Kenwood Tavern

I've been to Kenwood Tavern a couple of times now (including last night before an event at Creative Alliance), and I enjoyed it both times. It's definitely a cocktail bar, but they have a handful of wines and beers if that's more your thing (they had a red, a white, and an orange when I was there last night). I had a glass of orange wine and a cocktail at the bar. And I think our whole group enjoyed our drinks. Maybe we're old now :( but we thought the music (great music, played on a record player behind the bar) was a little loud for 6-7pm (totally understandable if we'd be there at 10). The service is fine - maybe not the friendliest? But overall, a good bar I'm sure I'll continue to visit in Canton - large enough for groups, good cocktails, lots of cocktails on the menu, good vibes.

I was so sad when Bar 1801 closed in Upper Fells. Kenwood Tavern is owned by the same people - Matt and Molly. Those who loved Bar 1801 won't find the same natural wine forward menu instead be delighted by wonderful cocktails speared by Fern. Located on Kenwood in Canton close-ish to Patterson Park - Kenwood is a little dive and hipster bougie. It's mainly dark in the inside with a few outdoor areas. The cocktails range from a wonderful nori and dashi based cocktail to a banana foster and mezcal and tepache. They still sell records and have a little wine but it's a wonderful cocktail bar first. There is some small bites of tin dish and hot dogs on the menu. It's definitely a neighborhood favorite and will be back time and time again.

If you want a nice cocktail bar that's not your typical neighborhood sports bar, then Kenwood Tavern is the place to go in the Canton neighborhood. This place has a nice cozy date vibe or to catch up with friends. This place is dimly lit, with really cool disco vibes. They also sell vinyl records in the back for $5 dollars, so if your a record collector, this could be your jam. I will say this place can get a little crowded in the evenings, so come early, because they may only be 2-3 bartenders on duty, but they are really attentive and helpful. The menu is really small for food, so I really suggest this place as an after dinner stop for a night cap. The house cocktails are $16 and their beers are $8. And they have classic cocktails ranging between $12-$16So the next time your in Canton, just stop in check them out, you won't be disappointed. Until next time SYOY

One thing we love is a highly curated bar in the city off the beaten path! That's exactly what Kenwood Tavern is! One thing about me is that I love discovering new places especially places I would never normally venture to. One Friday Teddy and I did just that, try somewhere new and we ended up at KT. From the street it looks like a typical neighborhood bar but upon entry you are in for an experience your tastebuds and mind with thank you for! The gents who run the bar are fabulous! Extremely friendly and knowledgeable about their liquor. We sat down at the bar and upon opening the menu saw some many great options we wanted to try! The bar is currently trying out a food pop up which for the price and the portions is so worth it! The lasagna and tiramisu were simply amazing! We started off keeping it simple with the drinks. I got the desert rose ( tequila based) and Teddy the old fashioned. I am not a dark liquor girlie but the smell of that old fashioned was so captivating I had to try a little. It was amazing haha. The bar menu changes monthly and they have some really unique options like this Jamaican rum that Teddy got to try. My favorite drink of the night was the watermelon! It was so fresh, simple yet bold. The atmosphere is sexy and chill all at the same time! I love that they spin vinyl only and their taste in music is spot on! The night we went they also had live music which was really enjoyable too! They have a vinyl shop at the bottom of the bar which has a really unique selection as well! Overall 1000/10! They are open from 4-12pm 7 days a week so you can stop by anytime. This a great place for a first date, to bring friends or try solo.

If neighborhood sports bars aren't your vibe but you still want to get a nice drink and catch up with friends or come for a cosy date you should definitely check out this place. This is a dimly lit retro bar with a focus on disco. I love the fact that they play actual vinyls on a record player. It can get very busy so you seat yourself and order at the bar and they will bring your drinks when ready. Get ready to wait as there are only 2-3 bartenders and come after dinner as the kitchen may not always be open and their menu is limited. They could definitely use some more staff to help with the volume and keep the kitchen open.I appreciate that the bartenders can make something unique for you if you give them some suggestions of what you like. Drinks are priced $16 for cocktails and $8 for beers. The Lychee vodka was delicious and they use lychees for garnish!

Kenwood Tavern is a fantastic addition to the neighborhood. I'm thrilled to have a cocktail bar nearby. It's super cozy inside with a great, vibey ambiance. The drinks are delicious, and the bartenders always have a great attitude. It's the perfect spot for a drink and a great date night nightcap.

Definitely a hidden gem! Love this spot, it has a great selection of delicious drinks! I tried the Strawberry Pisco and the Lychee drink, which were both excellent!The vibes are immaculate, very much a speakeasy type feel. I would highly recommend!

I loved my experience at Kenwood Tavern! The bar has a fantastic ambiance, and since we visited on a weekday, we were able to find seating easily. The menu features a wide variety of fun and seasonal drinks. I asked the bartender for a recommendation for something sweet and tart, and he suggested the Cherry Pie. It was one of the best drinks I've had in Baltimore--exactly what I was looking for! My friend ordered the Spooky Spritz (essentially an Aperol Spritz), and she really enjoyed it. I'll definitely be back to try more drinks!

This is such a quality cocktail bar that keeps me coming back! I've been here a few times and every time I have the same great experience. The bartenders are kind and attentive and the drinks are strong and delicious. The bar is small but they spin records all night so the vibes are immaculate. This time I got the Cactus Cooler, the most refreshing tequila drink I've ever had, and the Guava Margarita, which was a perfect mix of guava and a Margarita and not too sweet at all. You'll pay $16 per cocktail but I have yet to have a bad cocktail here. My other go-to drink there is their lychee cocktail and if you want to try something very different, go for the umami.

What a gem of a neighborhood cocktail bar! This moody yet relaxed bar is tucked away in a quiet part of Canton. There is outdoor seating, a long bar, and tables on two half levels. No matter the seat, you'll get some of the best cocktail creations you can find in Baltimore. I ordered off the menu on a couple of occasions and the bartender whipped up exactly what I had in mind without knowing that's what I had in mind each time. When I went the first time, service was fairly minimal. They also charged drinks from other patrons to my tab. They found a way to make up for the error and that was around the time when they had first opened. On another occasion, we had a similar experience of aloof service when we sat at a high top table rather than at the bar. I highly recommend this local bar if you're looking for excellent cocktails where the service maybe matches the mood.
