The bartender knew his beers, but he was not so informed about the menu. Some pros about the place: +Service is pretty good. Three hours later (yeah, that deep), when all of the Olympic competitive walkers had finished their televised race, we left the dimly lit bar to find our car parked beside a few jet-skis, some parts from an old pick-up truck, and a sign with a pirate greeting. The bartender did his best to contribute, but he mostly left us to our argumentative devices. No one was there on a Saturday afternoon, so we quickly entered into the loudest discussion of deep topics. Walking into the restaurant, you will find what you undoubtedly expect from a place that calls itself a "pirate bar": pirate decor, pirate sayings (see Men's bathroom), pirate themes, pirate smells, pirate rules, pirate drinks.even pirate patches (okay, that was our contribution.). Several double takes and turnarounds later, we found it.plopped right smack dab in a typical Glen Burnie neighborhood. After finishing our tour of Heavy Seas Brewery in Halethorpe (where our decision to visit Mutiny was confirmed by the tour guide, who informed us that the bar had several casks at the bar), we made our way to Glen Burnie to find the bar. She passed on the cocktail and was able to finish it all and most of the great fries.I had read a mainly positive review of this place a few weeks back in the Baltimore Sun, and after eating at Iron Bridge (an associated restaurant) last week, I decided to give it a try since my friends and I were heading to what we thought was the area in which the restaurant was located. Sandwich-bacon, fried eggs, lettuce and tomato on grilled toast with a jalapeno pepper mayo-which she highly recommends. I took home most of the beans and two of the tacos-enough breakfast for two more days. Each taco contained smoked applewood bacon, cheddar cheese and soft scrambled egg wrapped in a tortilla. The Bloody was almost a meal in itself and I could only get through one of the three Breakfast Tacos. Drink service was a little slow but worth the wait. My only real complaint was that there was too much ice in the glass. Pieces of crab meat settled to the bottom and were irretrievable. (The menu listed pepperoni but the cheese had been substituted.) It tasted great but it would have been more enjoyable and easier to eat if the crab meat would have been lump or a shrimp substituted for it. A bacon strip was stuck in the tall glass which was topped with a tablespoon of regular crab meat and slices of jack cheese. The Bloody Mary was served with a foot-long fresh celery stick in a very thick, overflowing, garlic infused, perfectly spiced. I have had their "Drag it through the Garden" Bloody Mary the last time, but this time I went for the "Meat Lovers" Bloody Mary. We almost didn’t get to eat here because it is small and with limited capacity due to COVID we were lucky enough to get a table but with a time limit put on our stay. The only way we knew about it was from our daughter and the couple sitting near us. I think every server should start with explaining that cool way to try all their rums along with earning great free food options in their infamous red envelopes. I add this info because if we lived closer we probably would give this spot another try and we would definitely work on the rum passport. Her and her husband are locals but we live out of town. My husband loves rum and our daughter highly recommend it. They had a dessert tower that seemed intriguing. I wanted to try their desserts but was too full. Their Happy Hour drink and food menu was definitely priced fairly along with the variety of food to choose from. The rum and watermelon mojito were great and being able to get them at a happy hour price was even better. It also had hardly anything on it, meat wise. The flavor combination on the Cuban Reuben just did not work. We tried the Bucket of fries, the Moby pickles and the Cuban Reuben. If you aren’t coming for the rum or other drinks then in my opinion you may be disappointed.
