As a Hampden local, this place is the best local bar . The food is really good too! Everyone is friendly . Don't fear the hipsters . They're people too.
The Mac n cheese is amazing! Be sure to try it with sriracha ! The olive in this dish gives it an extra, delicious kick. The bahn mi is also delicious and the chicken and waffles ! Also, pie , pie , pie .
Get the PB&J dessert ! It's a deep fried peanut butter and jelly sandwich topped with ice cream , whipped cream and caramel . What could be better?
For out-of-towners who may be in doubt about the definition of a hipster , visit here after 9pm (and don’t leave without trying the pumpkin pierogies !) Read more
The Venus salad with chicken is simple and great. Good draft beer selection . The jerk chicken is amazing. Love the Brussels sprouts too!
Beat salad is nice, add the chicken . The small plates are worth it. Brussels sprouts , wings , fried pickles
Baltimore's Best Bars 2012: "The weekday happy hour (5-7 p.m.) serves three “toddler” 8 oz. drafts (of your choice, excluding Resurrection) for $3." http://bsun.md/VpUJMq
The food was great but the service was subpar. I got the Brussels sprouts and the Mac and cheese . The portions are large and filling. The Brussels sprouts were roasted well , a little vinegary.
Great happy hour and atmosphere. Love the veggie sliders too. Brunch is a great deal.
The pho French dip is amazing.
Veggie wimpies , white wine mussels , kimchi pierogies , and beef bulgogi are all amazing. Beet salad is recommended, if you like beets !
Lots of good vegan options . Don't get suckered into the individual drinks, always get a carafe .
I agree with all previous tips recommending the fried pickles . The breading is perfectly flaky and they come with a superb chipotle mayonnaise . But there's only three spears per order, so if you're wi
Great local... but you will loose many many hours here.
The vegan eggplant rice noodle dish is amazing !! Friendly staff
Their gnocchi are the best I've had outside of Italy.
Baltimore bomb!!!! Don't worry about all the drama with berger cookies , its amazing!
Cocktails , fries with blue cheese dip & Pierogis . 👍
You must have the roasted broccoli and fries peanut butter sandwich !
Lots of vegan options , mostly based around tempeh .
The tiny bathroom stalls in the women's bathroom are actually ingenious. You can rest your drunken head on the door of the stall while you pee.
Burger and Boh is a surefire win every time. Fried pickles are a staple. If the falafel wimpies ever make their way back on to the menu, get them! Read more
Questioning what to order? Go directly to the Banh Mi . I found it to be superb with the blackend catfish (rather than pate ) and a salad with house dressing .
I really like this place. Good vibe, good music , perfect lighting .. good times.
Enjoyed the sweet potato gnocchi and the general ambience of the place.
Their sweet and spicy wings are to die for!
Get the wimpies. Got the burger and it was still raw on the inside. Not really in to eating grocery meat that hasn't been cooked, but the cook was able to manage a wimpie.
Agreed that the Brussel sprouts are epic, get the veggie wimpies , for they are mega-epic:), eat and level up!
Dessert first! Order the fried PBJ , but don't be stingy - share it with your table
Sailor Jerry Spiced Hot Ciders are amazing!!
The mac and cheese here is amazing, oh and also, totally saw john waters here.
Be prepared of you order wings rocket fuel style. That being said, they are crazy good.
Pbj delights an excellent albeit decadent and simple dessert
