- CCynthiaBaltimore / Maryland •1 review5.0Dined 4 days agoLoch bar has a great outdoor area. We could still hear the live music that was playing (great music), and have a quieter area to talk too!. Our waitress, Demi, provided excellent service. She checked on us an appropriate amount, made suggestions when requested, and was friendly/easy to talk with. When it started raining unexpectedly, she quickly found us dry seats under a house size umbrella. The food was delicious and unique, and the specialty drinks were devine!More infoLoch Bar - Baltimore$$$$• Seafood• Harbor East•4.5
