Bill Bateman's Bistro is a great place to grab a drink and watch the game. With a strong following in the community, many local regulars frequent this restaurant and the atmosphere is very friendly. There are plenty of seats and several big screen televisions over the bar. The menu offers a little of everything from bar food to
seafood.
Although this is a chain restaurant, it has local roots. The first Bill Bateman's Bistro opened in 1987 along Hartford Road in Baltimore County. Since then, the franchise has grown substantially with locations all over the state and a line of specialty sauces sold in grocery stores. There are always drink and food specials offered here which makes many of the items on the menu quite affordable.
