The Ready Room Cocktail Bar

I absolutely love old line and I love the space they created here. I really enjoy all of their spirits and they've done a great job at putting together really well balanced cocktails. The cocktail bar has a good mix of tables and lounge areas along with a really cute outdoor space where they occasionally have live music and food trucks. If your looking for an off the beat place to grab a drink with friends add this to your list.

This is quite the place! The Ready Room is located inside of Old Line Distillery and as of this writing, open Fridays and Saturdays. Whether sitting at the bar or at their super comfy couches, it's very inviting to stay awhile.Drinks - Old Line specializes in two spirits: rum and whiskey. Don't be fooled; they have varieties of those two options in terms of aging and blending process for a grand total of five products. When I went, $15 got us a flight of every spirit they produce - and they don't skimp! I thought it would be a little 1/2 oz tasting, but this was just shy of a full shot each, so I ended up sharing with my companions. Speaking of flights, they also offer flights by style. For example, if you are more of a rum person, they have a flight of their rums as well as some from other local distilleries. Ditto for the whiskeys. A nice touch promoting competitors in the spirit of... well, spirits!The cocktails were great. I got a daiquiri - a proper daiquiri with lime and rum. Not to hate on a spiked strawberry smoothie, but this is the OG daiquiri (and the better one, IMHO). I also split the Liberty Risk, made with their Navy Strength cask rum, with my companions. They limit you to one because it is STRONG. Suffice it to say I ended up staying a little longer than originally planned. Overall, they have six regular cocktails and one or two specials. They also offer a couple of local beers on tap, but we came for the spirits.If you enjoyed the cocktails, they sell the Old Line spirits as well as some bar tools so you can try your hand at home. The prices aren't too bad for what it is and service is fast and friendly. I look forward to coming back!

This place is fantastic! Such a wonderful addition to the neighborhood. I've been meaning to come over here after work for sometime, since my wife and I work nearby at the Bayview Campus. Finally, some friends hosted a post-work happy hour here last Friday and I was not disappointed. First off, the whiskeys and rums were all delicious, and they had a nice beer and cocktail selection. Additionally, the space was very welcoming, with parking onsite, and excellent service. If you haven't been here, check it out!

A bit off the beaten path, but I guess that's where you put a distillery. Inventive cocktails featuring the distillery's liquor and a pretty extensive list of things to explore.

I've been a fan of Old Line since they opened in this location, which is off the beaten path just about still in Highlandtown - but perfect for tying in with a visit to Monument City or Urban Axes. The space has always been great - a huge warehouse area now repurposed for distilling and aging their single malt whiskey and rum, with a cosy and inviting tasting room. And the products have always been excellent too - I'm a huge fan of the single malt, which combines Old World grains with a New World sweetness into something really unique. Recently they upped the tasting room game to become the Ready Room, which now serves a variety of cocktails featuring the distillery products week-round, instead of on the prior special occasions. Among other things, they feature boilermakers with local craft beer (Monument City and Key breweries), and a concept old fashioned menu (love the Delta Easy!). There are also regular events such as weekly trivia, or limited edition releases. Be sure to stop in on a Saturday and also take a tour to hear the story behind the distillery!
