We were both in the mood for a good hamburger, so off we went to The Rec Room for their 1/2 price Burger Night on Monday. We get to "double dip" as they say - 1/2 price burgers and happy hour. My husband enjoyed a very drinkable glass of Shiraz and a Blue Cheese Burger with onion rings ($2.00 upcharge). The onion rings were large and crisp. I had a good old fashioned cheese burger with their signature French fries. Emilee, as always, took excellent care of us. We enjoyed our dinners.

Such a great time with friends always the go to. Nothing better than Mike letting me in to enjoy myself on a Thursday Friday or Saturday night/day. Long live Rec

Can't speak on the food because we just came here for drinks after eating at the point. The ambiance here is pretty awesome and the outside (covered) area is perfect! They even have an outdoor fireplace! Bartenders were super friendly and drinks were reasonable. Had a DJ (Saturday night) and wasn't overly crowded but had a good amount of people there. I'd definitely come back.

Crowd not very diverse. Drinks cheap, but they're not the best. Two Dj's, one inside and one in the patio section. The patio section is a nice place to get away from all the craziness inside.

On a normal evening of shenanigans with my comrades, the Rec Room in Towson is the perfect spot! Upon entering, I am greeted by the smell of stale beer and hard liquor that only a true college town bar can produce.
As I worked my way towards to back, I notice a very long line at the men's bathroom. Said line, made up entirely of sweaty men in Hawaiian shirts, produce a stench of body odor and dip spit- TRUE to the Rec Room itself.
As you make your way to the back patio, you will see the women's bathroom line. As you pass, you will be greeted by the sobbing tears of Becky. Becky just got dumped by Brad. Marie, Becky's best friend, always hated Brad. She will be screaming loudly about how he "wasn't even worth it!!"
As you enter the back patio, please watch your step, as drunk people are getting frisky in the doorway. As you pad through the crowd of sweaty fraternity gentlemen and old men with light up shoes, you might ask to "rip their Juul".
As you make your way into the back bathroom, please notice the beautiful broken toilet in the men's bathroom. Also, please allow those drunk girls to use the stall. It took them a lot of courage to barge in there.
Finally, you've made it to the back bar. When you finally make your way to the front of the line, treat yourself to a tiger bomb and $2 Coors Light.
Rec Room was the highlight of my 4.5 years at Towson. Every weekend, I would make my way to that front door where Mario would greet me with a smile and a "welcome back, buddy". Rec is by far the best bar in Towson. The bouncers are not only bad asses, but they seriously care about the security of everyone inside. The crowd is friendly, the beer is cold, and the times are good. I cannot speak highly enough about the owners and the legacy they've created in downtown Towson. Oh yeah, and try the chicken tenders and sauce. It's bomb.
