I love this bar! Mark the bartender is the absolute best! I would come here every day if it didn’t make me an alcoholic! :)

Been visiting the Canton Liquor House when I come to fells point each year. It’s a great bar that you are treated like family. If you are within a short drive of this great local bar be sure to make a stop.

Customers beware! As a local once told me: «this place is worse than the Star Wars bar on tatooine». If you make it out of here without getting your arm cut off, or a very drunk bartender yelling incoherently at you, consider yourself lucky. Also, be prepared for fights to start for no reason — good luck and good night.

One of the best true neighborhood bars in the Canton /Fells Point area. The owners, Mark and Donna, always make you feel welcome and are sure to have fun!

Donna’s House of Pain(AKA Canton Liquor House) is an East Baltimore oasis of personality and great service. The liquor selection is small but well thought out and you will accomplish your goal. If you drink to forget. just pay in advance or let them run the tab on a card. Where the oasis comes in is the regulars. You will have to seach long and hard to find a more welcoming group. Dominoes your passion? Come early and challenge Julio. I could write more but come visit for yourself and be amazed! *And the drinks are Baltimore-priced*

Fun jukebox, great prices, neighborhood feel. And hands down the best women’s bathroom in town!

Well I eventually stopped going to this place so I have no clue what goes on there anymore. However… in 2009 it was a friendly and clean place to go.

I absolutely agree with Eric W. This place was cool years ago but has become sketchy. You have to think twice about a five star review that warns you not to ask for water at a bar if you’re not a regular. Seriously. That actually sums up the strange mentality of the place quite well. Canton Liquor House is unfortunately a few blocks from me. I have stopped by a few times recently and tried to give it a chance again. I’ve noticed that out-of-towners really are not treated well, especially late at night. There seems to be some kind of immature game going on with people who never grew out of their middle school bullying phase. The owner and her boyfriend bartender must either be in denial or clueless about the drug use and rowdiness/fighting that some of the regulars are engaging in. Must be hard to manage a drinking establishment and keep things safe when you’re completely wasted yourself. I recently witnessed the bartender blame the wrong person for a fight and allow the person who clearly instigated it to remain in the bar. This is the only place in my immediate neighborhood I wish weren’t there. In terms of the beverages themselves, don’t ask for a gin martini. You’ll get a gin and tonic. Every time. Or maybe it was just because I’m not in the new«regular» cult. What happens to non-regulars who ask for water, Katie? Please expand on how you can give a place five stars when you have to include this warning. I don’t pretend to know exactly what is going on with this place that has made its culture deteriorate over the years, but I know it’s strange, and I know I won’t be back.

Like most regulars of this bar, I eventually stopped coming here altogether. This used to be a fun place with a lot of good people wanting to relax and have a good time. Sadly, it’s deteriorated significantly over the past couple years. Gone are the days when locals would gather to laugh the night away and drink strong drinks for a good price. You know those guys in college who would show up to parties and be so unable to hold their alcohol that their drunken instability ruined the party for everyone else? Well the Canton Liquor House is the place where those guys go to spend their middle aged years. The owner rarely shows up in the evenings, and when she does it’s usually to yell at her boyfriend, who bar tends most nights and is also usually the drunkest person in the bar. It’s a place you really want to like, but over the last year or two it’s proven to have more fist fights and drama than good times. If you’re looking for a good dive bar in the neighborhood try almost any of the places in Upper Fells.
