Baseball season is almost here and the Orioles are the top sporting attraction in Baltimore this season as they look to battle for the American League East title and make a deep playoff run.
But while the O’s have been must-see TV for the past few years, it’s become harder to watch them recently with price hikes and many people cutting the cords that include MASN, the network that shows almost every single Orioles game.
So for the die-hard or casual fan that wants to catch a game, where are some spots where you can sit back, get something to eat and drink, and enjoy some Orioles baseball?
Pickels Pub – 520 Washington Blvd., Baltimore, MD 21230
Located across the street from Camden Yards, Pickles offers the closest thing to the ballpark atmosphere you’ll get without being in the stadium and is a popular spot for people to eat and drink before and after games. With outdoor space, music, burgers, sandwiches, craft beers and more, Pickles is a staple of the local sports scene.
Mother’s Grille – 2450 Broad Ave., Timonium, MD 21093
Mother’s Grille is a restaurant that places a strong emphasis on a sports viewing experience with main restaurant seating with views of televisions and a covered patio that includes a 110” TV wall.
Customers can choose from their list of cocktails and beers and a menu full of American restaurant classics that they say are 95% made from scratch. Enjoy the Orioles games here whenever they play.
The Timonium location is now the only available location in Baltimore City/County after the original location in Federal Hill closed at the end of January.
The Greene Turtle Sports Bar & Grill – Multiple Locations
The Greene Turtle is a chain sports bar that originated in Maryland and has since spread throughout the state and into neighboring states along the East Coast. The bar is known for its classic sports bar menu with a Maryland flair and having a range of drinks available in cans or cocktails made from the bar.
Easy to get to with its plethora of locations across multiple Maryland counties, the Greene Turtle is a spot for anyone from the most casual of Oriole fans to the die-hards looking to grab a bite.
The Judge’s Bench – 8385 Main St., Ellicott City, MD 21043
A small local spot in Old Ellicott City, The Judge’s Bench offers a high-end drinking experience with 19 rotating drafts, over 500 single-malt whiskeys, over 160 bourbons and ryes, and a selection of craft beers.
The pub has a fun decorative theme and gives a more intimate feeling than some other larger sports bars, but still always has a game on the screen in view of the tables for a nice casual viewing experience.
The pub serves a small menu of fairly standard bar foods and has a wine and beer menu for whatever suits your taste.
