A lively local sports bar with unusually broad comfort-food choices, standout pizza and a strong patio, but service consistency, noise, cleanliness, and occasional serious complaint reports make timing important.
Remington's delivers solid food quality anchored by reliable pizza, wings, and burgers that earn repeat visits, but inconsistent execution across shifts and menu items prevents a stronger showing. Friendly service shines during well-staffed periods, though busy nights expose gaps in attentiveness and knowledge. The sports-bar setting appeals to locals and regulars, yet lacks the polish or distinctive character to elevate it beyond a dependable casual destination.
Remington's is a lively Beltsville neighborhood sports bar that has grown beyond its former-dive-bar reputation. The draw is social rather than hushed: games, sports, music, a substantial patio, fire pit, and regulars who seem to know the room. One happy customer summed up the appeal as a place with “good food, good laughs, good drinks, and good service,” though the same energy can become loud and occasionally chaotic. The kitchen leans into broad American bar-and-grill comfort food, with pizza as the clearest calling card. Specialty pies, wings, nachos, dips, burgers, tacos, fajitas, seafood, and brisket give groups plenty to negotiate over, and the current menu confirms moderate pricing for most items. It is creative in its mash-up combinations rather than refined or experimental: butter chicken, brisket, Buffalo, pesto, and seafood show up in familiar casual formats. Quality is often praised, but cold pizza, overcooked seafood, bland happy-hour dishes, and inconsistent execution appear in the critical sample. Families can make it work, especially earlier in the day or in the covered outdoor area, and the menu offers approachable choices such as pizza, tenders, burgers, fries, quesadillas, lasagna, and mac and cheese. One group successfully brought teenagers and another accommodated ten people outdoors. Still, the loud music, bar-centered atmosphere, and late-night crowd mean it is not the easiest choice for a quiet family dinner; picky eaters should stick to the straightforward comfort-food items.

The specialty pizzas are the clearest draw, but the wings, brisket, and comfort-food plates offer other strong directions.
Go for the social energy and patio, but plan around loud music, uneven service, parking limits, and a bill worth checking carefully.
The patio, fire pit, games, and sports create a strong hangout atmosphere, though the energy can get loud enough to overwhelm conversation.
