Poets Modern Cocktails and Eats

This bar has the bonus of being across the street from my favorite space in baltimore so any time I have an event to go to at Enoch Pratt I stop in here first.The happy hour cannot be beat. Its a great place to meet up with a small group of friends before your night out or to have a bigger event. The last time we went there was a larger meet up but there was enough space for all.Always get good service here and you can always get a well made drink. Keep in mind this is also a hotel so the food options are pretty standard and wont blow you away but if you need a filling salad or a quick sandwich and fries you will definitely be covered here

My work bestie and I recently visited Poets Modern Cocktails and Eats at Hotel Indigo, and it continues to be a hidden gem. We first discovered it during a holiday luncheon late last year and vowed to return. This time, we started with wings--half Honey Old Bay and half Honey BBQ. The wings were perfect, with crispy skin and juicy, tender white meat.For the main course, we both ordered the Cajun Shrimp and Chicken Pasta. While the noodles could have been cooked a bit longer, the flavor was spot on. The portion size felt a little smaller than we remembered, but it was still filling.Overall, I highly recommend visiting this spot. The food is top-tier, and I'm looking forward to coming back in the evening to try their cocktails!

A hotel bar is a hotel bar. Unless it has great food, attentive staff, comfy seating, and is a well-lit hub of the lobby's activity. We ate breakfast here twice, as it is also the hotel's principal restaurant. (This is an IHG Indigo Hotel.) Had drinks here one afternoon, and even sat at the bar to read the newspapers I bought nearby. Not your cookie cutter, corporate, tacky hotel bar. A truly unique space to meet friends and family. Glad it was here, and it makes my interest in returning to this fine hotel even greater than it would have been. And look, I agree with the late Anthony Bourdain - don't always drink at hotel bars - venture out into strange cities and go where the people who work at the hotel drink. Agreed. But every now and then, the ease of having a cold one 8 floors beneath your room beckons. Cheers!

I stopped by for a quick meal before catching an Amtrak train! The lobby/restaurant area had a lot of seating and they happened to have a jazz band on Thursday night. There is WiFi and outlets if you need to get work done! The food was decent but on the more expensive side.

We arrived late in the evening, so we decided to grab a bite in the lobby of Hotel Indigo. Customer service was pretty solid. The vibe was cool and low-key. The food was okay. It was sufficient for dining in a hotel lobby and for a quick meal if you do not feel like leaving the hotel. The hummus was pretty good. The pita that was on the platter with the hummus was just cold and flat. The curly fries and wings were okay. The wings had a good flavor; they just were not cooked as well as I would have liked them. Again, it's nothing to rave about, but you won't starve if you do not want to leave the hotel.

I stayed at the hotel for a few days, but only tried the breakfast. The service at breakfast was very attentive, friendly, and efficient. It has a chill atmosphere & comfortable seating. The side of bacon was thick, crispy & well cooked. The griddle pancakes were perfect. They were light & fluffy, golden & delicious (even before adding butter or syrup), & had just the right amount of sweetness.

I had a large salad and plenty of mix-ins to keep my taste buds happy. The location confused me at first, but my group soon found it and was seated almost right away. It's a classy spot with plenty to enjoy, look at, and easy access from the street. My group ordered quite a bit but our server was kind and made great recommendations. We didn't wait too long and noticed many families gathered there. We ate and chatted merrily without disturbances from others. And the spot and service was worth a more generous tip because of the lunch time rush that came with being so popular!

Lovely spot, nice hotel, and great people! Super thankful to be able to have such comfort food in the midst of Baltimore so close to the Walters Museum. The ambience was calm and casual, and everyone seemed very comfortable. The seats right next to the window seemed like a dreamy location to have tea or coffee or a short meal with a friend or chat for hours. I was at a table with my friends, and we were very much not ignored, and Served very comfortably and well. Alisha, I think her name was, was very attentive and playful with all of us. Despite our hunger, she made the weight very short, and got us out her food very quickly. The food was hot, when it was supposed to be hot, and the salads were so refreshing. Each flavor was a different, each texture was on point, and all of us were so comfortable and so happy to be there. This was a modernized comfort, food, like poetry being read to us and consumed with each bite. Super thankful and grateful for great service and food in the middle of town!

Lightly fried mild nice flaky moist fish, crispy slaw with a sweet spicy drizzle and perfectly prepared tortillas

Context is important. This is a hotel restaurant. It is not the passion project of a lifelong hospitality specialist.Given that context this place is great. Interesting decor, connected to the primary lobby, so feels lively, friendly service, nice tableware, comfortable chairs, and good coffee.
