66 /100 Go Bananas Comedy Club (Bar) 8410 MARKET PLACE LANE Tucked away on a side street (more like a driveway) off of Montgomery Road/US 22 & State Route 3 in suburban Montgomery, this club has been serving up comedy for over three decades. The seats aren't the most comfortable and the layout is strange (get there early or you'll be seated on the left side and might not be able to see the stage) but the atmosphere is friendly. Plus, the place has a resident dog, Puffin the pug. The beer list has the usual macros and standard craft selections with a couple of surprises: two Founders brews, Green Gypsy (which they were out of during my NYE visit) and Porter. Local breweries were adequately represened by High Grain, Sonder and Rhinegeist. Some creative cocktails for those so inclined (not me; I don''t drink hard liquor) and wine as well. The food is above average pub grub. Go Bananas isn't a beer destination by any means. But it is a good place to see comedy and have an acceptable brew. |
80 /100 7880 REMINGTON ROAD Light are dimmed here with rock music on the radio. Couple bartenders here. Simple food of pizza and eat Don’t see souvenirs and to go beer. 18 of their own beers and 6 left hand beers. Friendly atmosphere. I like the place. Cheers! |
78 /100 7880 REMINGTON ROAD Visited here on a Friday afternoon during the pandemic, not long after opening. So I'll have to re-rate someday. They had a big white tent on the main lot for more outdoor seating. There's a patio on the other side, and the inside has a large bar in the middle, pizza kitchen at one end, and tables all around. I think it used to be a pizza place but can't remember the name. They have a pretty big tap list, about 16-20 of their own and a dozen or so Left Hand beers. They have some kind of partnership, which is odd. The food menu is pizza and apps, but we didn't eat. Flights are $12/4 pours. I had the IPAs, and they were okay. Service was attentive but it wasn't crowded. Overall, the beer did not strike me as anything special but I can revisit later and get some food and try some more variety. |
50 /100 The Village Tavern (Bar) 9390 MONTGOMERY RD Every time I’ve been to The Village Tavern, it’s been the night before Thanksgiving and we’re hanging out with friends who are back in town for the long weekend. It’s a corner bar in the northeast suburbs, so it’s that kind of place. It’s big, but crowded on weekend nights. The food is average. The service is average. The atmosphere is average. The beer list is below average, and I wouldn’t have added it here. But in the spirit of inclusion I’ll rate it and be a good sport. It’s mostly macros, and a few local and national crafts. Nothing you can’t find at any other bar. Not really worth the trip unless you have no choice. |
44 /100 The Village Tavern (Bar) 9390 MONTGOMERY RD A good, local hangout spot, not a huge selection, but occasionally they will have something good on tap or stored away in bottles, but you gotta ask. |
