DuClaw Brewing Co. is a brewpub survivor, mainly because it takes as much pride in its food as it does in its specially crafted quaffables. At the same time, DuClaw doesn't forget that an interesting, changeable collection of beers is what sets brewpubs apart from ordinary bars and restaurants. Staple beers like robust Bad Moon Porter, Australian lager Kangaroo Love and pale ale Venom are always available, but you'll have to time your trip to catch seasonal selections like oatmeal stout Alchemy, Oktoberfest favorite Mad Bishop, Scotch ale Twisted Kilt and Belgian white ale Sawtooth.
Food at DuClaw isn't an afterthought. Nachos, pretzel sticks or beer-battered onion rings are perfect for noshing and hoisting. Black Angus burgers and jumbo sandwiches -- like pepperjack chicken, a Cuban, Buffalo chicken panini and Carolina pork barbecue -- accent what's in your mug. Heartier appetites can feast on sesame ginger salmon, pork chops glazed in margarita lime sauce, honey porter chicken and tangy jambalaya. Kids get fish sticks, spaghetti or chicken nuggets, but they'll have to settle for a soda.

Baltimore's "alternative" spot for high-end coffee drinks and good conversation, The Daily Grind serves up plenty of chic and funky ambience with its pricey coffee drinks and luscious munchies. The hipper branch is located in charming, bustling Fells Point, and there's a suburban branch in upscale Roland Park. Pink-haired teen or soccer mom, loyal patrons go out of their way to sip their lattes in a place teeming with local color, happily eschewing the soulless mega-chain competition. rnrnSeveral different joes are brewed each day (decaf and regular, of course) and the fresh pastries are generous and delicious, though not inexpensive. There's also a selection of smoothies. Both locations support Baltimore artists by displaying their work. In good weather, the Fells Point branch has outside tables with a view of the water where you might event catch a glimpse of a tall ship.rnrn -- Melissa Nurczynski

This kick-back-and-drink-up bar is favored for both its nightly music programming and its group-friendly atmosphere. (On weekends, a second bar station opens to handle the crowds.) Keeping it simple with brick walls and wood floors, the Irish pub enhances its comprehensive liquor selection with 28 beers on tap, including Oliver's Irish Red, Tennents of Scotland Yuengling lager and DeGroen's Dunkles beer. For those on a strict budget, Miller Lite drafts are super cheap.

Located in the heart of historic Fells Point (AKA the drinking capital of Maryland), The Brass Monkey Saloon brings you the best that the Maryland music scene has to offer with loaded (and low priced) shows every Thursday, Friday and Saturday night. Plenty of free parking is available on the streets around Fells, so get there early and party late. Come on down and support the scene, have a few drinks, party with us and be able to say "I saw them at the Brass Monkey".

"Sidebar Tavern has a split personality. By afternoon and early evening, this is a tiny, turn- of-the-century carriage house with exposed brick walls and long wooden bar. The seats are dotted with legal eagles working cases out of the nearby courthouse. They're here mainly for happy hour, taking advantage of reduced-price drinks, the regulation pool table and upstairs game room. However, around 8-9PM, the entire scene changes. The decks get cleared and the suits give way to a wilder crowd of kids, 18 and older, who flock here for live music. The bands are mostly punk, hardcore and indie, some with national reputations. Bookings also include the occasional venture into rockabilly and ska."

'Sonar has 3 rooms in the venue, which are run either togetheror separately depending on the night and the event. The MAIN STAGE room holds over one thousand people, and that is where we would tend to do any of the major live shows and special events. The CLUB holds over 300, and the LOUNGE holds 150 with a mellower vibe, leather couches, pool table, and a fully stocked top shelf bar. Familiarizing yourself with how we bill our events will let you know what to expect out of each night.
Sonar does not have any dress codes, so feel free to be yourself, however freaky or conservative that might be. We do reserve the right to insure the ease of which we can see our wristbands or handstamps, which could mean the removal of any excessive jewelry, gloves, etc...
We enforce a policy we call the Sonar code. It basically means that we insist that our place be a place where all are welcome, regardless of race, age, sex, sexual preference, income, etc... We will immediately remove anyone who is making another patron feel unwelcome, but it goes further than that. We do not tolerate obnoxious sexual advances, which means if you hit on someone and they say no, you better let it go. We also do not tolerate overly boisterous behavior, any activity which causes our security to pay too much attention to one person, and we frown upon the use of profanity in a way that annoys other patrons. Basically, be cool, and you'll be fine, act like a jerk, and you'll find yourself in the parking lot!
We do not allow backpacks or large bags of any kind, and naturally, no outside liquor, drinks, or anything which could be construed as a weapon is allowed in the building.
Thanks for patronizing our joint.

"The Rams Head Live! is three venues in one: a concert hall, an Inner Harbor restaurant and a neighborhood brewpub. The main attraction is the concert hall, which has played host to national acts like Hootie and the Blowfish, Cypress Hill and Chris Isaak. Three viewing levels overlook the stage and 26,000-square-feet of arena space, which holds up to 1,800 people. The concert area houses more than 40 video monitors, a backdrop screen, five bars and three food kiosks.
The Tavern, which opened in the winter of 2004, has quickly become a harbor destination. It offers a wide selection of soups, starters and sandwiches. The entrées are reasonably priced, so live a little and try the Boss Steak & Shrimp, Cajun Seafood Alfredo or Rehoboth Cioppino. Eat outside and you get to watch decked out passers-by on their way to the clubs in the Power Plant Live!
The brewpub is a change of pace to most of the Power Plant Live! because it's the only regular bar there. No bands, no DJs -- just good people, good food and cold beer. The bar has a small cast of regulars, but most head here to start their night before heading out to the clubs. A great draw is the happy hour. Monday-Friday from 4-7 p.m. enjoy complimentary food ranging from tacos on Mondays to bratwurst on Thursdays, along with $1.95 drafts and other drink discounts..."

"The open and airy layout ensures 400-plus crowds hear local and national bands unobstructed. A modern lighting system, Meyer sound system, acoustic tiles and a 4-foot-high stage get additional bounce from an elastic "springloaded" dance floor. A 20-foot black bar, heat-activated mood wall and bathrooms with closed-circuit TV add to the bounty. This tiny club's wraparound balcony nearly places you onstage--unless you're at the second-floor bar. "
