The Outpost American Tavern

We stopped by Outpost Tavern late on a Sunday morning and were immediately impressed by the lively atmosphere. Even though it was busy with about a 20-minute wait for a table, we were lucky to grab the last two seats at the bar — and we’re glad we did! The bar had a warm, upbeat vibe, and the staff were both attentive and personable, with a great sense of humor that made us feel right at home. We started with cocktails — the Golden Hour and Crimson Velvet — and both were absolutely fantastic. So good, in fact, that we couldn’t stop at just one. For food, we ordered a little bit of everything because the menu was too tempting to choose just one dish. The shells and cheese were rich, creamy, and truly to die for — absolute comfort food perfection. The Tavern wings came with a sweet & spicy sauce; while flavorful, they leaned more teriyaki than expected and we missed having a balanced mix of flats and drums. The nachos were fresh and fun in presentation, though we would love to see additional protein options like chicken or beef in the future. Despite those small details, everything tasted fresh and well-prepared, and the overall experience was fantastic. Between the vibrant atmosphere, excellent service, and great food and drinks, Outpost Tavern is definitely a place we’ll be returning to soon.

In-between brunch ending and I’m not sure. Popped in for a quick bite and a glass of wine. The bar had just enough space for me. Wasn’t sure what to order, so I quickly decided on the nachos without thinking too much. They arrived in short order with a unique "coffee can" delivery method that made for great theater. Honestly, these were the best nachos I’ve ever eaten. One of the bartenders mentioned that they hand-make their chips, which had great "crunch" and the flavor of wontons. The tomatoes, perfectly marinated, and the jalapeños were spot on. I’m usually not a nacho person, but glad I went for it here. Interior is warm and welcoming. Staff was on point and friendly. An upscale Baltimore tavern for sure, I I’ll give this a 5-star experience. I just wish the O’s had played a bit better that day.

One of the best burgers I have ever had, truffle fries are also incredible. Great deserts as well. Nice focused menu without an overwhelming amount of options. Server was incredibly polite and just the right amount of attentive. Classic tavern vibes, sound does bounce around a little too much when people are talking.

Do not sleep on the burger! The Tavern Burger with smoked Gouda, caramelized onions with truffle aioli on an onion poppyseed bun is one of the best burgers I’ve ever had the pleasure of eating. The Breakfast Burrito with chorizo was also a huge hit! Big props!👨‍🍳

This was my second time visiting The Outpost. Great service, food was delicious. I got the shrimp & grits which was one of the specials. Also ordered a side of hash browns which were nice and crispy.
