The 49 best pet-friendly places and activities in Baltimore

I’m from the Carolinas, so I’ve been in search of BBQ in the Baltimore area and Blue Pit didn’t disappoint! I recommend getting one of the meat platters so you can try a good mix of the meat and sides 😁 The brisket was a favorite! The mac and cheese was super creamy and the baked beans were not too sweet, great tangy/savory taste! (PS you’ve got to try all their different BBQ sauces, the coffee one was great w the mac and cheese). We’ll be back, thx!!

Blue Pit BBQ is a treasure in Baltimore! Not only is the BBQ incredible (AND they have jackfruit for vegetarians!), the drinks and the staff are too. Incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, and the owners Cara and Bruce are big community supporters and pillars in the neighborhood. Go, bring your dog, get the mac & cheese, you will not be disappointed.

My husband and I got married on the 19th and had Blue Pit as our catering group. I cannot say enough positive things about Cara and her team. Cara herself went above and beyond during the planning portion of our wedding as well as the execution of the event. All of her staff were friendly, efficient, and helped to make our day go smoothly. When we first reached out to Blue Pit about catering, we were treated to a meal and were able to try all of the food they make and knew from how delicious everything was alone that we would pick them as our catering group. The food itself was enough to win us over, but once you add in how helpful and attentive Cara was I don't see how you could even entertain other options. Our guests raved about the food, some even saying it was the best food they ever had at a wedding.

My husband and I just had our wedding here on Sunday. I have to say that Cara and her staff were amazing. They took care of all the details so we didn't have to worry about a thing. Everyone was commenting how the food was amazing and that they had so much fun and wanted to know how we found them. They made our wedding amazing. They made sure all the guest were taken care of and checked with us periodically to see if there was anything we needed. We were looking to have a non-traditional wedding and they fit us and our style perfectly.

Got delivery from here plenty of times recently mainly get the ribs which depending on what night I get them on are hit and miss. My biggest gripe is the inconsistent hours this restaurant operates at. One minute it's open the next closed for a day or two then back open for a few more days rinse and repeat some consistency would be nice. Good food though. Also don't order through GrubHub or Door dash it's not worth it. The food is ok but had better in North Carolina. Let me go more in depth with this location as I already said this location's hours are all over the place open a couple of days closed another few days this business as some other have said the food here is very subpar how this place gets such high remarks when it comes to food is beyond me the food is lackluster as many places in this god awful city and state North Carolina does food better and it's more about quality than quantity the quality of this location leaves much to be desired and I can go into much detail about this location but giving this location this much attention is more than they're worth my opinion if you want low quality food and don't care order from here but if you want high quality food you're better off going elsewhere and getting your money's worth.

Taste for BBQ!!!!! The BBQ here had no need for sauce. Tender, well seasoned, and hearty. However, the sauces were tasty: Mustard Sauce, Hot & Sweet, Coffee, and Sweet. My favorite one was the Coffee BBQ sauce. Baked beans, collard greens (vinegary), Mac&Cheese, Cole Slaw (Red Chilli) and corn bread. Everything was pretty good 👍!!! The mixed drinks from the bar were very good as well. We had the "Old Fashions". Bar seating up front. Chair seating upstairs and on the balcony. Upstairs looks like nice place to reserve for lunch or dinner party. The staff was extremely nice and accommodating. We'll be returning to try the brisket, and to have some more drinks 🍸 😉.

Tasty, quick, and unpretentious. Big fan of the ribs and the Mac n cheese.

We enjoyed our vegan brunch dishes and desserts. The breakfast sandwich had great flavors which meshed extremely well together. We enjoyed the veganwaffle which was made to perfection. We've experienced several different vegan waffles, this one was one of my favorites. The roasted brussel sprouts were a bit too oily for me. The desserts were good.

This is a somewhat eclectic spot on the Hampden main street. They offer a wide variety of entrees (with a southwestern/hispanic twist), including burgers, burritos, and enchiladas. All were tasteful and decently sized portions, but were quite pricey. They have lots vegan options, and supposedly started the first Vegan Week in america. They have a lot of seating indoors and can accomodate larger groups. Definitely worth a visit!

I've thought about writing a review for Golden West Cafe several times but haven't, because, ultimately, I always return. We used to go more often for brunch, but my boyfriend and I stopped when we realized that hot coffee refills were few and far between - so now we only go few and far between for hair-of-the-dog brunch. When server quality varied wildly in the dining room we stuck to always sitting at the bar rather than take the risk. When we had two instances of grease-pillow tots because the frying oil was too cold, we started ordering side salads. The brussel sprouts are usually either too wet or just burnt. If we don't check the specialty burgers for each ingredient before the server leaves ( because we know at least one ingredient will be missing), then we know that we need to emotionally accept that we won't get the ingredient. We do this because the great experiences at Golden West Cafe outshine these flubs, and calling over a server for every little thing would be miserable for the server and us. The more experienced staff are GREAT. The food when cooked appropriately is delicious. The bar program has always impressed me. We can take our whole family with all their dietary restrictions, preferences, and allergies. So this is why I haven't complained. But tonight I visited the restaurant for the first time since its bar move and what I saw finally made an issue big enough for me to talk about. As pictured, the placement of the new bar in conjunction with the wall seating and air conditioning vent makes access to the only restrooms completely inaccessible to anyone other than the able-bodied. When I brought this to the attention of one the servers, he gave a heavy sigh of realization and told me that no one had thought of or brought up this issue at all during the whole process. And now what I thought were once little quirks of GWC feels like people not paying attention to the details - this one, particularly significant. I really root for this restaurant but I feel like it's constantly shooting itself in the foot with all these oversights.

This is thebcoolest diner you'll ever visit. The unique decor (Buffalo heads, antique ceiling, dolly Parton on the bathroom stalls, and old portraits) makes this place a delight to visit. You'll see something new each time you swing by. The owner is friendly and the food is good for the vegetarians and the carnivores among you. The vegan food needs work as what is on the menu is highly processed and salty...but at least they gave it a shot.

Golden West Cafe has a laid-back, eclectic atmosphere with bold wallpaper and quirky wall decor. While the space is visually fun, I was a little surprised to see taxidermy moose and deer heads on the walls—especially at a place that proudly offers so many vegan options. That’s more of a personal preference, but it caught me off guard. The staff was friendly, though not especially personable. Service was smooth and efficient, though. The food was the real standout. We ordered two dishes: the Vegan Hot Honay Chick’N & Waffle and the Aztec Burrito. The Vegan Hot Honay Chick’N & Waffle was fantastic—crispy, flavorful, and surprisingly spicy in a way that was still enjoyable (and I don’t usually like spicy food). The plant-based chicken was one of the best I’ve had: well-fried and juicy. But the real star was the sauce—it pulled everything together. I could honestly eat this every week. The Aztec Burrito had a nice twist with the plantains inside, giving it a subtle sweetness. We kept it as-is (no added meat or vegan chorizo), and while the flavor was solid, the black beans overpowered the plantains unless you were looking for them. Too many black beans. Both dishes were $15.99, which felt like a fair price—especially considering how filling they were. Vegan food often comes at a premium, so it was nice to see reasonable pricing. I also appreciated how clearly the menu marked vegan options and how flexible the dishes were. It’s definitely a great place to bring a group with diverse dietary preferences. I’ve attached photos of the menu for reference. I’d absolutely come back again and try more—this place makes plant-based eating exciting and satisfying.

Cozy Spot with Great Food and Vibes Loved my visit to Golden West Cafe! I had a hot chai latte that really hit the spot, and the High Mesa polenta with chorizo and an egg over easy was delicious. They were super accommodating with my gluten-free needs and brought out corn tortillas without me even asking. The vibe is laid back and comfy—perfect for a relaxing meal. I’ll definitely be back!

The huevos montuleños never disappoint! really enjoyed trying the restaurant week menu as well. Thanks Jack for the amazing service! Would love to see some live music in here sometime.

It cost just $3 to drive in. Went there to represent ONE MORE ONE LESS MENTORING INC & Zenith mental health and autism services at a fishing clinic with LABF ( LUCKY AND BLESSED FISHING) We had a fantastic day with special need families and other sponsors. It's a great place to ca.pout, cookout, fish, commune and just enjoy nature as you fish!!!

It's a beautiful place to picnic, with wide open spaces and tree cover. You can pick up the free Harbor Connector to get to Locust Point, or the "pay" water taxi. First Thursdays concerts take place here in the summer. There is also a boat ramp if u want to put your boat in and spend a day on the water.

I didn't walk too far from where the water taxis park, but it was nice to visit the waterfront on a bright sunny day. Some individuals were "discreetly" enjoying libations midday, but most of what I observed was families, children, and couples connecting, exploring, playing, walking, and bike-rolling. I will be sure to see more on my next visit to Canton Waterfront.

Canton Waterfront Park is one of my favorite spots in Baltimore! I usually come here for WTMD’s First Thursday concerts, and it’s always such a great experience. The atmosphere is fun and relaxed, the views of the water are beautiful, and the live music makes it even better. It’s the perfect place to spend an evening with friends, grab some food from the vendors, and enjoy the energy of the crowd. Highly recommend checking it out, especially during the First Thursday events!

So much better than the waterfront..tourists area. Pasadena is so nice relaxing n quite calm. Picnic in grass or run in the park. Great area great experience. Went sailing and took the water taxi across river a free boat ride.

If not for the people who didn't take all of their belongings with them when they left, and the ice cream truck man who gives people whatever type of nuts he chooses for their sundae, it would have been a perfect day on the water. Oh! Restrooms could use better lighting and the mirrors need to be replaced because you can't see in them. Probably a coat of fresh paint and having someone clean them in the beginning of the day Saturday and Sunday and more trash cans. Is glad to see for the most part people are using them.

We picked a weather perfect day to stroll along the water in Canton. Enjoyed drinks and apps at Pussers.

One of the best ice cream shops in Baltimore. Includes a huge selection of soft serve ice cream. We had the apple pie, orange dreamsicle, and chocolate malt flavors and they were all delicious. Definitely worth checking this place out if you are in the mood for a cold treat!

What a great ice cream shop! This place has a walk in and sit down, or walk up and order window for take away. They have an extensive menu of different flavors and types of cones. It’s located in a really cute part of the city with a nice park nearby for a walk with your ice cream! They had ample seating inside and outside. Staff was very friendly and ice cream was delicious. Even though it was cold, it was very busy. I recommend walking unless you want to try and find a parking spot (it was hard for us to get a spot due to how busy it was).

Absolutely divine ice cream! A must-try spot if you're in Baltimore. We tried their Cuban Coffee Oreo, Unholy Cannoli, Watermelon Soft Serve, and Cotton Candy flavors. I got the Unholy Cannoli in a waffle cup — just a heads up, the quantity felt noticeably less compared to the cone. While my favorite is still the Cuban Coffee Oreo — rich, bold, and unforgettable — these were all fun and flavorful in their own way. Definitely worth trying if you're up for something playful and unique!

Absolutely love this place!! They have a variety of different flavors. Definitely have to stop here for ice-cream or a milkshake whenever I'm in the area.

A classic place in Baltimore. The dole whip was great 😊 lots of flavours to choose from. It can get very busy and overwhelming as people take a long time to order here since there’s a lot to choose from. But don’t let that deter you!

Awesome location. You can grab ice cream and walk across the street to Patterson park. Always busy during the summertime but they are really efficient with getting the orders out. I usually get a peanut butter brownie sundae with chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream. Its one of my favorite desserts around. The brownies are super fresh.

This surprised me. It was so good and funky. There were dozens of flavors and so many that I hadn’t ever considered before. The flavors were sharp and appropriate. The prices were not awful either. They keep a steady business and see roughly 50-60 people an hour, easily. They have an indoor ordering space as well as 4 windows along the outside to walk up and order. Inside there are only three tables, but they have a few more outside and a few benches as well as the park across the street. I highly recommend this spot!

I had a great stay at the Monaco in Baltimore! After being moved from another hotel due to water and AC issues, the front desk staff at the Monaco was incredibly responsive and made the transition seamless. The room was beautiful—comfortable, stylish, and exactly what I needed. I really enjoyed the complimentary coffee each morning in the lobby—it was such a nice touch to start the day. I do wish there had been a coffee maker in the room, and I was a little disappointed they had run out of plants (such a cool idea!), but those were minor things compared to the overall great experience. I requested extra hangers and received them almost immediately, which speaks to the attentiveness of the staff. I’d definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, well-managed hotel in the heart of Baltimore.

This place was a nightmare. The bed was like a concrete slab, the pillows were basically filled with air. The sheets had faint blood stains on them. There was no trash bag in the bathroom garbage. No handsoap in the bathroom at all. No microwave. No coffeemaker. Not even water in the mini fridge. Absolutely none of the amenities you’d expect at this price point. It was also extremely hot and humid in the room and the thermostat was of course locked. For a one bedroom suite with a king bed and pullout couch that’s supposed to sleep four people it was an absolutely tiny space. The only redeeming quality was the nice staff. This place was so uncomfortable we left at 6am even though we had two more days left in our stay. I would like to follow up this review by adding that after we explained this to the GM we did receive a percentage off of the bill and they did not charge us for the other night we had booked. All of the staff were wonderful, I just wish the hotel were as wonderful.

A really beautiful and elegant hotel. The rooms are very spacious. Even there is no coffee maker in the room, there is fresh coffee in the lobby every morning instead. We really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely come back.

Review: Kimpton Hotel, Baltimore We stayed in both a king room and a suite — both were great, though the suite was definitely our favorite (wish it had a bathtub, though). Our stay got off to a rough start because the first room we were given was really dirty — mismatched yellow towels, random hairs in the bed (which we found while checking for pests), and lots of dusty spots that should have been cleaned more thoroughly. Thankfully, the staff was responsive and moved us to a different room, which was much better. Once settled, we appreciated the comfortable setup and dog-friendly vibe inside the hotel. It’s a sensible place for traveling with pets — inside feels safe and calm — but outside can feel a little dodgy, especially at night. The in-room amenities and coffee/tea setup were just okay, and we didn’t get to try the evening wine reception. The lobby is located on the 2nd floor — you can take the elevator or a set of stunning (but steep and possibly slippery) marble stairs. I recommend the elevator. Security is visible, which was reassuring — one guard even had to step in when someone bothered us outside. Walking dogs in the area isn’t ideal, and the second-floor lobby setup also makes deliveries a little awkward, so it helps to coordinate with the front desk and drivers. Valet parking is a bit tight with limited space out front, but overall, the hotel is very convenient if you’re heading to events at the downtown arena.

Amazing hotel, so beautiful. We stayed a lot of Hilton and they never upgrade us Even though we’re diamond members, and they upgraded us right away to the top floor without asking and gave us late checkout, which Hilton will never do. You don’t have to pay a pet fee, which is absolutely amazing. The furniture is so beautiful and put together and the whole entire building is just amazing every time I come to Baltimore I’m going to stay here.

Beautiful old building! Spacious room. Very clean! Only downfall …You can hear everything when you have an adjoining room … and I mean everything. Great location. Valet treated us and the vehicle with respect. Quick service. Checking in/out was a breeze.

Kumar and Xena were wonderfully helpful. I can tell time was given to anticipating a guest’s need and preparing answers. The entry is beautiful capturing the decadence of the early 1900s. The actual lobby and my room were contemporary yet respectful of the historic design. The aesthetic is simple and elegant and I loved it. My 11 floor room had an entire window wall with sheer and light blocking shades. Room service was quick and adequate. The hours are a little confusing but there are so many options nearby i was never hungry. I was pleasantly distracted by the original design of the building that i found myself a little confused as to how i got to the lobby. A little clarification in the confirmation process would be helpful.

Zeus and I enjoy visiting this park BUT there are never trash bags for clean up. Yes we carry our own but the park has EMPTY poop bag holders. Recently, one of the dog park doors has been broken and can't be latched.

Great dog park! It is clean, well kept and they even have a water spout for dogs to stay hydrated and people bring dipping pools for the fogs in the summer. It is a great place to also stroll with your dog after their off leash romp and a great ice cream shop eith walk up window to treat you and your pup across the street.

Great park had area for small and large dog. Water for the dogs

The dog owners don't follow the POSTED RULES. I have a white rednose pitbull who is resource protective i.e. food, toys, treats, etc. I ALWAYS take my dog around the fence so he can smell and greet the other dogs before being let loose in the park and scope out to see if any toys are left on the ground and if there are I kindly ask other pet owners to pick them up and put them away and they usually oblige my requests. However the past 3 times I went there I had to repeatedly remind a few owners not to throw balls or anything that makes one dog feel like he is getting individual attention. This woman told me that those rules printed literally on every entrance were not accurate and are more like "guidelines." So I feel no remorse that her dog got hurt. The rules are in place to make sure both pets and their owners are safe and have a good time. If you follow the rules, it is an amazing place with lovely and loving doggies with amazing owners who are sharing, and caring. Please follow the rules that were put in place by people that know better than you how dogs think and act. Follow me at @leroyk._ on IG

This dog park is a blessing in this city! My pup loves being able to run around and play with other dogs. 99% of dog owners pick up after their dogs & are friendly. -1 star because: The water fountains break often, so it’s smart to bring some water for your pup just in case. Beware of careless dog owners who bring treats & dog toys into the park. Most dogs are socialized but I have ran into an aggressive dog who put its mouth around my dogs head - the owner was holding it by the color right near the entrance & I didn’t realize that was because the dog was potentially a threat to the other pups.

This park has just enough space for dogs to run around. Generally clean. Friendly pet owners. I felt like my dog was safe with the size separation and two-gate system.

My dog has alot of fun here, never had any issues & always a fun time!

We just returned from a one-night stay at The Ivy for our wedding anniversary, and while we had heard wonderful things going in and had high expectations, our stay exceeded every single one of them. Yes, it is not inexpensive to stay here, but the service and attention to detail make it worth every penny. The hotel itself is stunning — beautifully restored in a way that fully honors its history. But what truly sets The Ivy apart is the service. Just read the reviews! From the very first moment, everything felt personalized: greeted by name at check-in, offered champagne or sparkling tea, given a full tour of the hotel, and arriving in our room to find a handwritten note with wine and cheese. Afternoon tea was delicious, the serve-yourself bar was an awesome addition, and breakfast delivered to our room the next morning was outstanding and all included in the stay. The entire staff is wonderful! One of the most memorable moments came from our time with the concierge, Calvin. His warmth, authenticity, and simple gestures of kindness reminded us of the power of genuine care. We left with full hearts, a beautiful memory of our anniversary, and a new tradition — every year at The Ivy!

We had a lovely one-night stay at The Ivy for a birthday celebration. I'm rating this hotel 4 stars rather than 5 due to the cost creating a higher expectation that was not quite met. Firstly, this is a beautiful, historic space. It's gorgeously decorated and lovingly cared for. The service is warm and attentive. This is very important, and is expected for a luxury hotel. Our room was beautiful, and I thought it was fantastic that cheese and olives were set out for us. However, the bread had tumbled off the plate and no one fixed it (photo uploaded). This just speaks to a not quite 5 star attention to detail. Also, 2 thin slices of bread do not cover the amount of cheese served. Thankfully, they had pretzels in the snack drawer. Similarly, when my soft boiled eggs were served in the morning, they rolled off my plate and cracked. The server just said "sorry" and let me pick them up and reset them (that's why they're cracked in the photo). I didn't need fresh eggs, but the server didn't offer to get them, nor did she rectify the mess made- again, not quite 5 star service. Also, my friend booked the room and let them know this was for my birthday celebration. Kindly, they had a birthday card in our room, but it was addressed to my friend, rather than me. Not 5 star attention to detail. We struggled with bringing the heat down in our room. The concierge was caring, but we never were able to quite resolve the problem. The food was quite good, with some aspects of it excellent. I really enjoyed the afternoon tea and the snacks/drinks that came with the room. The Ivy has a very warm and welcoming atmosphere, and most of the staff were very friendly and conscientious. I'm very glad I got to experience The Ivy, but I'm not sure if it's quite worth the price to return. Those little details matter more at this price point.

My husband and I went to the Spa at the Ivy for the first time!! We had a truly amazing and relaxing experience. We were catered too from valet to our room at the spa. Alimata and Leigh-Anne were our masseuses. There are truly no words for how wonderful they were. I wish I can bottle them up and take them home. As you can tell I would highly recommend taking the time out to treat yourself at The Spa at the Ivy Hotel.

Impeccable service and amenities. This is our second visit and we love the entire experience. The rooms are furnished with everything we needed and we thoroughly enjoyed the spa as well as their restaurant Magdalena. The hotel staff even noted details of our previous visit and added personal touches to make our stay extra special. Highly recommend if you want the ultimate luxury experience in Baltimore!

The Ivy Hotel – June 2025 Stay ★ ★ ★ ★☆ (honest 4/5) 3.5 star experience this visit. I’ve been coming to The Ivy for 9 years, since my 34th birthday. Over time, it’s become one of our go-to escapes. My husband and I usually visit several times a year, and we’ve always appreciated the warmth, luxury, and thoughtful details that make The Ivy feel like more than just a hotel. This time, we brought close friends from Virginia who were excited to finally experience it for themselves. But unfortunately, this visit just didn’t hit the same. What’s still great Our room was clean and beautiful, just as we’ve come to expect. Danielle from housekeeping was such a bright spot—kind, thorough, and attentive. Breakfast was delicious, and afternoon tea remains one of my favorite experiences. It’s quiet, intimate, and only offered to hotel guests, which I love. The kitchen and dining staff continue to deliver on service. But the energy was off this time From the start, the tone at the front desk felt a little cold. My guests weren’t told about the mansion tour, the hotel’s history, or even the included car service, which is such a missed opportunity. Those extras are part of what makes The Ivy feel special, and they didn’t get to experience them. I also noticed a shift in how we were treated. There were moments that felt unnecessarily policed, like being watched closely over how many drinks we had, and staff communicating about it in ways that didn’t feel welcoming. Instead of being cared for, I felt like I was being managed. My husband stayed here a few months ago and had a similar feeling. It just wasn’t the same Ivy we’ve come to know. At one point, we were told about how expensive it is for the hotel to work with AMEX, how they were sold out tomorrow, and how that affected service. Honestly, I’m not here to manage their business model. I just want to enjoy my stay. I shouldn’t feel like an afterthought because of whatever is happening behind the scenes. And we missed Mr. Calvin He has always been a warm and familiar face. In many ways, he’s the heartbeat of the Ivy. Next time, I’ll call ahead to make sure he’s working before I book. His presence makes a difference. Last note Without the hotel car service available, we ended up spending more than expected on Uber Black to get to dinner. That’s something I would not have anticipated from an all-inclusive luxury property. Final thoughts The Ivy is still a beautiful place, and I believe it can get back to what it once was. But something’s changed. Not in the look or feel, but in the spirit. Luxury isn’t just about the setting. It’s about how you’re made to feel. And at times during this stay, I didn’t feel like I belonged.

The hotel common area itself is a treasure of beautiful woodwork and hand-painted tiles and mosaics and interior design that is clever and exciting to enjoy. The tour upon our arrival and greeting from Teresa was memorable and concierges Sydney and Calvin were perfect, not only helping us navigate and create our itinerary, but were also great conversationalists. Everyone we met was incredibly helpful and bent over backwards to help with any need we had. It was an amazing experience!

The stay at The Ivy Hotel, Baltimore was extremely remarkable and made our vacation pleasingly memorable. The staff greeted us with a warm and genuine welcome. Then Mr. Calvin, Concierge with his stylish bow tie, was exquisite. He greeted us with our names and ensured our check in was phenomenal. We were provided with a choice of tasty beverages. And a grand wee tour of the area. I want to reach out to Thereza, Assistant General Manager who well – orchestrated our amazing stay at The Ivy Hotel in Baltimore. Thereza appears to be an intelligent and highly articulate young, women. She carefully planned and involved the staff who worked diligently towards her daily common goal to make the guest experience a five-star Micheline experience. The staff are professionally well rounded and contribute to this Michelin rated Hotel. Thereza who ensured our comfort and the attention to details in our room and our entire stay. The cozy crispy sheets and selected pillows were cozy and a fantastic way to end the evening along with the luxurious amenities. Breakfast was an experience itself. Homemade butter and homemade fresh muffins. Duck bacon! The imagination in the Chefs cuisine left me wanting to come back for more! We will be back to experience the aesthetic vibes of their High Tea in The Ivey Hotel. The talented individuals who designed the hotel had amazing visions and well-orchestrated planned exquisite rooms. All aesthetically charming and uniquely designed with dreamy decor. Your eyes will never get tired of the beauty of art and Architect details all unimaginable. A must see and sit in the room to get rejuvenated in a pleasing atmosphere. The Ivy Hotel puts Baltimore on the map. I highly recommend The Ivy Hotel in beautiful Baltimore, Maryland. Please ask for Thereza. The Ivey Hotel must make your bucket list of places to stay.

My dog and I love this dog park! It’s located in the great neighborhood of canton. We use to live two blocks up the street and we walked there just about everyday. Even after relocating, I still drove my dog Chino to this park. Both the dogs and people are friendly! I would recommend going whenever it’s not raining to avoid your dog getting really dirty. People always donate grocery bags for waste pickup, in case you run out of doggy bags. Lastly they have two sides that separate big dogs from small, which is greatly appreciated! I also made a video of a casual walk to the park with my dog Chino. We stayed to play for a while since it was a warm and sunny day. I also made a video of our day at the Canton Dog Park. If you would like to see what the park is like, watch my experience and review video on YouTube! Title: Taking My Dog To The Park-Chino🦮 By: LoveJo

Gated, friendly dogs, always people with their dogs there for your doggos to interact with. Haven’t gone once and was alone! Water bowls, poop bags, large area!!

My pups had loads of fun here. Separate areas for large and small dogs, water fountain, all sand, some trees and chairs for owners and plenty of parking.

It's a good muddy romp on wet days, and a mostly grassless option on dry days. Water fountains are available and there are two distinct yard for small and large dogs.

Great dog park, with separate places for small dogs and big. Nice water fountain access and the people there are always very friendly. A wonderful community resource.

A volunteer run dog park where it feels small town, and everyone knows everyone. Since this isn't funded or supported by the city make sure to bring your own bags, to clean up after your pooch.

Straight forward dog park, nothing fancy. Has water fountain and plenty of toys, near a park that gets bright lights at dark (not always). Not great after it rains as a huge puddle will form. Gets quite dusty when dry as it is all dirt.

Saturday Brunch here with my wife and our son and daughter in law. The food was high quality and wonderfully flavored. I had the Banana Chocolate Chip Pancakes with A Scrambled Eggs w/ Cheese and the Cranberry Maple Turkey Sausage. The family had various omelets and everything was delicious. Truly a wonderful dining experience.

9/12/2025 at 11:00am Everything was perfect, from the start we had a friendly welcome, the host was amazing and very knowledgeable. Our server was very friendly and patient with our 3 kids. All the food we ordered felt fresh and homemade, it was delicious. Personally today I had one of the best breakfast I've had in 34 countries and 26 states from this beautiful country I have visited and of course I have many great experiences, so I add today dish to 1 of the 10 best breakfasts due to the unique and diverse flavor of this dish (Fried chicken biscuit & and gravy omelet ) the name don't mention all the other ingredients, I recommend this dish 100%

Come here as we were in Baltimore early and it was open for breakfast. Great it had a separate vegan menu and kids menu. Friendly and helpful service. Kids portion is very generous! The Vegan pancakes where a little dry but alright. No restaurant toilet. Prices are quite high.

Unique breakfast joint within walking distance when in the inner harbor. Has great menu options that are hard to narrow down. The Cinnamon Danish pancakes were our favorite. Everyone left with their bellies full.

First time.. came from a tiktok recommendation! Food was decent, I wouldn't go back for 2nd. Nice outside view to sit and eat. Its more on the pricey side here! Server was good! My friend did not like the egg whites, it was corrected but still wasn't to her liking. The manager did come by a follow-up which was nice.

First time at Miss Shirley’s and it did not disappoint! Our server Ryan was attentive and so sweet. I ordered their Crab Hash and Fries Green Tomato Eggs Benedict and I will forever dream about how delicious it was. Was also ordered the Pimento Cheese Biscuits which were heavenly with the strawberry jam. Would recommend this place to anyone traveling from out of town who really wants a good breakfast!

I haven’t been to Miss Shirley’s in a few years and the food is still good. The shrimp and grits are a must have along with the new fruit drinks they now offer. One slight inconvenience is having to leave the restaurant and go to a different floor in the building to use the restroom. That just a minor set back for a nice brunch spot near the harbor.

My mom and I loved eating here. We came to Baltimore to see a concert, and it was close to our hotel. The location was nice, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. We ate there two days in a row. The service was amazing and the food was delicious. They have plenty of options and as someone with a bunch of food allergies, it was nice to see. Our server Jazz was friendly, and she made the whole dining experience more comfortable. I'll definitely eat here, next time I'm in Baltimore.

I stopped by Pratt Street Alehouse and tried their Baked Soft Pretzels, which come with a side of beer cheese and the house mustard. The pretzels themselves were soft, fluffy, and generously sized—perfect for those who love a more doughy texture. If you’re someone who prefers a crisp or crunchy exterior, these might not hit the mark, but for me, they were a win. The house mustard was a standout—bold, flavorful, and one of the better pub mustards I’ve had. The beer cheese, on the other hand, was a bit underwhelming. It had a runny consistency and lacked the richness you’d expect, making it feel like more of an afterthought than a highlight. The dish includes two pretzels for $16.99, which felt fair given their size and the downtown location. One important note: a 20% automatic tip is added to every bill regardless of party size or order total. While that might catch some off guard, the service was friendly and efficient, and the space was clean and well-maintained. The atmosphere was lively. There are plenty of TVs and a lively crowd that are invested in the live sports events, which gives you the feeling of experiencing something together. Whether you’re a die-hard fan or just along for the ride, the energy is contagious.

The wings and fries were hot and delicious, we got the mild wings but they had a pretty good heat to them. They had a large selection of beers and mixed drinks to choose from. The bartender was great, with great insight on the area, quick to refill your drink, offered great options for different drinks and just enjoyable to talk with. I highly recommend the Oliver brewing beers.

I am in town for a conference with some colleagues and we stopped here after registering. It was surprisingly decent. I had the Chesapeake Chicken, my colleagues had the salmon salad, the salmon dinner, and the chicken pasta - no complaints. We also had the crab dip which was also pretty good. For a quick bite to satisfy after a day of traveling, this did the trick. Waitress was great!

I went there after the ‘Ironman’ bobblehead game, with my friend. The food was 🧑‍🍳😘spectacular… Caesar salad was a Caesar salad. The Brussels sprouts were divine…. But that crab dip. Oh. My. Gawd!! <droooooool> worth every calorie!! BUT…our waiter, Cam, was the best freaking part of it all. We sat there as it started raining (lightly, but definitely got stronger) and he was willing to play along with our crazy. 10/10, no notes, stellar guy! I live in another time zone, but I have enjoyed evenings here before, and will most definitely do so again.

Our group showed up with 36 people towards the end of the night. Theo was our server and he was FANTASTIC. He kept us laughing the entire time. BY FAR the best experience I ever had at a restaurant. I recommend both the food and his service to anyone in the area! Whatever his salary is, it needs to be doubled immediately. Eddie with the Simulation Football League. Tell Theo we all said hello!

We pass this place all the time going to Pickles and that whole scene before Orioles game. We finally decided to give it a shot, and im glad we did. Crab cake dinner was delicious, burger was cooked perfectly and tasted great, great price on local beers, blocks from Orioles Park at Camden Yards. This is now our go-to before O's games.

This place with a lot of fun. The food was delicious and all the people were nice. Parking was easy and the food came out quick enough. The only problem we had was we asked for an appetizer two times and it was forgotten both times, they were busy though so it's not a big deal but something to note.

Mama's on the Half Shell is a cozy seafood restaurant. It is really nice to visit this restaurant in the fall and winter because of their fireplace. They also have great daily deals and seasonal drinks. We ordered salad, calamari, seafood and crab soup. The staff was very attentive until it got crowded. The prices were a little high for sandwiches but sufficient for entrees. Overall, I would go back to check out the deals and order another salad. I would recommend anyone that is looking for cozy spot with nice tunes to go here.

The food was amazing especially the Rockefeller oysters! I had one order and couldn’t resist so ordered another. The crab cakes were impeccable too! Every bite tasted so fresh! The Mac n cheese pairing was perfect! Of course the raw oysters were great!

Our final night in Baltimore was one we’ll never forget, thanks to the unforgettable experience we had at Mama’s on the Half Shell. This wasn’t just a meal—it was a celebration of flavor, warmth, and world-class hospitality. Let’s start with the food, because wow. Every single dish that came from that kitchen was divine. The crab egg rolls are an absolute must—crispy, generous, and bursting with Maryland’s best. The half-pound steamed shrimp? Perfectly seasoned and plump. The Brussels sprouts were charred and caramelized to perfection. Our crab-topped salad was fresh and flavorful, and the lamb chops—oh, the lamb chops—were infused with rosemary so deeply, it was as if they had been marinated for hours in a garden of flavor. And then came the Maryland rockfish, flaky and bold, honoring the region’s seafood legacy. Order any of the soups!!! The cocktails were on point. The Manhattan was rich, balanced, and expertly crafted—no shortcuts here. And just when we thought we couldn’t eat another bite, we made room for dessert—because at Mama’s, you make room. The bread pudding was soul-soothing, and the cheesecake was luscious and light, the perfect ending to a spectacular meal. Now for the service, which truly made the evening shine. Brian and Michael were nothing short of phenomenal. Their energy, recommendations, timing, and genuine care for our table struck the perfect balance—never intrusive, always attentive. And then there was Mauricio, the manager (we hope we’ve got his name right!), who quietly brought dishes to our table with such warmth and grace that we didn’t even realize at first he was part of leadership. When we began chatting—as we tend to do—he humbly shared that he was indeed the manager, and later returned to check in on us before leaving. He even sent over dessert to close out our evening. It was that kind of night—every detail handled with care and love. This was hands down the best meal we had in Baltimore and we had a lot of meals - and one of the best meals we’ve ever had, period. Every dollar we spent felt more than worth it. If you’re visiting Baltimore and want to experience something special, Mama’s on the Half Shell is it. No question.

Mamas on the Half Shell absolutely delivered! The Oyster Rockefeller and Maryland Crab Soup were outstanding, packed with flavor and freshness. The Fish & Chips were perfectly crispy, the Sriracha Brussels sprouts had just the right kick, and the Rockfish topped with Crab Imperial was simply amazing. On top of the great food, our server John was phenomenal! Hands down the best server I’ve had in ages. Friendly, attentive, and on point with everything. He made the whole experience even better. Can’t wait to come back!

Food was absolutely AMAZING!! The restaurant was so nice looking and our server was so attentive and great to talk too. Definitely will make a trip back up here just for this place

I enjoyed EVERYTHING!!! I had oysters for the first time not because of opportunity but didn't like it. I must say I LOVED the Rockefeller Oysters. Absolutely delicious. Everything was amazing. I will definitely return to experience dinner. They have a wood burning fireplace upstairs. Thank you Joy for great service.

The park here is very fun, relaxing. I come here often with my dog, and sometimes bring my nephew. He likes running around at the place, and its just a very relaxing environement to come and unwind at! Its worth checking out.

Beautiful spot with amazing views of Baltimore’s Inner Harbor. A great place to relax, take photos, or enjoy a peaceful walk. One of the best scenic overlooks in the city!

Great place to relax, walk and see the city Nice park and well maintained road Very steep on the grass so it hurts to sit for a long time. It is a good place to see the city and july 4th fireworks. I would recommend right before the sunset for the view

Beautiful park within the chaos of Downtown. Pet friendly. Good air. Park feels like it's actually on the hill. The view is fantastic, I've attached photos from the top of the park. The only downside is the washroom which wasn't available there. Recommended!

Nice park overlooking the harbor downtown Baltimore. Lots of people and dogs and we also saw a Quinceañera photo shoot going on.

The service was awesome, Mandi the manager had everything under control and the drinks she made had me wishing the next day was not Monday. Food was awesome, had the NY strip steaks 👍🏿 and Long Island drink. Really nice environment. I will be back .

Stop by for brunch, the drinks were slightly weak on the alcohol. The service was fast and friendly. We ordered four dishes and two appetizers, and four drinks. Crab cake Benedict, steaks and eggs, omelet dish, and salads. Total with tips is about 220. It was a wonderful sunny day with nice breeze for outdoor brunch!

I had such a great experience at The Point! The atmosphere was fun and welcoming, but what really stood out was the service. Mandi, the bartender, was absolutely fantastic—she was attentive, kind, and genuinely made me feel taken care of the entire time. She not only made excellent drinks but also went out of her way to check in and make sure everything was perfect. It’s rare to find service that feels both professional and personal, and Mandi nailed it. Thanks to her, this spot is definitely one I’ll be coming back to and recommending to friends.

This place is amazing!! Second time we have been here (we come from out of state) and the food and drinks are amazing. Service was great as well expect the very beginning. Short Spanish hostess in the front who has a black neck, cakey 2-day makeup, wears hoop earrings and an even more disgusting attitude did not make our time here welcoming. She’s the first person who “greeted” (didn’t even say hi/hello) us to sit us and was absolutely rude. Our bartender for sure made up for it! She was great, food came out fast and was so delicious! Drinks are tasty and strong! No other complaints. They should really put someone else in the front who was raised correctly with manners to greet and bring in all the customers in!

First off shout to Treasure because she was the BEST server I’ve had !!! She was very attentive to us, she checked up on consistently but not in a bothersome manner. Her energy was good vibes and we enjoyed her. The food was as really good and the atmosphere was good too. It’s my new favorite brunch spot when visiting Baltimore

Very loud and noisy environment! I came here for a dinner with a group and we were in the upstairs private area which was extremely loud with high ceilings and the sounds just reverberated off the ceiling. It was super hard to hear talking and getting to know people. The wings were good but I anticipated more for the price. Desserts were mediocre and though the apple cake that I had was good and a nice large portion, the icing was too sweet and affected the cake itself. Probably would not get dessert again here. Should I come back, I'll probably get a burger or something and try something else. Don't get me wrong, the wings tasted great, but they weren't filling. It might have been different if I came here to watch a game and sit in the bar area.

Upon reading other reviews, a bit confused by my family’s experience here this past evening and why our service/experience as so poor when others had a much more pleasant time here… My family (4 of us) had came in around 7 for dinner on a Wednesday. Wasn’t busy. Got seated at a table that we were told immediately, “We’re going to need this table at 8:30 for the DJ.” Truly bewildering why we were sat somewhere that would have a time restriction on it, especially when there were other tables that seemed available. Not sure why the employee felt the need to tell us this, either, or how that’s our problem. It made us feel like we weren’t welcome right from the jump. It took another 10 minutes before we even got menus and a drink order put in. Then another 20 minutes before anyone came by to check on us and take our order, which I would totally understand if the place was busy. But our server spent her time chatting with the same customer at the bar nearly that entire time while we waited to order. All the while, we’re nervous that we were going to get kicked from our table given the other bartender/server’s comments when he sat us. We didn’t place our food order until 8 and still no sign of our food at 8:30. The server, once again, never checked us on this entire 30 minute period. Not once. The few other patrons didn’t have food, either. We were wondering why the food was taking so long; these were the only times, and I mean the ONLY times, our server ever stopped by to our table was when she somehow overheard us mentioning how long things were taking and how frustrated we were that we were being ignored. There were no apologies, only excuses. “Our food is made from scratch and takes about 30-35 minutes.” Interesting when we overheard another server mention how the people (who got there before us) had their order put in at 8 and still didn’t have their food at 8:45. I don’t get it—if the kitchen is backed up, then just say that instead of making excuses and making us, the customer, feel like we’re crazy for being upset at the quality of service. (Just to mention, another couple had came in around 8 and waited between 3-5 minutes to be seated. They eventually left because they were ignored, too). To top it off, they added a 20% automatic gratuity despite it only being 4 of us and not 5 like their policy states. It sucks because when we finally got the food (35 minutes later), it was delicious!! We would’ve been fine with waiting if the server seemed the least bit apologetic for the long waits & having a decent reason not to check on us, but instead she ignored us most of the evening then tacked on a gratuity because her service didn’t deserve a 20% tip. I usually tip more than 20%, but when you’re talking with your friend over at the bar for 50 minutes instead of serving customers, yeah, that’s a problem. Disappointed, to say the least, especially since the food was so good and the environment was great (which is why I’m giving it 2 stars instead of 1).

Best bills bar ever adam is the mayor awesome wings and labatt

We stopped there for a beer. After we were served, we were totally ignored. I wanted another beer but decided to go to another bar nearby because they acted like we were bothering them being there. As we walked out they didn’t say a word to us. We definitely won’t be back!

Great drink prices, good vibes and a fantastic vantage point to watch the Maryland Cycling Classic. The bar is located at a technical cobbled corner so it makes for some exciting viewing. Be warned though, this is not a quiet place.

We really enjoyed this place. This is a great location. They had a band on Saturday night. Service was good. I would definitely recommend this place.

The best bar to go for live band and music. No food 🎶🎵

Service was prompt and the vibes were spot on. Upstairs is dead before 10 but fills up (and I mean FILLS up) fast afterward. DJ was great. Absolutely worth a visit on the weekend.

We Came into Baltimore for a Carnival Cruise and there was a Buffalo Bills game on. The cruise was delayed due to bad weather so we decide to check this place out based on a friends recommendation. When we first walked in, we didnt feel welcome as we were wearimg our Bills gear and everyone else had Ravens stuff on.. Then a guy walked in wearing a Bills shirt, asked us if we checked out the "uprstairs" yet, we said no and he paid for our 2 beers and said Follow Me. We walked past a few other levels of the bar, some people wering Pittsburgh jerseys, next floor was eagles fans.. rhen we hit the last floor and when the doors opened up it was like Heaven.. Nothing but Buffalo Bills fans and colors all over. It was crazy. We stayed as long as we could before we had to head towards the ship. Thank you for the hospitality and drinks. Keep up the great work. Cheers and Go Bills.

This is our second visit to Choptank. The hostess was very nice and friendly and seated us immediately upon entry. Our waitress Taylor was very attentive. She did an amazing job. We ordered the cream of crab soup, old-fashioned (drink), oysters, po’boy (fish), and crab cake entree, with corn pudding. Everything was amazing. We also had a special visit from Jordan, Roy and the executive chef Calvin. Jordan’s hospitality was unmatched. We had a great conversation with Roy and Calvin. We can't wait to meet up again when they are not working. If you are looking for good food, service, staff, and atmosphere check out Choptank. We are loyal foodies and we know an amazing organization when we see one. Choptank and the Atlas Group is top tier.

This was my second visit to choptank in Fells point and it did not disappoint. We started with lemon drop cocktails crafted by my favorite bartender Ryan for appetizers we tried the honey ole bay wings and jumbo meatball with garlic bread-both amazing. We were so full, that we ended up taking our main courses to go, but I enjoyed the crabcake mac & cheese and salad for dinner at home. They were fantastic. Can’t wait to come back Ryan you made me a fan.

We tried several menu items, and everything was great. We got Maryland crab+cream of crab soup, which was excellent. We also got the tartare, calamari, and a dozen raw oysters. It was all delicious! I also loved the house margarita ❤️

Wonderful crab cakes and outdoor patio. Also have great local beers on draft and wonderful service. Highly recommended if in fells point. Note you can split the crab cake meal and get your own sides which are huge.

Decided to come downtown Baltimore to see what has changed and found this newly renovated location on Broadway market. Very nice and spacious!! Came for drinks and appetizers. No wait on Monday nights, got to take I the ambiance. The food of choice was the Choptank wings(good), Cream of crab soup(need more crabmeat good), potato skins( different flavor but good), passion fruit Margarita and Long island Ice tea. Bartender was good! Over all happy with my choices. Will have to try again for dinner. If in the area try them out!!

OMFG!!! First off, Micky is THE best!! She explained all the dishes to us and gave her personal recommendations and everything that she suggested was PHENOMENAL!! She makes AMAZING drinks and she talked to us like we were long time friends! ChopTank, you TRULY have a gem having Micky work at your establishment! We will be coming back!! Food was PERFECT!! We definitely left with a smile on our faces! Micky YOU ROCK!!! ☺️😊

Really good crab cake 🔥 the drinks were good, Cole slaw was also really good and I’m not a Cole slaw fan but it helped balance out the crab cake 👌 definitely left satisfied 👏🙌

Fresh delicious pizza. With extremely fast efficient service. The vibe is laid back and funky. There is a large outdoor seating area, with suffient cozy hightop seating inside. We'll definitely be back.

The place was nice. A little hard to find though. The beer was good, not great. The food options are limited pretty much to pizza and salad. The pizza was decent but nothing to write home about the salad in my opinion was better. I also heard you can order pepperoni pizza which is not on the menu.

Diamondback Beer is one of my favorite spots in Locust Point! The atmosphere is always welcoming, the team is friendly, and the beer selection never disappoints, there’s truly something for everyone. I love that it’s not just a brewery, but also a great place to gather with friends or meet new people in the community. Their space has such a relaxed, neighborhood feel, and it’s one of the local gems I’m always proud to recommend to clients moving into the area. 🍻✨ — Ali Hudler, Hudler Homes

The staff is lovely. The beer is very good and different selections rotate in fairly often. Their pizza crust has perfect chew and the Jersey pie (in house vodka sauce) with meatballs IMO is to die for. The salad is also great. One of my fav breweries in Baltimore.

Pittsburgh native in Baltimore for the first time. We stopped into James Joyce, a Irish pub in downtown. I ordered the Green Machine IPA. Gotta say, one of the best hazy IPA's I ever had. If this beer is any testimonial to the rest Diamondback has to offer, you are in for a real treat! As a fellow craft Brewer, this brewery hits the mark. You won't be disappointed.

Great pizza, but the non-pizza items on the menu are overpriced and not worth it. The server spilled beer on my partner 🥲 accidental but not great. Good live music on the weekends, seems to be very kid and dog friendly on the patio

This is a quaint little Brewery sandwiched in between a bunch of condos. The highlight here is their pizza, which is handmade and has excellent crust. There are also a variety of interesting toppings you can have. What disappointed me about the Brewery was their beer. I found all four kinds of the beer I tried were below average. They also did not do flights, so you have to buy a half pour (8 ounces). Some of their beers they do not even offer half pours, and they force you to buy a full pint. Overall, it's a nice atmosphere inside with excellent pizza, but measure your expectations before trying the beer.

I attended a conference here and didn’t stay overnight so no comment on the rooms. The service in the cafe was good and parking attendants were very helpful and patient. The conference space was pretty typical but the lobby area was a breath of fresh air. Most likely because the area is surrounded by huge windows, sofas, coffee tables, high top tables and stools with outlets as well as regular seating for meals etc. very comfortable. The parking garage leaves a lot to be desired as it is actively under construction or what seems to be extensive repairs. The signs weren’t clear as to where the elevator was or how to get to the main building because most signs were covered by the caution tape. I parked on the top deck and got one of only three spaces remaining for a conference that began at 8am. I wonder where other people parked since a lot of spaces were taped off and not available for use. There was active water running in the garage and you can actually spell urine. Not to mention it took well over 35 minutes to get out.

My wife and I traveled to Baltimore this past weekend and this place left a lot to be desired. For starters, we arrived about 30 minutes after our check-in time and were told we would need to wait for a room to become available. That's fine, we are patient and we can occupy ourselves. However, after 45 minutes and our 8-month old becoming extremely agitated, we finally had enough and went to the desk to ask for an update. Luckily, the desk manager was extremely kind and helped us out. Afterward we went to our room and found that our towels were dirty and we only had three pillows. We tried to call to the front desk but the phone wouldn't work. I also went to the market to try and find a phone charger or a toothbrush, neither of which were available. On top of all this, the parking situation is a nightmare and unnecessarily convoluted. Be prepared to pay a pretty penny despite being guests! Dinner was fine at the restaurant, and overall the walk to Camden Yards was fairly easy. But if you have the opportunity to stay somewhere else, I would do so.

I held a meeting at this hotel September.24-25. I booked 90 plus room nights and catering for 48 people. The rooms and hotel are very nice. However their customer focus,and communications seem to be a low priority. I do not feel like the hotel valued my business and many of my asks, including a 0 balance bill to my requirements were met with "hyatt cannot do that". My planner was very busy and OOO many times with no backfill. The sales manager did not reply to any of my queries. I would think a Senior Sales Manager would be a bit more customer focused than that. I have been holding meetings all over the country 3 times a year for 16 years with this set of executive clients and actually held a meeting at this hotel a few years ago. I would have to conclude the hotel facilities are good but I would hesitate doing business here again. A disappointing experience from this Hyatt hotel. I have used Marriott, Omni, Hilton, Private Boutique hotels, Kimpton and 4 seasons. I must say this overall experience was not at the same level of the other hotels

From the excellent and professional customer service and care Chandra gave, to the Valet parking attendants, Raphael’s front desk customer friendliness & patience, superb dining, customer care and friendliness of Rashad, Doug, servers:Ajay & Willie we are revived. Celebrated 38yrs of marriage in two days and you woulda thought we were royalty. Everyone and everything was so nice. It was an enjoyable stay. Conference did not interfere or the next door pet that the owners left alone. Harbor was hopping, sirens were heard, but Baltimore City did actually settle down so that we could get some sweet sleep. Thank you again Chandria A. and Hyatt staff. Job well done. Mission accomplished!🥰

Highlight of my stay was the rooftop pool. Amazing views! The first day I stayed I was surprised that they did not have anyone tending the pool , no pool cushions were placed out. However the rest of my stay the pool area was maintained and they had someone on the outdoor bar/grill. The lady working at the pool while I was there was so sweet and helpful. Overall this hotel is really nice. The rooms were immaculate. Plenty of amenities in the rooms like a fridge and microwave. Even though the hotel is huge it is quiet. I could not hear the other guest. Great gym on site as well! Beautiful views of Baltimore inner harbor. Majority of the staff were friendly. Loved that there was a walk over bridge from the parking garage to the harbor. Overall rating for a solo traveler is 9/10. Hated that I had to pay to park even as a guest though. One recommendation the glass on the outside of the elevators looking out to the water deff needs to be cleaned.

Not impressed by front desk service. Customers ahead of me were treated very warmly. I was not given the same friendly service. I inquired about self service parking but was not told to an ounce of detail. When I exited the parking garage an attendant proceeded to tell me the front desk should have told me how to park to avoid paying in/out fees. When I returned later I was told — “oh yes we will charge you $34” (mind you I already paid $15) then was told and you call the parking vendor to ask for a refund. Thanks for giving me extra work just b/c the hotel front desk didn’t offer these details upfront. Then my son who was staying in the room next to mine calls me saying a live roach was in his bedding!!! So gross!!! Every hotel is hard to stay at b/c it isn’t home but come on guys DO BETTER!!! Then someone brought us replacement bedding and told us to make our own bed b/c she did know how to!!! UGH!!! Worst experience ever!!!!

This is the only Hyatt location I've ever been to where I've been interrogated by their head of security. Fortunately, Andre is a sober man, with a keen discerning manner. Always nice to get a glimpse behind the curtains. though i do wish that the regular staff knew about MCAS.

The staff was friendly, however, we encountered issues with the room and other guests. Our shower handle was broken off and needed to be replaced. The guests next to our room were blasting music all night until 730 in the morning. We had called down three times during the night but the guests kept turning the music back up. We got no sleep the entire night, which made for an unpleasant next day. We asked for a late checkout and was told 1230, but if we needed more time to just call in the morning. I called in the morning and they said 1230 is the latest. What would have been a great stay was unfortunately ruined by other guests and no one doing anything about it. Just like to update that manager of the hotel reached out to me and we spoke about the concerns. He was very nice and I appreciate his genuine concern. Will definitely give them another chance.

I had a great experience overall! I arrived early—around 11 AM—due to my flight, fully aware it was before the standard check-in time. The front desk staff informed me there had been a power outage earlier, which delayed room cleanings. Despite this, they kindly said they would prioritize my room since I had already arrived. I left my bags with them and went to grab a bite to eat. To my surprise, my room was ready a little after 1 PM—such a thoughtful gesture that I truly appreciated. I stayed for five nights while attending a work conference, and everything was excellent. The staff was amazing, the hotel was clean, and I had no complaints. Highly recommend!

The service was pretty great. However I was shocked by several situations that occurred. 1. While the room gets maintained daily and is very nice to have. The room never received the coffee being restocked and there was no facial cleaning soap in the restroom. That of course is small… except for the coffee definitely need that daily haha. The other issue is the parking. While trying to park I can either pay $28 for 4 hours on the street or I may park in the garage for $60 a night. The best option is utilizing Valet at $55 a night just for parking. The sad situation I ran into is that I was given the price and not the hours of operation so in return my flight flying out at 6:30am and no one is available to get my vehicle at 4:30am. They advised I can have the keys and search for my car but they cannot tell me where it is parked. That was quite frustrating. All this followed by being advised I will not receive the points for my stay being I booked through my companies booking site which is very odd to me because I have received the points every time I’ve used it in the past.

I was generally pleased with my experience at this hotel. Valet service available. Lobby was clean and inviting. Room was adequate and comfortable with a wonderful view of the harbor. My only disappointment was that at nearly $500 for a single night stay, there was no breakfast included with the stay.

The hotel looked lovely from the pictures and the location was nice. I could see the potential in this space but unfortunately we had a horrific time at this hotel. We booked a reservation for 4 nights and chose to pay the premium price for this hotel due to the beautiful restaurant onsite and the location. We were excited for our stay. When we arrived we learned they were under construction. There was no food onsite for the duration of our stay - which was 1) not communicated ahead of the stay and 2) very inconvenient for my husband who was working all day from the hotel and would have preferred to take short lunch breaks at the onsite restaurant. This was half the reason for us booking. If that was the extent of it, I would've chalked it up as just bad communication and taken the loss. However, When we arrived they were actively painting the ceiling by the elevators and in order to reach our room, we had to step on the drop cloth covered in paint and navigate past the men on ladders. I got paint on my shoes and paint dripped on my arm on the way to elevator. We stayed on floor 10 and the entire floor had been recently painted and the walls were lined with plastic. I'm pregnant and the paint fumes were overwhelming and gave me a headache to the point where I ended up staying with a friend locally while my husband stayed at our hotel. The banging went on night and day and it made his working experience very tough as well. This absolutely should have been communicated as this environment was dangerous for a pregnant woman and just very uncomfortable for folks in general. I'm really disappointed in Hilton and I would never recommend this hotel to a friend due to the high price and terrible communication and unwillingness to shut down for renovations and instead inconvenience your guests.

We stayed here for the Maryland Cycling Classic and for that the location was perfect. We could easily walk to the teams presentation, the finish line and the best viewing location for the race (the Thames street cobbles). But it’s also a fantastic location for fun Baltimore stuff in general. The hotel rooms were clean, and quiet and our view was beautiful. The pool table is a fun touch and I appreciate the filtered water station. I liked that we were able to pre-pay for a late check-out. We got good service from everyone and the hotel punches above its price-class. The attached restaurant and bar, Cindy Lou’s, is a great amenity. We’ll be staying here again for the race next year.

1st time visiting this hotel. Nice location next to the water in the Inner Harbor. Walking distance from some restaurants, grocery and shopping. Great customer service. Received a welcome bag (water and chips). Modern style rooms. Valet parking $55/day or park yourself for hourly up to 24 hours. Rooms are nice w/fridge, expresso machine. Be nice if there was a microwave. Restaurant in hotel was great. Celebrated our anniversary. Definitely recommend and will visit again.

My dog Nola really loves coming to Bark Social Baltimore. She has had a birthday party here and we go at least once a week. Their food is really good and it’s fun every season. They also recently just got a large splash pad for the dogs which is awesome! I also wanted to leave a review for Rory and DJ! They're here every time we come and they are very attentive and move very quickly when there is a scuffle. They work really well as a team! I also wanted to mention Hannah for her awesome customer service and her friendliness! Also if you wanted to come and check it out you can get a day pass for $11!

Bark Social is a unique and fun space for dog owners that allows them to relax and drink a beverage and have some food while their dogs play and are monitored by Bark Rangers. All dogs have to be fixed and fully vaxxed to be allowed in, which gives peace of mind for doggy play. The staff is very nice and will remember the names of returning dogs and owners. My high points: -Friendly Staff - big space -covered and heated area for year round visitors. - beer wall and weekly events like trivia. My low points: - the food is overall pretty mediocre and some items are particularly overpriced. It's not bad by any means, but if most items dropped by $3-$6 bucks it would be more reasonable for what you are getting which is essentially concession stand food out of microwaves or toasters. -rule enforcements need to be more strictly followed. The staff is very nice, and sometimes, that can be a double-edged sword. I've had problems where my girl dog gets followed around by a male dog looking to hump her and the staff do nothing but keep separating it when it happens. Online, Bark Social's website says repeat offending dogs will be asked to leave. I've never seen that happen and usually it's the dog parents like me who get offended for their own pup that leave earlier than expected. I wish they would keep better track of problematic dogs and actually tell the owners to leave and try again tomorrow or something similar. I'm not asking them to ban owners right away, but there should be like a 3 strike rule that after 3 incidents in one visit they are asked to leave, and then their account gains a mark, and if an account gains 3 marks in a 6 month period of time then their account is suspended or revoked. Given how much a yearly membership costs, I don't think it's too much to ask! Given all I have said, I still think Bark Social is worth it. It's going to be safer and cleaner than a public dog park, you have more eyes on your dog, and it's a great way to meet others in the area. I probably only experience the issues I stated above once every four visits.

I love the Baltimore Bark Social hands down. My baby always has a blast and looks forward to going every time. The staff pays close attention to all the dogs and separating any rough play to prevent any issues. Everything is always clean with no odors. If you have a dog that loves to be around other dogs this is the place to go.

Amazing outdoor dog park. Plenty of shade, and seating. If the weather gets a bit rainy, you can sit under their cupboard patio while you have something to drink from their beer wall or their food menu. The dog park attendants were very quick to pick up any poo an owner might have missed and put out lots of ice cubes for the dog and gave them lots of love and attention. The dogs were very well behaved and they even have doggie daycare. They also have a dog merchandise store as well. The only negative once you have to create an account for a first-time member, which was a lengthy 10 plus minute process. First time visitors get in free after creating an account.

I came here on the weekend after they opened and I have great things to say about it. The staff here is very friendly, the amenities are clean and well taken care of, and the seating and space seemed plenty (granted I came here on a drizzling day). I also felt that the place was safe for our dog and others. My wife and I bought the monthly membership which seemed like a good price for such a nice space. We definitely plan on coming back here often. The only negative comment I have is that I thought the prices of the drinks were a little high, especially considering I already paid to get in.

Whoever thought of this is a genius. I was very impressed by the rules and precautions in place to make this an enjoyable experience for all the dogs and humans. The entry cost (per dog, not human) is fair, there's plenty of drink (alcohol, non-alcoholic) and food options (though it did honestly appear a little overpriced), and several different seating options. It was really nice being able to not have to watch our Shiba too closely because there are staff in place to monitor everything. The dogs have free range of the space, which has covered, outdoor, and indoor areas. There is a small pen for smaller dogs, and a shop with lots of different and very cute apparel and pet items. Kids / babies are allowed, BUT parents do be aware: it was very difficult to let my toddler freely roam without a dog instantly getting in his face or jumping on him, no matter where we sat (on the stair-like seating, on top of the picnic tables, on the ground, etc.). We wouldn't bring him back not because there was anything wrong with the business or something happened, I just personally didn't feel comfortable not having a space for him without dogs I don't personally know all over him.

Great space for our pups and humans to catch up. I enjoyed this space as I was visiting with my cousin and her pup. The staff here are friendly and welcoming. The space is clean and inviting.

I thought it was pleasant. However, my husband and I were taken off guard that you have to apply, get approved and pay $35/yr for a membership! Has a lot to offer, but be prepared to “pay to play”. If you want to come here, submit your approval well before hand, not same day. (Tour the grounds before you spend your money.)

I love the park. Everyone is so friendly and respectful. I love that the dog park is members only. It ensures the safety of the dogs in there. I don't want aggressive dogs in there. I hear horrible stories about dog parks, not here. If you want to join its $30/yr and a application. It's not hard. For everyone who says they didn't know its right on the paw point website. Not the parks fault you didn't read it before coming. There are some nice trails you can walk your dogs on. I'm a fan! It's pretty big place

My dog's favorite weekend spot! He loves the company, the swimming and the playing! It's a very clean location. Water and doggie bags included... Just wish everyone would be courteous enough to clean up after their own dog instead of me having to do it for them so I can play Frisbee without having to worry about it landing in a pile. Wish the swim area was a tad bit bigger and a little more sloped like a boat dock instead of the rocks, which my dog finds uncomfortable to walk on and navigate.

This is the best dog park I have been to. It's large, well-maintained, and the surrounding nature scenery is beautiful. You have to sign up to be a member, but it's worth it. It has fenced-in lake access for your dog to swim.

Very disappointed! Members only and need a code to get in! This fact isn’t advertised anywhere except after the half mile walk from your car to the dog park gate. And if you think you’ll just play with your dog outside of the park, leash laws are strictly enforced. Not really a welcoming place for a dog and her ball. This place needs to be advertised as a private dog park because that’s what it is.

Our dogs always have fun here. Well worth the annual membership. It's a huge space for dogs to to run and swim.

This park is good and I like to go to it all the time and find it relaxing and calm

What an amazing national treasure and a great place to spend an afternoon with friends or family. Walking through the Fort transports you back in time and gives you an overwhelming feeling of national pride. Not to mention, the film documentary at the end of your visit has a truly special surprise at the ending you don’t expect! Do yourself a favor if you’re in Baltimore and go visit Fort McHenry.

Short but informative video to start the tour. Rangers are very knowledgeable about the fort's history. I arrived in time for the flag changing ceremony, which they allow guests to help participate in. Lovely views of the harbor from the fort or walking trails.

SO MUCH FUN! I went for a school field trip, and it did not disappoint. We walked the whole thing, and I loved the preservation of old rooms. My favorite was the one execution cell. The place has high educational value, but it's also a good exercise and it's very interesting. I would love to go again with my family. It was so pretty.

Our family of four had a great visit. We purchased tickets for the shrine, kids were free. Visitor Center has interactive exhibits and 20 min video thats worth staying until the end. Decent gift shop, no food or cafe to speak of. The grounds, views, restorations, rangers, history, and setting are all amazing.

Had an awesome experience learning about Fort McHenry and the buildup to the battle that inspired the Star Spangled Banner. Started off in the visitor center and watch the film and look at all the information panels. Going outside gives you amazing views of the bay, and exploring the fort is an awesome experience. Each building has information about the fort and it's history. I would absolutely come back and would recommend others do the same.

The NPS Rangers' lack of enthusiasm at this site prevents us from giving it a 5th star. You have to pay extra to walk out to the fort and take a self-guided tour. During our visit, the temperature was extremely high at around 98°F, which may explain the absence of reenactments or ranger-led tours; however, the rangers were still present at the site. The fort's rangers were just standing in the shade, maybe due to the heat. They could have been giving some kind of presentation or talk. We did not get a discount due to the heat, but the experience of being at the historical location was well worth the 4 stars.

One of the nicest fort we have been to. Very clean and well maintained. The staff are excellent and very informative. We got to watch the flag raising which was very interactive as well as informative. Great historical place that was worth the visit. Gift shop was nice as well.

This is a truly wonderful museum. A true gem of Baltimore. The collection is very large and varied art and artifacts from all parts of the world and including European and American pieces and eastern art as well. The displays are very professional and accessible and the staff always very friendly. And, it’s FREE! I have found that parking in the general area is easy to find and not expensive. If you find yourself in Baltimore make time to visit this beautiful museum.

One of the best museums I've ever been to. It starts from the very entrance: they have that beautiful idea with the cards to make your own tour around the museum. Moreover, wherever you go, you see a lot of materials next to the exhibits which give you plenty of ideas and information for a deeper insight. I loved it! And of course, their collection is just overwhelming! There are so many exhibits and all of them are well displayed in intelligently organized spaces. It's the only museum I didn't go to its cafe. There was no time for it. I wanted to squeeze as much as I could from every minute of my being there. Highly recommended to all art-lovers!

It's a gorgeous museum with great art pieces. They have a cool medieval like staircase too. My boyfriend and I got through the museum within abt 2-3 hours, but that's because we skimmed through mostly and stopped to look at and read about the pieces we found most captivating. If you're the type to stop and look at every piece, plan for more time. 😉 I also saw a woman with a wheelchair making her way around the museum so I assume it's atleast somewhat accessible. And it's all free!

The Walters Art Museum is an exceptional center for those who love art, particularly art that spans across thousands of years. I would recommend to start from the upper floor (4th floor) and work one's way down. The fourth floor houses the collection of East Asian items from China, Japan, India, and the Middle East. The collection spans thousands of years of eastern art, and includes manuscripts, ceramics, burial treasures, and many other items. The third floor contains the prized medieval collection which is one of the greatest collections of medieval art in the United States. There are sections that indicate Early Byzantine, Early Medieval, and Gothic eras. There is also an exhibit dedicated to how cats are represented in manuscripts. There is also a representation of a venetian home from the late medieval era, showcasing a merchant's collection that they could accumulate. The third floor also consists of Renaissance and Baroque art. These are mostly from Italy, and have sections for each century of Italian art. The second floor is dedicated to the ancient world as well as armor and collection displays. the ancient section includes art from Ancient Egypt, the Ancient Near East, Ancient Greece, and Ancient Rome. All are detailed and give one an idea of the living and dying rituals of the past. The armor collection is a nice touch, having armor mostly from Germany from the Renaissance that is highly decorative. There is a collector's room that details how a person from the 17th Century would house their collections. There is also a wonder room that showcases how one would collect items in the Early Modern Era. There is also a representation of a Dutch home filled with Dutch art primarily from the 17th Century. The first floor houses the temporary exhibit. This year, the exhibit details the mummification practices of various animals. The museum shop also has a variety of prints, mugs, stickers, books pertaining to their collection, journals, and jewelry that reflects the items in their collection. In terms of accessibility, there are elevators and even wheelchair lifts in spots so that everyone can see their entire collection. There is no fee to get in as of 2025, but you do have to pay around twenty dollars for parking across the street from the entrance. Overall, this is a must see if you are in the Baltimore area, and be sure to donate as they rely on donations to keep the place running for free for all visitors.

The Walters was the first place I visited after checking into my hotel around the corner. It’s a beautiful building with a great collection of art from all over the world. It’s easy to get through on a 2-3 hour visit and open until 8 on Thursday evenings.

What an excellent installation. Absolutely terrific artwork, sculptures, and great rotating exhibits. Highly reccomend for all ages, and good budget option for a great couple of hours in downtown Baltimore.

Very nice museum. The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. I definitely recommend checking them out. Add this spot to your list of free things to do in Baltimore!

Had a wonderful time at Historic Ships in Baltimore! The tour was informative and well-organized. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly, making the experience even better. The ships are beautifully preserved and offer a unique glimpse into history. Definitely worth a visit for history enthusiasts and families alike!

Ships were neat to see and walk around inside. The USS Constellation was my favorite you can walk all through it. They have a cutter that was in the battle for Pearl Harbor which was awesome to see. The submarine was neat to walk through but watch your head! Would be neat to see more people in and around the ships to point out some neat things you might not usually see.

Our grandson loves ships and planes so we took him to Baltimore's Inner Harbour on Sat July 26, 2025. . We hit the science center and then toured the ships at the Harbour. Each ticket consisted of 4 ships to tour. Adult price was $22 each. Children 5 and under are free... I told the the guy at the counter we need two adult tickets and our grandson is 5. Before the guy could even push a button.... our grandson was like " no, I'm 6 pop". OK lol I guess he's 6 now. Lmfao. So, since I didn't save $10 lol our total was about $53. The tickets are for your own self guided tour of 4 ships. Unfortunately, we only did 3 of them. The Constellation, the Chesapeake Lightship and the U.S.S Tursk Submarine. The ships were really cool to see. Our grandson loved it! The Constellation has very narrow floors. Im 6'3 and literally had to walk through it with more than my head down. It's nice to see what things looked like on the boat. The beds , the cabins, the kitchen area and so forth. Some tiny rooms had 5 beds in it!! Im not sure that 5 normal people could even stand in the room at once. Im tall and slim and in no way, could I could have survived. I guess most guys back then were small lol. The Submarine was really interesting. Please be aware, if your over 6'5 , over 200 lbs or over 60 years old this may not be for you. It is small to maneuver through and requires some good hand - eye coordination and some good bones lol. The Chesapeake Lightship was the only one that seemed to have room to walk through. However, all of them had some small steep steps. Please be careful not to hit your head. From the top of the ships you are presented with some nice views. We didnt encounter many other people there. Maybe a few but not many. It was over 95 degrees the day we went so there wasnt a ton of people outside like us lol. The tickets last all day I believe. You can take pictures, read all the information boards, move slow and take your time if you can. Im rating the historic ships of Baltimore tours a 5 out of 5 stars. It was worth the money... especially if your able to tour all 4 ships.

Probably the most unique and the best-value-for-money attraction in Baltimore. For an entry fee of 22 dollars you can visit 4 different warships at your time of convenience. The order of ships staring from the best in my opinion are: USS Torsk (submarine), USS Constellation (a sail-only warship), U.S Coast Guard Cutter (USCGC) 37, and LS-116 Chesapeake (a lightship). Visiting a submarine's interior would be a first experience for many. USS Constellation with all its majestic cannons was a great feast to the eyes. USS Constellation still does a demo of firing a cannon - of course, it is done without a projectile. We took 3 days, in between visiting other attractions, to visit all 4 ships. Their flexible entry rules also makes it interesting when you visit each ship, and also keeps sensory overload and fatigue at bay (no pun intended?).

No wait and had most of the ship to myself. Was able to spend time reading all the stories. Ship was in excellent shape, restrooms were clean and a good giftshop. They have a pass for 25 bucks to see 4 ships in the bay, I highly reccomend doing that it was a great value.

This was beyond fantastic. It was so historically interesting. The guides on each ship were very friendly and happy to answer any questions we had. We didn't have time to hit all four ships, but what's awesome is that we have up to a year to go back and catch what we didn't see. It is a bit of a hike, so wear comfy walking shoes. But its totally worth every step!

The Historic Ships in Baltimore is an incredible stop for anyone interested in maritime history, and visiting during Fleet Week made the experience even better. One of the most fascinating ships on display is the Chesapeake, a former lighthouse ship that played a crucial role in guiding vessels through dangerous waters. Built in 1930, the Chesapeake braved some of the fiercest storms, including a hurricane in 1936 where the anchor chain snapped, forcing the crew to drop a spare anchor and run full steam ahead just to stay on station. It’s amazing to think about the skill and bravery required to serve on such a vessel in these conditions. The ships themselves are well-preserved, and walking along the decks gives you a real sense of their history. The Chesapeake, with its advanced diesel-electric power and signaling technology for the time, ensured the safety of countless ships over the decades. For national park passport collectors, they even have stamps for the ships, which adds a fun touch to the visit. The whole experience was well worth it, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting Baltimore. Whether you’re a history buff or just looking for something unique to do, you can’t go wrong with the Historic Ships Museum. They also had a submarine and other older clipper ships.

We had our micro wedding with 21 attendees at Woodberry Kitchen in March 2025. We got married on the patio and had our reception inside. We could not have picked a better venue for our wedding - it was the perfect size, price, etc. Woodberry Kitchen is the whole package for weddings and events. Everyone who came to our wedding talked about how wonderful the wedding and venue was - aesthetically pleasing and intimate with amazing food. Jolanta was great to work with throughout the planning process and listened to all of our requests and concerns, and Amanda was fantastic the day of the event, making sure everything went smoothly. If you're getting married or hosting an event in Baltimore, Woodberry Kitchen is a no-brainer for your dream venue!

First, I would say it started off great. I couldn't find the restaurant because I didn't see the name of the building, but the waitress was friendly enough to meet us outside. The restaurant has a rustic feel to it. It's not fancy on the inside, but it has brick walls, hence an old mill. The menu is limited, but I did order a drink. I had the deviled eggs, which is only one egg cut in half. I had the salad, and steak. Honestly, it wasn't my preferred cut, so I only had one piece of the steak. The taste of the food was somewhat bland.For some reason, once the food order was placed, I saw the waitress, but I had to get another waiter to help with some other things, including my dessert. My dessert was the best part of the meal, and please note that an automatic 20% gratuity was added regardless of the party size. I would recommend this location for venue only. The wedding party seems to be the only thing that was a success.

We had an amazing dinner at The Tavern at Woodberry Kitchen. Our reservation was for two at 8:30 PM, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. We started with the short rib empanadas, which were rich, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. The young lettuce salad was light and fresh, and the Everything Spring Salad, while more of a side dish than a traditional salad, was still delicious. The grilled zucchini in it really stood out. For mains, we had the fish and chips, with catfish as the fish of choice. It was delicate, perfectly cooked, and paired with crispy, well-seasoned fries. We also had the tavern steak frites cooked to your choice of doneness, and it was tender, flavorful, and satisfying. The blackberry mojitos were refreshing and perfectly balanced. It's definitely a cocktail we’d order again. Dessert was the chocolate cake, rich and indulgent, and a perfect way to end the night. Our server was friendly, attentive, and very knowledgeable, not just about the menu but also about the restaurant’s history and the neighborhood. Highly recommend this spot for a relaxed evening with great food, drinks, and thoughtful service.

As a wedding photographer, I’ve had the opportunity to work at quite a few venues, but few stand out as clearly and memorably as Woodberry Kitchen. From the moment you walk in, the space feels warm, textured, and effortlessly elegant. The rich character of the brick walls and bistro lights paired with natural light streaming through large windows, creates the perfect canvas for timeless, romantic images. Every corner of the venue offers something visually compelling. What truly elevates this venue beyond its aesthetic is the team behind it. The venue coordinators are not only organized and attentive to the couple’s needs, but they also go out of their way to support the vendors. As a photographer, it makes a huge difference when the staff is communicative, flexible with timelines, and genuinely kind. Their collaborative attitude ensures that the day flows smoothly, allowing everyone to do their best work while keeping the focus on the couple’s experience. And let’s not forget the food—absolutely outstanding. I can't wait to bring my husband here for dinner. Often, vendor meals are an afterthought, but here, the team makes sure that we are fed and if it doesn't work in our timeline, they pack it up in to-go boxes for us. The food is always a highlight in its own right. This venue is a dream for photographers and a treasure for couples. I can’t recommend it highly enough—for its beauty, for its team, and for the exceptional experience it creates for everyone involved. Can't wait to be back! The incredible florals in these images are by Gott Efni or Yarrow Floral Co.

The atmosphere at Tavern at Woodberry is so relaxing — you instantly feel at home. The building itself is gorgeous and gives off such a warm, cozy vibe. Their wine list and beer selection are thoughtfully curated, focusing on local and sustainable options, which I really appreciate. We started with the board — a perfect sampler — and the greens were fresh and crisp. The burger was top-notch: full of flavor, perfectly cooked, and paired with fries that were cut and seasoned just right. Dessert definitely had that “wow” presentation, though it wasn’t our favorite flavor-wise. Grateful for the warm, friendly service and such a tasty highlight to the weekend. 🍷🍔✨

Visited here for a rheumatology conference. So we had the back room in the back patio available to us. Beautiful location with ample space however, the table seating was a little bit tight. The service staff was incredibly friendly and was always refilling drinks and bringing around more option for food.For dinner, we had the chicken and the rockfish. Both were cooked perfectly, but the portions were rather small, so could have used a little bit more to eat. The flourless chocolate cake was good, but I’ve definitely had a more decadent flourless chocolate cake elsewhere.

It was our first dining experience here, and it lived up to the online reviews. Service was fast and attentive......thanks Char! Tried several seasonal cocktails, and they all were enjoyable. The food was flavorful. The stuffed eggplant stood out by itself. The coppa steak could have been plated with a starch and the savory crab pie with some greens. The choices for table sides were limited. Definitely will be back!

Baltimore Museum of Art – A Cultural Treasure Open Late Thursday! 🎨🌙 Visited the Baltimore Museum of Art on a Thursday evening, and what a treat! The museum stays open until 9pm (Thursday Only), making it the perfect spot for some post-work art immersion. ✨ Highlights of the Visit: From Rodin's iconic "The Thinker" to Monet’s dreamy brushwork, the collection spans continents, centuries, and galaxies of imagination. Loved the contrast between classic beauty and modern curiosity—you’ll wander from tranquil Buddhist sculptures to experimental abstract forms that challenge perception. The African and Indigenous art rooms are not to be missed—bold, spiritual, and incredibly powerful. 📸 Excellent photo ops throughout. Whether you're drawn to the quiet power of a bronze sculpture or the chaos of contemporary color, the Force is visually strong here. 🚗 Parking was super reasonable at just $9 after 5pm—a rare find for a museum of this caliber. Easy to access and well-marked. 🕘 Extended hours = quiet magic. The evening vibe is calm, uncrowded, and contemplative—ideal for art lovers and peace-seeking wanderers alike. With free admission to the main collection and plenty of space to roam, this place is a gem—whether you’re a casual visitor or a Force-sensitive art sage.

A must-see in Baltimore! The Baltimore Museum of Art offers an impressive and thoughtfully curated collection. The Cone Collection is especially stunning — a true gem with extensive works by Matisse, Picasso, and Van Gogh. I also enjoyed seeing pieces by Georgia O’Keeffe, Monet, Klimt, Gauguin, Botticelli, Raphael, and Sir Joshua Reynolds. The galleries are spacious, peaceful, and well-lit, allowing you to take your time and really experience the art. The museum store is well-stocked with unique, themed gifts and books — perfect for thoughtful souvenirs. A top-notch experience, and free admission is a bonus!

The BMA has an attractive collection of paintings, statues and other beautiful pieces from around the globe. I really enjoyed seeing pieces by Monet, Degas, Rembrandt and Botticelli to name a few. Entry is free except for certain exhibitions and open until late on Thursday evening.

It's a nice museum, especially for a free one. Not very big, easy to cover in an afternoon. Lovely variety of exhibits.

The BMA is a Baltimore and mid-Atlantic treasure! This museum- with its thoughtful, perceptive, and equitable representation healed all the art school BS I experienced in the late 90s. Free and open to the public, every exhibit that I have seen there has been moving, potent, and restorative. I will return again and again - and will be purchasing a membership. Can't celebrate the creative and community work they do at the BMA enough! Check it out!

A good art museum. They have a few unassuming Picassos, Van Goughs, and Matisses. The galleries well organized and kept clean and appealing. I also liked the art galleries curated to show art works from different continents.

To pass some time for an event I was attending in the BMA, I sat in their East Lobby. I then noticed certain things (within that area) that caught my attention. Next to me on the bench was a bead-encrusted figurine. On parts of the ceiling, I saw brood X cicadas (they were encased in something). Hanging from the ceiling was a figure within a cocoon and it was in a multi-tiered chandelier. I later discovered it is part of an exhibit by artist Raúl de Nieves. I didn't catch everything in the lobby, so you'll have to check it out for yourself. The overall display is pretty neat and is there until December 2026.

What a fantastic learning experience for kids and adults. Such great exhibits to expand children's understanding of the world around them and get them learning and having fun at the same time. Worth the trip. My 12 and 8 year old boys enjoyed their time here.

overall best experience - we went to a show with Jalen and Emily and they made our entire day, we got to explore a lot, and ended up sewing monsters with the help of jessie. everyone there went above and beyond when we needed help with things and everyone was extremely knowledgeable when we had questions. this experience has me wanting to buy their seasonal pass for the year

Went as a chaperone for a kindergarten school trip. The kids had a blast. Three floors of areas the kids could explore from the dino exhibit, kinetic energy, and more. There was more than enough for the kids to stay engaged for several hours and parents as well.

This is a nice-sized science museum to explore. There are three full levels of exhibits, as well as a planetarium. There is a cafe, eating area, and gift shop. You could easily spend most of the day here. And it is in a lovely, scenic area of kf the inner harbour.

I am very disappointed with science center. Me and my daughter which is homeschooled bought tickets to event but got the days mixed up. Now on any given day the museum is pretty much empty.. the homeschool events we have attend ended …which they claim to sell out fast had about 3 other homeschool in them. For a museum that pretty much need good reviews and more attendance seems to me would be a bit more accommodating and understanding. But no they weren’t. No exchanges offered… forget a refund which I was no asking for. So sorry have a good day is pretty much what they told us. Would not recommend paying to come here… so disappointing.

Parking was a little tricky but we found public parking down the road by the restaurant near the water. It was a few minutes walking distance. I think we picked a day where many schools scheduled a field trip at the end of the school year. It was a zoo with kids running around all over the place with not enough adult chaperones. We made the best of it.

The Maryland Science Center is Way Cool ! Dinosaur Lovers expect the best in excitement. Many fine details including the electric exhibits what an hair raising opportunity. Fun for everyone just a very exciting place.

A small but really nice zoo. The old (no longer used) exhibits up front are a cool piece of history. Some areas need updating but the newer exhibits are clearly well thought out & spacious. The penguin area was especially nice. If only it had been a bit cooler for our visit! (See our prairie dog photo for a good example of the heat.)

We love this Zoo! I’ve been going since I was a child and now sharing the zoo with my kids brings back so many memories. I love the “walk through the zoo’s past” to see the small cages they once were held to compare to the large habitats that have been created. Free parking is a plus. Food is a bit expensive but they offer gluten free options which was a nice surprise. Looking forward to another trip in November, they offer free field trips to homeschoolers which we are finally taking advantage of. Great way to spend the day outdoors learning about the animals and observing them.

To begin with, there is a long walk from the gate to see the animals. There seemed to be a lot of construction and renovation happening to the exhibits. Due to this, there seemed to be quite a few animals off exhibit. Most habitats only had 1 or 2 animals in them. The zoo was clean and fun, just not sure it's worth visiting again.

I legitimately love this zoo. I have only come here a few times in my life and the previous time I was here was years ago but honestly I had a lot of fun this time around. They have so many interesting animals, historical architecture, a pretty nice train ride and even some really well themed sections. It’s very clear they’re going out of their way to modernize and do what’s best for these animals. I did see One elephant that looked like he wasn’t doing so well but The zoo is probably still doing what they can to take care of the poor creature. I wholeheartedly recommend checking out this zoo even if the area around the park doesn’t look particularly the safest. Then again that’s the case with a lot of good zoos. I will definitely come again.

We come to this zoo most years and always enjoy ourselves. This year had some extra exhibits closed for maintenance and new ones in the works but we still have a good time anyways. The pending we're very active this year, and we saw the baby giraffe which was nice too. The polar bears have bears have been missing for a few years so that is the most disappointing, but otherwise worth a trip.

The only issue is they need more animals, other than that this is the cleanest zoo I have ever been too ! The food was fresh and delicious, the rides and outside activities were up and active, face painting, toy riding, penguin shows , all kinds of great stuff that not only kids would enjoy but so would adults. I had a bawl and would be back for sure. Also you can purchase your tickets in person & use them for your next visit 😉

My family had a wonderful time at the zoo! We got to see some wonderful animals that aren't in zoos around our area. Admission was a bit pricey but snacks and drinks weren't too badly priced. We did stop at Oasis Food and Drink by the giraffes and elephants for snacks and drinks. They were out of a lot of stuff or things weren't working. The guy that was running the register was doing everything while a guy stood to the back and only messed with putting pretzels in the cooker. Overall a wonderful day seeing animals and learning about them!

Boy, was Cinghiale a surprise—in the best way. We were visiting from Washington, D.C. over Labor Day weekend for a quick getaway to recharge and celebrate a birthday. We tried several different restaurants during our stay, but this one was hands down our favorite. We debated where to go given its proximity to Little Italy and all the options there, but choosing Cinghiale turned out to be the best decision. They offer different menus depending on the experience you’re after—whether a more casual à la carte option or a prix fixe—and both looked amazing. The atmosphere is fantastic. It’s tucked away from the busiest streets, so dining outside is peaceful, close to the water, and great for people-watching. Inside, the white-tablecloth wine room is elegant, and even the regular dining room and bar looked inviting. We opted for outdoor seating and had a quiet, comfortable night. Service was outstanding—truly the best we had anywhere in Baltimore. Our server was warm, attentive, and full of energy. She gave thoughtful recommendations that really shaped our meal and even surprised us with a birthday glass of wine paired with our entrée, plus a candle with dessert. Those personal touches made the night feel special. And the food? Spectacular across the board. The stone fruit salad and tomato-mozzarella salad were both refreshing and beautifully presented. The duck was incredibly tender and perfectly cooked. The stuffed pasta dishes were rich, flavorful, and a highlight of the evening. From appetizers through dessert, everything was balanced, thoughtful, and made with pride. We walked away with zero complaints—just full appreciation for an incredible experience. Cinghiale set the bar high, and we’ll absolutely return on our next visit to Baltimore.

What a pleasant lunch surprise! Cinghiale just started serving lunch and they had a well curated menu that even included desserts. I enjoyed my visit so much, I invited a friend to join me. I would strongly recommend them for a solo, duo or group lunch visit. At this time, they offer this lunch special Tuesday-Friday from 11:30am-2:00pm. I will definitely be visiting again. Gracie Cinghiale and well done!

This was one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in Baltimore! The staff were absolutely amazing from the moment we walked in until we left. We were celebrating our one-year wedding anniversary, and as a same-sex couple, things can be a bit unpredictable, but we were greeted with such a welcoming and friendly atmosphere. The food was just unforgettable. We also never found ourselves with an empty glass. The portions were the perfect size. We could tell it was all made with care and fresh, high-quality ingredients. I can see how some things might not fit everyone’s palette, so make sure you check the menu before you go. We have absolutely no complaints. We had a great time and can’t wait to share our experience with anyone who’s interested.

Dining at Cinghiale in Baltimore was a memorable experience that blended elegance with warmth. From the moment I walked in, the golden lighting, soft chatter, and candlelit tables created an inviting atmosphere that felt both refined and comfortable. My wife and I attended the Cinghiale Opera Salon, and it was truly a one-of-a-kind evening — the live opera intertwined beautifully with the meal, making each course feel like part of a story. The service was attentive, the pacing thoughtful, and the food exceptional. Every dish reflected care and authenticity, from the perfectly tender pasta to the rich flavors that spoke of true Italian tradition.

We just had our wedding at Cinghiale, and it was absolutely fantastic. From start to finish, the staff went above and beyond to make everything perfect. The food was incredible—every course beautifully prepared by Juan David and served with care, and the service was seamless all evening. The atmosphere was elegant yet warm, and our guests couldn’t stop talking about how amazing everything was. Planning and communication with Abbe Gould was smooth and professional, and on the day of the wedding, she and the entire executed every detail flawlessly. If you’re looking for a venue that combines exceptional food, impeccable service, and a truly special ambiance, Cinghiale delivers in every way. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience on our wedding day.

Excellent service and atmosphere! They make sure you are well taken care of and everything is seamless. However, the reason for the 2 stars is because of the food. The food is mid at best. I had the lasagna and it was bland and underwhelming. The charcuterie cheeses tasted cheap like they went to Walmart or something and got them. Again, beautiful restaurant by the water and excellent wait staff. The food just sucks.

We came to the harbor to visit. We ended up wanting to eat dinner, so we found this restaurant on Google. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted and sat down quickly. Our server Matt was phenomenal! Jake, the manager, was very professional and helpful as well! The food was really good! The short room was so good that I had two orders! The ice cream with espresso was incredible! We would definitely come back here again. As you walk in they have a station where they prepare cheese and Salamis. I was really excited to try that out until I saw the guy prepping eating a couple of bites which turned me off instantly. That was the only negative thing. I did bring it up to the manager and told him to talk with the worker to prevent that from happening again.

1rst impressions is lots to eat and see every vendor takes pride in what they are serving and and love what they do only problem I had was I ordered a crab cakes from fadleys and just picked a random spot to eat it based on previous markets I have been too Like Pikes Place in Seattle,Reading terminal Market in Philly and Historic Market in South Carolina,All great Markets and food and people so, when I say I just picked a random spot to eat in had no idea a sloppy, ignorant,miserable vendor would tell me I cant eat here,then proceeded to make a comment about me also having fadleys which I was eating at the time, little did he know my wife actually was deciding pizza or tacos so I told her screw his pizza and I was on vacation nice customer service.Other than that very cool vendor I had also grabbed Some great food from Sweet Peas Southern Kitchen friendly fast and great soul food

This is such a great market to be in with a good selections of quality restaurants including delicious fried chicken, fresh juice shop, large bakery, mini donuts, fresh seafood and meats, candy shop, and more. Atmosphere: open, spacious, not super clean but not bad, and it’s visible the staff are actively cleaning after people made mess in bathrooms, on the steps or in the eating area. This is a generally safe place, but still, stay alert to your surroundings. Value: good price on most of the foods we ordered included sandwiches from sunnyside, fried chicken and liver from super fried chicken or pastries from the market bakery. Service: friendly people from staff to shop owners. Location: convenient, with many options of parking garage and street parkings. Definitely recommend.

Haven't been to Lexington Market maybe since 2010. So to see it remodeled, it looked Amazing. Definitely a vibe. I love that they have all different cultures of food. I will most certainly be back!

Haven't been in years and I see why. Some of my favorite spots are gone. Parks fried chicken is outside across the street now and a 4 piece chicken box with fries costs 10$ !!!...... Chicken boxes used to be accessible to poor people....smh

Fun place to walk around and explore different food options. We ate a Faidley's and also had a crapdip covered pretzel and downstairs had berger cookies. Wish I had bought more than one! The neighborhood was the only place we were approached for money and cigarettes,but otherwise we enjoyed the market. People inside were kind other than at Faidley's.

I remember as a kid, my mom used to bring me here. Now, about 50 years later, I came to check this place out. It’s in a new location but you can still find plenty of choices to eat and purchase fresh seafood. Got a little bit turned around finding this place. Even though we were in downtown Baltimore and the areas and folks looked a bit rough, they were friendly and helpful.

I went here to have breakfast and walked around checking out the other businesses. There is plenty to choose from and the prices are really reasonable. I tried Sunny Side Cafe, B'more Twist, and Super Fried Chicken. You won't be disappointed!

Sat outside on a cool night in August. Hard to believe it was such great weather. Ordered shrimp tacos, Brussels sprouts and yucca fries. All of the food was excellent! I would come here again!

We celebrated a private engagement party at Barcocina and it was such a wonderful experience! The atmosphere was intimate yet lively, and the personalized touch of having the couple’s slideshow playing on the bar screens made the night feel extra special. The food was fantastic. I especially loved the queso and the fresh guacamole. The cauliflower taco had a nice “sweet” flair to it, too! We sampled every flavor of margarita (highly recommend doing the same if you go!), and while all were tasty, the smoky margarita was my personal favorite, followed closely by the spicy margarita. For dessert, we indulged in their churros, which were absolutely divine. On top of all that, the view from their patio is stunning and really adds to the overall vibe. Whether you’re stopping by for a night out or looking for the perfect venue for a private celebration, I highly recommend Barcocina enough.

Service: Came to Barcocina with some friends for a night out and dinner. It came highly recommended and had great reviews online. We were seated quickly, which was a nice surprise, and had a lovely view of the water. The waiter was friendly and shared some of her favorite dishes, which helped us narrow down our choices. Taste: Everything we ordered was delicious. The birria duck tacos were full of flavor and a definite favorite. The shrimp pasta was creamy, well seasoned, and perfectly cooked. We started with the tuna tartare, which was fresh and tasty, though it could have used a few more chips on the side. The drinks, from mojitos to wine and cider, were also great complements to the meal. Ambiance: The restaurant has a relaxed yet elegant vibe, with a great view that adds to the experience. It’s a perfect spot for dinner with friends, a date, or just a chill evening out by the water. Overall Review: Barcocina lived up to the hype. The service was kind and efficient, the food was flavorful, and the atmosphere was beautiful. Prices were reasonable for the quality and location. I’ll definitely be back and would recommend it to anyone looking for a great waterfront dining experience.

This was such a fun and vibey place, we went on a Saturday evening and half of the place turned into a little day club. If you want to enjoy good food and good ambiance, this is the perfect weekend spot. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly as well. The views from the outside are also amazing with the pier right next to it. They had a couple vegetarian options: cauliflower and mushroom tacos. They were really good, the cauliflower was a little sweeter than I expected but still awesome! Would highly recommend this as a date spot or a place to have a great afternoon dancing away to music while sipping on great cocktails.

We had a lovely time with my family today. The food was splendid. Logan was super nice and attentive, and so was the rest of staff. Thank you guys! :-)

The ambiance and location are really nice. Most of the tacos are pretty average, but the duck birria (available only on the dinner menu) is outstanding.

The place was not busy when we visited for mid week lunch so service was not an issue. We sat at the bar with a great view of the harbor and had a drink one app and tacos 🌮. All were tasty but it wasnt cheap, not super pricey but it was about 42 bucks before tip I belive as I paid for the app. Yucatan fries and one vodka drink, rail, and cheeseburger tacos. Definitely worth a stop in but im sure when its a busy night it can get loud and fun in there im sure.

It’s a fascinating look into a period of time in Edgar Allen Poe’s life. You get to see how he lived & where he wrote. It gives you a history of his family & his work. It’s very well done & we very much enjoyed every aspect of it.

Small, but very interesting house museum. Lots of great information about Poe and his time in Baltimore. Great peek into 1830's home life of lower middle class. Can't wait to see how museum expands. The reservation system works very well

This is a small but fun part of Poe history. We actually made a day trip into Baltimore to see it (We’re from the Midwest, visiting D.C.). We almost didn’t because of the reviews about the neighborhood, we’d never been to Baltimore before, but it was fine. Maybe it was worse years ago, but I felt I needed to at least review the part that almost kept us from coming. Everyone has a different idea of “bad”, however, we had zero issues and I’ve seen really “bad” areas in Atlanta, Indianapolis, and Chicago, this was nothing compared to that. If you practice common sense… you’ll be fine! Anyway, the staff was friendly and you can tell that they care about Edgar Allan Poe! Our visit started with info of the outside and the area. We moved inside and the staff was available for questions… but also had facts to give. It’s not a real tour, as it’s just too small, but the staff seemed knowledgeable. There are actual Poe artifacts there… and he did live there, regardless what some negative reviews claim. It is small, but to go is to love Poe, history, or both. There’s plenty to read and just seeing a period house is cool enough! I think that if you love Poe… you should go! The history of him and the area is cool. It’s not a huge place but pair it with a quick trip to his grave… and it’s definitely something neat for a Poe fan! We were also told that they will be expanding… so in the future it will even be better!

We were there during Poe Fest and really enjoyed the rapper performing Poe poems as well as the dramatic presentation done by a puppet. The costumes worn by someone the attendees were great at well. The costumed parade was fun too. We had a great time.

Great Author poet... Neat history, building additional parts, was there anniversary of death... Had EA Poe festival going on very fun

Step back in time and get a feel for one of Poe’s creative spaces. Learn about his family tree and life from the knowledgeable guides. It’s a tight space so tours are hourly and limited to about 10-15 people. Reserve ahead of time online. We enjoyed listening to the guide and reading about Poe.

As a Poe fan I had to visit and it did not disappoint. Small, yes, but that's really how it was. No better way to get insight into his life then to see where he lived for a time.

A big group of us came in for dinner on a weeknight... We sat outside, along the water and had decent service. The views and temps were great out there, but the lantern flies are ridiculous and all over. Their menu is very nice and it was hard to decide what to get, but everything we all chose were things we ended up really enjoying. For me, I absolutely loved the ceviche! Probably in my top 5 ever! Their mac & cheese side is also incredible! I tried their grilled shrimp banh mi and it was interesting - nice flavors, fresh, and tasty. Lots of drinks on tap and on their cocktail menu as well. Definitely worth stopping in!

My lady friends took me to dinner for my birthday! We sat outside on a beautiful September evening! Fabulous views of the harbor and Baltimore at night! The food was fantastic and server, Angelo, was awesome! Lobster tails, crab cake sandwich and Chilean sea bass were all delicious - A completely wonderful experience! Would highly recommend!!!❤️❤️

Overall I give this a 3.5* review but Google doesn't allow half stars so rounding up. Nice setting on the harbor, had live music on a Friday night. Inside was a bit loud and I don't think I saw the hostesses smile once. They have an outdoor bar and seating options as well as indoor bar and dining area. I really wanted to like this place but left just feeling meh. Staff was ok, waiter was friendly and helpful. Also, was honest and warned us the crab cream soup was a bit salty, (it was). More on service later. Food was pretty good, but not worth the prices in my opinion. Caesar salad for $18, good size but bland flavor except for the salty parmesan crisps. $66 crab cakes were tasty but not sure that they warrant that price for 2 crab cakes and fries. Moules Frites were good and I'd order that again for $25. However the staff (not our waiter) brought our mains out before we had finished our starters, she just stood there for a second, and then just crammed everything onto our small table. They also wanted to clear our plates while we were actively eating. I think they refilled our water once over the course of our meal? So definitely could do better on the service side.

Bar: There are two moderate televisions at the 18-seat bar if you’re looking for a spot to leisurely watch sports in a mellow afternoon environment. Brunch review: Live music from local favorites Enslow playing an acoustic set and a brunch menu with variety made this a pleasant first experience at Loch Bar. Chance the bartender is incredibly friendly and attentive. Noon: As the sole patron at the bar and only three seated tables, the restaurant is perfectly quiet except for the talented performers. 1:30pm: The bar is filling out and the tables are mostly full so the atmosphere has evolved as the din increased. The cream of crab soup had a satisfying spice to it that warms you up on a rainy winter’s day. The lobster roll, served on a toasted bun, pairs well with the crab soup. Dinner menu review: Go full Baltimore with Cream of Crab soup, an Orange Crush, and crab cakes. Stephen is great behind the bar and will make your visit great. Don’t forget to use the Atlas app for reservations and rewards.

I came here for my Birthday last year and i loved it. Beautiful Astmophere, my server was very nice i had first ordered the Salmon wrap and it was okay and i say that because it was a little too spicy for my liking wit the peppers and i'm not big on spicy foods so that's the only reason why i said it was okay and because i didn't like it they let me choose another dish so i was happy about that and it was delicious. They had someone that was playing the guitar and singing and they gave me a birthday shout out as well as a happy birthday song and that was cool i loved it, and since it was my Birthday they gave me a dessert(Cheesecake) which was delicious and sung Happy Birthday to me. It was really awesome there. I would definitely go back again which i am for my birthday again this year so i highly recommend this restaurant.

While visiting from Upstate NY, my uncle suggested we have lunch here. It did not disappoint! Beautiful restaurant, food was very delicious and well seasoned. Most importantly the service was spectacular. I’m mad I forgot our server’s name because he was definitely one of the best we’ve encountered. Will for sure return again.

4 Seasons Hotel had some really good food for the 4th of July. Crab cakes were awesome and entertainment was top notch.

Great building beautifully restored. Nicely laid out inside, plenty of tables for outside dining. Plethora of menu items, not just coffee. Our cappuccinos were nice and hot. Only negative was it took really long to get just two drinks.

Wow! A cute quaint little restaurant in Baltimore Maryland that serves fresh, delicious, healthy meals. We were delighted to have been invited by our daughter, to “Try something New and Different.” This place did not disappoint. We enjoyed our visit and will definitely visit again soon. Thank you to the staff for accommodating our requests and making sure that we were satisfied and comfortable.

This is a known hidden spot so on weekends there will be a line and not always an available table. The food & coffee took a while but with the crowd that’s going to happen The staff was friendly even in the rush. The chai isn’t mean for chai lovers, it’s neither spicy nor sweet it’s just bland. The food was good, he had no problems with his, the sandwich was good, was disappointed to find the bug but I guess that was natures endorsement 🤷🏼‍♀️

As someone who is vegetarian, this place is absolutely wonderful! I was able to find so many options on their menu. This is the first time coming here (as I am not a Baltimore native) and this will certainly not be the last! Highly recommend getting The Rebel Greens if you’re looking for something filling

I had not been to Artifact for quite a while and I decided to stop there for breakfast with my 10 year old granddaughter. At 9:30 on a Saturday morning, it was easy to get a table outside. My granddaughter order an iced Chai, the biscuit and a side order of bacon (they have the best bacon). I ordered a Japanese ice coffee, and the lox on rye bread with cucumber and a delicious dressing. Everything was perfect and the waitress was delightful.

We drove through Turin on the way to Elva and stopped at Artifact looking for some delicious espresso after having watered down stuff throughout France and this was INCREDIBLE. The owner has multiple kinds of beans and was so helpful and sweet and makes his own pastries. Would 100% come back!

Such a cute local spot. It’s been my go-to Baltimore coffee shop since college. I love the cozy atmosphere here.

I visited before the Gardens were planted and still had a lovely experience. Volunteers and employees were hard at work planting when I arrived. Definitely visit the Nature Center, staff there were great! They have Luna Moths and Grey Tree Frogs on display and the center is very well maintained. I only wish I could have visited on the weekend so I could tour the mansion. I will absolutely be back to see the gardens!

Beautiful arboretum in historical estate location is Baltimore’s largest public garden. Plenty of parking on mid-summer weekday and open nature center with friendly employees. The only miss was inability to tour Cylburn Mansion. There is a choice of paved paths or hiking trails and well-thought out arboretum layout to please an eye. Worthwhile detour from I-95 when passing through Baltimore, free admission was an added bonus.

We went for one of the open house tours in early April. The staff in the mansion and the nature education center were wonderful. They were very knowledgeable about the history of the grounds and the flora and fauna one can find there. Of note, we were immediately greeted by adorable northern mockingbirds at the entrance of the mansion and only continued to see birds and flowers from there. The trails were easy to walk in regular shoes or sandals. There are wheelchair ramps, automatic doors on the education center, and braille labels on the premises. The upper floors of the mansion were not open to the public for tours (on the day we were there).

Definitely not as large as I'd expected. Outside garden waa beautiful, full off bumble bees just minding their business. I wish we'd had a selfie stick/tripod, cause it was a beautiful backdrop for photos.

I spent the day at Cylburn Arboretum for a work retreat, and what a beautiful surprise it turned out to be. The gardens are peaceful and full of quiet charm, every path feels like a small escape into nature. It’s the kind of place that reminds you to slow down, breathe, and notice the beauty around you. Truly a hidden gem in the city.

Beautiful green space and Mansion. I hadn't been in years and went for their Halloween program. The spooky trail was fun as was the night hike. It was a great family outing with food trucks and kid's activities. I would go again if they had an adult only night program.

I didn't get to all the places I wanted to go inside of the arboretum. But what I did see was stunning! I'm obsessed with dahlias and there was a dahlia garden. Absolutely gorgeous. This place is very very well maintained. Lots of walking spaces very very nice place. When I left there was a wedding party gathering for a photo shoot.

Excellent service, intimate atmosphere and delicious food . . . who could ask for anything more? A spontaneous decision to go to lunch turned into an entire afternoon of fun! Besides the staff who were very attentive, we also spent our day seated at the bar engaged in friendly conversations with many other patrons. Everyone was complimenting the generous portions, flavorful food, and specialty cocktails. Each plate that came out looked mouth-watering good and gave us food envy. We will definitely be visiting again to try all of the amazing options!

Best scratch Kitchen . We are so lucky to have this restaurant in our neighborhood. We got our reservations and got seated right away. Colorful decorated . The rib eye were delicious enough to share for 4 people. I love Grits and love Ordering them every time we go down South but Maggie’s Farm are spectacular. Delicious flavor , smooth and enough flavor to complement the Shrimp. The he temperature was perfect and I love the presentation. the Andouille was delicately cut nice size bite Shrimp was perfectly cooked and the spinach melted in your mouth. I’ve ordered a Paloma Spritz which paired the incredibly well with this dish. The Chef came by our table to ask how we liked our food and his wife our server did an amazing job missing our drinks. I can’t wait to go back !

Had the shrimp and grits at Maggie’s Farm and it was fantastic—perfectly seasoned, creamy, and full of flavor. Great atmosphere and friendly service. Definitely coming back!

This is a "must stop" for brunch. Fabulous flavors, generous portions, even the drinks were special. They are not afraid to season their foods. We had three different dishes and they were all cooked and presented delectably.

This hidden gem in the Arcadia Beverly Hills Historic District is a must see. Nondescript on Harford Rd itself, with its entrance on Montebello Terrace, it doesn't look like anything more than a small neighborhood dinner. Passing through the Patio, up the 3-step approach, one enters into a dark but cozy mid-space. Passing an impressive wine rack on the way to the dining area and bar is your 2nd indication this is a special place. The first is the prominently displayed Baltimore Sun's 2022 award for best cocktail. The server team effortlessly integrated their duties to make sure we were never ignored. Having had the lucky fortune to arrive a bit before the brunch crowd, the award winning mixologist, Dana Saeed provided us with tastes and samples to whet our imbibing palate before delivering a superlative Cosmopolitan and Classic Negroni. She also was able to serve up a cold shot of Chartreuse, before creating an imperfect but so incredibly tasting riff on a The Last Word cocktail. I'd never go back to the original recipe, except much like the Chartreuse liquor itself, Dana's contains secret house made additions that far overcame the lack of 1 of the original ingredients. For appetizers, we had the dumplings where the sauce made even the watercress delectable. Our party had a Montecristo, an eggs and grits with bacon, and a seared duck with veggie potato hash that puts all other home fries to shame. Proudly featuring Zekes coffee from just up the street, they served us an incredible chocolate topped cheesecake with a sweet foam, drizzled with dark chocolate. This little out of the way treasure is our new goto for celebrations, after work drinks and really good food. Because of the special drinks we ordered it was a bit pricey, but so very worth it. YMMV.

Hidden gem tucked away on Harford road. Small menu but has options for all. Vegetarian friendly ! Street parking is available.

Okay, hear me out, this place is DELICIOUS. This was our first time here for brunch. We ordered: croque madam, thee steak and eggs, and the bread pudding. If you're in a hurry, here is the summary: it's a little pricey, but the food was FRESH and perfectly cooked and seasoned. More info: The staff was friendly and attentive. The place is small but this building is from the 1920s, so expect cozy seating. The vibe is cozy, intimate, but also casual. The restaurant is owned by a young couple and is very much family-owned. The staff clearly loves each other and their customers. I even witnessed the owner doing some basic sign language for some regulars who are hearing impaired. Since everything is fresh, they make to order and can customize. I recommend getting the homemade biscuit instead of the English muffin because it's made in house. The croque madam is excellent. It's a nice balance between a sweet brioche bread and salty ham. The bechamel gave a nice creamy taste in between the layers of thick ham. The steak and eggs was delicious. I recommend medium rare because the end pieces are more likely to medium with the center slices cooked perfectly. The chimichurri wasn't too intense and didn't have an overpowering raw garlic taste, it was delicious. If you get the homemade biscuit, get the jam and butter with it. The jam is something special. They were out of cinnamon rolls by the time we got there, but their rolls look amazing. Instead, we got the bread pudding which was made with their cinnamon rolls and had a peanut butter ice cream and glaze on top. I love peanut butter and it was like dying and going to heaven. This is a great spot and brunch was first come first serve. I heard that reservations are good for dinner though because it is a small establishment. They have regular updates to their menus and new specials all the time from the looks of it. I'm not sure if they have a handicap entrance. There were steps going up the door that I saw. They don't have a parking lot but there's parallel parking outside and plenty of spaces at the Safeway next door.

The quesadilla was trash. It tasted like grilled cheese on a tortilla. No seasoning not flavor no bueno. If you have a choice between going here or risking a food allergy, risk the food allergy.

Explore Baltimore - Belvedere Square Food Court | Shopping 529 E Belvedere Ave Baltimore, MD 21212 Belvedere Square is Baltimore! Belvedere Square offers a lively atmosphere featuring some of Baltimore’s best small businesses & restaurants, retail shopping, health & fitness, and seasonal events. The Square is right in the heart of North Baltimore, whether it’s lunch with a co-worker, date night, family fun, or meeting up with your gym pals, Belvedere Square has it all

Love everything about Belvedere Square Market. The stalls are all occupied with amazing food options, there are even several options in the middle now. The bar has a great beer selection, delicious cocktails and attentive staff. Love the bottle shop, too! I have no trouble finding a parking spot when I visit.

Pono Taco doesn’t have a place to review so I’ll do it here. This was supposed to be queso and chips. Guess they can’t even get that right. Also this tiny thing was six freaking dollars. Go to the market, but avoid pono taco at all costs.

We had a great time. I just didn't like the crepe..

This place is so awesome! We visited while on vacation. We tried the sushi and ramen, milkshakes, sandwiches and Thai wraps with tofu. Everyone in our party was pleased. There’s a bar and liquor store, a bakery with some nice gluten free options, a cool chocolate shop. Free parking

This place is like a mall food court without thr mall vibe. Great place for Thai food (Thai Landing). Hot, tasty, and hearty. Staff was nice and open to suggestion requests. We ordered: 1) Hilo Bowl. Shrimp was a good size and servings were a reasonable size. 2) Build Your Own Salad: They have you fill out an order slip of what you like in your salad, which is great 👍. The veggies and fruits were fresh and savory. 3) Thai Fried Rice (added broccoli and pinapple). This was very good! With the portion size, my wife was able to each lunch and I finished off for dinner 🍽😋. 4) Pad Tha (added chicken & shrimp): Some of the best Pad Thai I've had, besides when we vacationed in Thailand. Great taste and noodles. I asked for medium-hot, but wasn't so hot. They have general seating (inside and outside) that's shared with the other establishments and the atmosphere, as mentioned earlier, is like a mall food court. Definitely an nice place meet, eat, and even have a drink. Maybe we'll try the bar next time.

Overall wonderful, amazing experience, top level of service and accommodations. Great location, nice sights, great cocktails, polite and hard working staff. Sean and rob in the bar were fantastic and great rec's. there was also a young lady ( tall, glasses in the cannon room she was great also , sorry forgot the name ! . The two gals at check in was amazing, and the one gal training of the two was so kind! Food and bev manager/director was great ! Valet ( brought in by bmw) was wonderful. The treatment while being there for bmw was top tier and we felt like kings !! Room service / daily cleaning was a bonus and amazing !! We would for sure be back on a normal leisure trip ! A few things I would note, these did not damper our trip but would be been good info. 1. Pool hours were unclear, and we missed out. 2. BMW had the hotel blocked ( we were here with bmw, not a big deal) but closed the courtyard early as well. 3. BMW had the bar covered sat and Sunday, no one knew unless they walked in. 4. Joseph in the bar ( if memory serves me right on the name mildy taller, white hair ) was a bit off putting. Two separate times pass right by while either just sat down, or glass ( twice ) was empty and pushed forward, no acknowledgement. 5. We ordered the italian cold cuts and fruit plate. I've gotten a better sub for 1/3 the price at speedway. They took one meat, four raw veggies, and tossed it on the plate All else was wonderful !!

Our stay at the Pendry Baltimore was absolutely exceptional from start to finish. From the moment we arrived, the level of service and attention to detail was second to none. The staff were professional, warm, and genuinely made us feel welcome — every interaction was handled with care and thoughtfulness. The hotel itself is stunning — a perfect blend of modern elegance and historic charm. The design, decor, and atmosphere all exude sophistication, yet it still feels comfortable and inviting. Our room was immaculate, beautifully furnished, and offered breathtaking views of the harbor. Every detail, from the bedding to the lighting, reflected true luxury and comfort. Dining at the Pendry was a highlight — the food and cocktails were outstanding, and the ambiance made every meal feel special. The spa and pool areas were also top-notch, providing the perfect place to unwind and take in the beauty of the waterfront. What truly sets the Pendry apart, though, is the service. Every staff member went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect. Whether it was a thoughtful recommendation, a quick response to a request, or simply a friendly greeting, the level of hospitality was consistently outstanding. The Pendry Baltimore delivers a true five-star experience in every way — refined, relaxing, and memorable. We left already planning our next visit. Highly recommend to anyone looking for the best that Baltimore has to offer

This review is more so about the management staff Nichola. There was a mix up in dates and I had booked this hotel at a non refundable rate via Expedia. I called Expedia to see if they could consult with the manager at the Pendry for a cancellation. When Expedia contacted the Pendry they spoke with Nichola and she declined the request for cancellation. I kept my reservation based on this decision and arrived at the property the day that was booked. My stay with my family was remarkable, thanks to Brittany at the front desk. She is truly a gem with a positive attitude and demonstrates wonderful customer service. When I received my final bill at check out there were additional charges on the bill that I did not apply to my bill because the room was paid for prior to arrival. Brittany got the manager involved, Nichola, and instead of seeing the error and correcting it, Nichola went back and forth with me and blamed Expedia. There was clearly an error within the billing due to Expedia and the Pendry, but as a customer that has nothing to do with me. As a manager, she should’ve saw the error, corrected the issue with me (the customer) and handled the problem with Expedia on the back end. I didn’t appreciate the lack of accountability and lack of customer service approach Nichola took. The Pendry is a lovely hotel, the overall customer service did not match to me.

We had a fantastic stay at the Sagamore Pendry! The building itself is stunning and full of character, making it a unique and memorable experience. We were here for a group leadership training, and the staff went above and beyond to make everything smooth—from the food and room temperature to all the tech needs. A special shoutout to Sam at the front desk, who truly saved the day with 11 PM printouts. Their attentiveness and helpfulness throughout our stay made a big difference. Highly recommend this hotel for both events and leisure stays!

Words cannot describe the Baltimore Pendry—it’s truly an experience you have to see for yourself. I recently had my wedding there, and from start to finish everything was exceptional. A huge thank you to Kat Roberts, our Event Manager, who guided us on our tour and ensured every detail of our wedding was flawless. She was incredibly attentive and made sure the day went off without a hitch, with all of our guests cared for. I also want to give a special shoutout to Terrance and Dakota from the bell team. We had so many items for the wedding, and they made the unloading and loading process seamless. Thank you to the entire team at the Pendry for making our wedding weekend truly magical.

We stopped in to have a drink at the bar, and on our way out, we were chatting with a young man named Phillip who worked for the hotel. He was incredibly kind and took the time to share with us the history of the building, upcoming events, etc. It's so rare to run into someone with that level of customer service, I wanted to take the time to compliment him and the hotel for taking the time to make us feel special!

We enjoyed our stay at the Pendry Baltimore—comfortable rooms, great room service, and outstanding staff, especially Dave and Mr. Terrance. But our alcohol-free room request, made in advance, was ignored, and we were told it would cost $100 to remove the alcohol. Requests like this are often for recovery, religious, or personal reasons, and this policy could even risk a relapse. Unfair and discouraging—it would deter us from returning despite an otherwise excellent property.

I stayed in this hotel in July For the weekend, I always heard good things about this hotel and decided to give it a shot. To start off when I walked into the room, I needed to use the bathroom. The water was running the whole time, but wasn’t flushing. I had to stick my hand in the back of the toilet to connect a chain to be able to flush because when I called the front desk, nobody answered. The room had a weird smell to it, and I got woken up by some random female yelling in the hallway. After my stay, I realized I got charged a $60 fee. Wasn’t sure what it was about. I called one of the staff members informed me that it was a beverage and restaurant charge and I never get anything from a hotel. I was confused so when I spoke to a different representative, she told me it was parking. Getting these different excuses, confused the hell out of me. When I booked my hotel, I was not told that there was a parking fee. If I would’ve known, I would not have stayed here. There are so many other hotels that does not charge parking.. The front desk person handed me my parking passes. She never mentioned anything about parking. I would think this is important to know right? I will never stay at an aloft hotel again.

So... the only thing this hotel has going for it is the proximity to the airport. There is no service here. They put things in place to make it look like a modern, upbeat place but once you realize it's all "lipstick" and there really nothing of value this hotel offers, you soon realize why it's at the price point it's at. The rooms while clean (most likely due to no one is staying there) were not a place where you felt like you could relax. There is no furniture other than a bed, the bathroom just barely exists. Keeping in mind this is a Marriot property, their attempt to cater to the younger crowd just misses the mark. Will stay st the real Marriot next time. I just cannot recommend this one.

The hotel is nice, bar is pricey and location is convenient but their customer service sucks and my room wasn’t stocked with supplies properly. The younger people who checked me in were nice but they didn’t say parking is a fee they just handed me a pass, I also wasn’t charged for it through the app I booked. At checkout there was a lady who said she was a director or manager but she didn’t speak when I walked up with my bf even though I was nice and spoke and when I asked for another room key her attitude was poor but she gave great customer service to another lady having issues with her reservation. Eventually I called to see why the incidental was still pending after nearly 1 month on my card, the desk was nice but the manager Mariam wasn’t, she gave me a run around and tried to say it’s because I wasn’t charged for parking and to call my bank, who first told me to call the hotel. She was being smart, not offering to waive it for the inconvenience when I asked, which from working at hotels we usually would do that if it’s a small fee, when I called her out that made her become even more smart. I wasn’t gonna write a review but most of their staff sucks!

First time staying here. My room was not clean, not really any furniture in the room besides the bed and the green rolling chair which was also dirty. No microwave in the room. Tv is out dated. Shower was dirty and mildew. Bathroom floor was very dirty. Even down to the toilet. Good thing i had clorox wipes and spray in my car.

I gave this hotel a second chance, and I truly regret it. For the second time in a row, the airport shuttle service was an absolute nightmare. After a long day of travel, the last thing anyone wants is to be stranded waiting endlessly for a shuttle that was promised but never seems to arrive. Communication was poor, staff seemed indifferent, and after waiting 45 minutes I ordered an Uber, there was zero acknowledgment or apology for the inconvenience. What’s most frustrating is that this issue was the exact same problem I experienced on my first stay. I had hoped management would have addressed it by now, but clearly, nothing has changed. A hotel that advertises airport transportation should be reliable—this one clearly is not. Between the lack of organization, poor customer service, and repeated failure to deliver basic hospitality, I won’t be giving this property a third chance. Travelers deserve better.

The am staff was very unfriendly and indifferent. The tiled floor grout in my bathroom was full of mold and super gross. Weeds on the patio etc. The room needed a good cleaning. I loved the bartender though. She was very polite There are better places to stay for the same money. Not the usual Aloft property.

We had a great stay, but this review is specifically for the shuttle driver, Francisco. He was the absolute best. He was patient, kind, thorough, informative, helpful and on time even after pulling several double shifts. It is rare to meet a driver with such a positivity and love for his job!
