Downtown Frederick is a great place to swing through on a nice weekend and get hammered drunk.

Before you head downtown, I highly recommend taking the Saturday Brewery Tour at Flying Dog Brewery. Doors open at 1:30, with tours at 2 and 3pm. A $5 pint glass gets you all you can drink while you're there. When I went, there were several groups that didn't take the tour, just drank the beer.

Best places to sit outside would be Brewer's Alley, La Paz Mexican Restaurant, and The Greene Turtle. La Paz and Greene Turtle are next door to each other, and Brewer's Alley is a few blocks up. Across the alley is Griff's Landing, while they do have outdoor seating, it's smaller than the other places, but just as quaint. Don't eat at La Paz...food's awful, but they have the best outdoor patio in downtown.

Best places to get hammered include those 4 outdoor places plus Canal Bar and Grill (also near La Paz and Greene Turtle) and Olde Town Tavern (3 blocks north of Brewer's, usually have good bands playing Friday and Saturday night). If you are into hookah, Mirage Cafe & Grill is a block south of Olde Town...

If you are into Italian, go see my buddy Cooper at Il Porto at the corner of Market and South, on the south end of downtown. Great food at good prices. I recommend the white pizza, fried zucchini and anything off their entree menu.
