Oscar's Alehouse

Love at first sight, and love at first bite. I came here on a Wednesday evening with my girlfriend's family, and everything was perfect. I love the rustic feel of this place, super homey. We played their weekly trivia, which was awesome! So much fun for everyone. The service was incredible, all the staff is super personable and friendly. I ordered the Eldersburger well done, it was cooked perfectly and was so juicy. Everything was so delicious and fairly priced as well. I really enjoyed the bacon cheeseburger. It came with fries, and I dipped them in ketchup and mayo. My girlfriend got a Reuben sandwich and a side salad-- it was my first time trying corn beef, and might I say, certainly not my last. The Reuben was incredible, and the balsamic dressing for the salad was to die for! My girlfriend's dad got the chicken parm sandwich special, which looked incredible. We were satisfied and happy, the food and trivia called for a perfect night!

The Only Review You Need To ReadWe've seen this place every time we've visited this plaza, and during our most recent trip, people leaving the restaurant raved to us about how good it was. So we finally decided to try it.There were lots of items on the menu which sounded tasty, but I opted for a bowl of cream of crab soup as my starter with the wood-fired shrimp & bacon club sandwich as my entree. And my funny little hunny ordered the honey salmon & shrimp plate.The cream of crab was merely okay, though it was topped with a nice amount of crab meat. The shrimp & bacon sandwich was really good (made even better with honey mustard sauce on the side). My girlfriend complained that the seasoning on her shrimp dish was too spicy (and we learned afterwards we could order it without the seasoning), and the salmon was okay. The jasmine rice was very dry and she didn't even finish it.Our server Kelly was very friendly and attentive, and her laugh made us both smile. The gender identifiers on the restroom doors were pretty funny, and the ambience was very nice. There is a bar area in the back, and I'm sure the place gets pretty busy around dinner time, then more energized later into the night.Overall, it was a very pleasurable experience and given that there were so many other delicious-sounding items on the menu, we definitely will be back.

We still continue to love this place (repeat customer). This time my 11 year old tried food from the adult menu and loved it. This is turning into one of our staples for daddy daughter dates. The people are great and you have options... if you want more of an uppers sale sit down, you have the front area - if you want a sports bar, head to the back.

We have visited Eldersburg for years and often passed the shopping center in which Oscar's Alehouse is located without stopping in. The restaurant has a deceptively small appearance from the exterior. Once you enter, the place is rather large, with multiple dining rooms and extends farther back than the parking lot and storefront appear.On a busy Friday night, we were seated immediately. The guests all appeared to b enjoying themselves. Note, it is loud. People are in conversation, there are televisions on and lots of hustle and bustle. We ordered the Three Cheese Crab Dip off the appetizer menu. The appetizer is amply sized and plenty for two to four people. Served with grilled ciabatta bread and tortilla chips, we had enough dippers for the whole dip without having to ask for more. We also tried a cup of the cream of crab soup, which had plenty of flavor, between the crabmeat and Old Bay seasoning. Finally, we split the the Eldersburger, a nice quarter or 1/3 lb burger topped with cheddar cheese and applewood smoked bacon.Despite the crowd, our server was attentive and returned several times to refill drinks and provided change swiftly. The menu is pretty extensive and there were craft sandwiches and pizza options we'd like to try when we return!

I'm pretty sure I've reviewed this place and if I haven't shame on me. Oscars is one of my few repeat spots. I love that special menu changes with the seasons although I wish one of my favs ( chicken gumbo) could be on the menu year round. They did take my favorite dish, the open face meatloaf sandwich off the menu, broke my heart. I have never had a disappointment with anything that I've ordered. I'll get around to trying the pizza one day....i hear it's worth a try.

Good food, a pleasant environment, and excellent service! I think our waiter wanted to have a date with some of the beautiful women I dined with the other night, so he came back to check on us often! I came to watch the Ravens game and eat some good bar food! I had some old bay wings and a bowl of crab soup. I didn't realize they only had Cream of Crab until it arrived. I was expecting vegetable crab soup, as I would have ordered the French Onion Soup instead. I should have read the menu better. In any case, the Cream of Crab was delicious and filled with delightful lump crab meat. Also, I had Santa's hat drink, which was nice and sweet, with a little bite to it. I considered the dessert, the mega chocolate cake, but opted not to get dessert. As I walked out, I was sorry to see it being served at a table, and it looked amazing! Overall, it is a nice place to eat and watch a game. The bar area has many tables; the restaurant's front has many tables and is a lovely dining area.

The reviews seemed promising but not sure why people like this place? It seems like a nice place for a happy hour & night out but we stopped by since we were in town for something else. The food was just ok. Wasn't a fan of it but it could have been my choice since I got the ahi tuna wrap. The other food looks better but stomach was not feeling it so I needed something light. Service was ok & ambiance was silly - the restaurant had some quirky decor that I thought was fun.

The burgers and sandwiches are worth the trip. Their soups, especially crab soup, is very tasty. Although a sports bar, you can stillHold a conversation and be heard.

Staff answering the phones is incompetent and slow.One lady picked up and put us on hold to talk to a child who knew nothing only for her to put us on hold again with the original person.Just trying to place a takeout order and had a question we had to repeat multiple times.Call took 8 minutes of our life away.Tells us it will take 25-30 mins for the order to be ready. Arrived within 27 minutes. Still waiting here after 20+ more minutes and still not ready.Buffalo wings could use a lot more sauce.Chili cheese fries were congealed by the time we got home which is an 8min drive away.Fried pickles are good.Crabby bites are alright but could be saucier.

Ate there tonight. Cream of Crab was terrible! Fish and chips tasted like " old fishsticks"
