Was at a wedding last week in downtown Baltimore for my niece. The wedding party stopped at the owl bar for a few drinks and some really nice h'ors d'oeuvres. Bar food we ordered was very nice, pizza, crab dip, veggies, . . . ....The place also took their Halloween decorations seriously and all the other guest were having a great time. Beers were reasonably priced ~8$ and had a variety of styles and breweries (I think). Nice fun place!!More

Cheese pizza was outstanding and decent bar value at $11. Plus a very good selection of beers on tap. Very enjoyable atmosphere. Good bar service. Good spot!

We meet 11 friends at the Bar. We had an alcove which was the only thing good besides the friends. Very limited menu, food was average or below and wait staff kept disapearing. Definetly not impressed.

We stopped in for a drink just prior to a wedding at the hotel. The building is historic and the bar has a great vibe and energy. Didn't try any food, just drinks. The atmosphere is superb.

My husband and I came across this place by walking to our concert at the Meyerhoff. The Old Fashioned Belvedere sign caught my eye and I wanted to check out the inside. I am so happy we did! We noticed others walking to the back...of the lobby and there it was - The Owl Bar! The place was packed. People eating at tables and drinking at the bar. Luckily, two people were leaving and my husband and I were able to score seats at the bar. The music was a great mix of the 80’s and there was a very cool hipster crowd that night. Great for people watching. I enjoyed watching the bartenders creating their drinks - they sure were busy that night. This spot was a gem and a very nice surprise to our evening walk. I would recommend this bar.More

The maryland crab soup is incredible and should be its own food group. We were here just before Halloween and the decorations were amazing. Actually the bar would be worth a visit any time of year. We will be back, many times.

Our concierge at the Inner Harbour Hotel we were staying, recommended a visit to the Belvedere & the Owl Bar. Getting there was easy, catching the free Purple Bus outside the ‘Gallery’. The Belvedere was once a high class hotel, looking quite French Provincial from...the outside...upstairs, it is now leased & condos. On the ground floor there are around three large function/ballrooms which are gorgeous. Down a small corridor filled with photos of famous people who have frequented the Owl Bar, we turned a corner to a medieval-feeling area & on into the bar. It was quite gorgeous & when we arrived around 11.30am on a Tuesday...quite empty. We enjoyed looking around in peace, taking some snaps, then enjoying a beer. Later we ordered a fantastic Brie & special ham pizza, cooked in a brick pizza over in one corner of the huge room. Then the room began to fill with lunch guests - clearly a popular establishment. The prices were very reasonable compared to Inner Harbour, and the quality was superb. The bathrooms off the main building foyer felt like 5 star luxury with stunning fixtures & fittings. Overall we felt we were walking in the steps of famous people in history...overlooked by the two main Owls, with glowing eyes. Definitely worth visiting, just up from the Peabody Library & Washington monument on the corner of Chase.More
