What People Are Saying About Ottobar
The Editor

Citysearch
In Short – Open since 1997, downtown Baltimore's Otto Bar has become one of the city's essential live-music venues, bringing in nationally touring acts and underground stars of the indie, punk, electronica and metal scenes. The interior may be beat up, but the hip, young clientele comes for music rather than atmosphere. Upstairs, the 21-and-older portion of the venue often features live jazz in the evenings and DJs later.

My favorite place to see live music
by kevtyla
The Ottobar is my favorite place in Baltimore to see live music. Not to big, not to small, short or tall you can see from anywhere in the venue. A great place to see all the happening acts before they get "too big". Ottobar also brings some great bands into town that may otherwise just pass us by. Centrally located on Howard St, I am always happy to see a band is listed to play Ottobar and not one the "bigger" venues downtown, where parking is harder and admission is usually much higher. I hope Ottobar stays around for a long time.

great events, great atmosphere
by ratherbeinphilly
The old Ottobar kicked ass, but the newer one is, miraculously, even cooler. They have great shows and I always have a lot of fun when I go. I especially recommend the monthly "underground" dance party night.
