Reviews

"Highland Local in Highland, MD, is a true gem in the community. This charming spot has won my heart with its incredible staff and the welcoming atmosphere that makes every visit special. A standout feature of this wonderful establishment is the owner, Jen, whose passion and warmth are evident in every aspect of the experience. She's truly incredible, and I miss her presence whenever I'm away."

"Second time visiting, this time for dinner on a Sunday night. The dining and bar space is always clean and straightforward, which I like. Our server Brian was very nice and helpful with menu suggestions. Beer menu as usual is robust and interesting. Food was great. We ended up getting the goat cheese and mushroom quesadilla along with the chicken salad. Definitely will be back again."

"Highland Local is a comfy pub-style restaurant with an interesting menu of regular items and specials. Brian was bartending and waiting on tables the night we were first there and he was exceptional! Melissa is also a great server. We specially like the pierogi, quesadillas, cheeseburgers, and their Simple Salad with steak. How nice it is to have a good meal at a restaurant where everyone is kind and cares about your experience. Super friendly staff and yummy food will keep us coming back!"

"Love it here. My husband has been a fan of their beer for many years and we used to go to the Baltimore location once upon a time. The food is really good. We love the garlic rosemary fries! They also have tasty sandwiches, fish and chips, burgers, and really good wings. I finally tried the salmon and it was perfect! There is also a little wine selection which works for me. They have indoor and outdoor seating. But the icing on the cake is the service. Always so warm and friendly. The servers all take their time and try to make more of a connection. We have kids and they make exceptions and go the extra mile to satisfy. Please go, you won't be disappointed!"

"Hey everyone! Note: Dog-friendly! Water bowls and plenty of outside for your furry friend. This is tucked away in the back of a shopping center and a little hard to find but this is a cute gem that is absolutely making it into our normal rotation. They have a nice patio in front and on the side with heaters and TVs!!. I can envision the acoustic band playing in the corner - and the bartender shared with me that they are looking to add more entertainment."
