"This was my second time at this bar, and I’d like to share my impressions. The bar is set in a large townhouse-style space with a spacious patio. You can ask for almost any drink, and they’ll have it ready in no time. The staff are friendly and deliver your drinks prontissimo!! The bar attracts a wonderfully mixed crowd, which I found especially interesting. In the U.S., it’s rare to find bars where younger and older generations truly mingle. At the Cat’s Eye, you’ll find people of all ages socializing, happy, and full of good energy. The live music is excellent. One night I enjoyed a jazz band; another time, a different band was playing country and pop/rock. Each visit felt fresh and entertaining. The highlight of my night was meeting the bar’s owner, Tony. He treats his guests with genuine kindness, pays close attention to everyone he serves, and greets people with a warm smile. I was staying at The Pendry across the street. While its bar looks impressive, the drinks and service were disappointing, to put it mildly. In contrast, the Cat’s Eye felt like a genuine treat. The level of service here is comparable to the Four Seasons hotel bar or the Emirates A380 onboard lounge—and that impressed even a snob like me. 🙂 I live in DC, and I’m already planning to return to this gem—a truly unique bar with great character and top-notch entertainment."

"This is one of the greatest music bars in the world!! You will never see a bad band here. Thick with history, this Baltimore landmark is a best bet any night of the week. Music starts early on Saturday and Sunday. NO OBNOXIOUS TVS in you face..just a few if you need to peak at the game."

"Bands are great, Guinness is cold, and service is excellent. Would note that sometimes the cover is cash only, if going to see a band. My new favorite bar in Baltimore!"

"Hands down one of my favorite bars in Baltimore, great day drinking bar w live music at nights, this is a classic Irish pub with no frills and locals place. Check this place out at night for sure too!!!"

"I first came here in 2008, while I was staying in Baltimore for a month for a work project. It quickly became my favorite place. Whenever I stop in Baltimore now, I come here to check out a band. Great place, great vibe great music, and great employees! You can tell that Morgan really cares about the place and the people that work there! A hidden gem for sure!"
