What User likes about Mcgarvey's:
A lively, enjoyable tavern located near Ego Alley. It can be quite noisy and bustling, so don't expect a peaceful, relaxing evening here. The decor has an English pub vibe, featuring dark tones throughout... View all feedback. What User doesn't like about Mcgarvey's:
The food was just average, and it felt overpriced like many other places. The cream of crab soup resembled a room-temperature pudding rather than being served hot. Overall, everything was mediocre and lacked flavor. I ordered the scampi, but it was too creamy; a proper scampi should have a butter sauce instead. The high ratings for this restaurant must be due to the ambiance—it really is a nice spot. We dined outside... View all feedback.

McGarvey's is a mainstay of the Annapolis area, with great food at reasonable prices and a wonderful atmosphere.
