    This is in a really interesting old building by the river in Old Ellicott City/Oella. The hamburger was great, as was the cucumber salad. The staff was attentive, friendly, and helpful. I parked in the public parking lot just past the restaurant. There was a good crowd, and live music (I went on a Saturday).

    Decent normal American bar type food. The menu isn’t super large which is good, mostly sandwiches/burgers/wraps. They don’t serve main meals or pasta until 4pm.
    The crab soup did have a lot of tasty crab, however the soup itself was like gloop. It was so thick and had no taste which was so weird. Hardly even salt and pepper. Way too thick even for a chowder. Burger was pretty good taste, a little charred, ordered medium but got more like medium well. Steak and cheese also was okay, better than burger as it had nicely cooked onions and mushrooms in it. The fries were good when hot - but they seemed like really cheap crinkly fries. After they got even a little cold they tasted so awkward and not good.
    Server was nice.
    The main reason I’m giving low stars is cleanliness. The whole place felt dirty, which in turn made me feel like the food was dirty. The ceiling has caked on dust. I guess it’s an old building but that doesn’t mean it should be dirty. Bathrooms needed cleaned as well. Windows are smudged everywhere. Menus were dirty which gave a horrible first impression.

    Very cozy pub interior. Traditional American breakfast. Menu small but completely adequate. Service was phenomenal. Food came out quickly after order. The waitress was very attentive and checked in regularly. The other wait staff was also attentive. Prices were reasonable. I got the three egg platter with a scrapple, rye toast and home fries. Scrapple was perfectly cooked, crispy on the outside soft interior with a slight thickness. The home fries were fresh and good. The type was soft not crispy. Side order of bacon was a hefty portion and was somewhat limp but crispy.

    Will definitely return.

    Amazing food and great customer service ! Loved the pastas so much and usually am not a pasta gal!

    The drinks were so cute, my bartender even added whipped cream to my espresso martini 🤩🍸

    Very good bacon and you get a lot of it! There is a separate breakfast and lunch menu. Pretty good food overall. Service can be slightly slow but not terrible. It’s a unique vintage-feeling atmosphere.
    Good luck parking though.
