What players say

love this place, went down to watch a ravens game absolutely great vibe, mike really sets a fun atmosphere. best bar in Baltimore. Edit: 4 years later, and I can say with confidence... this place is one of the rare ones that’s even better than you remember.

★★★★★ Simon, Mar 2025

Benders is my favorite bar in all of Baltimore. Mike definitely creates the culture there and there no better place to watch the game.

★★★★★ Jessica, Jul 2020

Best bar I have ever been too in my life. I came from PA for my birthday. Every one there was so friendly & nice. I felt safe and at home, which was important to me. I will definitely come back the next time I am in the neighborhood. I do not remember my bartenders name, I believe it began with an M?

★★★★★ Alexis, Jun 2019

Fantastic neighborhood pub where locals and out-of-towners can comingle over drinks and whatever game you're looking to watch. Doesn't matter whether you come from near or far, Mike is an outstanding barkeep who makes all feel welcome. Stay away from the touristy spots and go for local charm and authenticity!
