Dante's

  We were trying to eat dinner here when three non-paying customers barged in and started playing ping pong rather violently just inches from where we were seated. The ball landed in my boyfriend's dinner. Twice.
  
  The food here wasn't bad, but I don't think I'd ever come here again. The bartender seemed more interested in bullshitting with the old men at the bar than providing actual service.

  I'm not a big barfly, but I'm kinda in love with Dante's. I certainly did not expect to find such a gem in a town like Frostburg, but I was pleased nonetheless.
  
  Maybe it's just because I'd ingested an unethical amount of libations on both of my visits there, but the patrons, bartenders and doormen have all been exceptionally friendly and chatty. I dig the live music, the back patio is a plus (who doesn't like drunkenly star-gazing?!), and the art on the walls is always fun to look at. I've yet to try any tasties off the menu, but I'll certainly update if I happen to snack there in the future.
  
  Oh! And best part of Dante's? Drink specials! I was shocked on both of my visits at how low my tab was, and by the selection available.

  The outdoor patio is the best feature! I haven't tried the food but it looks good and is constantly changing to the fresh stuff of the season. I always have a blast when I'm here. Great beer selection. Great specials. One thing that sucks is there's ALWAYS a line for the bathroom. Many a friends have either pissed themselves there waiting or had to run to another bar. Great place to see live music.

  Not a bad dive of a bar.  They had $2.50- 3 Yuengling Drafts with a few other on tap options.  I came here for a show (Cotton Jones) which was pretty good.  The bar area can get a little crowded and give one very little walking room.  The bartenders were good and efficient.  
  I did enjoy the sound and atmosphere here.  I would check this place out for a show.  They have decent bathrooms which is nice (still only one stall).  They also have a pool table and a few places to sit and lean against during the show.

  Dante's is a fantastic little spot we found in Frostburg on Sunday while on our lunch break from the Western Maryland Scenic Railroad ride from Cumberland.  Our meal of clear-broth corn chowder, hummus and panini was quite satisfying.  The music was supplied by a stack of old LPs behind the bar.  Great bartender, great beer (Troeg's) on tap.  Lots of interesting artwork on the walls.  Free of pretention.  You can tell Dante's is a DIY place that is living up to its mission.  We can't wait to go back to see some live music, including Cumberland's own Cotton Jones.

  Cheap beer and good music (sometimes). What else could you ask for?
