About This Spot

Stepping into Cat’s Eye Pub is like slipping into a familiar rhythm — the kind that hums quietly but steadily, inviting you to unwind and settle in. Nestled in the heart of Baltimore’s Fells Point, this lively bar embraces you with the warmth of a local gathering spot where live music is the backdrop to genuine moments and easy conversation. The pace is unhurried yet vibrant, a space that comfortably balances the buzz of energetic performances with the comfort of friendly faces and familiar corners.

The atmosphere here carries the spirited charm of a classic Irish pub, unfussy and welcoming without pretense. When night falls, the music gently takes center stage, creating a seamless thread that pulls everyone closer — whether you’re holding a quiet drink on the patio or standing near the bar exchanging stories. It’s the kind of place where staff and regulars alike feel like part of the same extended family, their warmth echoing in the way the owner moves behind the bar, greeting old friends and newcomers alike.

While the menu leans into local flavors that nod to Baltimore’s maritime roots — think fresh crab that tastes like a small celebration — it’s the drinks and shared experiences that truly shine. Here, the focus isn’t on a flashy menu but on the simple joy of good company paired with a soundtrack that starts early and often lingers late into the night.

Whether you’re winding down with a quiet afternoon drink or swept up in the spontaneous energy of live tunes and clinking glasses, Cat’s Eye Pub offers an atmosphere that feels timeless and unfiltered. It’s a place to be seen, to listen, and most importantly, to feel at home in the pulse of the neighborhood.

This place is the absolute best. Our conference had about 20 people go on a Wednesday night and the music and atmosphere were awesome. The owner was working behind the bar and was so welcoming and fun. Highly recommend for a great time!

Great place and live music. The only caveat is that the bar is shaped unfortunately for the stage placement, and the sound can be a bit weird depending on where you are standing. Staff is super nice, and the outside patio area is super convenient!

Some of the depictions of this place are disingenuous, bordering on thinking that it's some sort of sleaze joint.. it's not. That would be the Mount Royal Tavern Is Cats Eye packed? Yes it is Is the music always good? Yes it is And the music starts early and ends late... One of the few places down there that still does that. I might note, and could be wrong - but I believe this establishment location is the oldest tavern in Baltimore / Fells point. Humorously, it is noted that many barks and brigantines were built in Fells Point that actually became the terror of the Caribbean several hundred years ago, when England and France were at it. Yep. We here in Baltimore? We are the original Pirates of the Caribbean And yes, I do honestly believe that there are ghosts in Fells Point...

My friends and I frequent here. Such great staff and live music most nights. The vibe is like being at a house party with close friends. Morgan was sure to show us a great time. He was an awesome host and treated us like family. I would highly recommend coming here if you are looking for something to do in Fells Point. Great drinks, better times!

Went to Maryland to visit my daughter and this was one of my top three favorite new places that I found. We'll definitely go back every time I visit. The band was absolutely amazing, the owner was super friendly and nice and, even though they were packed, the service was good. I absolutely love their mascot and the historic area that they are in.

Great bar for music. Lively conversation with locals and bar tenders were fantastic! Shout out to Mama Jen. They also provide a dispenser of ice cold water. Wonderful idea

I first came here in 2008, while I was staying in Baltimore for a month for a work project. It quickly became my favorite place. Whenever I stop in Baltimore now, I come here to check out a band. Great place, great vibe great music, and great employees! You can tell that Morgan really cares about the place and the people that work there! A hidden gem for sure!
