Dutch Courage

Neighborhood gem. Food and service were terrific. Nice outdoor patio.

Took my girlfriend for a birthday dinner and everything was fantastic, from the reservation process to the ambience to the attentive service. Food and cocktails were delicious and very unique - will definitely be back. Thank you!

My husband and I love Dutch Courage! We bring our out-of-town visitors here to impress them. The service is consistently excellent and makes you feel special. It’s the kind of place where you can order anything and be certain it will be delicious. The space is also beautiful and the music is always great. It’s fine dining, without the pretense.

I love gin and this place was heaven for a Gin lover! Also have lots of great drinks for those who love other alcoholic drinks. The waitperson was very knowledgeable and brought us a flight of gins that were delicious. We ended up buying 2 of the bottles. Happy hour is a great deal but it’s a limited selection. We should have stayed to try the food but that’s for next time!

Cool spot! Drinks and food were good. Atmosphere was ok.

Cocktails were good, the food was just OK. My wife’s food came out too early, and mine didn’t come out until much later. Our water pitcher never got refilled, and the server just asked us to agree that things were good. I would not have been as miffed if hadn’t been expensive.

Such a great back patio to chill & have some fantastic hand crafted cocktails.

We sat on the lovely covered patio. Our first time there. We had been wanting to check it out since we first saw it in Fall of 2020, and it exceeded our expectations.

Dutch Courage nails it again. Always a great place for inventive drinks for any taste and delicious food, attentive service, and strong adherence to covid protocol.

Keep up the good work!

Another excellent visit to Dutch Courage with excellent food and drinks, as well as owners who actually care about their customers.

One of my first dine in experiences in a year and it was perfect! The outside area is adorable, and there were heaters to keep things comfy after sundown. Table service was attentive & quick. Cocktails were great. The food was from a pop up, but also great!

Loved everything about Dutch courage! Just a great vibe. The thick crust pizza is amazing!!!!!

Big shout out to Phil! Thanks for taking care of us.

We live in the neighborhood, and are beginning to venture out for treats, now that we're fully vaccinated. Friends had recommended Dutch Courage to us, and we were very impressed -- not only with the snacks and cocktails (the daiquiri and Jefferson Sour were delicious), but with the spirit and ambiance of the business, which has not only survived, but found an appealing niche during the pandemic. Shout-out to Kim, our bartender, who took the time to answer my question about the extraordinary and varied glassware (I peeked at every table) purchased by the owners in flea markets and antique shops. The back garden seating area is lovely, too. We'll be back soon.

My friends and I met up for a post pandemic get together- first time since 2020!! We had Pat Turner as our server and he was so helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly! I brought my menu home to share with my roommates and cannot wait to come back!

We had the best time! The bar is being extremely covid conscious still. Be sure to make a reservation for the size of your party. The service was excellent, as were the drinks and the food.

The only thing that I would suggest is that they make an option for bigger plates. I would’ve been happy to pay for a larger tuna plate option. If we had been ordering only small plates and sharing them, the size would’ve been OK. But my husband had a sandwich and I ordered the tuna plate, and it was really not sufficient for me.

The staff were knowledgeable and friendly. Outside dining space was lovely. We had a great time and would definitely return.

Dutch Courage is a breath of fresh air in the Baltimore food scene. Our server, Kim, was attentive and knowledgeable about their eclectic drink menu. We did not eat, but they had light fare finger food that I’d imagine pairs well with your cocktail of choice! They have certainly created an inviting neighborhoody atmosphere with an original cocktail menu. We will be back!

My partner and I loved it here. A variety of great seating options and creative cocktails. The hot ham and cheese was dang-near perfect. Everyone on staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Recommend sitting on the sidewalk cafe-style tables on W 23rd if you're into that sort of thing. Definitely coming back.

Cocktails are always wonderful and the beef carpaccio was delicious.

Service was excellent! Servers were very knowledgeable, and helpful when making a selection. Drinks were fantastic! Maybe I should have gotten something other than the Kale salad; next time. Beautiful outdoor dining space!

Fantastic cocktails served in vintage glasses added to the ambiance. Food was great and service spot on. Will be back.

Nice spot on North Charles for cocktails and light fare. The patio is very inviting with planters full of flowers and herbs.

Excellent dining experience! Very friendly, accommodating staff, delicious food, and lovely setting. We will definitely return.

Great place for cocktails and snacks/light dinner! Can't wait to come back for their summer cocktails. Patio was lovely. Service was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Bottle shop had great gin and other spirits available as well.

Always a great place for tasty food and great drinks!

We loved the set up in the back area outside the restaurant. Will definitely go back. Nice to see Covid protocols being taken seriously.

Fabulous and adventurous drink menu, tasty snacks and wonderful service!

I love the outdoor seating at Dutch Courage, and I appreciate the effort to seat us at the driest table possible despite all of the rain!
The cocktails are amazing, I would say that the food options seem really pricey: I was surprised that the olives were $8 and we only received a small dish, not quite worth the cost.

Lovely cocktails and atmosphere. Felt safe with COVID protocols . Wait staff wonderful ! We will be back

What a great place to safely enjoy company over exquisite cocktails! So grateful to have this spot in the neighborhood!

I was delighted by my experience at Dutch Courage. The cocktails were well balanced, the spirit selection was impressive, the food was delicious, the service was friendly, the space was lovely, and their COVID precautions were reassuring.

A GEM! Inspired cocktails, friendly atmosphere, SAFE protocols and an overall great time!

Lovely birthday celebration with delicious cocktails and an attentive, charming and knowledgeable server!

Interesting drinks! The food was a little over priced, but delicious. Would go back again!

Amazing food and cocktails — highly recommend! As a gin lover (have 50+ different gins in my collection) when I discovered a gin bar opened up near me I was over joyed!

We loved everything! The drinks are phenomenal, food was delicious, and service was on point. Love the patio they’ve created at Dutch Courage and can’t wait to come back!

Excellent cocktails at very reasonable prices. Knowledgeable servers who really understand the drinks. COVID-19 protocols carefully followed. Kind and friendly servers who are not overly familiar. Large patio with a tent in case of rain. Single-stall, gender-neutral restrooms. Fantastic music at just the right volume. Felt welcoming.

Terrific outdoor dining experience. Couldn't ask for more. Great food, friendly service, and terrific drink selection. Being able to specify outdoor dining in the reservation made me really confident about my booking and experience during this adjustment period. Will definitely be back, because I need to check out the bottle bar!
