The Dugout Tavern — Restaurant in Maryland

Firstly, I'm in the United States Navy. My initial interaction with the establishment was cool but slowly the true colors of this establishment showed. Tonight is the 17th of August 2018 and I have literally experienced the most disrespect that I've ever received in 13 yrs of being in the military. This story began with a long night of drinking and a semi conscious mindset of not wanting to drive in this mindset. This spans back to a entire month ago. I entered this establishment and drank entirely too much. Upon the acknowledgment of this I decided not to drive. My next decision was to sleep it off in my car. My car is a 2014 Mustang GT and it happens to be quite loud at idle so I didn't start the vehicle. I tossed the keys in the passenger seat and took a nap. While taking this nap (15mins) I was awaken by Dawn, a lankey dirty blonde, and she requested that I leave. Upon leaving and still drunk, I deceided to never come back there again. Now to fast forward to present day and time......... I went back there. Upon entering, I was greeted as "BLACK ALLEN" and the hostility followed. The question was asked..... " why haven't you been here in a while" and I honestly answered. My last interaction here was not pleasant. I was asked to do something that could have killed people. (drive away) After hearing this situation the Bartenders bombarded me with insults. I was barred out of this establishment by Tonya,(the person that gave me the name of BLACK ALLEN) and they threatened to have me forcefully removed. I serve this country. I've done it for 13yrs. I still do it honorably. BLACK ALLEN...... Uncalled for.. I did nothing but tell the truth. They asked why I didn't come and I told the truth. If I can sleep off, peacefully, what I've consumed, then I shouldn't be there. This establishment will falsely show their true colors. If you are Black..... Do not come here. The true colors of this...

This is a tiny neighborhood type bar & grill with occasional live music that is waaaaaay off the beaten path on Bird River Grove Road in Whitemarsh MD off Route 40/Ebenezer Road. I was there strictly for nostalgic reasons: I was born in Baltimore city near Greenmount cemetary but reside in Harford County/Bel Air now; however, when I was very young in the 1950's my parents and I and 4 other siblings spent our entire summers in a simple unfinished (no plumbing so we used an outhouse but it felt like camping) concrete block house on that road I have fond mrmories of biking, swimming, fishing, seining and crabbing every summer day on that great-only-for-kids-muddy-whitemarshy river. Periodically, if I am in that area, I drive down that road trying to find the house we once lived in but it has changed so drastically (with 2 new houses built on 2 of the 3 lots we owned that had not been assigned an address back then... just Lot numbers!) I stopped by the Dugout to talk to any older neighborhood patrons who could enlighren my search but I was unsuccessful. Everyone was friendly but no one I talked to lived on that road whuch indicates that good food has to be the draw. I was there less than a half hour snd did not eat or drink while there. It is a small place with tables & chairs for dining and a bar area and at approximately 7:30 pm was not...

I was out running errands and instead of going for fast food or other popular restaurants, I went to this bar because they had corned beef and cabbage on St Patrick's day which was awesome so I tried their spaghetti and meat sauce. It took a while to get waited on, food was was good. The sides they listed on menu board were extra cost and do not come with your meal which I thought was odd. They didn't have any parmesan cheese for my meal which I missed having. They have plenty of tv's to watch the O's. Pool tables,shuffleboard, several beers on tap. I will go back because I try to support local bussinesses. I think I caught them on an off day thus the reason I...
