fruity twists on classics, autism, genuinely peculiar, but delicious inventions. The inside is wonderfully blacked out aside from the candlelight that makes for the perfect after dinner drink on night out with someone special, or presumably talking over a long week at work.

Finally able to try The Backyard in Pigtown. I had no idea this restaurant was across the street…read morefrom the B & O Railroad museum. I found out about The Back Yard from locals who lived in Pigtown when I went to Pickett Brewing. I don't live too far from Pigtown but it was nice to see some restaurants popping up near Hollins Market. We met the bartender, Hailey and the owner, Mike. I can see this is a local bar and restaurant since it sounded like everyone knew each other. We seated ourselves and ordered our food. My significant other had the 7 spicy chili and I had the kielbasa and pretzel. I didn't each lunch so I was pretty hungry. There was so much I wanted to try on the menu. My friends really enjoyed the place and food. We will be back.

By the looks of the bar, you would just think they would serve your regular of the mill pub food. Um, no. This place has the best charcuterie, tinned fish( for my tinned fish lovers). Best beer and wine list by far. Not to mention they have plenty of game boards and this bar is doggie friendly, so you are bound to see all kinds of cute fur babies. During the summer months the alley way patio is dope as well. They also have awesome weekly specials. The menu is pretty extensive really nice sandwiches and delicious salads. Their soft pretzel with hot kielbasa is a fave here. It also comes with mini pickles and different types of stone ground mustard . Next time I will try that. This evening I just got a greens and grains bowl with pepper salmon, sooo delicious. They also put confit tomatoes in the salad. A nice touch. I will always come to the Backyard for food and good vibes, especially to unwind after work. So if you are in the Pigtown neighborhood, come to Backyard. You will not be disappointed
