Let's just call former talent promoter Bill Bateman Baltimore's king of chicken wings. That's how good these are. All 14 versions of them. Meaty, crisp, never greasy, and graded according to firepower from demure to demonic, these are flightless wonders. The ribs are pretty good, too. As are the multitudinous sandwiches and quesadillas and all manner of other light fare, aptly supported by the line-up of microbrew taps behind the bar. Some locations have pool tables, but all have banks of sports-tuned televisions that draw a raucous game-time crowd. Co-eds hang out at the Towson branch; Clarksville is a bit more upscale. But easy-going good times are pretty much on tap all around.

    The food here has been going downhill since the location at Harford and Cub Hill. It was good food back then. Bill Bateman needs to stop putting pictures of himself on everything and concentate on his product. Won't let my dog eat there now & i'm referring to several locations I visited.

    Unfortunately, I have to agree with what others are saying. I live locally and this used to be a great place to have a meal. The quality of the food and service has gone down over the years.

    To even quilify for the title of best burger, it has to be fresh ground beef and hand ptted. Bateman,s is neither. Enough said.
