Baltimore Maryland Bars Offer Food and Drink Specials for Super Bowl Sunday

As much as we wish it were the Ravens stepping onto the field this year, the Super Bowl is an excuse to party no matter which teams are playing. Whether you’re inexplicably pulling for the Patriots, or cheering on former Raven-turned-Eagle Torrey Smith, there are plenty of local bars and restaurants throwing watch parties to celebrate the big game. So throw on a jersey, crack open a beer, watch Justin Timberlake take the stage during halftime (here’s hoping for an ’NSYNC reunion), and enjoy the biggest competition of the year at any one of these area eateries.

B&O American Brasserie: To celebrate the matchup, this downtown dining destination inside the Hotel Monaco is getting creative with its cocktail menu. Bartender Anna Welker will be serving three specialty drinks, “two that are very different, plus one that just wants everyone to get along,” she says. For $10, sip the “Dawkins Knock Out” (Laird’s applejack, Kinsey rye, and Lillet Blanc with an orange twist), the “Beli-check Yourself” (a play on a Cape Cod cocktail with vodka, cranberry-juniper shrub, and grapefruit liqueur), or the “Peacemaker”—a boilermaker with Sam Adams beer from Boston and Kinsey bourbon from Philadelphia. 2 N. Charles St., 443-692-6172

The Baltimore Eagle: This Station North standby is famous for its ragers, and the Super Bowl will be no exception with the game projected on the big screen and $3 Absolut and Miller Lite refills. 2022 N. Charles St., 410-200-9858

Bo Brooks: No Super Bowl party is complete without tailgate fare, and this Canton crab house will have plenty of it.

A, 410-588-0202

The Brass Tap at the Fitzgerald: This Midtown beer bar—which celebrated its one-year anniversary earlier this week—is backing the Eagles with draft specials from Philadelphia-based Victory Brewing. Be sure to line your stomach with pub grub including loaded tots, hushpuppies, rib nachos, and Buffalo chicken dip. 1205 W. Mount Royal Ave., 888-901-2337

Magerks Pub: You probably shouldn’t bother showing up to this Federal Hill favorite—which also boasts a second location in Bel Air—if you’re not wearing midnight green. The pub is expected to be packed with Eagles fans chowing down on cheesesteaks, downing $15 Miller Lite buckets, throwing back Eagles Bombs (green shooters mixed with Red Bull), and chanting “Fly Eagles Fly” while watching the game on 14 plasma screens. 1061 S. Charles St., 410-576-9230
