Having reserved seats for a rock concert (by Wishbone Ash, a favorite of mine from 1970 in England, and still going strong), I opted to take my wife to dinner at the Tavern next door, beforehand. The discount package included $5 parking, 10% off our meals, and an optional beer after the show (though we needed to leave and did not take advantage.)
Reviews were very good and our neighbor, an executive in global rock and dining hospitality company, heartily recommended the Tavern as well as the band.
We found the vintage pub to be modernized but true to its character, filling two adjacent buildings on West Street in the old town of Annapolis, and just across the street from a discounted parking garage.
Kelly, our server, was quickly attentive; the house lager and a canned Bold Rock cider were both excellent. My crabcake with cole slaw and fries and my partner’s blackened fish tacos were fine. I have been comparing crabcakes at restaurants in Northern Virginia in the past two weeks. Although this crabcake was not in the top jumbo lump meat crabcake category that I have eaten recently, it was high quality, fresh, and nicely presented — very good value for pub seafood.
Both Kelly and the manager who stopped by the table were charming and attentive without interrupting us — just the way one would want.
We opted to share the low gluten solution, flourless chocolate cake with spray cream and sauce, finding it delicious.
Overall, we loved our visit to Rams Head, and will return both for the hospitality and the rock and jazz concert series. It was worth a three-hour round trip from our home in Northern Virginia, plus an overnight stay in a hotel near BWI (another one hour round trip from Annapolis). In sailing season, we hope to return here any day when crewing a sailboat out of Annapolis.

If you’re not paying attention, you might miss it, but this is DEFINITELY worth a stop in. What a cool building and a really neat vibe. I’m so glad we stopped in! Great beverage selection, excellent service, and definitely try the crab puppies. Sooooo good! If you’re in Annapolis, this is a must see!

I really wanted to like the food but it was a miss for me. The blackened salmon had no flavor! I would usually finish a whole plate of something like this. They got my partners order wrong twice and we were the only people in our section. The eggs were for sure the best thing. I’ll give them props for having gluten free buns. I may give it another try for burger night.

This place has gone downhill. Crab dip has very little crab (tastes like a bowl of warm cream cheese), they have no beer glasses available, and the veggies are dried out / brown around the edges. There are to many great places nearby to eat here again

We stopped in for lunch while staying at the Graduate. I had the Irish Shepherds Pie and It was delicious. The meals were served fairly quickly. The server was fast and very friendly.

We attended an early show on Dec 6th. The service was excellent as was the entertainment . The food however that was served at the performance left a lot to be desired. While I realize I was warned up front that the food was better in the restaurant. That’s an understatement , the Cream of Crab was like a pancake batter and the Steak & Cheese Quesadia was soggy with grease . Probably wouldn’t have bothered me if the prices were not so steep and it was served on paper plates. Oh well , you live and learn. I’ll go back , I’ll just eat somewhere. Else first.

We went there for Thanksgiving day lunch. The Shepherds pie was unremarkable. The Thanksgiving day specials were mediocre if not poor. There was turkey breast instead of real carved turkey. The side dishes had no flavor. The pumpkin cheesecake tasted like it was from a box. The squash soup came in a tiny cup, which was fine because it was not particularly good. The rolls were hot and very good.

Best item was a Piña colada and lime mocktail. Very tasty!

Service was very good but nobody came to ask how things were going.

Had dinner after football game. House Lager was good. Crabdip w jalapeño was different but very good. Jalapeños were not over powering. Cream of crab very good. Duck was a little overcooked but crepes were perfect. Scallops were fresh. Would definitely go back.

Enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving Day turkey dinner at Rams Head Tavern today. The food was so flavorful and fresh. The seasonings made the food taste incredible. Definitely, a repeat for next year and maybe any other week that I’m in Annapolis.
Thank you for the great food!

Rams Head has always been a venue with outstanding music venue in the region. No where else are you going to see some of the biggest artists with such an intimate seating arrangement. Literally one of the coolest spots to see a show – I’ve seen John 5, comedy and That One Guy here plus several other shows in the early 2010’s.

Aside from one of the largest spots in town to grab a micro-brewed beer, this brewery has long lost its ‘micro’ brewery status as they’re contracted brewed. Since Fordham and Dominion merger in 07 the former Dominion Milk Stout was long erased from their offerings. Guest taps appeared, and even macro lagers from big named breweries are now on tap.

Though not brewed on site the beer is of the highest quality. Split originally between Dover, DE and off-sites, Today all their ‘brewing’ is done by Hugh Sisson and the team at Heavy Seas (one of Maryland’s most celebrated breweries going back to Sisson’s brewery of Baltimore in the 95).

The basement bar is outstanding and reminds me of The Brewer’s Art in Baltimore ( if that is still a thing). Service was lackluster and underwhelming. The caesar I had was average.
