Metromix Baltimore Bars & Clubs

In Baltimore, new bars and restaurants open all the time. That doesn't mean you need to stop hanging at the neighborhood joint or change up your dining routine, especially if the new place lacks the charms to which you're accustomed.

When changes happen—whether a new club opens or an old restaurant gets a new location—Metromix plans to be the first one through the door. That way, we can help you decide if you really need to stop what you're doing and make your reservations right away, or if you can wait until the crowds subside a bit.

Go ahead and check out these first looks at some of the newest places in town, you'll feel just like the hot girl at the front of the red rope line.
