Stan and Joe’s Saloon

When you walk in the door you are greeted with the sound of live music from a band about 15 feet away. I was sold that this place was just where I wanted to be for a while on a Friday night! The drinks were made right, and the crowd was diverse enough that it reminds you of what a local bar should be — all smiling faces!

Service was horrible, new menu is horrible, they took away their awesome happy hour deal and its a million degrees. Sadly I wont be returning.

Awesome place to grab a bite and a drink. I’m a big fan of the Reuben and Doc McGovern’s Fish & Chips.

Ok so being from out of town, I have a different kind of review to write.
We were in town for the Boat Show and since this year we stayed right in town we just walked along the street and found some cool places we wanted to eat.
Well we just happened to actually meet Joe on the street! He talked to us, welcomed us to town and even told us about other restaurants in the area that we might like.
So living in the Seattle area most of my life, the vibe is always a bit different. So when we go out of town we love to see the lively vibe in bars and restaurants and how very different it is.
This place was HOPPING! Everyone was talking, everyone was shaking hands, laughing, hugging, meeting each other, buying drinks, listening to music. It was wonderful.
In the 4 or so hours we were there, we rarely saw a person look at their cell phones. They were so excited to be among humans, and have that human interaction. It was so much fun.
The staff was wonderful, and talkative, we don’t get that much at home.
The food was great, large portions, plenty of things to choose from.
The drinks pretty reasonably priced, the pours very large.
They had a live band, and as soon as the band started to play, everyone was dancing. Wow the energy here was so different than Seattle. LOVED IT!
Loved this place, really had a great time here. I highly recommend if you are in town, or live in town, go here, especially on a weekend.
Cheers!

The food was good had the ribs and the cream of crab was a amazing ! Great patio in the back the seats are not that comfortable if your a taller person. Plenty of seating except during happy hour. Get there early if you want to be on the patio! Happy hour specials are good plenty of drafts to choose from!

Had Stan and Joes for the first time today at the Maryland Seafood festival and it was by far my favorite of all the tents! Great service and staff working the booth and authentic Maryland crab. Definitely eager to try out the restaurant location in Annapolis; and if it’s anything like their booth, the food won’t disappoint!

Average sports bar in every way. We visited because it advertised itself as a location for Steelers fans. Well, we did manage to find a few Pittsburgh items on the wall. There were just as many other fans too though. The food was average. Pretty much typical bar food. Typical beer. Typical decorations. Really nothing memorable at all.

This place is ok in my book. Food is decent. Their outdoor area is pretty nice. I like going to Stan and Joe’s for Cream of Crab soup when the weather is chilly. Yesterday, I went here for lunch and had the Maryland burger which was pretty good. The Maryland burger is a burger topped with crab dip and some extra cheese sprinkled on top. I didn’t want the usual extras on it: lettuce, tomato, and onion. It was tasty regardless. I would like to go here one day for happy hour. After checking out their happy hour menu, it looks like they offer a pretty good deal. Staff are super cool and friendly from my experiences there.

We went there because we could have the dogs there fora happy hour. The music was great and the beer prices reasonable. However, we won’t order food there again. The two appetizers we ordered were microwave quality and cost about triple what I could have microwaved them for, so they weren’t exactly good happy hour deals. For happy hour food, there are a couple places nearby with much better quality. With that said, I would go back to just have a beer with the dogs.

Tasty food and terrific service. Not your average pub fare. Our waitress was very helpful. Cool atmosphere with lots of memorabilia.

Stopped in for a quick lunch while on break. Nice welcoming atmosphere and good random mix of songs played. Wendy was the bartender and server. GREAT personality. Everyone else very friendly as well. I’ll be definitely be back when I don’t have to run more errands :)

Stopped in for happy hour with a group on Friday night. We shared a couple of apps, potato skins, Chesapeake skins, and wings — all okay. The drinks were strong and the prices were pretty reasonable. By the time we left around 7 it was pretty crowded, so get there early.

Had lunch here last Friday with our dog. The food & service were both great, and they allow dogs in their courtyard outback which is awesome.

Its a bar. But with that being said good food. I had the turkey club and my wife had the chicken salad she loved that also. I recommend it. Nice little hole in the wall.

Cool little neighborhood bar /​lounge here in downtown Annapolis, MD !
Great happy hour specials and prices on beer and food from 4pm-​7pm.
Coming from colorado I was very surprised by the character of this little hole in the wall! I met a lot of local people who were more than happy to talk with me and chat !
Wendy is quite literally the best bartender I’ve ever had the pleasure of being around! She literally took time out of her day to recommend places for dinner and to also recommend the bartenders /​servers I should talk to!
If you are ever in downtown Annapolis you MUST make a stop at Stan and Joes.
Long story short this place has charm, character, and overall a friendly people that you can enjoy yourself around.
5 stars just because of the service and experience. Would highly recommend.

I wish we had a chance to actually dine in here as soon as my girl and I walked in we were told we couldn’t sit where we wanted, VERY rudely by the bartender, maybe that’s how they welcome people at Stan & Joe’s bar. there was an expansive selection of hot sauces at the bloody Mary bar, which got us excited but when people are immediately jerks I imagine the rest of the service will be very similar… maybe next time we’ll give them a shot

The food is good. I’ve been here twice for Lunch and would definitely go back again. I really liked my waitress the first time I went there. She was so nice and sweet and pleasurable. Nice place to chill for Lunch. I will frequent this place many times I’m sure while working in the Annapolis area.

The friendly bartender kept the pint glass full. Lagunitas Pale was going down like butter.
The hockey games were on the multiple tv ‘s. The locals were cool. I’ll be back.
Order was incomplete, cab cake sliders came without the chips as promised. Food alright, atmosphere good.

Live music, fun people, strong drinks, and a great atmosphere — if you haven’t been to Stan and Joe’s I recommend it for your next outing in Downtown Annapolis.
The inside is pretty large and has a ton of bar room, seating, and area’s to dine. Coming in to watch the game is rather easy with ton’s of large TV’s right behind the bar. The beer selection is decent with a few microdraughts but mainly beers like boh’, Bud lite, Bluemoon are on the tap list … but that’ not a bad thing…
There is an outdoor patio which would make for a great spot for a spring /​summer night to relax and have a drink with friends. The food offering looked good too, I glanced over the menu and pretty much everything is bar food and priced roughly around what you would expect to pay for chicken wings, or a burger.
Overall I like Stan and Joe’s for the experience, which unlike most of the bar’s in Downtown Annapolis aren’t Irish pubs, with a fake ambiance and a pretentious vibe to it; 4 stars!

This review is for the food. Sorely disappointed. Went in around 7:30pm on a Friday night, I guess that might have been my mistake. Bar area was crowded, so I sat far enough away from it that I thought I wouldn’t be bothered. I was wrong. So, so, so loud. Obnoxiously so. If the food was good I’d have no complaint about that.
Got the Annapolitan Sandwich — chicken topped with crab and came with fries. Fries were bad. Pet peeve when you mess up fries. Frozen pieces of junk. Chicken was fairly obviously microwaved — center was approximately 900 degrees while the rest was lukewarm. «Crab» (if it can even be called that) was essentially nonexistent.
Ate maybe half of the meal and bolted. The only reason I might return is to see what some of their drink specials are like.
