Wayward Bar & Kitchen

One of my go to bars for when I go out in Fed on a weekend night. It's also a good spot to go to on Thursday nights for their "flip night" where you can win drinks for a penny. I came on Friday night for some happy hour drinks to start off the night. They offer happy hour drink deals Tuesday thru Friday from 4pm -7pm, with other specials throughout the week. They have a full dinner menu here, but I haven't tried much of it yet, other than the mozzarella sticks that were good. They have an inside area with lots of TVs, high tops, and plenty of bar seating and an additional outside back patio area. Great spot to come for a night out or to watch the games with friends. Late at night on the weekends they usually have a DJ and an area inside where people can dance.I would have given this place 5 stars, but when I came in the weekend prior the bathroom stalls in the women's bathroom had fallen over while inside. When I let the bartender know it seemed like they had already known that this was happening. Hopefully they get it fixed so that this won't happen again.

Just a great bar to meet up with friends. There's always some kind of drink special on game days. Today was buy one get one free crushes! Overall, it's a great place to kick off your weekend. Food: Bar food: wings, burgers and more. But as stated before I go here to socialize. Service: Depending on how busy it is food sometimes takes a while. The outdoor bartenders get swarmed with drink orders. So be patient, they'll get to you. Ambiance:I love the outdoor bar area. There are plenty of tvs to watch the game as well as picnic tables for larger groups. The cornhole games get pretty lively so bring your A- game. Inside there's a Member's Only Whiskey Bar and seating for dining.

Outdoor setting is awesome, and staff were friendly, but I find it very frustrating when the menu on a website doesn't at all match what is offered on site. I made plans to come her with friends after seeing they had an appealing happy hour with options that appealed to all the different tastes in our group. Upon arrival the options were very different. Since none of us wanted light beer, seltzer, or rail liquor we moved on.I know restaurants are impacted by inflation, and I get it that menus change, but I had been hoping to find a place to get a good beer or a cocktail for happy hr.

I was looking for somewhere to go for happy hour. Most of the Happy hours in the area are over by 6 PM and I have already missed that this place has happy hour until seven. It was a slow day so there weren't many people in there, but I didn't mind that. There were two bartenders who were super friendly and on top of things. The place was clean, and I really liked that. There were multiple TVs playing different games. I was happily surprised by their beer selection to see that one of my faves was on the list. I felt like trying something new so I had the horseradish wings. Surprisingly they were actually really good. I just asked for a side of sauce because there wasn't much on the wings. The sauce was a creamy, sweet horseradish, which was very good. I also got some cheese curls. I think they are called. They had bacon, ranch cheese, and some type of queso cheese With green onions. Very good and fresh. I like my french fries and things to be on the crispy side and they were cooked to perfection. Definitely will come back to watch a football game or baseball game and take advantage of their other specials.

I've only been to the white marsh location so figured I'd check the OG location out. It was happy hour when we arrived so we took advantage of $5 apps and ordered the soft pretzel and mozzarella sticks. The mozz sticks were nothing special but the soft pretzel and dip it came with was really good. It reminded me of the queso they had on the old menu. For entrees, we ordered the OG burger and Nashville hot chicken sandwich. The Nashville hot was not playing around, it was hotttt. The OG burger was good and the bun was toasted making it v yummy. Our server was attentive and very nice. I'm a lil bitter that they removed the brisket from the menu but still enjoyed the visit!

I didn't care for the food or beverage, but the atmosphere and service was fine. I stopped in for appetizers with my sister and little brother. He likes the place, so I assumed it would be good. He said they had the best crushes in the city, so we had to get one.I ordered the grapefruit crush, which i didn't care like. I also had the soft pretzel, which had NO flavor whatsoever. None of liked it, so most of it went uneaten. We didn't care for the dipping sauces either. We also shared the fries that were decent. It's hard to mess up french fries, though. My brother liked his drink (he had alcohol), but he likes anything alcoholic. He's also worked as a bartender, so he appreciates a well-made drink. My sister also liked her drink.As I said, the service was good. I don't recall her name, but the bartender was awesome. She was fun and very personable. The vibes were good as well. I'd go back for that reason alone. Overall, though, I wasn't impressed.

I would leave No stars if I could but I'm forced to choose one. Last Night my daughters were asked to leave for literally no reason. They were standing around waiting for the a bartender to wait on them & upon seeing other people going around them getting served they spoke up to a female bartender who snapped at them in a very rude way and said she acknowledged them waiting & she will get to them when she had "time" she then continued to wait on other people who arrived after them. They stood waiting looking at her waiting to have a turn to order & then a female security guard approached them asking did they have a problem & without waiting for an answer told them they have to leave. They were shocked but they left promptly as to the confrontation by the female security brought attention to them & they felt outnumbered & threatened. This was uncalled for & very rude. Not to mention my daughters are not white they are of mixed race & couldn't help to think that that's probably why they were singled out being there was absolutely no reason to be thrown out as they stood waiting to order drinks . This incident shows that they do not care or value their customers of other ethnicity. I'm sure the owner would not appreciate business being lost over power trips or racism of their employees. My daughters were singled out & treated badly for no reason and will never return & I will not recommend this place to any of my friends or family.

Wayward just opened a brand new outdoor patio and it definitely takes this Federal Hill bar status to the top level! The new patio provides such a great outdoor option in Federal Hill. The patio is two levels, has plenty of seating and offers space for outdoor games like corn hole and even live music. Wayward has a really great crush menu and I definitely recommend trying some (or all ) The food is definitely your solid normal bar fare! Especially with this new outdoor space, would totally rec this spot!

I was looking for a chill place to have dinner with my husband for his birthday and Wayward was beyond what we expected. We definitely came hungry and I was super excited that it wasn't too cold outside because their outside seating area is a must. We ended up sitting outside enjoying our food which consisted of brisket mac (to die for! an absolute must try!); wings with house wing sauce; fries; and the impossible burger. For drinks, we ordered from their Happy Hour menu - I got a glass of Pinot Grigio and a glass of Rose, while my husband ordered 2 rounds of the Sweet Heat mule (I tried it and it was ok ONLY because i'm not a fan of spicy stuff and this definitely has a kick to it, but other than that it was good). All in all - Food: brisket mac is an A++++++; wings were yummy, you could definitely tell they were smoked and grilled as the flavor was in each bite - I would like to try the old bay next time (yes, we will be back!); fries were bomb.com - they're shoestring, crispy, and delicious!; and my husband finished his impossible burger! Our server (as well as the other employees) were great! The attention the employees give to their customers is greatly appreciated. Oh, and their women's restroom was immaculate - thank you!!
