No Idea Tavern

Terrible, terrible service. I suggest on a Saturday night you staff the bar with more than one bartender. Especially one that caters to her friends … Took over 15 minutes to get a drink due to her avoiding eye contact with us so she could chat with her friends about the last time she got arrested. Plenty of other bars in Charm City I prefer to give my money to. Oh and the constant profanity coming out of her mouth at people, classy.

This is my Sat/​Sun brunching spot! You can’t beat getting drinks and food for under $ 20. $ 9 for all you can drink mimosas/​bloody marys/​beer until 1. The breakfast food options are also amazing. I have tried a few things and have never been disappointed. A must try!

If you are looking for a brunch with endless drinks, No Idea is your place. Incredible prices, great drinks, and good food. Also, pet friendly!

I most recently went for Trivia on a Tuesday night and it was surprisingly packed! I highly recommend going elsewhere for trivia. This place run their trivia on the honor system, and the intercom system makes it difficult to hear the questions. By the time we got there (well before trivia had started) they were already out of answer sheets. There was only one server, so the service was intermittent and the drink specials were not impressive ($ 15 bucket, I believe).

Nice PSU /​Maryland game day atmosphere with plenty of beer available.
Good amount of tv’s on hand and a nice block party off the side door.
Thanks for having us for some pre-​game fun and beer.

This is not my first time and won’t be the last. The bartenders greet you by name if they know you and your a regular. The atmosphere and music is awesome. The wings are amazeballs! There customer service is top notch, clean bathrooms, and seating is very comfortable! Will be back will invite friends!

In terms of brunch, you get a pretty good deal at No Idea Tavern — $ 9 for bottomless brunch with your choice of Natty Boh, mimosas and bloody marys! All of the brunch entrees are all under $ 10 which was awesome. I got the corned beef hash which is one of my breakfast stapes — the hash was a little too salty for me but besides that the food was decent.
No Idea Tavern is a very chill place to have brunch — no lines, no frills, no worries. They are also very generous in their pourings for their bottomless brunch. Every time the guy walked passed me, he would fill up my glass even if it was still half full. The mimosas were great — it wasn’t watered down like some bottomless places and your glass was never empty.
Also, the brunch was covered by a Living Social ticket that I had bought, which ended being such an incredible deal! Bottomless brunch and entrees for two people for a mere $ 25! What a steal!
I also heard they have an awesome happy hour here (like $ 10 all you can drink) so I will be needing to make my back to No Idea Tavern soon!

Went on a Tuesday for trivia. Ought and had a great time. The bartender Bobby was a pretty good trivia host. Everybody seemed to have a good time. The menu looked pretty good, although a ton of typos, really enjoyed their burger. They had 10 or 12 drafts that they said they rotate, wish they had a draft list but the cold beers arrived quickly and that’s all I cared about! My girl enjoyed her orange crush even though she was hoping to have a grapefruit crush made with tequila. Overall the experience was definitely worthy of a five star rating due to the service and burger. Good times had by all!

So I admit, despite my seeming enthusiasm for trying new places, I am also very much a creature of habit. If I’m going to drink at a bar in Fed, I’m going to Delia Foley’s. Occasionally, I would accompany my handsome man to No Idea when it was the OFFICIAL Liverpool F.C. bar for a festive football (as in British football, as in soccer, as in I have no idea whats going on usually) match. It was very crowded and very loud, which is why it wasn’t a usual thing for me.
HOWEVER, we have recently discovered that, although No Idea is no longer the official Liverpool bar, they still show the Premier League games on weekend mornings, and STILL have their $ 10 bottomless mimosa/​bloody/​miller special! With less crowds! This means, for us, a better time actually watching the game, more drinks from a more attentive bartender, and delicious brunchies.
This past Saturday we were both sick, but ventured out anyway. I’m glad we did! I enjoyed some DELICIOUS, vitamin-​C packed, freshly squeezed orange crushes and some toasted ravioli. Perfect sick food. The bartender was sweet, there was a nice mix of premier league fans, and it was pleasantly not packed. We’ll be back for more snacks and crushes this weekend!

Walked to the nearest brunch place we could find. This place was so so, it wasn’t terrible but not a place I would recommend. We had a big party about 10 – 12 people. The food was brought out in portions based on what people ordered. I was done with my meal and waiting before the one side of the table even got their cheesesteaks. I would say it was over an hour before they even saw any food.
My meal was the grilled cheese club. It was alright. Delicious tomato bisque soup but it would have been nice if it was even warm. The meal was not very hot, and I was scared to even ask to send it back after waiting almost 40 minutes.
The $ 9 bottomless mimosas were a good steal. Thank god I had those or I would have been complaining on the wait.
We also had someone from our party ask to change the channel to a different game. which they wouldn’t. Our waiter was super polite though I just feel bad on the slow kitchen.

I’ve been to No Idea Tavern in Fed Hill before and I’ve loved it. Recently, they redid the menu and Alex, the general manager, invited my friend and I over to give some new items a try.
While we were there, we noticed the bartender, Bart, was wearing a really awesome looking t-​shirt. When we asked him about it, he said it was from
which he owns. The shirts are really awesome if you’re looking to update your wardrobe with some more clothing to rep your Bmore pride.
Alex suggested we try the Risotto Fritters, so that’s what we started with. It’s a ball of risotto stuffed with cheese and then in a bed of pesto marinara sauce. The cheesy risotto fritters were delicious, but the pesto marinara sauce was out of this world!
Next, we ordered the Toasted Ravioli. There were five deep fried raviolis stuffed with cheese and spices and served with a side of marinara sauce. The ravioli was great, but I found myself dipping it in the amazing sauce from the risotto fritters.
One of my favorite items to order at a bar is wings. And up until this meal, the wings at Delia Foley’s were my favorite in Federal Hill. However the Honey Old Bay Wings at No Idea are my new favorites in Fed Hill. The honey old bay sauce combined the nice spice from old bay, plus the sweetness from honey and turned the wings from just having a rub, to wings with a sauce. Additionally, they had a nice crispy exterior with a moist interior. I will be back for these very soon.
Another new addition to the menu was the Grilled Cheese Club. This sandwich is three slices of bread, cheese, bacon and pepperoni. I ordered it without the pepperoni but it was still delicious, the crispy bacon between the bread really made this sandwich. And it comes with a creamy side of tomato soup for dipping which should be mandatory for all grilled cheese sandwiches.
The last thing we ordered was a Chicken Spiedie. This type of sandwich is a Binghamton classic and according to Alex, it’s hard to find in Baltimore. The sandwich is grilled chicken marinated in spiedie sauce with provolone cheese on a roll. The sauce made the chicken nice and juicy. If I’m ever in Binghamton, for sure I will be ordering a chicken spiedie.
The new menu at No Idea Tavern does not disappoint. The wings are my new favorite in Fed Hill and it’s the only place in Baltimore to get the Binghamton classic, chicken spiedie.

Great neighborhood bar with friendly staff. Food here is on the upside. Always have a special going on. Plenty of TV’s to watch the game on. Great brunch specials on the weekends. Try the bottomless mimosas n bloody Mary’s. You need to try the sweet Asian wings. They are one of the best wings I have ever had. Never a bad time here. Almost forgot always a few great local beers on tap

My friends and I always come here before a Sunday O’s game in Baltimore. It is a fast walk to Camden yards from the bar and there is always parking available (make sure you are able to park in your spot – you will get towed).
On Sunday they have great O’s specials and a brunch that is offered in addition to all you can drink specials. I usually do the mimosas and western omelet.
The bartenders are always nice and we have actually known a few of them from bartending at Friday’s at Arundel Mills mall. The whole crew is rather amazing and super accommodating.

I came here with my whole family for Brunch because of one of those groupon/​living social vouchers but first I had Unilocaled it before I purchased it. I am so glad I did and I don’t know why I haven’t been back since. It was an unbelievable deal. I want to say I paid like $ 16 for two full meals of our choice plus a giant pitcher of Blood Mary or Mimosa. Although the menu is simple, the food is cooked well. I had the Corned beef hash with hash browns and eggs plus toast. I asked for my hash to be extra crispy… and it was. They have a huge selection of hot sauces sitting at the top of most of the rooms like decoration. The place is huge and divey yet comfy if that makes sense. We came when they were pretty busy yet we seem to be able to nab the living-​like room with a couple of large couches and a recliner and our own flat screen tv with remote iin hand… how awesome is that?! The older gentleman serving us was super sweet and thoughtful during our visit and that was appreciated considering I had two little girls who were curious of everything going on around them. The bar area was filled with sports enthusiasts and draft beers in tote. They have great drink specials all week long and trivia on some nights… so I was told. We ended up giving ¾ of our pitcher away to one lucky group sitting across from us that was happy to receive. I will definitely be back soon but when the Sun goes down. :)

This is the kind of place for :
breakfast after a hangover
boys night/​girls night out
best drinks ever (strong)
game night
I must say any place that has a leather sofa and chairs with the leg lamp from A Christmas Story is bound to be fun. The Staff was quick and very helpful with the limited brunch menu. The tots were cooked well mine are never as good as theirs. My husband loved the corn beef hash and french toast was OK nothing to jump up about… but a decent meal.
So why would I go back? the food was decent not bad winning and the drinks were on point. It a good local bar were everyone will know your name

Come on a weekend for their «blackout brunch“special, all you can drink mimosa/​bloody Mary’s/slushies/natural lights for $ 9, until 1 pm… can you say DEAL???
Not only do they have amazing deals on the weekends but they also have Trivia Tuesdays with drink deals and $ 5 cheesesteaks (not that I eat meat but it’s a great deal).
Most noteworthy is the fact that their bartenders and servers are stellar — a little surly but they can pour and they are fast… check them out!

It’s a Fed Hill sports bar. I’m not sure what I was expecting, but it wasn’t something I’ll visit again readily. It’s not quite nice looking & not quite clean.
The «Blackout Brunch» is $ 9 for all you can drink mimosas or Bloody Marys. I had purchased the LivingSocial deal, and the mimosa pitcher was very meh. If I was drinking them all day, maybe it wouldn’t have been a problem, but I’d rather spend $ 9 on one or two drinks elsewhere if they’re going to be decent. The coffee was seriously weak. That’s a sin in my book.
The pancakes (which our waiter recommended) were okay. I wasn’t impressed. I hear the French toast was nice, due to the Kahlua. The breakfast sandwich wasn’t doing it for the other member of our party.
The moral of the story is, «Why bother?» «No idea.»

Took advantage of a living social coupon for brunch. It was ok, the pitcher of mimosa wasnt strong at all. The tots that came with my breakfast sandwich was good, the sandwich in on itself wasnt too bad. Personally, I am glad i tried it with a coupon. Its ok.

No Idea is great for:
— Welcoming, neighborhood bar vibe
— No-​frills brunch
— Bottomless mimosers
— Tots
— Trivia night
— Shuffle board enthusiasts
No idea is not great for:
— High-​falutin’ diners
— Buckeyes

Great bar set up with plenty of tables and a few couches around a stripper pole! Skee-​ball, shuffle board, and Deer Hunter fill up the back and keep all entertained! Drinks are decently priced, they run specials daily, and the atmosphere is great. Service is friendly and they even let me exchange our a beer that didn’t jive with my tastebuds.
We came for trivia, which was a little slow running, but the host was entertaining, and the categories were challenging and fun! Who doesn’t love a little trivia?! We’ll be back!
