Welcome to Olney Ale House!
Welcome to the Olney Ale House, your home away from home. The feel of a traditional Irish pub and the historic American roadhouse come together in a casual yet spirited atmosphere making this place a true “Maryland Tradition.” A gathering place for decades, we have hosted many of the greats; but you are our favorite celebrity. So when visiting us, sit back and enjoy our friendly staff, great fun, our American Classics menu and the area’s best beer collection while you relax and unwind. And don’t forget to loosen your belt, because you’re in for a treat.
***********************************************************
Due to a fire the Ale House closed temporarily in December of last year. The fire was contained to the kitchen and minor damage on the second floor. We were lucky. We immediately began making plans to reopen but the building is a hundred years old and any building plans disappeared decades ago. Our architects and engineers have been measuring, inspecting, evaluating and creating a new set of plans. These are almost ready to be submitted to Montgomery County so they can issue our permits.
We were planning and hoping for an October opening but with the Covis shutdown our opening like everything else will be further delayed. The good news is things have started to move and we will be back. We are looking forward to seeing all of our friends, family and neighbors as soon a possible.
Thank you for your support and please stay safe,
The Olney Ale House Staff
