The Cat's Eye Pub, Max's Taphouse — with its 100+ draft lines — and numerous other establishments create a dense and genuinely exciting drinking neighborhood within reach of both stadiums via water taxi. Spending an afternoon in Fells Point before an Orioles game is as Baltimore as a Natty Boh.

Pratt Street Ale House
The Pratt Street Ale House has been anchoring the Inner Harbor sports bar scene for decades, pouring National Bohemian (Natty Boh) alongside dozens of craft taps to Orioles and Ravens fans crossing the street from the stadiums. The no-frills atmosphere and Baltimore sports DNA make it the kind of pre-game bar that every city wishes it had.
The Horse You Came In On Saloon
America's oldest continuously operating saloon, established in 1775 in Fells Point, reportedly the last place Edgar Allan Poe was seen alive. Live music nightly and a raucous gameday atmosphere make this a must-visit before or after games at Camden Yards or M&T Bank Stadium.

The stadium sits adjacent to Camden Yards, creating America's most famous sports campus — doing both tours in one day is a Baltimore sports rite of passage.
Oriole Park at Camden Yards Tour
Tour the ballpark that changed stadium design forever with a guided walk through Oriole Park at Camden Yards, the 1992 retro-classic that inspired every major league park built since.
