Here at Checkerspot, our top priority is the health and safety of our customers, co-workers and community. We are open for outdoor seating and there is plenty of space outside to spread out, socially distance and enjoy some beers in the shade and fresh air out front or across the street under 395. Heaters are available.

Indoor seating is available at 25% capacity on the 2nd floor. Please ask the bartender for a table and we'll take care of you. We do have a big screen and second TV in the upstairs space.

Anyone entering the taproom must wear a face mask at all times and maintain at least 6ft distance from others (as marked on the floor). You must order from behind the plexiglass and the bartender will sanitize everything in between customers. If you are standing, your facemask must be on.

We offer pints, cans and crowlers for carryout. If you’re looking to fill up a used Checkerspot growler, you will not get your same actual growler back when you come to refill. We will give you a new one that has been thoroughly cleaned and sanitized.

Tables and chairs set up inside & outside maintain safe distancing of more than 6ft. If setting up your area outside, please maintain 6ft distance from others not in your household. We encourage you bring your own chair (BYOC)!

Tables are limited to 1 hour occupancy as per Baltimore City order and we will have a log at the front for COVID tracking.

We are dog friendly (must be leashed) and kid friendly (children must be with an adult). No dogs allowed on the 2nd floor.

We’re proud to bring you an array of small-batch, thoughtfully crafted beers–inspired by nature, but served right here in Baltimore, the city we love. We will all get through this together!

The Baltimore Checkerspot is the Maryland state butterfly, which embodies our belief that without local appreciation, nature, and quality ingredients, great beer does not exist.

There’s something for everyone here!
