Sunday review preview -- Slainte

slainteSlainte in Fells Point gets reviewed  this Sunday's paper.

Last month, media members and food bloggers were invited to try out some of executive chef Bill Crouse's new menu items, and the word "gastropub" appeared in some of the coverage of that tasting event.

I took that as a signal that Slainte, which opened in 2004, was ready for a check-up.

Gastropub? Lol, Is that what they are calling over-priced mediocre food? If you want to watch soccer, this is the place to go, it is not however a foodie destination.


Couldn't agree more Trisha. You said it all. Slainte and Gastropub should never be used in the same sentence.

Uncool, McFinn. The other pubs will beat up Slainte now.

I've never been a fan of the three dollar cup of coffee.
