Are these places so off the beaten path that they don’t even have names? Why are you refusing to name them? Also, how’d you know the person whose question you were originally replying to is from Locust Point?

You could have given me 500 guesses on what your answers to that question would have been and I wouldn’t have gotten either of those. Man those are some strange places to choose to make your flawed point.
A terrible, overpriced fake-upscale bro bar in Fells and a chain business in a dying tourist trap mall. If those can’t survive, what possibly could?!

Well those sure are some great examples!

Reply to Seinfeld fans will appreciate this 🤣 by ajflipz
Based on the purple label and it being a Baltimore company I’m guessing this is more of a Ravens thing (which was indirectly a Seinfeld reference)
Edit: and the literal picture of a football on the label that I missed the first time around

The one in Locust Point regularly goes around (and gets plenty of business) pretty much until the temperatures hit freezing.
Also 8 PM isn’t late. This is a city

Looks like u/Boppizza_800_ came in here with a bunch of comments defending their bad food and ridiculous pricing, then thought better of it and deleted them all. Pretty similar approach to what the new owner seems to be taking on Yelp (arguing with people and acting like their prices are appropriate). Guessing they won't be around much longer. Good riddance.

I had the same thought but ended up finally trying it a few weeks ago after taking our kid to Port Discovery when we were right there. It actually is pretty good and the half pie, while it has kind of a small footprint, is very filling. I'm someone who can eat a ton of pizza and I was good after 2 of the 4 slices.
The pricing really isn't that bad now that I've tried it. Compared to like $18 that most places are charging these days for a 10" thinner crust pizza that I'd finish in one sitting, $25 for good Detroit pizza where I'll have a slice or two leftover really isn't too bad.
The probably is the location is horribly inconvenient to pick up from and if you have it delivered through one of the apps you're paying more like $40. So I probably won't be getting it again for quite a while but not because I didn't enjoy it.

They were always very expensive even when I was regularly going out in Fells 10+ years ago. Not this expensive, but it was like $30 back in 2011 if you got a few decent toppings. I'm sure it's the fact that they've always been expensive as shit, combined with inflation, combined with desperation, I guess?
Never quite understood why that place was popular.
EDIT: Holy shit a large meat lovers is $70 and 8 buffalo wings are $30

Yeah, it’s worth checking out. The areas you hit from are elevated so the good thing is that even if you really struggle and top the ball (meaning hit the top of the ball and fail to get it in the air, which most beginners tend to do), it doesn’t just go like 10 feet, it will still go a decent distance and potentially make it into some of the closer targets. So you don’t really need to be able to consistently hit good golf shots to be able to participate. And you can set up a bunch of different games and competitions on the screen so you can specifically aim for the shorter targets or whatever you want to do.

It’s basically just turning golf into a social, bowling alley-like concept. It’s worth doing for non-golfers, it can be pretty fun. It’s also probably going to be an absolute madhouse for the first few months.

Oh....you're thinking as an employee. That makes way more sense now. Sorry about that.
You'd probably just want to get in touch with local breweries then. We have quite a few. Some serve liquor too, but most don't. I can't think of bars off the top of my head that serve no liquor at all.

Does it have to be beer only? Can't you just not order the non beer things if you don't want to?
The best beer selection in Baltimore is Max's. Wiley Gunthers in LP is another good one, they get some decently hard to get stuff. Another weirder suggestion is to just go to Lighthouse Liquors in Canton, they have an unbelievable beer selection and they have a little bar where many of their cans are available as singles for in-house consumption. All these places have liquor/wine, but you just, you know, not order it.

Just do it. Nobody will care unless you're using power tools out there at 3 AM or something. The city barely enforces "real" laws; I don't think non-permitted small volume musical instrument repair is going to be high on their priority list (if it's even against the law at all).

Which has nothing to do with why you didn’t answer their question in the first place. Now, how about those examples
