The Ottobar

About this business

The hippest place in Baltimore to see an alternative rock band is this scruffy, but chic, midtown establishment. The bar itself is very small, so many patrons stand or sit in front of the tiny stage, or wander around the multi-colored second and third floors. The bands are either unsigned locals or independent-label acts. All play loud and fast.

Baltimore's best indie rock bar. An institution in this city. See national or up-and-coming bands downstairs, enjoy drinks and pool and dancing upstairs. Never a dull time.
