Hi all,

My girlfriend and I, early 20s, are moving to Mt. Vernon in a week or so near St.Paul & Read st.

We've been doing a lot of walking around the area to get comfortable with it, and I wanted to get some recommendations on the best nightlife & restaurants in the area. We'd like to find some of the more popular areas so we can go out and meet people, make friends, etc. with others in the area.

Are there any popular bars/clubs actually in Mt. Vernon? Or is most of the popular nightlife in the Fells/Fed Hill areas? Do you guys know how much cabs normally cost from those areas back to Mt. Vernon?


Thank you all in advance!

The bar scene in Mt. Vernon is definitely more subdued and more spread out than Fells Point or Federal Hill, but there are a few fun spots.

Midtown Yacht Club is now Midtown BBQ and Brew. I haven't been there since the name change, but the Yacht Club was always one of my favorites. Mick O'Sheas is another nice bar, and there's a sports bar closer to Penn Station called Turp's that seems to usually attract a nice crowd. Brewer's Art has been rated one of the best bars in the country (http://www.esquire.com/bestbars/), and I've got to agree.

There are also a number of clubs/lounges in the area (Red Maple, Dionysius, the Hippo), but that's not my scene.

A cab to Federal Hill would probably cost between $5-$7. You could also take the Purple Line of the circulator if it's early enough in the evening, or take the #64 bus. A cab to Fells Point would likely cost a little more due to traffic downtown.
