Union Collective in Hampden, Baltimore is fun for all.

Union Collective is where it’s at if you want to find a wide-open space where you can stop in for a beer, some pizza... ice cream, rock climbing, coffee, live music… just about everything that’s fun.  

The 155,000 square foot renovated warehouse space rests comfortably just outside Hampden and has something for everyone.  The space is anchored by Union Craft Brewing’s taphouse where you’ll find friendly service and delicious beers brewed onsite.  The space is wide open accommodates large parties or active families (no one under 21 after 6 pm please. That’s their “Adult Swim”).  

There’s also an outside beer garden that’s, even more, kid-friendly and is a great place to enjoy nicer weather. Food is available (and exceptional) by Well Crafted Kitchen located inside the Union space. While they offer some traditional beer accompaniments they also feature specials on a rotating basis that are typically made with locally sourced ingredients. Check the menu there or online on any given day to see what’s cooking. Outside food is not welcome unless it’s a birthday cake. Everyone loves cake.

Kids and grown-ups alike can enjoy the chill-out area where you can find free skee ball and shuffle bowling machines as well as some cozy couches where you can take a load off.  There’s even an old camper trailer they’ve repurposed as a photo booth. The brewing facility offers free tours at 1:30 pm, 2:30 pm and 3:30 pm on Saturdays. No sign up required!

When you’re feeling adventurous just take a stroll around the building and stop into The Charmery for some locally made ice cream.  Sure there’s Chocolate and Vanilla, but maybe you’re in the mood for Old Bay caramel or vegan toasted coconut. The Charmery won’t disappoint.

The Baltimore Spirits Company is right around the corner offering tastings and spirits for sale by the bottle. 

Need a pick-me-up?  Vent Coffee Roasters has you covered with their heavenly brews.

If you’re feeling up to a bit of a workout and haven’t overindulged on ice cream or beer, be sure to check out Earth Treks for rock climbing, yoga or some other cardio-based training programs.

Our work in Baltimore is truly a family affair. Husband and wife, Matt and Katie, work together to head up our ambassador team in Charm City. Katie is a Maryland native and has lived in the state her whole life. She moved to Baltimore in 2007 after graduating from the University of Maryland, College Park with a bachelor's degree in early childhood education. She has been working in the field of early childhood education as a teacher and family coach for the past 12 years. Katie also holds a Masters of Education in Literacy from Loyola University. She is passionate about giving kids and families the knowledge and tools that they need to thrive. Matt grew up in the Highlandtown neighborhood of Baltimore. As a city native, Matt is a great resource on all that the city has to offer. After months of helping Katie explore the city for her role at a Happy Active Family, he decided to put his love of writing to use and officially come on board as an ambassador. Matt and Katie have two girls, ages 5 and 7. They spend their weekends camping, hiking, or exploring other hidden gems in their area. Tap into their insider knowledge by downloading the app today!
