Even though we aren’t an Irish bar, this place is owned and operated by an Irishman…so we are gonna celebrate as if we are the biggest and bestest IRISH BAR in Arbutus! We have Guinness, Smithwicks, Bushmills, Jamesons, Irish Mist and more. No other bar around these parts can claim the same. DJ O’Remedy will be spinning Irish ditties and huge dishes of corned beef and hash will be flying through the restaurant and concert pavilion. Free trinkets, t-shirts, hats and what-not will be given out to those with the most Irish Spirit. All green draft beers are 2 bucks, too. See you at the HEAD!
St.Patrick’s Day Party
March 16th, 2012The Ravens
October 25th, 2011Quothe the Raven Fan – “What the hell is going on with this team?” Even the diehard fans are skeptics these days. Not a cheap-ass bucket of beers or the awesome Baby Back Ribs on Special could make me (or anyone else) feel any better about this confounding team! I know, I know, we’re 5-2. Shut the hell up! We ain’t goin to the playoffs with Cam at the wheel people. It’s time we take action and do a OWS on the Castle…Let’s do a OBC (Occupy Bisciotti’s Castle) until Cam is GONE! AMEN! HALLELUJAH!
Autumn is upon us come hell or high water!
September 7th, 2011Now that Autumn is almost upon us, the mornings are cooler so my OLD BAY Bloody Mary stays colder longer. The afternoons are still sunny and warm though, which makes for a great time watching my favorite college football teams play pinball with their bodies while I hold on tightly to my Black and Blue pint o’ beer (how fitting, eh?). The chilluns are off to school so I can stick around here at the bar longer and hang with the folks while snapping back a few 16oz. Margaritas – fresh from the OASIS machine no less. We just got in a orange juicer to make fresh squeezed ORANGE CRUSHES, too….yummmmmy SOB’s they are! I’m going to hang on to that Summer breeze in the evenings as long as I can though – it’s my all time favorite time of the day in my all time favorite time of the year- because it still depresses me to think that I will soon no longer be able to hang out on our Garden Oasis Deck here at Fish Head and just relax and enjoy the company of my customers, the sweet alcoholic libations, and the smells of my cook’s special of the day wafting out over us all.
Autumn and Winter are my favorite times of year to drink good dark draft beers and oakey, aged scotch or bourbon. Don’t exactly know why that is, but it seems to give me a better frame of mind seeing as I really, really HATE to be cold! So bring on my beloved RAVENS, my alma mater TERPS teams, the English Premier League soccer matches, my stinky sweaters, my comfortable lounger in front of a tiny ass flat screen TV - it’s all good in the end, because I know Summer will come again and life will soon again feel as light as the beach sand tightly packed up my ass! Now that’s an image you probably didn’t really need to think about at this juncture, did you? Fuck if I care…

Whats on TAP at Fish Head?
March 30th, 2011The next time you stop into the Fish Head Cantina take a minute to notice our new beer tap system. We have a brand new state-of-the-art draft process that keeps the beer colder and allows us to serve 12 different beers of varying styles and tastes. In other words, you can make every visit a new draft experience with the additions of two of Ireland’s best; Guinness Stout and Smithwick’s. We also have brought old Baltimore into the Fish Head with the traditional Oriole game companion, Natty Boh, hun.
Don’t worry that we have neglected the bottle beer and liquor portion of our client tastes. We have several new bottle beer additions on the way with the first being the incredible Shock Top Raspberry Wheat. Perfect for a hot summer day or just a cool spring night. also, ask your favorite bartender to pour you a Wild Turkey American Honey drink or a margarita with Herradura Tequila.
Come into the Fish Head Cantina to see what else is new or just to enjoy the great atmosphere which is still as fun as ever.
Think Spring!
Spring has sprung at the Fish Head!
March 22nd, 2011The weather has turned towards summer and the Fish Head has turned towards outdoor dining and parties. We have opened our deck for lunch, dinner, happy hours, listening to live music on the pavilion stage or just hanging out in the outdoors.

Fish Head wearin’ of the green!
March 15th, 2011This Thursday, March 17th, is even more of a reason to stop by the Fish Head. We celebrate from open to close in the proudest tradition of every IrishAmerican (and even those who have no Irish in them at all).
All day and until 10pm we have the following incredible St. Patrick’s Day specials:
$2 Green Beer Drafts
$3 Guinness Bottles
$4 Jameson & Bushmills Shots
$5 Irish Car Bombs

After 10pm we have our popular 2 for 1 drink special!
Come in all day or stop by several times to hear Irish tunes, have a stout and taste some IrishAmerican food. You don’t have to be Irish to enjoy St. Patrick’s Day, you just have to enjoy having a good time like the Irish do.
One small blog for man, one kickass cantina for mankind!
March 9th, 2011The Fish Head Cantina is open for food, drink, dancing and now blogging.
We have alot to say and even more to show the world but we think its best understood if you experience The Fish Head in person. Stop by for lunch and try our incredible wraps, crab cakes and other eats. Come in for dinner to play pool and have a great Happy Hour experience. Stick around for the best bands in Baltimore or dance to the sounds of the top DJs while sampling the beer selections from our brand new draft beer tap system.
