31-33 E. CROSS ST., (410) 468-4078 AFTER DINNER AT THAI ARROY, my boyfriend and I walked around Federal Hill looking for a place to have a laid-back drink. We stumbled upon Nevin’s in the block encircling Cross Street Market, and found what may be the least Federal Hill-ish bar in the neighborhood—it and Mum’s would probably have to armwrestle to decide the title once and for all. Nevin’s, which won the 2008 City Paper Best of Baltimore Readers Poll for Best Karaoke, feels like the kind of low-key neighborhood dive bar that exists all over this city. The clientele on the night we were there was mostly older—30s and up. We grabbed a seat at the bar and two reasonably, if not admirably, priced beers; a Yuengling ($3.50) and a Blue Moon ($4.50). During the course of our visit, a few guys played pool, two men dominated one of the video poker machines, and a group of women decided to cut the silence by activating the internet jukebox. They played a lot of dated but thoroughly enjoyable pop music—Destiny’s Child, Sean Paul—and danced along. The overall feeling of the place is come in and do what you want, so we did, plunking quarter after quarter into a Megatouch machine until we got a high score in Word Dojo. Not an exciting night out, but one that felt very comfortable. (Anna Ditkoff)
