The 45 best sweets spots in Baltimore

This restaurant used to be quite the place. Unfortunately our recent visit It just seems to be not so great. The baked goods such as the Napoleon was not as flaky and fresh. The limoncello martini was served watered down and we had to ask for it to be remade It literally tasted like water. Portions are very big here. Their ice cream is not that tasty. There are quite a few people in line for the pastries themselves for takeout. Those might be pretty good They did not have a lot of dairy-free options. But they do look pretty tasty.

Man, this place used to be so good years ago. I used to come here all the time, and the pastries were fresh, the place felt clean, and everything tasted amazing. I don’t know what happened with the ownership, but it’s really gone downhill. The Napoleon cake I got was old and soggy, and the cream tasted off. The panini press looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in forever, straight-up grimey. Even the ice cream was a bit melted, like the freezer wasn’t doing its job. The whole place just doesn’t have that same care it used to. Really disappointing to see a spot I used to love fall off like this.

This place is a fun little place not far from Inner Harbor and in Little Italy, Baltimore. My grandma lives near here in the 1950s and it is so fun to think of her enjoying this place, too, since it was established in 1958. I am from the Midwest and I loved trying the authentic Italian pastries and rum cake. Everything was very delicious and reasonably priced given its authenticity. Although, I did not get any ice cream it was very noticeable the ice cream was almost melting in the showcase cooler and was quite off putting. I would not go there for ice cream but for everything else. Atmosphere was clean and staff were very friendly and courteous. They were able to accommodate 6 of us easily. 10/10 would recommend and will be going back again. I loved this place so much I even bought a coffee cup to take home. It literally sparks joy for me!!!

Vaccaro’s has some of the best coffee, pastries, and gelato in all of Baltimore. The atmosphere is amazing located in the heart of Little Italy. The sundaes are out of this world, especially the brownie lovers sundae, and perfect for sharing. The cappuccino is delicious and definitely recommend their cold brew. Plenty of seating inside and friendly staff.

First time coming here as I was looking for an Italian bakery that was comparable to NYC standards. I live in Harrisburg PA now, but since I was in the neighborhood getting some other food elsewhere, I wanted to stop in and see how good their bakery items were. First off, the place itself is not very big. There is a counter when you walk in with all of their delicious treats displayed, and there is also a sitting area if you want to eat there, which was nice. I was hoping for some good cannoli cream and shells. I got 6 mini regular and 6 mini chocolate. They were both equally yummy and tastes like one you would get from Queens or Brooklyn. I also got some rainbow cookies and a few other cookies to go as well. L Everything I bought tasted fresh and will definitely be back again when I am up this way. I wish they had more of a selection of pastries, but for the size of the establishment, what they have does them good. Definitely try the cannoli cookies if you get a chance.

Amazing desserts with crazy large portions! We enjoyed a variety of Italian desserts, but could not finish them as the portion sizes were huge. Definitely get an amount worth your money though. They have a lot of different options to choose from and they were all delicious.

I heard great things about this place and had to stop in to grab my very own cannoli. It did not disappoint. It was delicious. The bakery had a few tables and chairs with a great selection of Italian cookies and desserts as well as ice cream. I only picked up my cannoli to go, but it was a great stop in Baltimore.

This is a pretty popular place They had a couple of dairy-free options one of which is lemon lime sorbet and a coconut caramel swirl. I have to say the coconut caramel swirl with the absolute best vegan ice cream I have ever tasted! The chocolate ice cream Is a decent. Staff were friendly and nice.

Three ice cream's ran me about twenty-seven dollars. The chocolate ice cream was regular. The banana ice cream was delicious. Was expecting it to be better. But. Any case on to the next.

A cute ice cream shop with some unique flavors. The customer service was friendly and accommodating. I sampled quite a few flavors and I think the MANGO LIME HOT SAUCE SORBET, is a pleasant surprise. If you're not too adventurous, then COCONUT CHAI is perfection.

We’ve been coming here for 10 years. I miss the original chalkboards and the flavors. And ice cream. I still love the flavors, but today was really just a pitiful experience. We ordered kiddie scoops and single scoops. All were the same size. None of them cleared even the halfway mark on the tiny bowls. And the ice cream was mushy and running. The employees simply said “well those are full size scoops” and “in the summer sometimes the ice cream flavors are like that.” How far it’s fallen now that it’s grown. Really too bad. Stick with the pints if you go.

We recently visited The Charmery, and while it’s a charming spot with a fun atmosphere and incredibly friendly staff, the ice cream just wasn’t for me. I found the waffle cone a bit too thick for my taste, and the flavor options didn’t quite hit the mark for my palate. That said, the team working there was warm and welcoming, and the overall vibe of the place is really nice. It’s clear they put love into what they do, and I can see why others might enjoy it. This might be one of those places where you have to acquire the taste—so I’d still say give it a try for yourself. You might just find your new favorite scoop.

Staff is always super friendly and works really hard! The Charmery is known for its unique flavors and fun spins on classics. I really enjoy their approach to ice cream as “dessert” or a treat! Their milkshakes are also great! Definitely stop by to smell the waffle cones and buy some of their fabulous flavors! They also note allergens and sensitivities like dairy or nuts in products (though they process it all in the same prep area).

Been coming to the charmery for years, the BEST ice cream shop in baltimore. Love all the constant new flavors and themes. Parking can be a bit tricky but plenty of parking available. Very upsetting that they’re getting rid of their punch cards for rewards.

Swing by this bakery that’s been highly recommended by many friends who work at the Hopkins. My problem was that I came in the late afternoon, 90 mins before they’re closed. Therefore, they ran out of classic and almond croissants. Fine, I picked Spinach & Ricotta, Apple turnover, and Walnut danish. I did not try any of their desserts as I would like to make sure I like their pastries first before overspending if unworthy. The bakeries look very outdated and needed a makeover. This is a 100% take out bakery. No standing or seating inside. After I got home, tried the spinach & ricotta croissant, which was excellent but could be better. The layers can be improved. The next morning, I tried the walnut danish and apple turnover. They are unusually not sweet compared to the normal pasties sold from other bakeries. This is a GOOD thing but may not be the preferred sweetness level for the majority.

I've been a loyal customer to this pastry shop for a while now, often stopping by on my way to my nearby restaurant. My husband absolutely loves the pastries here, and I've made it a habit to pick some up whenever I can. But last week, I had an experience that left me deeply hurt and angry. The staff member I dealt with that day was nothing short of rude. When I politely requested additional pastries, her response was nothing short of abusive. She screamed, “What are you mad about? Did I tell you I was done?” in front of my child and other customers, completely disregarding the fact that her behavior was not only unprofessional but also deeply offensive. When i brought it up, she doubled down on her behavior instead of apologizing and then tried to offer my child some free cookies that I turned down (I am not a beggar and I can pay for anything I want). She basically called me an ANGRY BLACK WOMAN for no reason and tried to make it right with a COOKIE? Even more insulting. This wasn’t an isolated incident. From the moment I walked in, her attitude was brash and dismissive. When I asked if they had more of a specific pastry, she snapped, “What you see here is all we have,” as if I was somehow inconveniencing her with my request. Her behavior was unacceptable, and it made me feel disrespected and degraded. I feel disrespected and degraded, and I will no longer support a business that allows such toxic behavior. This incident has made me realize that I can no longer patronize this establishment. I urge others to be cautious of the treatment they may encounter here. This will be my last visit.

The best croissants in a MD! Love it! The best cakes in a city! Tarts are delicious too, especially with coffee , love this place! Thank you for your business guys!

They have PROPER pastries. Freshly made, not disgustingly sweet like the grocery store ones. I especially like the pear tart. So delicate and refreshing. Items are a bit pricey, but on par with other pastry places in the DMV area. I will definitely come here regularly to support local bakery shops like this. So hard to find authentic French pastry shops in Baltimore, gotta keep it going.

Pretty tasty almond crossaint. Beautiful dish of pasties and baked goods.

By far the best bakery in Baltimore. We drive 40 minutes to get pastries here. I don't know what the 50s in France was like, but the atmosphere in this place feels like the 50s in France.

This little bakery sits incognito in the center of Baltimore City. They have all the beautiful pastries, breads, quiches, cookies, cakes, and Illy coffee you need to feel like you're in a boulangerie, but it's a franchise chain. No complaints here. In fact all compliments. The prices are fair to moderate, but worth every cent. Let the pictures speak for themselves.

Visited for the first time, so my husband and I tried multiple things. They were very busy, with good reason, because the food was all amazing and the employees were outstanding. However, be prepared for limited seating as the location is small. We opted to carry out. I highly recommend the turkey and cheese croissant for a savory option. However, all of their croissants were amazing, plain butter, almond, chocolate, and chocolate almond. They had a sweet cheese puff that was delightful. Perfect blend of crisp, airy, pastry, and the cheese filling was tasty and a perfect level of sweetness. I also really enjoyed the walnut bun (maybe it was pecan). Nice chewy pastry with crunchy nuts. The only photo I took was of the blackberry mini cake (forgot the listed name). As that actually made it home. My only issue was figuring out parking. There is some street parking, but they were understandably busy. There are a few parking lots nearby, but signage about restrictions made it confusing and risky about possibly being towed. I'll be better prepared on my next visit now that I'm aware.

A picture says a thousand words but this photo doesn't even come close to describing how amazingly great these pastries are. I just had one of the eclairs and it is soooooll good. Nicha is polite and friendly and the prices are very reasonable. If you are in the area you definitely have to stop in and get something.

Nice local bakery with amazing desserts and treats! I enjoy their Mozart, short cake and almost every kind of small cakes. It’s a great choice for party desserts and birthday get together.

A lovely little bakery with cute treats and reasonable prices. The chocolate mousse cake I got was very yummy and I was surprised it was only $3.50. I will definitely come back the next time I'm in this part of Baltimore. I got my tea in a to-go cup so I could enjoy it later.

Always delicious with great service. Not as pricey as other nearby French bakeries, and much better selection too. Cannot express enough praise for this long-standing local business. Been going here for years. Highly recommend their stuffed croissants and fruit tarts. Their muffins are also top tier.

I just love this sweet little local place. Today my husband and I stopped in quickly to pick up a gift. The woman working 9am Tuesday 10/14... should have gotten her name... literally brightened my day.. as soon as I opened the door she smiled and said hi. I drove out of my way to purchase because the food is consistently excellent, and for the great quality the prices are fair. Hands down this is my favorite place on the falls road corridor. A few years back I happened to chat briefly with the owner who was equally as lovely. I wish it was bigger with more seating... but if it was it might lose the cute vibe. We got our order to go... the hubs was in a rush... I would have stayed... thanks for the friendly welcome that accompanied great food and service... lastly if you read this for SHOP LOCAL!!!

I absolutely love gluten-free option mini cakes they are tasty very chocolatey and delicious.My family tried every single mini cakes in this cute little bakery and everything was absolutely amazing. Worth every penny!!! definitely one of the best little French bakery around!

Amazing place for gluten free desserts!!! As someone who has been gluten free for 7 years I highly recommend this place for deserts!! However, I do not love their bagels and baked goods such as muffins compared to gluten free bakeries that specialize in bread. I highly recommend the Samoa bar and the pistachio bar!! There is very limited indoor seating and they get very busy so it is best you order to go.

I had such a great experience ordering a custom cake from Harmony Bakery! They were able to accommodate a quick turn around. I had a great experience picking up the cake as well, the staff were very friendly. The cake was beautifully decorated and everyone enjoyed it. I will gladly be a repeat customer!

My first time trying vegan anything. I randomly find this spot and walking in it- smells amazing. When I say this butternut tart was hitting, it was delicious! Then I had a pumpkin chocolate chip muffin and it was just the right amount of sweetness and very moist. I had an iced coffee with almond milk, which had a good taste. But for me it could be a lot sweeter. Can't wait to come back n try more.

Harmony Bakery is an adorable tiny space with folks bustling about baking delicious treats. There isn’t much room for sitting and relaxing but it’s great to pop in for a coffee and something sweet. The staff is always pleasant and friendly.

Such an amazing, welcoming place and EVERYTHING IS GLUTEN FREE!!! ❤️❤️ We have found with gluten free items you just never know what you’re going to get. Every single item we selected was delicious! We quickly ate the Curry Zucchini Cashew Cream tart on the bench right outside the front door. The weather was gorgeous and we took our time savoring every bite! Couldn’t decide what we wanted so we also collected a bunch of items to eat later at home. Rosemary Cashew Biscotti paired amazingly with our coffee! Mixed berry donut and Blueberry Cornbread with maple butter……absolutely delicious and we will be returning!!! They have a community board for local artisans to post their businesses and since they are right in Hampden, perfect place to grab a tasty treat and walk the town. The ladies inside are super friendly and warm. I’m already planning what I’ll grab next visit.

Went here with someone with celiacs and it’s nice to know that you’re getting delicious baked goods with no chance of cross-contamination! The donuts and muffins (all gluten free) were so moist and tasty. The donuts definitely had more of a cake-y texture than a traditional donut, but I loved it! The cashier was also very nice and answered all our questions patiently. Highly recommend this place!

we just found this place by accident, and I bolted in when I saw it was gluten-free because I'm practically celiac. Everyone was super friendly, and the prices were great. I got a lemon blueberry muffin and a chocolate chip cookie, and I swear, they were two of the best things I've ever eaten. The fact that they're vegan and gluten-free blew my mind – I couldn't even tell the difference from when I could eat regular stuff before my body turned on me. Seriously, you gotta check this place out if you're around; you won't regret it.

The alfajores were delicious, especially the classic ones. The chocolate one was very dry. The donut 🍩 really delicious dough, flavor and texture. The key pie disappointed us :( it had a very strong egg flavor both the filling and the meringue we had to throw it away. If they could do better that would be a 5 ✨.

Im not sure what they’re doing differently here but it’s working! These are some of the very best donuts I’ve ever had. I travel a lot, and anywhere I go I get donuts. Not just a donut. I’m out here eating whole boxes of donuts in my car all over the place. Dulceology has some top tier donuts on their roster! The crème brûlée is what drew me in. It was ok. Not my style. But the vanilla glazed cronut? I was genuinely upset that I didn’t buy them all out. It was worth every calorie. It’s in fed hill, I have to drive through the city, the parking isn’t great, and my usual day off is Monday when they close. But after the first time I had them I called out of work just to make another trip here. I don’t want to oversell the hype. They really are worth it. I’ve had a few subjectively “better” donuts. But not in Maryland. And I’ll always go out of my way to come down here when I can!

I saw this place on Instagram and had to visit! Luckily it was near me and I'm glad I made the trip. I bought 6 cronuts and 6 macarons. My family loved the cronuts and macarons! Their favorites were the churro and pistachio one. The lady that helped me was very nice and helpful. I will definitely be back!

Great donuts! VERY pricey. Got a dozen (4 croissant donuts and 8 regular) and it set me back $50. Yikes! They were tasty but that’s quite excessive.

Stumbled upon this place while taking a morning stroll, and all I can say is just wow. You might need to rename those donuts 🍩, soft, fresh, flavorful...artisan donuts. Dont sleep on their coffee, had a vanilla latte, and it was on point even after taking a bite from the pinneaple donut 😋

Obsessed with their cronuts (croissant style donuts). They're light and airy in texture but bring the sweetness of a traditional donut. They do a good job with the variety of flavors and always have a few seasonal ones. They're pricey but truly feel like a treat and are so worth it

I only write reviews for places that blow me away, and Dulceology did exactly that. I only had the donuts, and that alone was enough to know this place is special. Dmitry was at the counter when we went. They were warm, welcoming, and so clearly passionate about their work that it made the whole visit even better. Now, about those donuts. They weren’t just good, they were something entirely new. Imagine the softness of a donut fused with the flaky layers of a croissant; I’ll admit, I thought it might just be a gimmick, but one bite shut that down real quick. And the frosting and filling? They tasted so fresh it was almost shocking, like someone had just picked the berries that morning and turned them into the most vibrant, bright, and naturally sweet filling and frosting imaginable. I had to damn near cover my eyes to stop myself from buying another one on the spot. And don’t just stop at the croissant donuts. The brioche donuts are every bit as incredible, soft and rich in a completely different way, yet somehow just as amazing. Both deserve their own spotlight. I left already figuring out when I can justify going back.

The place is a bit small with few tables indoors on a hot day. Found it a bit pricey for the cup sizes. There are some unique flavors on the menu, and the gelato is smooth to taste. We had the cardamom, turmeric ginger, and hazelnut chocolate flavors

We had a delightful time at PitanGo Gelato! Their gelato is incredibly creamy, and the flavour selection is refreshingly unique. We tried hazelnut, cardamom, black tea, and walnut — each one stood out with its distinct taste and smooth texture

Very friendly and accommodating staff. But, the Gelato were thermonuclear sugar bombs. There was so much sugar in them that any other flavor gets buried. Whoever is making them, at least halve the sugar!

Delicious! Excellent customer service! Will come here again. Not much sitting area inside.

Really good gelato & I liked that you could get two flavors in the regular size. Store was very small and got crowded but there is some seating outside. It a tiny portion but the flavors were great. Highly recommend the pistachio flavor

SO tasty, and there were SO many vegan options that it was hard to choose! That’s not a problem I usually have. 🤣 I got the chocolate sorbet (which tasted rich and decadent and more like gelato, and was absolutely delicious) and the strawberry rhubarb sorbet (seriously, what a fun flavor!). Both were delicious. My kiddo got mint chip gelato and mango sorbet, which he said were also delicious and the sorbet really tasted like real mango, not fake flavoring. The person at the counter was also incredibly friendly. Highly recommend checking it out!

Love having this gelato for my ice cream cravings! I always get a combo of pistachio, black tea & chocolate sorbet. I have tried vanilla chocolate chips as well as cardamom and they are very refreshing aa well. A nice light gelato place. A must try!

I came here with a buddy for lunch. The place was surprisingly uncrowded. Peaceful atmosphere. Our server Sarah was kind and good care to tell us about other options during happy hour. The food was great less 1 Stat for the french onion soup ot took longer than all the other food and was awful when it arrived. The good points was my octopus was cooked to perfection and well paired with chick peas...what an unlikely but refreshing combination. My buddy said the salmon was also well prepared.

This a beautiful restaurant. I paid a visit to this place with a group of friends. The food and presentation was great, but, the service was not so much. Our host was nice and seated us promptly. However, I must say that our server kinda gave us mix feelings about the restaurant. Our server was not very friendly and little short with some of us. Sensing this, we tried our best to be nice to our server just in case something horrible happened prior to our arrival. I know this was not necessary but we really wanted to enjoy our experience at restaurant. Apart from this mishap, the food was very delightful and reasonably priced. The bathrooms were tidy. The restaurant is wheelchair friendly.

Excellent dinner. We enjoyed the two courses for $35 menu: Firecracker Shrimp Tempura, Crab Corn Chowder, Mahi Mahi, and Seafood Bucatini.

Dianne is the perfect bartender who always has the perfect drinks and attitude to welcome new coming and returners. I appreciate her recommendations and services. Happy to be a 2nd time customer.

This is probably my wife's favorite restaurant! They always have something delightful on the menu. She usually gets the surf & turf. I might do the same or the rack of lamb. Both are always tasty and satisfying!

Not what I remembered, I use to frequent Blue Hill Tavern all of the time prior to Covid but this was my first time back since Covid. Came in after work and sit at the bar I’ll Beyonce looked amazing per usual we started with a glass of wine and then proceeded to order our server was extremely kind and friendly. I started with a chopped salad and I will say that it was just as amazing as I remember followed by the French onion soup which I know is a new addition to the menu although the presentation was amazing and it was extremely hot which I love there was no taste. I am not a person that uses salt and I asked for salt and pepper to try to flavor it I was so disappointed. My friend had the pizza what she said was good as well as the chop salad, i’ll definitely come back but I was just super disappointed in a soup and I’ll try something different the next time I come back. The specialty cocktail was also really good.

Went for Thanksgiving and had a great time. It was a 2 course menu and I had the duck confit and swordfish (pictured). We also has the burger and while it wasn't medium rare as requested, it was still very tasty. For dessert, I had their "candy bar" which did not disappoint. I would recommend this place to anyone in the area.

I've been to Dangerously Delicious a bunch of times, but this was my first visit since the name change. The two young ladies working were super welcoming and courteous. I decided to try the key lime pie, which was a first for me. The slice was generous, and the graham cracker crust was a highlight. However, the filling was super cold - like straight-from-the-freezer cold. It was good, but not great. Having had some amazing key lime pies before, I'd rate this one a 3. One thing that caught my attention was a couple of small flies buzzing around the register and pie case. Despite that, the service was good, and I'd consider going back.

I'm a foodie, and this is a fun casual gem of a specialty pie shop. A must if you're in the area. Homemade sweet and savory pies. Prices are reasonable and savory pies are delicious. Also got two lemon bars for only 3.50! It's a great little foodie find with such a wonderful local vibe.

My first time visiting the shop & instantly loved the funky chic decor. The ladies who work behind the counter were pleasant & courteous. I bought a chicken pot pie, and a slice of the strawberry rhubarb & lemon chess pie. All were pretty tasty.

This was our first time trying this place. We went after eating an early dinner at Mama's on the Half Shell. The 2 girls serving were very pleasant and offered to warm our pies, which we took them up on their offer. We sat inside and enjoyed a nice experience. The sweet potato pies were very good along with the mixed berry. I have to be careful with this place... trying to keep my waist slim. I will return for the holidays for a pie.

This place, unlike its DC counterpart, isn’t overpriced. They have sweet pies, savory pies, pancake pies, and quiches. This is the place to try if you’ve never heard of or had a savory pie. They're more than just your basic American chicken pot pie, I know I’m not talking about shepherd's pie either. They have savory pies like their S.M.O.G.: steak, mushroom, onion, and Gruyere, a pulled pork BBQ pie, or a ratatouille for vegetarians. When it comes to sweet pies, they’ve got some niche local favorites like the Baltimore bomb, the white trash crème brûlée (I forgot what the more PC name is), and lots of your favorite varieties, cobblers, crumbs, and straight fruit pies.

Fantastic! Absolutely fantastic! The employees were kind and helpful in helping to navigate the menu. The food is top tier — there were no duds in the bunch (though a little light on the bacon)! However, the sweet pies are what will be bringing us back! There was something even about the whipped cream that was simply delicious and didn't overpower the sweetness of the pie. Portion sizes are generous and the vibes are pretty chill. Looking forward to coming back again and trying more! Order: Date for 2 ($24, T-TH, 2 Savory, 2 Sweet, 2 Drinks) • Bacon, Onion, Gruyere Quiche (fork-in photos) • Crab and Cheese Quiche • Coconut Chess Pie 🌟 • Apple Crumb Pie 🌟

This Place Truly lives up to its name for sure 👍🏽. Was in the mood for something sweet and saw this cute pie 🥧 shop and decided to stop in and boy am I glad I did. The pies were amazing being that I had more than one 😏. They have so many different delicious flavors, I almost couldn’t decide on which ones I wanted to try, but some how I finally figured out which ones to get. I can tell they used good quality ingredients and it feels like home . Such a great spot they service was amazing and fast , so do yourself a favor stop in and let even more people know how great this place is …. I love supporting small businesses 😊 !!

Improved Review: While the name suggests Italian recipes, the place actually specializes more in Italian-style sandwiches. That said, everything is very tasty and well-prepared. The atmosphere is calm, and the service is quick—perfect for a relaxed meal. If you’re feeling extra hungry, you can customize your order by adding ingredients like eggs or additional meats. Just note that, for now, only fried egg is available as an extra. The good thing is that any item on the menu can be upgraded to suit your taste.

Great location, great view, and great seating options. Usually a short line to get your order in, but the staff are quick fast and will bring your order to you out quickly. Variety of options for drinks from coffee to hot chocolate with all tasting great. Drinks are a bit pricey, but it’s well worth the premium over cheap machine made drip coffee. If you’re looking for a place to go on a nice weekend in Baltimore just to sit down and get some work in, this is a great choice.

I had a lovely breakfast at Pitango cafe. Ashley who served me she was extremely kind and friendly. I had a toasted focaccia rustico, fresh orange juice, cappuccino & almond croissant. Food was so fresh delicious and well presented. I’m so happy to visited this place. If you want quality food u must go place!

5/5 highly recommend this cafe. I got a croissant (so so good!!) and an iced matcha latte with vanilla bean syrup and oat milk. It hit the spot. Service was great. Very chill vibes. Would eat here again!

Amazing, fresh baked goods and food! Love their almond croissant and lattes. All the focaccia / bread on the sandwiches is delicious. Friendly service and great atmosphere, right on the harbor!

Pitango is the best bakery in all of Fells Point. The food is incredibly fresh and well made. They also have stellar beverage options. My wife loved their latte and I thoroughly enjoyed the Sipping Chocolate. The sandwiches are on beautiful homemade bread and they use really high-quality ingredients for reasonable prices. For alcohol, they have a small selection of craft beer and cocktail cans as well as some bottles of wine for sale. However, in the evening they partner with their neighbor business, V-No Wine Shop, to sell some of their high-quality wines. They even will pair them with Pitango's charcuterie boards! The views are also fantastic. They have plenty of seating inside, but the small outside seating is what makes it. you are sitting right next to the harbor and get to enjoy the views of Fells Point. Whether you are coming in the morning, afternoon, or evening, this is a great option for food, drink or relaxation.

Ordered Latte with extra sweetness, Macha latte, Roasted beef. And they were all great. Coffee itself is very reasonably priced. Also, crossing was exactly how I wanted. Also, employees were so patient and kind cuz it took us some time to decide what we wanted. If you are in Baltimore, this is a must-visit place. Will be coming back.

Lucky's Coffee & Ice Cream Shop is situated in a prime location. The shop itself is quite small, offering limited indoor seating for about 4 to 5 people. However, there are four large metal tables available outside for additional seating. The staff is friendly, and while the ambiance is fairly average, the overall vibe is pleasant. Prices are Moderate, and the ice cream tastes good—no complaints there (don't put too much expectations) . It's a great spot to enjoy a treat with family thanks to its nice location. There’s no Wi-Fi available, and parking can be challenging unless you opt for the nearby paid parking garage.

Apr 2025. Basic ice cream shop. Good location in Baltimore harbor. Is a very small shop with no indoor seating. There’s a few tables outside where you could sit if it happens to be a good day. Staff was not exactly friendly. Just a business transaction. Ice cream was average. I thought they were priced reasonably as a positive point. The worst part was… the FLIMSY SPOON that bends when you try and scoop up some ice cream. Get the cone.

Cute, small shop, on the corner next to Phillips seafood. Hard served ice cream, milkshakes, Starbucks brand coffee. Prices aren’t too bad. The espresso chip ice cream was so good. They have a few seats inside or four tables outside. Employees were very kind.

Excellent coffee lots of candy selections for young kids not very many indoor seating areas but good for a quick coffee and go

employees are unprofessional and rude. visited on 9/28 and when it was our turn in line, the cashier just stared at us without saying anything. and the girl scooping ice cream was very hostile when i asked for a cup. ice cream was okay, but for $4 a scoop, one would expect bare minimum customer service AT LEAST

It's not bad. Good quality ice cream but not mind blowing. It's open later than other places so a good choice for ice cream after dinner (most other places in the area close at 6pm, this one closes at 8pm). Prices are reasonable. They also sell other things such as milkshakes, cookies, bagel, muffins, coffee, candy bars, etc. Unfortunately they don't have a restroom....

From a humble pop-up to a beloved Harbor East institution, Lucky's Coffee, Ice Cream & Candy has been a delightful treat for Baltimoreans since 2011! ✨🍭 Originally known as 'The Best of Luck Candy & Gifts,' Lucky's found its permanent home in the heart of Baltimore Harbor in Spring 2011. In 2018, they embraced a new identity as 'Lucky's Coffee, Ice Cream & Candy,' reflecting the spirit of owner, Alexis 'Lucky' Thompson. With a vision to recreate the nostalgic penny candy stores of her childhood, Lucky's became a haven for those seeking a sweet escape in Baltimore. 🍡💖 After three successful years, they listened to the sweet tooth cravings of their beloved customers and expanded into the world of ice cream. Today, their irresistible scoops have stolen the show and become a true crowd favorite! 🍦😍 But that's not all! They have joined forces with Starbucks as a 'We Proudly Serve' location, bringing you the iconic flavors of their renowned coffee drinks alongside their delightful treats! ☕️

Nice little pie “bar”. Had space after dinner to try a slice and opted for steak mushroom onion truffle. Lovely crust and filling ratio was on point. I’d definitely try out the other pies if I’m around the corner. Love the bar too! Decent selection of Irish and bourbon on display. Beer fridge is well stocked too!

Genuinely my favorite spot in Baltimore. I have traveled and worked in every region of this country and have never found such a unique and perfectly executed idea. If someone told me there was a restaurant of just pies I'd say they are full of it. I am not exaggerating when I say these are the best pies I've ever had and I will miss this more than anything when it's time to move to the next job.

Very Rock-a-billy! Love The Vibes love the look. The pies are amazing! This is now my second time going and I don't think I can stop coming back. Yum! I recommend getting any of the fruit pies because they are really delicious and for the savory I've only had the beef onion and gruyere cheese. So good. I need to work on getting the quiches

We ordered two slices of pie and a coffee — the Caramel Apple Crumb and the Baltimore Bomb. Both were flavorful and delicious, but the Baltimore Bomb was the standout! Highly recommend giving it a try if you visit. 🍰☕️

Iyin and Rodney were so sweet and deserve a flourishing business with their charisma. WITH that being said, oh my goodness do Not get the pies here. Idk if it’s because I came here on a Friday night at 11 pm but I got the strawberry rhubarb and it was so disappointing and by disappointing I mean borderline nasty. I never write reviews but the way I was bamboozled when I took a bite because I was so excited to try this and the reviews were good so I was certain it would be atleast be a 5/10… no :( I had to write this review. I will say I had a Caramel cappuccino and that was good . I don’t know about anything else here but the strawberry R. And the mixed berry pie was NOT good, trust me. (In the photo I could only eat the crust/bredding, it didn’t come with whipped cream, frosting etc)

I’ve eaten here and have purchased their pies in large quantities for events over the years. Unfortunately I will not be returning as a result of my last visit. It was a Friday afternoon, wasn’t too busy. It was a couple at the bar drinking and chatting and two bartenders (I do believe one was being trained). Nonetheless, I sat at the bar for over 10min before walking out. Neither of the bartenders even greeted me of acknowledged my presence.

The key lime pie is better than the actual key lime in the keys! We used to call in first to check and see what they actually had as we drive in from the county. Used to call and they answer promptly. However this past week they never answer phone after 9pm (our post dinner drive down) even though they used to. Hope they pickup soon, would pay the premium just to get it!

I won four dozen cupcakes that were donated by Codetta Bake Shop in an auction that supported a local preschool. The cupcakes were delicious - especially the Oreo and birthday cake ones! They were beautiful and tasty. I chose to have them delivered and they arrived five minutes before the scheduled delivery time !! I shared the cupcakes at a work celebration and everyone agree they were wonderful. I highly recommend this wonderful shop that gives back to the community and puts a smile on your face with every yummy bite you take! Will definitely be ordering from them again.

We've been coming to Codetta for years! It's a tradition to get our kiddo's birthday mini cupcakes from here (birthday cake & cookies n. cream). The service is great, and the sweet treats are phenomenal. I'm lactose intolerant, and I will pop a lactose pill so I can have a bit of their tres leches, cheesecakes, and ice cream. You can't go wrong with their regular-sized cupcakes and I love that they have some rotating flavors. Their vanilla birthday cake is a personal favorite, too. Also, their Instagram is a lot of fun, so give them a follow there :)

Chrissy & Ja’niyah are absolutely amazing and they have so many wonderful options at their stall. The cupcakes and cookies are a must have!

Codetta is my absolute favorite bakery in the city! Cupcakes are my favorite dessert, and nobody does them better than Codetta. The weekly specials are an amazing deal (four cupcakes for $10), especially considering how high quality they are. The cake is extremely soft, fluffy, and not at all crumbly. The frosting to cake ratio is perfect, and the flavors are fun and innovative. The owners are incredibly responsive and friendly. I trust them to resolve any issues promptly, since they genuinely care about their customers' experiences and the quality of their treats. They are constantly experimenting with new flavors and partnering with other local businesses. I love that we have such a great spot in Fed Hill! I'm always excited to see what Codetta comes up with next!

Ordered a few types of cheesecake slices for a friend’s birthday here. The cheesecake was delicious and a hit! The owner and staff were also super friendly and helpful. I’ll definitely be back!

I had Beef Bacon & Cheddar Egg Souffle, Chocolate brownie supreme cupcake and Matriarch coffee. The Souffle was light, flaky and delicious. The cupcake i cut in half to eat later but it was so delicious I ate the whole thing in one sitting🤣😂 The Matriarch cofee was on point!

I just experienced Colette bake shop for the first time today. I am sooo proud and impressed with all that ordered taste unknown only from site. I even added a sandwich when I got to the store. Everything was more than expected the size and flavor of everything was amazing. This is a most for my household for ever and I’m a baker myself.👊🏾♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

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 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!

Went there for mother's day weekend. Sat outside in the evening. Service and atmosphere was great. Food could be bigger portions for the price. Did not take pictures of the drinks, but cocktails could've been better.

We had early dinner on a weekday. Place was quite with only 3 other tables occupied. Attentive service, fresh seafood, and delicious dishes.

An Extraordinary Evening at Ouzo Bay: Where Excellence Meets Heart ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ouzo Bay delivered an absolutely phenomenal dining experience that exceeded every expectation. From the moment we walked through the doors, the welcoming staff made it clear that this wasn't just a meal it was going to be something special. The service at Ouzo Bay was nothing short of amazing. Every team member demonstrated professionalism, warmth, and genuine care that made the entire evening feel effortless. They struck the perfect balance between attentive service and giving guests space to enjoy their experience. The food was simply outstanding. Each dish showcased the restaurant's commitment to quality and authentic Mediterranean flavors. From the fresh seafood to the perfectly seasoned accompaniments, every bite was a testament to the kitchen's skill and passion. The presentation was beautiful, and the flavors were even better. What made this experience truly remarkable was witnessing Ouzo Bay welcome Baltimore's Street Chronicles youth for fine dining and etiquette training. The staff embraced this opportunity with such grace and enthusiasm, creating an atmosphere of pure joy and learning. Watching these young people experience fine dining while learning proper etiquette was heartwarming and inspiring. The restaurant team went above and beyond to ensure everyone felt comfortable, valued, and engaged. They transformed what could have been an intimidating experience into one filled with laughter, learning, and genuine connection. This evening embodied everything wonderful about Baltimore's spirit community, growth, and opportunity coming together in the most beautiful way. Ouzo Bay didn't just serve a meal; they created lasting memories and opened doors to new experiences for these young people. Ouzo Bay has earned a permanent place on my list of exceptional restaurants. Their combination of incredible food, outstanding service, and genuine heart makes them a true gem in Baltimore's dining scene. This is what hospitality looks like when it's done right with skill, warmth, and purpose. Highly recommended for anyone seeking not just a great meal, but a truly meaningful dining experience.

Really nice spot on the water near the inner harbor in Baltimore. The outdoor bar is wonderful in the nice weather, as you can feel the breeze from the harbor, and don’t feel like you’re in the city anymore. The menu is great - a Mediterranean fusion of unique flavors. You have to order from a QR code and an app at the table, which for the prices was a bit annoying, but the food was worth it. It did take a while to receive our food - and it wasn’t that busy when we were there, so just be prepared to wait. This is definitely more of a “cool atmosphere” place to chill with friends or have a date night. I would still go back to try more menu items, as we only got a few apps. Drinks are overpriced, but the spinach pie/spanakopita was amazing - I would’ve ordered 4 more!

The food was amazing the app and entree where to die for. The salad and dessert were ehh. But since we didnt “select” them i wont count them in this review. My server was not very prompt however. I has to get up and ask a random person for assistance. My actual server never came back to the table after her two bite check in. Also. The website said that live music was there every friday and saturday, and that was not the case for valendtines day (friday). Other than that. I have no complaints. The restaurant is pricey, but the flavor of the dishes we ordered matched my expectation. On a scale of 1/10 id give it a 7.5/8. Considering an average score being 5. This place met expectation

The food was excellent. The sparkling water was the bomb. I don't usually do mussels, but theirs were flavorful. Definitely would go back.

I might have caught them on a bad night but the place was practically empty so the noise of the bartender and a male patron at the bar working out some relationship issue that no one wanted to listen to and deteriorated the service level. A first failure for Atlas. Some of he food was delicious but I’m sure it can be found in a more enjoyable environment. $150 for an unenjoyable experience and food I sent back for being undercooked. Unbelievable and unacceptable.

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!

Fantastic dinner location for any special occasion or nice evening. We ordered the mussels, trout, and vegetable gnocchi. All were cooked perfectly, and superbly prepared. The drink special - a rose spritz - was also great. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a more upscale dinner in Baltimore.

We celebrated our 9-year anniversary at Petit Louis Bistro, and overall the experience was wonderful. The atmosphere was lively and authentic, though seating was quite close together, which made it a little noisy at times. Parking was also slightly challenging, but once inside we were immediately impressed with the warm service. We had reservations and, even though we were running late, the staff kindly accommodated us without issue. Dinner started with the Soupe à L’Oignon Gratinée—rich, flavorful, and a perfect classic—and the Tomato Bisque, which was creamy and satisfying. For entrées, the Flanc de Veau Grillé with caper brown butter and fennel & arugula salad was cooked beautifully, while the Steak Frites with pommes frites and beurre maître d’hôtel was hearty and delicious. We ended the night with a flawless crème brûlée, crisp on top and luxuriously smooth underneath. Despite the minor inconveniences, Petit Louis made our anniversary dinner truly memorable, and we look forward to returning.

What a wonderful meal in an adorable French restaurant! We started with the escargot and eggplant appitizers. For meals we shared the duck confit and beef cheeks. Most recommended: Beef Cheeks, so comforting and delicious. Escargot was decadent. Must go! Be ready for a big bill and a full tummy!

I enjoyed eating here, however I don't feel the cost is justified. I also didn't like the amount of fries given to us for our meals which felt like a filler for a place I am spending alot on. Overall, it's not bad at all, just not for their price point.

The mussels were full of sand and clearly not cleaned properly. If it was just one or two, I could overlook it, but almost every single one was gritty! It felt like the kitchen staff didn’t bother to clean them at all. The duck breast was completely unchewable and overcooked, despite ordering medium rare. Compared to the tender and juicy duck breast I’ve enjoyed at other places, this one fell far short. The duck leg had crispy skin, which was nice, but the meat itself was quite tough. The roasted chicken was dry except for a few pieces near the leg. As for the crème brûlée—it was, honestly, the worst I’ve ever had—overwhelmingly sweet and far from enjoyable. On the bright side, the service was good, and given the restaurant’s high rating (4.7), I’d like to think my experience was more of an unfortunate one-off rather than a consistent issue.

What an excellent and memorable meal... shame on me for living in Baltimore for so long and somehow never dining here until now! Everything we ordered was so perfectly prepared, presented and delicious, the service was stellar, and I loved the cozy French bistro atmosphere on a cold winter night. I'll be coming back just for the incredible French Onion Soup alone (but look forward to trying some of the other dishes too!)

What a great lunch we had! French cuisine at its finest. The onion soup, escargot, salads and entrees were delicious. Service was impeccable start to finish. Is this the best restaurant in Baltimore?? Maybe!

I decided to try a restaurant in Canton. The atmosphere was pleasant, and I liked the concept of the brick walls. I started with a Baileys on the rocks, and as you can see from the photos, I had a glass full of ice with only a shot of Baileys. Yes, I sat at the bar. Next, I tried the passion fruit lemonade. This restaurant offers a limited menu for brunch, so I would recommend coming for dinner; however, on the day I went, I was told they were closing early for a private event. After studying the menu for a while, I selected the Caesar salad. It doesn't have the usual Caesar taste. The dressing was green and had a tart taste to it. Also, they used baby spinach, and they added pickled onions. Next, I ordered a hamburger well done, but it wasn't, and my fries were overcooked. I enjoyed the frozen lemon meringue tart. Also, I tried the biscuits, and they were hard and cold.

Celebrated my daughter's birthday at Gunther & Co after reading the phenomenal reviews. Had oyster samplers, Brussels sprouts app, Yuzu vodka cocktail, scallops entree, and the table sampled the array of amazing desserts. Service was fantastic, and everything we tasted was sensational. The cocktail was light and lovely, the pickle brine oysters were my personal favorite, the Thai-inspired brussels - 🤌👌, the scallops melted in my mouth, and just whooooooaaaa on those DESSERTS... Well done, G&Co! It was an experience to remember!

Definitely 5 stars! The ambience is perfect. What was previous a brewery has become a very nice restaurant, with industrial and modern architecture. The food was spectacular. We had octopus as an appetizer and for mainly dish, duct and short rib with brown risoto. We went there for my husband’s birthday celebration. When making my reservation, I kindly asked if they could provide a desert with candles and “happy birthday” on it, and they did it as a surprise. Highly recommend!

I came here with a group (6) for dinner on a Sunday. All of us enjoyed our food - rolls, duck breast (pictured), roasted chicken, fried chicken, tagliatelle, eggplant, chicken sandwich, sherbet and sorbet, cheesecake, and key lime tart (pictured). The service was impeccable, the music playlist was relaxing, and restaurant was a beautiful space. I will definitely be back.

Bday dinner ( 7/23/2025 -5:15 pm)Our host was kind and so very charming and attentive. We sat in the beautiful outside area. The ambiance was WONDERFUL. There is a bar outside also; they have a happy hour. The food and drinks were great. There is parking near by at no cost. I will return to Gunthers!

The pork chop was out of this world!! Lick my plate clean level sauce work. A member of our party is gluten free so for a 5$ upcharge we could add crudité to the hummus plate (and the flatbread for the rest of us was magnificent). I was expecting a few carrots and celery but the plate of raw veggies was a beautiful variety. That was a lovely option for all of us! The server was very knowledgeable about the GF and cross contamination aspects of the menu so we appreciated that greatly. Also the Basque cheesecake was so yummy!! I don't live in this part of the country but this was "drive all night back to Baltimore" good.

Dinner at Gunther’s was amazing. We shared a few appetizers and each did not disappoint. The space was a revitalized industrial space (brewery) with beautiful brick and metal accents throughout. The area was well-lit and open. Bathrooms were clean. Our server was attentive and descriptive when talking through different dishes. We started with the baked oysters, grilled octopus, crispy pork belly, and Brussels sprouts. I had the duck breast for the entree and it was perfectly cooked, soft, and flavorful. For dessert we shared the pumpkin custard and some spice bread. Cocktails were balanced, just had the old fashioned like drink myself. Overall, definitely recommend a visit and will come back in the future!

Went to check out their bagels. I’ve only picked up catering platters for work but never have tried myself. (I will say they helped me out tremendously with a last minute kosher platter.) it was very busy in there and it was a bit confusing on where to order. Found a table and our bagels came out very quickly! We tried a sesame flat, sesame bagel with cream cheese and a Black Russian bagel with whitefish. To say my boyfriend was a happy guy is an understatement. He thoroughly enjoyed the bagels and whitefish. We also picked up some rugelachs. The only negative for me was it was a bit messy, especially the bathroom. But in their defense, there was a steady stream of people coming through. We will go back again soon!

Stopped here for breakfast on a drive through Baltimore. Locals seem to really like this place, but for a visitor it was very confusing. There are 5 points of ordering across 3 counters. Each one was inconsistently staffed even during the half hour we were there. It was not clear which line to stand in or who to order from, and they did not have a menu posted. Some items were brought to the table, while others were left at the counter for us to pick up. The food itself was good. The shakshouka was well-cooked and the bagel was good quality. The coffee was terrible. I wouldn't go here again, unless it was just to get bagels and walk out.

After ordering from friendly cashier, had my toasted jalapeño bagel with lox spread and capers within 3 minutes. Good food and service made for a nice breakfast. A+

I went for the first time, and these were some of the worst bagels I've ever had. I don't know if it was an off day or if they are always like this, but I definitely don't get the hype. Bagels were hard, flat, misshapen (more hole than dough), and did not look like any of the pictures

After hearing about this place often via word of mouth and in social media, I finally got the opportunity to stop by this place for breakfast. Needless to say - they didn’t disappoint. Super friendly staff, amazing food and cozy atmosphere. Make this your go to for an authentic NY bagel experience!

Went here as it was recommended as one of the best bagels in Baltimore. I was yet again disappointed at the quality. It was deeply underwhelming in size, taste, and fluffiness. I tried 2 different types and they were both egh. Even mediocre bagels in NY/NJ area are leaps and bounds better. Really can’t understand why finding a decent bagel is impossible here.

I’ve had two recent visits here, and unfortunately, both times I ran into issues with food quality—specifically spoilage. While the bagels are consistently tasty and fresh, the salads, cream cheese, and spreads have been a letdown. They either tasted off or didn’t seem properly stored. It feels like there’s a lack of attention when it comes to managing the freshness of the ingredients, which really affects the overall experience. I’m hoping this is just a rough patch, but management seems to be off their game lately. I’d love to see things tighten up because this place has real potential when everything’s on point.

We visited after seeing great reviews about the Mango BBQ Chicken Wings and Cauliflower Manchurian, but were disappointed. The restaurant was empty at lunchtime, and service was slow and inattentive. The Cauliflower Manchurian tasted like basic fried cauliflower in orange chicken sauce, and the chili chicken was overly salty, dry, and tough. The only standout was the well-seasoned signature fries. Unfortunately, the experience didn’t live up to the hype.

Sweet 27 has easily became my favorite Gluten free restaurant here in Baltimore City. After trying a dish at a Board meeting. I became intrigued to explore their menu. Also having a sensitivity to Gluten has become extremely challenging to eat out at restaurants or get take out. I’d never really tried Indian cuisine before until now. However, I’ve since become enchanted to keep returning a few times each week. I absolutely love the Tandoori chicken as an appetizer and an entree. Their food is filled with aromatics that give you a feeling of home cooked meals. The Bombay chicken is delicious and I’ve also become a fan of the Tofu with cilantro and lime sauce. Which is my second favorite dish. Don’t forget to add the garlic naan. Desserts from the strawberry cheesecake that simply melts in your mouth. To the red velvet cupcake that felt like heaven. I never liked red velvet until now. I’m inspired to try new dishes and increase my love for their cuisines even more. I hope I’ve inspired you to visit this little heaven on earth. The ambiance and customer service is truly top notch! Tell June I sent you to taste the Pineapple Princess ❤️

I have severe celiac disease and was able to eat here without worry. Our server was so sweet, place is beautiful and quiet . Food was absolutely delicious as well as cupcakes. I 100% recommend this place to everyone not just those with celiac disease or gluten allergy. It’s delicious and prices are extremely reasonable.

This is one of my favorite spots. You wouldn’t even know the food is gluten free, and the service is top tier. The batata vada and cinnamon buns are my favorite.

This is a fantastic (although surprisingly empty) fusion cafe, serving both American bites and Indian food. Visited here with my girlfriend, and since we weren't super hungry, we got one Chicken curry entree to share. It was perfectly sized, though I would have appreciated more rice or paratha on the side. The also have a grab-and-go counter with an assortment of desserts. It seems like thats the "cafe" side.

I really want to support local. The guy that served me at the dessert counter did not have a reasonable grasp on English. I needed dairy-free desserts for my wife who has a allergy. I asked if everything up there was dairy-free or where the dairy-free was and he kind of cocked his head and just said, yeah, yeah. I said, they're all dairy-free? He said, yeah, yeah. So I ordered a box. Then I decided I wanted some more and I said let's start a second box. He cocked his head like he didn't quite get it. I tried a couple more times and we finally got through and I figured it was just nothing. When I got home, she ate one of the dairy filled cupcakes. Stopped about halfway through and set this taste too good to be dairy free. I stopped and checked their website and found that it wasn't. Now it's a dairy allergy, so there's a lot on me to double and triple check and be careful. And I'll take that responsibility and say this was my screw up. But your server's definitely need to learn a little dairy and allergy, and I specifically said that you didn't get it and just thought of letting me think he did.

Gluten free and vegan, so good. Friendly family restaurant with a fun bar.

This ice cream shop smells heavenly! I had one scoop of vanilla salted caramel ice cream in a waffle cone. It was the BEST ice cream I've ever had. I sampled the chocolate salted caramel. It was also delicious, but it was so rich I knew I wouldn't have been able to eat it all. The service was absolutely wonderful. I will definitely make my way back to try more flavors the next time I'm in Baltimore!

When I tell you…this was not an upset, but a well won victory. Kilwins Ice Cream is one stop I’d make again for a delicious sweet treat in your mouth. I got that Georgia Peach and Turtle Cheesecake for approximately $7. The scoop sizes were worth the price point as I was left as a satisfied buyer. I’ve been on my ice cream tour all summer long, and I would recommend you stop by here. They even got these Dubai chocolate bites for about $6 each. Delicious as I ate them after my dinner. The candy section is a nice addition as well. The customer service I got on Monday was exceptional, and they even gave me a rewards card to receive a free scoop for later on. 5/5 would recommend to stop by in Fells Point for them. Thanks.

If you like chocolates, it's your go to place. It's located in fells point. You can grab some chocolates and go to the water and enjoy it. The ice cream was delicious. The only concern is the price. The shake that I bought was $12.50. I think it's way above than the normal price.

Ice cream is decent with good selection. The fudge I got last time I came here over this past weekend (double dark chocolate) was really stale. I don’t think I’ll get fudge here if I come back again, esp since it was expensive for how hard it was.

They have it boys. The crem de la crem of the ice cream family - Superman. It was delicious and reminded me of my homeland on Krypton. Great ice cream. Great staff.

Best place!! And great option for a late night treat! Kind employees even at 10 AM, 12 PM, 4PM, or 9 PM. All employees are kind welcoming and helpful

This place is perfect on a hot summer day. You can get a ice cream or a milk shake. It also has some very unique flavors. They place also has a large section of sweets as well.

These doughnuts are amazing! They have a staple of their normals and A rotating menu about the holidays or whatever they’re feeling. I haven’t had a donut here that I didn’t like! My personal favorites are the Panty Dropper and Infringement.

I've never had better donuts anywhere. They are all huge with specialty flavors. My favorite is Unicorn Farts, which is sprinkled with Fruity Pebbles. And the breakfast sandwiches! TO. DIE. FOR. I always get the Mornin' Meatloaf on a crescent roll. It's ooey gooey delicious, dripping in American cheese.

So good and such unique flavors! I got the campfire cutie and blueberry basil- both amazing! We also got the meatloaf breakfast sandwich on the cheddar biscuit- so much food for such a good price. Everything was incredible and we will definitely be back again to try other items!!

Decent donut shop (came around 10AM)—got the cinnamon crunch donut which was a yeasted donut. The cereal on top was stale and the topping was a bit too sweet. The girl at the register didn’t seem to know what donuts had what inside them. We asked what the fillings were for some and they kept going to the back to ask. The also didn’t know which was a cake donut and had to get clarification.

Absolutely delicious donuts. Fresh ingredients and a nice variety of flavors to choose from. There are also a few more simple options that are just as tasty. Staff and service was top notch. I'll be returning again very soon!

These doughnuts are incredible! A cookies and cream concoction that was yummy, the kids loved one called a unicorn fart so I never got a chance to try it, a croissant peach treat that was amazing, and several other flavors that I was thrilled to try! The service was quick and well above any expectation. I’ll definitely be back!

Every season is a great season at Diablo Doughnuts, but I have to admit,fall season is the best cause they bring back their Apple cider donuts!!’ Let me just tell you they are fabulous. They make them a rustic way with a crispy outside and nice and moist inside. And before the end of the season, I’ll buy a dozen and freeze them ,so I can have them when I want one. They’re worth every penny and worth every second to wait for💖😋

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!

Best cupcakes ever!!! MCC has been my go-to place for cupcakes since they opened! The Salted Caramel and Eclipse cupcakes are sooo good but the Full Moon is the bomb!! Their cupcakes are moist, almost muffin like and the vanilla bean icing is phenomenal! Chefs kiss! The bakery is so cute and the service is friendly. Highly recommend.

Midnite makes the best cupcakes in Baltimore, and maybe in the world. If you love a dense, moist, flavorful cake then you are going to love what Midnite has to offer. In fact, I loved the cupcakes so much that we ordered our wedding cake from Midnite! It was delicious, reasonably priced, and our guests raved about the taste. Dana was excellent to work with and helped us come up with decoration that fit our budget. She also didn't mind using sprinkles and decor we purchased ourselves. Thank you for a fantastic cake!!

Great local bakery with many options. The cupcakes at this place are delicious and not overly sweet. I love how they have rotating flavors. The customer service is always top-notch. Convenient location in the city.

If you're trying to find something for keto birthday but still satisfy everyone else this is the place! I was able to walk in and get a dozen delicious cupcakes 2 of which were keto for the guest of honor. She said they were really good. I had the Full Moon and it was moist, full of flavor but not overly sweet, definitely tasted homemade, not store bought. Service was friendly and accommodating. Couldn't ask for a better experience.

Midnight Confectionary is my absolute favorite cupcake shop in literally the whole world. I’ve eaten the best cupcakes in many different states and countries, and literally none of them compare to the perfection that is the Midnight Confectionary cupcake! The icing is the perfect consistency and sweetness , made from quality buttercream, and the cupcake is so moist and flavorful. I literally begged and pleaded to have the cupcakes shipped to me in Atlanta for my birthday because no other cupcake would do. It also helps that the owners are simply wonderful.

I needed to find a bakery in the Baltimore area for my nephews graduation (we live in NJ). After looking through so many websites, Midnite Confections was the winner and I am so happy!!! Dana was kind, easy to work with and accommodating!!! The cake? DELICIOUS!!!! Fresh strawberries and bananas! The cake was so amazing!! I cannot thank Dana enough for all her help and for making a spectacular cake!!! GiGi

After reading one review, I just knew I had to pop inside since my sweet tooth was calling my name. I am so glad I did, too!! I got the Full Moon and Sublimeinal cupcake. When I say these were the hands down best cupcakes I have ever tasted. They were super moist, and the frosting was not too sweet but will have you craving more. Whoever is baking these cupcakes has a serious gift!! I wanna know the secret, but I will be back for more!

Though you cannot directly visit Berger Cookies, they have excellent customer service. I had an issue with a package of cookies purchased via a provider on the store locator. Once I got in contact with the owner, she saw to it that I received fresh replacement cookies - being so kind as to validate "you deserve cookies." This meant so much to me as an out of town customer, given my purchase was my one chance to try their local specialty. The cookies are unlike any I've had in the best way. It's the perfect pairing of what reminds me of a sugar cookie x brownie hybrid. The taste is just the right amount of sweetness and rich chocolate flavor, that makes you savor every bite. I'm so thankful to have experienced this unique cookie. Definitely pick up a batch if you have the opportunity! It is my favorite Baltimore treat!

If you're not from here, you might not get it but it's definitely one of those "If you know, you KNOW" things. Rich, thick chocolate icing piled high on top of the best soft cookie you ever had! These cookies are one of the top reasons I'm glad I was born in Baltimore! If you're visiting and wanna find them, Royal Farms stores almost always have them in stock.

I've never had coconut cake this good in my life. I would rank this cake amongst the best Ive ever had. I will purposely make a stop here every time I am in Baltimore from now on.

Berger's cookies ftw! So delicious! Great with a coffee or any beverage on a fall day. Found mine at Giant

During my visit to Baltimore, MD, I visited the Lexington Market. I purchased several treats (Bergers Cookies, Red Velvet cake & Chocolate chip cookies) from the Market Bakery. My favorite treat was the Chocolate chip cookies.

A Baltimore staple and good reason for it! If you have not had a Berger cookie then you cant say you're from Baltimore. Many things change but Berger Cookie is one thing that has not and that is a testament to their recipe and how great the cookies taste. Great cookies and a great company!

I ordered some cookies for a gift. Three containers were delivered. I was giving 2 as gifts so I tried one from the extra box. I threw all of them out after one bite. They were awful !! Very dried out. They did not look like the nice picture on the website either. The chocolate was terrible tasting. Probably very poor quality that was cheap. Also made with margarine and other sub standard ingredients.

I am a huge fan of local bakeries and a big lover of sweet treats. I had high hopes for this place based on other reviews but unfortunately I was left with a very disgusting cupcake. The icing was like warm gelatin and the cake was soft but flavorless. It felt like it had been sitting out all day in the case. I also got their froyo and found it to be watery and not worth it. I don’t think I will be trying this place again.

I've only ever ordered cupcakes for delivery so I can't comment about the staff or the shop itself. But the cupcakes are very good. They're my go-to for random sweet cravings when I don't feel like going out. The vanilla ones are my favorite but the red velvet is good as well. The marshmallow flower ones are interesting in a good way. The cupcakes always arrive well-packaged with a temper-proof sticker. I will continue getting delivery from here when the cupcake craving comes again!

They were good, but I think they could have been bigger for the price. They’re much smaller than they appear. Also they didn’t give us a flavor we ordered. The cookie butter one doesn’t look appetizing 😅 other than that, they’re perfect for getting pricey cupcakes in a pinch. The staff was friendly!

Very cute shop with frozen yogurt and cupcakes. This is my usual go to for cupcakes but this time I found them denser and not as moist as usual. I brought a dozen, but didn't want them all because I didn't enjoy them this time. Everyone and business has there off days. This was costly adventure not to be able to enjoy what you paid for.

Absolutely delicious! I’m from Connecticut and the bakeries out there are to die for. Since I’ve been in Maryland I have yet to find a place that doesn’t taste like store-bought desserts this place I found just today. I am absolutely in love. The presentation is amazing. The cupcakes are rich and gourmet. This place is class.

The owner was extremely pleasant and chatting with a couple regulars when we walked in! They let us know they come in about once per week. The frosting on each cupcake was delicious but the cupcakes themselves were hit or miss in terms of moist/flavorful cake or dry/lacking flavor. I do agree they were a bit pricey given the size but with inflation I can understand why. Overall it was a pleasant experience.

Limited inventory and not very fresh. The 1 employee said he works 7 days a week and had came in late on this Sunday morning, so didn’t have time to make cupcakes. I had called a day in advance to let him know I would be coming in for a dozen mixed cupcakes for a birthday. Same quality available at a grocery store for a fifth of the price for a dozen cupcakes (over $50). I would have been happy to pay for quality and uniqueness. Disappointing.

I was searching for hot cross buns and this bakery kept popping up. I called and the lady on the phone was so nice. I drove an hour to get these buns and they were delicious. They were sprinkled with powdered sugar which I welcomed. The prices were very reasonable as well 💜

The donuts are made with love they're so delicious they're like heaven Sent Angels down to make them I've been going there for over 50 plus years same family owned business and take very good care of their workers they open early and if you're not there they're sold out by 1 in the afternoon

I had heard this bakery was good. When I drove to the location it looked very dark from the windows, that I almost thought it was closed. However I saw the open sign and went inside the bakery. The decor is very outdated but there was a decent selection of baked goods. I had a honey dipped donut and a marshmallow coconut donut. What this bakery lacked in decor was completely made up for in their food. The prices were great too! I was impressed and will be back! Don't let the outside and decor fool you, the baked goods are delicious!

The service was outstanding, probably one of the best I experienced. The donuts were yummy and fresh. The dough especially was amazing. The jelly was ok, bit too much. We are not from the area, but will definitely come back whenever we are close by. Thank you.

I don't know how anybody can give this place anything but 5 stars. Best bakery in Baltimore. I love this place everything is excellent.

Very nice local bakery! I loved the cake donuts (crullers). The cream filled are also very good, lots of filling. Can't wait to try cakes in the future.

Best donuts in the world! Nothing beats a chocolate old fashioned (except may a white powdered). The cakes can’t be beat, and I’ll always get a pizza bun in they have them.

Lovely cafe close to the waterfront! They actually serve Hojicha (Japanese Roasted Green Tea) here! It’s perfectly sweetened to balance out the deep earthiness. I ordered the Sophia Petit Gateau which was a lovely baby blue pastry with gold flake and layers of almond filling. It is delightful and not too sweet. Highly recommend The cafe is aesthetically pleasing with a blend of mid century modern and industrial chic vibes. Order at the front and grab a seat.

Sacre Sucré in Fells Point is a hidden gem that deserves its flowers. This pastry studio turned café and tea haven is redefining what true craftsmanship tastes like. From delicate macarons to buttery, golden viennoiseries, every piece is a masterclass in flavor and finesse. And of course they serve specialty coffee from some of the most respected roasters in the U.S. like Regalia and Prodigal. Each cup is dialed in with precision, flavor profiles on point, and brewed with the same passion that goes into their pastries. It’s more than dessert it’s an experience. If you’re in Baltimore and you haven’t been… you’re missing out.

The presentation on the bakery items were top tier and they tasted good as well. The service was great. They had a variety of teas and coffees. I got the hojicha latte which tasted too sweet for me but my husband enjoyed it. I liked that most of their sandwiches were on sourdough bread. They also sell their sourdough and baguettes. Definitely a must try if you’re in this area. The parking can be difficult on a Saturday since the farmers market is going on.

Update Oct 7, 2025 Went there early this morning (around 7:30) to get a birthday cake for my friend, only to find out they don’t have cakes on Mondays and Tuesdays. I was sad, but the staff was incredibly kind. He picked the prettiest pastries for me, repacked them beautifully in a box, and even handwrote “Happy Birthday :-)” on a little card, saying “It’s just one day a year!” 🥹 I was so touched, and my friend loved it too. Thank you, Sacré Sucré. You made my day again🫶🏼 And of course, I got one for myself too. As always, their croissant was also legendary. The layers, the texture, even the crispy, flaky ends were perfect. I actually cut through it slowly just to savor every slice of it. Look at those little layers at the end, just adorable!😍 / One of my favorite spots. Beautiful space, amazing cakes, and the croissant is perfect. Always puts me in a good mood. / Cappuccino with lovely “4 July” latte art— made my morning! Looked beautiful, tasted even better. The croissant was perfectly flaky.🥐☕️

I love this bakery shop bc they have pastries dessert and a dine in menu. Everything is made fresh. Pastries and dessert are pricey but dine in menu have a good price to it. One issue with this store is the checkout system, you order item from three categories as the line moving forward and at the end the cashier will handle all the items and put those into checkout. First time there they didn’t put my sourdough into checkout and second time they didn’t give me my baguette after checkout had to drive back for it. One thing that really needs improvement.

Saw this place on IG and took my mom. Exceeded my expectations. I had the Black Forest Petit Gateau,it was rich, creamy absolutely delicious!!! And the service was wonderful. I will definitely be back

My family and I were looking for an ice cold matcha on a hot summer day. There was a long line at a nearby café and Google Maps recommended this spot. Oh my. What a gem! It was cool, spacious, cozy, and the iced matcha latte was soooooo good. It was not too sweet. Unfortunately we were too stuffed for dessert but the pastries and cakes look amazing too. I would come to Baltimore just to come to Sacré Sucré!

Really liked this bakery! We came for savory/lunch dishes so didn’t get to sample a lot of the bakery offerings. However, I can say that the sandwiches are well made, great balance of seasoning and quality ingredients. I had a bagel with lox and it was certainly tasty, although I will say that it was not particularly crusty. Wife claimed her avocado toast was the best she’d ever had. Service was exceedingly friendly. Just note that there is very little seating.

So cute! I got an ube iced latte and it was delicious, their pastries looked so good. I’ll definitely be coming back for some bread as well. Small seating area inside, as well as outside.

I recently had a piece of the peach coffee cake, which looked and sounded good. The display piece is way bigger than what they give you, first of all, and second it came cold and was as dense and thick as a brick. Tasted fine but not trying to break my teeth. Also, it came in this large plastic to go container. Why? My americano was fine though.

The cheddar bacon chive scone and the blueberry lemon scone were fantastic! I also tried the banana espresso muffin which was good, but it was topped with salt and I think it should have been topped with sanding sugar instead. Lastly, I had the lox bagel sandwich which was good, but just average. I would definitely recommend this place for their pastries.

Turkey and Havarti on Sourdough was excellent. The kids had a delicious three cheese grilled cheese sandwich with a tomato sauce dip. The desserts all looked excellent. I had the Strawberry and Rhubarb Crostata, which was also excellent. The kids had a cinnamon bun and chocolate croissant they enjoyed. Cold brew was also on point. I will definitely be going back. Seating is very limited, but being a small cafe in downtown Baltimore’s expected.

I go here every Saturday morning before my 12 hour waitressing shift and they never disappoint. The croissants are SO GOOD. My favorite is the chocolate and pistachio croissants but the almond is really good too. My only suggestion is that they need to have 2 percent milk because I hate having whole milk or nondairy alternatives. This place is like a neighborhood staple and everyone that works there is very friendly :)

Small, warn cafe. It's a bit crowded in the morning. The bakery is fresh, but it a bit too sweet for me

Update! Even better. The waffles are perfect. The toppings are fun! Staff is nice! This is seriously one of the best spots in baltimore. If you aren't going here you are missing out! The waffle itself was delicious. Toppings were great. Lots of freedom for custom choices and they have a a handful of "favorites" if you don't want to make a choice. Reasonably priced. Once kids figure out about this place it is going to be mega crowded.

Phenomenal waffles! Price isn't too bad, but the wide variety of toppings combined with the friendly staff and pleasantly cooled interior makes this a great dessert place, especially in the summer. Would recommend, they get ice cream and waffles right!

Love this place! You choose your own toppings on a freshly baked waffle, and can add a scoop of Taharka ice cream for a few dollars more. The staff has always been very friendly, too!

So sad that this place is closing at end of July. Go now to get your fix! Delicious berry berry strawberry waffle! There were tons of strawberries, fruity pebbles, the waffle was fluffy and chewy, closer to the waffles I had in Belgium. We also had the ice cream that was great too! You won't be disappointed.

We wandered in after a friend told us about how good it was. The shop was empty at the time, so we were able to take our time to pick. I was surprised at how cheap it was! For two waffles loaded with toppings, it was about $9. And it was good! My boyfriend is obsessed and we definitely will be back for some decadent waffle desserts. I just wish they opened a bit earlier, but maybe it’s best to save the sugar rush for later in the day lol.

I ordered the cookie monster and my friend ordered the Aries birthday waffie. The waffle itself didn't taste great to me. The toppings were good and made it taste better. I also added marsallow topping. I was really expecting the waffle to taste amazing.

Wiffie is a small place next to local owned store fronts. So you might walk pass it and wouldn't even know. This is a small Gem if u want to eat local. The chicken was decent size tonio with a hefty waffle. Overall must stop spot.

My first time trying them. They were ok. The flavors and flexibility of the topping were amazing. The price was quite high and overall I still prefer cinnabon.

Goodbye slim waistline, I've now found something I want more than you: Cinnaholic! So good! If you are a fan of the sweet treats, put this place on your bucket list!

Absolutely delicious!! I have a dairy allergy, so having this vegan option and not needing to make any alterations was amazing. My whole family ate and enjoyed them. They don't taste any different because they are vegan. We will definitely be enjoying these again in the future. I am looking forward to trying more flavor combinations. The workers were also very kind and we didn't have to wait long for our order.

Got the Campfire S’more, was warm and very yummy, but the roll would probably be fresher if you go earlier in the day, and the Graham crackers were kinda stale. Still a very indulgent dessert, and nice taste overall.

Delicious gourmet and specialty cinnamon buns that just happen to be Vegan. There are a variety of toppings from fresh fruit to chocolate chips to crushed oreos. Sauces range from caramel based, to cream cheese and maple frosting. You can also get cookie dough and other baked goods. My favorites include the caramel apple one, the monkey business that has bitter chocolate and banana, and the maple crunch because their maple frosting is out of this world. You can make your cinnamon bun any which way you choose and they make it nice and hot for you. Is also good the following day.

These cinnamon rolls were absolutely amazing. I don’t know the exact name of these but believe it is the very berry and cookie cinnamon roll. My son ordered anyways this is his favorite spot and it was my first time. These are definitely worth every dollar. Reading the reviews I wasn’t even aware that they were vegan options so now I definitely have to go back.

There Cinnabons are excellent. I like the one with the strawberries and blueberries. Fresh ingredients. Friendly staff. They make the choice of Cinnabon there while you wait

Tried a couple of their cookies and they were good, but nothing to rave about. The White Chocolate Macadamia had a pleasant coconut-like flavor, though the white chocolate itself wasn’t very noticeable. The Mint Chocolate Chip was more enjoyable—refreshing and well-balanced in flavor. Overall, a decent treat, but not mind-blowing.

Cookies are always good (when they are baked). Been meaning to post this review for a couple of months. The manager (so she says) opened on a Saturday. I know her name, but don’t want to put her on complete blast. She had none of the cookie options I wanted baked (ok, they were the gluten free and vegan, so I gave her a pass there). I told her I wanted the double chocolate chip and she told me to come back in about 30 mins. I come back and she gave me the wrong cookie (chocolate chip), which I discovered after I paid when I was about to eat it. She said I would have to wait another 30 mins for the right cookie. My meter was expiring soon and I asked if I could have a refund or the correct cookie or even a complimentary cookie in the future since I didn’t get the right one, and she said she could not authorize that and would have to ask her district manager. I asked if a kid dropped their ice cream if she would have to ask the district manager that as well. She also gave excuses about being in traffic and short staffed which is why she wasn’t there on time to start baking cookies. All that to say, I had to put money in my meter just to get a free cookie of the one I did NOT order after she talked to the district manager. I recommend the Insomnia location in Fed Hill. Better customer service.

The cookies were subpar. The ice cream was delicious, and the location was nice. The gentleman who works here is hilarious (the older black man). Only reason I'm giving it 3 stars.

Terrible customer service. The cashier was so annoyed when we came in to buy some cookies. She yawned, didn't look up from her phone, made a long exhale noise, and said nothing. We ordered and she still said nothing. She sat down her phone to briefly touch the screen to input our order, put our cookies in a box, and then continued on her phone. I told her "thank you, have a good night" , and she just went " mmm hmm" as we left. 1 star because the cookies are amazing. No other stars because the service is terrible and makes us never want to come here again. Avoid this place, they don't actually want to sell you anything, they just want to watch videos on their phone and get paid to sit in the stool behind the register.

I get they are busy but it is not right to pack whatever they want in a box when you specifically order selected flavors. If I wanted to get anything assorted then I would have gone to Costco or Sam’s Club instead. I’m very upset because I was raving about this place to my friends and we got exactly the opposite of what we ordered. You can clearly see in the picture a sugar cookie and. Cranberry one that I never ordered. Just don’t take orders or mark it sold out or something! Sorry but I probably will never order again from this place. The cookies were great but I am not in favor of their delivery culture.

Amazing taste. Okay service. The woman in front of us asked if they had a certain type of cookie and the employee said, “I don’t know because I just got here”. She had to ask him to check. 🤦‍♀️ He seemed, um, pretty out of it. Cookies were great though!

stopped in on a late Saturday night, service was great and cookies were prepared perfectly!!

I’m out of state but I really wanted to order from a local vendor & the berries from Berries by Quicha were so impressive! Ordered them for delivery to my daughter for her graduation & was able to try one myself. They were huge, beautifully decorated, juicy & delicious.

I bought 4 Strawberries at the comedy show. Strawberries included a salted caramel, a snickers, a tequila one, and a flavor that I can't remember. All of them were good, the tequila one was a little too strong for me. The 4 strawberries were about $20. I will buy more strawberries and support this Black Business again.

Very professional service with Fresh and sweet products. Communication was excellent but most importantly, the owner was so kind. I'm not from Baltimore. I'm shocked at the poor customer service offered by black owned businesses here. You will not find that at BERRIES BY QUICHA. I love this place. I will always come back. I encourage you to try them for yourself. I promise she will be your go to for all your special occasions or when you want to pamper yourself. Thanks Quicha

Quicha was fabulous! I needed berries and pretzels for a client and she popped up in my search. I recommend everyone use her. First off you get Quicha in the phone taking the order and she makes suggestions on what looks best for your design. She was so patient with the changes my client wanted to make and took her time making sure she understood so they would be exactly what was expected. Thank you! You helped make my client's dessert table GREAT!

I bought from this vendor and I am no longer buying from Edible arrangements. This company has the biggest sweetest covered specialty strawberries that have ever tasted. She gets a 10 in my opinion. I bought them when I attended Shuler King comedy show today...just before I entered. Heck I ate two, gave one to a friend, took the Ciroc one home, then she went out got her done and I bought 4 more. I really loved them all but my best as the Cheesecake one. Yes real cheesecake stuff on and inside. I do plan to make this my special place for a healthy (well healthy to me) sweet. Go get you some.

I’ve used their Groupon deal a few times without any issues. This recent incident left me baffled, frustrated, and hurt. As usual I purchased the Groupon and then I called the store to place the order. The phone rang for a long while and on the very last ring someone picked up. I spoke to the front desk lady who I’m 100% sure is the older woman that is usually at the front on Saturdays when I pick up my berries. (I recognized her voice). She took down my Groupon code, my name, and number, and we arranged for me to pick up on 7/12. Soon after we got off the phone Quicha herself returned my call. She introduced herself and said she was returning my call and I told her that one of the workers already took care of me. We hung up. So all was well, or so I thought. To my shock I walked in on 7/12 for my pickup and was told that they didn’t have me down for Groupon pickup. Side note, I came in within the hour that they opened, being that I live 30 mins away and I wanted to avoid any possible traffic or inconveniences on the road. So I assured the same front desk lady that I called and spoke to someone (her), who took down my code and info. I tell them that my code was redeemed, which I thought it was because I gave the lady the code over the phone. I simply thought they redeemed the code when they took it from us, turns out they don’t, so that was my mistake. But that didn’t negate the fact that I called and placed an order and had my info taken down and scheduled a pickup date. I’m insisted on this because obviously I wasn’t lying. The lady kept telling me they don’t have me down and she doesn’t know who I spoke to. She finally called Quicha and Quicha basically let me know that they don’t have me down and my code isn’t redeemed so there’s nothing they can do about it. I just kept telling them that I spoke to someone who took my information and I just drove 30 minutes to get here. Quicha said there’s nothing they can do and I just need to place another order. Also, the front desk woman had said they don’t have enough berries to even make me an order, and Quicha said if my code had been redeemed they could’ve done something but since it’s not redeemed they can’t help me. So which is it? You don’t have enough berries or you just don’t want to admit that my information wasn’t jotted down, or it was, and it was lost or it wasn’t relayed properly? So long story short they turned me away empty handed and I drove 30 minutes back home with nothing. So that left a bad taste in my mouth, it really hurt my feelings because why would I lie about something like that?? Because essentially that’s what they were insinuating. They didn’t try to offer me any alternatives at all, nope, just come back next week and try again. I didn’t sense any empathy or any accountability for the possibility of a mistake on their end, no alternative solutions were offered to me. I kept my composure the whole time and I wasn’t rude at all, even though I was seriously upset that I was put in a position to have to convince them that I called and placed an order. Like I said, I’ve used their Groupon multiple times before without issues. I’ve even done their paint and sips with my best friend. I just didn’t expect that to happen and like I said my feelings were really hurt. I had had a rough week prior and I really looked forward to getting my berries on Saturday, so I definitely shed some tears driving home empty handed. I’m picking up my berries today, this was the rescheduled date that I chose. I meant to leave a review last time but I was busy, but I remembered today.

This was my first visit after purchasing a Groupon. From the onset, as soon as I said Groupon, I got nothing but attitude. The phone number on the Groupon doesn't work, so I had to google the shop. Then, I called on Monday and was curtly told, after mentioning that I had a that I had a groupon, to call back the next day, and I had to rush and ask the time before they hung up. When I called the next day, mentioning my Groupon, again, more curt responses. The "inscripted" berries that they advertise is only 5 letters total. That's right, not 5 letters per strawberry, 5 total letters. What can anyone spell in 5 letters. I was given any options either, and my groupon was redeemed immediately. All they wanted to know was when I was coming to pick them up. The guy at the register was kind of abrasive too. I could he was taken aback at my taking pictures of the store as he sat outside. Of course, I had no idea that he worked there. I also asked if I could use my BOP pass to get 1 free strawberry with the purchase of a dozen, but I was told "no" because of my groupon discount. I tried one of the berries, and it was ok. The service is what did it for me. Never again.

Taharka Brothers was a wonderful addition to our wedding! The ice cream was a huge hit, and our guests loved it. The staff were absolutely wonderful—so friendly, professional, and kind to all of our guests. We’re so grateful to Taharka Brothers for being a part of our wedding. If you’re looking for something memorable, sweet, and totally crowd-pleasing, we can’t recommend them enough!

We got free ice cream during our visit because a wrong order went out and we asked to take it before the trash can could. This is top notch ice cream, and the Honey Graham is a must-try. It kind of tastes like the aftertaste of eating a graham cracker — that moment when it’s sort of melting in your mouth. I just wish they had more flavors. It seems like they were selling out. 8.5

Tastes great and they give good sized scoops for pretty cheap with free toppings!

Great ice cream, with many unique flavors. The blackberry cherry chocolate ice cream was good. Also if you get a waffle cone you get almost twice the ice cream and it tastes great.

Exceptional ice cream! Amazing variety of esquire flavors! I’m very picky and have a sensitive system, so I was absolutely pleased to taste this delicious ice cream and discover its high quality and natural ingredients!!!! I also love the management. I had to call to ask about home delivery (which is offered thank goodness) and encountered the owner, ‘GERALD’ who was so very personable, helpful, professional, and compassionate! He even extended a courtesy that I was very very pleasantly shocked to receive! This place deserves your patronage bc the service and management is as exceptional as the CREAM DELECTABLE YUMMY-FOR-YOUR-TUMMY, unbelievable good Taharka ice cream!!! Tell em I sent ya!!! Bless their hearts their ice cream establishment and their delicious products! Amen!!!

Taharka is the best ice cream in the City! It's got heart, soul and sabor! And the staff will make you feel like a rock star! Keep up the good work!

Their flavors might be good if you don't like something particularly sweet, but if you have a sweet tooth you will be majorly disappointed. I've tried their roasted strawberry and their key lime and both were so bitter/sour I could only eat a spoonful of each.

-{UPDATE! 1/5/25 10:00 am picked up my order & the young lady who brought my food out wasn't personable in the least with a funky attitude (could have been just a bad morning) But c'mon a snotty attitude with someone who didn't do anything to you!? Typical 🤦‍♂️These young adults these days STINK in one way or the other! I will keep shopping there tho, I love the store & not all of the employees there are trying. I left date & time so you can address Ms Nappy Boots 🙄😒😑 end of updated review}- All I'm going to say is, when you order a "pick up order". Your substitutions are IGNORED!!! 😡 Why give me an opportunity to pick substitutions, when you WILL NOT even look for 1???? Other than that I really like the store 🥰🥰

My first time here. I came for the Mardi Gras specials. This was a very nice store. Very clean. The aisle directories are a bit too far into the aisle. So finding things took a bit of wondering. My unfamiliarity with the store may have also been a contributing factor to this. I was able to find all the items I came to purchase . Thus a well stocked store. The ground beef I bought was also very fresh. A big shout out to Chemise my cashier. She has a wonderful sense of humor and delightful attitude. As a veteran of many, many Shop Rites (from the Catskills to Cape may) it was a pleasure.

This is a very clean and well stocked grocery store. I have stopped here on occasion leaving work for dinner ingredients. I love the seafood here. Fresh everytime I stop! I have one tiny complaint - there to go sandwiches - don't bother with, but otherwise great store!!! The service from their employees is 4Stars too!!

I love this store it is huge and most of all very clean with a wide variety to choose from plants, garden furnishings, western Union anything you can think of and great seafood selection one stop shop even a Pharmacy. *So I noticed they have added a salad bar I will be trying it out next trip and I'll update this review on how good or bad it is. Cant wait.

I went here just to pick up two items that I love that are sold out everywhere else. I left with $120 worth of groceries 🥴 Hear me out! The store has a nice open floor plan and it’s clean. Very well stocked. All of the staff there is very friendly and helpful. Even the Pepsi vendor that was there was willing to answer question about a Pepsi product I was looking for. My mom was even able to find a few things that she had been looking for in other grocery stores for months with no luck. The prices were about the same as Giant. But if you download the app, there are a bunch of great coupons for at least $1 to $10 off a ton of items. If you’re in the area or don’t mind a 25 minute drive from the county, I highly recommend this location.

I DETEST these people at the front bugging me about a Sun paper subscription and coupons. They are annoying and obnoxious Well stocked. Self checkout very functional. Got the store brand honey roasted almonds - that was a poor decision on my part... Excellent selection of items Need more pharmacy staff on weekends Well prepared for Thanksgiving. Lots of greens and smoked turkey meat

I just love the store the employees are so nice and friendly Lisa the manager everybody I love them and they love me I give you 100 Stars 💥💥⭐🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

I was truly impressed! As a board member of a company that recently hosted an event at The Cove, an extension of this esteemed restaurant, I had the pleasure of engaging with Johnathan, who provided insightful information about the establishment and the unique dining experience it offers. Intrigued, I decided to visit the restaurant, and I must say, Johnathan's recommendations were spot on. Although he was not my server, he took the time to greet me and assure me that I would thoroughly enjoy my meal. My server, John, was exceptionally suited for the role. He was attentive and efficient, engaging me in delightful conversation while offering excellent recommendations regarding the menu. Furthermore, he went above and beyond to make me feel special in celebration of my upcoming birthday. The food was absolutely divine! The portion sizes were generous, the flavors were exquisite, and the quality was outstanding. I have come to cherish this hidden gem and intend to return frequently to savor the experience. Following dinner, I visited the bar area, where Will provided engaging conversation, positive energy, and more delectable dishes. I also had the opportunity to speak with the owner, who graciously shared captivating stories about the company's inception. Citron has undoubtedly captured my heart.

I had an amazing time for my birthday. The food was cooked to perfection. The drinks were really good. The atmosphere was classy and elegant. The owner and staff were very helpful in making sure my birthday was special. My server “Will” did a great job, he was very attentive to me and my guest. He had an amazing attitude and was very professional. I completely recommend Citron Restaurant. I will definitely be returning.

Thank you so much Citron for an AMAZINGLY MEMORABLE birthday dinner and experience!! My guests and I had a fabulous time celebrating!! They are still talking about the food and service! I am so thankful for John, Cebee (sp?), Ronaldo, and everyone who was on the team that night! When I arrived, I was escorted to a gorgeous table set outside on the lakefront! The entire evening, dinnerscape, the details, the florals, the toast, the service, the thoughtfulness was absolutely UNMATCHED!! The evening was filled with so many beautiful surprises! I truly appreciate the way you pour into your guests and made me and everyone feel so special. Since my first private event, Charles and his team have been an absolute blessing to me and everyone I bring through Citron’s doors! Book your birthday dinner or private event here— you will not regret it!

My son had his wedding reception at Citron and all I can say about it... A wonderful experience ✨️. Atmosphere was great! Service was excellent and the food was great 👍🏾. Thank you!

My family and I had a wonderful dinner here to celebrate my milestone birthday. I love waterfront dining and Citron's setting could not be better. The food was deliciously prepared and the wait staff was attentive but did not hover. They allowed plenty of time for a relaxing, exceptionally pleasant evening.

I took my girlfriend to Citron Restaurant for her birthday dinner and everything was absolutely perfect from start to finish. We were seated outside, and the view overlooking the water was peaceful and stunning—complete with ducks and wildlife, which made the evening feel even more special. The food was exceptional. My girlfriend ordered the lamb shank with herb risotto, and it was rich, flavorful, and fell right off the bone. I had the 16 oz prime French cut cowboy steak—juicy, tender, and cooked exactly how I asked. Hands down one of the best steaks I’ve had in Maryland. Our waiter Jonathan provided excellent service. He was friendly, conversational, and genuinely made us feel welcome without rushing us. The place was also spotless—clean tables, polished glassware, and great ambiance all around. Whether you’re celebrating something special or just looking for a top-tier dining experience with a scenic view, Citron is a must-visit. We’ll definitely be back!

Went here for my birthday dinner and had some of the best service and food ever. Our server was will, and he couldn’t have been more welcoming, helpful, and kind. He exceeded every expectation and went above and beyond to ensure I was comfortable and taken care of and I have nothing but shining things to say about his service and attitude. His attitude made my evening, as well as my family’s, and even if the food had been bad(which it was not) I would come back again just to see him.

The hospitality was superb. The staff and waiters are super nice, helpful, and polite. The service was good. Would have preferred to have a less wait time between courses (5-8 min). I really enjoyed the food. Came with free bread and wine butter. It tasted great and the presentation was very classy. Portion sizes were adequate. The ambiance was magnificent coming with a live band on certain nights at certain times making it a great place if you want to impress a date.

I wish I could give it a 5*, but due to covid19 I have to hold the 5* until we go visit when everything is back to normal. Found it online for Valentine’s Day celebration. We definitely will be back! Photographs speak for themselves, but I have to tell you that this restaurant is amazing. We have a lot of food from the menu to taste yet, but the experience we had visiting during covid19, overall, was very satisfying. The food, the service, the style, the plating, the decor, the cleanliness and the environment; everything was very enjoyable. Covid19 restrictions: 1 hour dining :( - (city area only) - this is one of the reasons for the 4* 6 feet distance Masks 😷 Parking information: Paid parking, restricted depending on weekdays and time, but it is free on weekends.

Wonderful establishment. The decor is stunning and within walking distance of Fells Point and the Inner Harbor. Our server Dave was great. We never had to ask for drink refills, he was constantly refilling our glasses. We started off with various cocktails 🍹🍸and enjoyed a bottle of Cabernet Franc 🍷 we happily were there during restaurant week so I was able to enjoy a 3 course meal for $35 😋👍🏼my husband enjoyed his steak and 2 others the salmon and another the short rib. Quite pleased with this visit and look forward to returning and trying their sister restaurants. 👏🏼😛⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The food was fantastic! Service was excellent, chic ambiance, great live music. Didn't care for their cocktails though. I'm not a great fan of the new age cocktails of herbs and alcohol. Lovely wine selection.

**click on my name to see all 13pictures** Proper attire required, Valet Parking on site (5$ validated) The place is elegant in and on itself, a two story restaurant open barn style feel on the inside with intimate/inviting setting on each table. When we walked in we were escorted to the Bar/Lounge area to wait for our table to be ready (place was full as it was still Restaurant week). Drinks were refreshing and delicious, food- appetizers and entrees- were exquisite and perfectly cooked, desserts were an interesting mix although delicious as well. Service was really good and attentive throughout the time we were there. Its a great place for intimate/romantic dinners. Price wise I would give it 4/5.

Wow! What more can I say? Well, let me try... I visited this restaurant this evening because we had a pharmaceutical dinner there. Fantastic choice Gilead! Everything from parking to entering the establishment was fantastic! The restaurant is in a very very busy and popular area of Harbor East/ Fells Point but I managed to get parking directly in front of the establishment at a meter that ended at 8 p.m. I paid less than 2 bucks to park. Anyway, as soon as I walked in I was greeted by an employee who offered to take me to my party. To be honest, I wasn't ready to be seated. This place is absolutely gorgeous! The ceilings are almost non-existent because they're so high and the decor is beautiful! From upstairs, they have a overlook where you can see everyone downstairs in the dining area as well as the bar. The private rooms are very intimate and well-decorated. They have a few private rooms that can host parties as small as 5 as large as is 20+. Within two minutes of sitting down, I was greeted by Gregory offering beverage of choice. From then on, everything continued to stay consistent with being flawless. After a few rounds of delicious appetizers, I ordered the Sopa de Bife en Caldo (Oxtail Soup), Pollo a la Plancha & Banana Cocunut Mousse. Each and every single thing was delicious! The attention given by all of the staff members especially Gregory was impeccable! They always came around at the best times, and made sure we had everything needed at all times. The climate was really comfortable, clean and Visually beautiful and the location was perfect! I definitely look forward to returning back with friends and family members not only to attend happy hour but also to grab a meal and fellowship with those I love. If you have not been here, make it a priority to come! You will not be disappointed! Great addition to Harbor East/ Fells Point!

This was our fifth visit to BV, first for a holiday/event menu. Overall, still one of our city favorites. Great place for a night out with someone special or friends. Have been a couple times and BV never disappoints. Went for New Year's Eve and had a great evening. They were offering a prix fixe, 3 course menu for $89/person. We had the tuna tartare (wish this was always on the menu), crispy oysters, braised shirt rib (huge portion) and the lamb chops (2 bones). We both had the pear empanada with vanilla bean honey & matcha green ice cream for dessert. Worth the splurge, with the tuna tartare being the standout. Pros: great atmosphere, live music, attentive staff, delicious meal and great wine selection. Cons: 30 minutes late being seated and lamb was underdone (ordered medium, came out rare). Despite running behind on reservations, the staff was attentive and proactive in letting us know as soon as we arrived. We had a 10pm reservation and were planning on being there to ring in the New Year so that was not an issue for us. There was ample seating at the 2nd floor bar so we order cocktails and enjoyed the music while waiting. The lamb came out underdone but my guy was ok with that. If it were mine, I would have had to ask for a few more minutes on the fire. I'm willing to let that slide once. That was the first "doneness" issue we had after multiple dining experiences. I'm sure had we asked, they would have remedied but we didn't ask so can't hold that against them.

Cafe Dear Leon is a small yet busy bakery and coffee shop in Canton Square in Baltimore, MD. I have been several times and suggest that if you decide to come down, prepare to wait a bit, just depends on their bake schedule and how much time you have. They frequently run out of items but that speaks to the quality of the food they put out. Never hand anything bad there honestly. Today was the crabby Tobago while it was tasty I do prefer the original. Also had the smores cookie which was phenomenal. Give this place a try if you're a food with a sweet n savory tooth and fan of the small bakeries out there!!

When I travel I always skip tolls. Not to save money but it takes me off the beaten path and through small towns a s big cities to find great food. In this case I came across Café Dear Leon. Everything was delicious but their Carb Dip Bagel is worth the wait and taking a detour. I bought 2. One for day of and one for breakfast 2 days later. I made an egg sandwich that I added my Fauquier Famous Bomb Sauce!

arrived at around 8:30 on a sunday morning and waited about 30 minutes. SO worth the wait! their sweet pastries are a dream for anyone who doesn’t have a major sweet tooth. i tried the guava & cheese danish, blueberries & lemon ricotta danish, and creme brulee tart from the sweet pastry options, and all were filled so generously without tasting too sweet. both danishes had tart flavors that balanced the sweetness so perfectly, and i’ll definitely be thinking about the guava & cheese danish for a long time!

I have been to a lot of bakeries and this might be my favorite out of all of them. We are truly lucky to have a bakery of this caliber in Baltimore. The Crab Dip bagel and Crème Brûlée tart are divine. Get there early and follow the bake schedule listed on their website. They sell out quick!

It took me a minute before I actually went..... And I'm pretty sure this was Cosmopolitan back in the day (if you know you know) but in any case it's this wonderful place now, so embrace it. Incredible sandos! Why have you not had one? Have 2. YES there will be a line. It's how it goes. Deal with it. It's worth the wait!

Cafe Dear Leon is such a beautiful small shop! Great customer service and has a seating area. We got the crab dip bagel and the crème brûlée tart. WOW these were amazing 10/10

I was really looking forward to trying Dear Leon’s pastries after seeing so many photos on social media. Fortunately, my wait wasn’t bad and the service once inside was quick. The product, however, left a lot to be desired. The baklava latte was sickening sweet and two different pastries had broken custards, which was so disappointing.

This place is awesome! So many great baked goods to choose from, a full breakfast and lunch menu, and other goodies in the fridge area. This is my first time here. I stopped to get a novelty cupcake as a gift. I found a really cute cupcake, then discovered the amazing bulk discount bags of muffins and stuff, and I also decided to get the donut breakfast sandwich. Everything was delicious and for a great price. Highly recommend!

Thank you to Bakery Express for creating a beautiful and tasty graduation cake for my son. I was so pleased with how close the cake looked to the picture I sent them.

I recently stopped by Bakery Express and ordered a dozen donuts. While they weren’t the absolute best I’ve ever had, they were definitely a major step up from your typical chain donut shop. What really stood out were the unbeatable prices — it’s hard to find that kind of value anywhere these days. The atmosphere was casual and welcoming, with both the staff and fellow customers being incredibly friendly. I also really liked the setup of self-seating and self-serve, which made the experience feel relaxed and easygoing. Overall, Bakery Express delivered a solid visit, and I’d definitely go back when I’m craving something sweet without the chain store vibe.

The staff is amazingly nice and so is the food. Tried the donuts last week and nearly lost my mind…best and freshest donuts in town hands down. As I was leaving another customer told me, “you have got to try the chili on the cold weather….oh my GOD”..now I am looking forward to winter…first time here but definitely not my last

When I tell you that bakery express doesn’t disappoint you… Believe me!!! I placed an order for a (1) year old birthday cake and folks the cake design was exactly what I ask for. The cake was also fresh and delicious 😋

Bakery Express is a great little spot! Everything was priced really well, which was a pleasant surprise. The donuts were fresh and tasty, and my wife absolutely loved her breakfast sandwich. We’ll definitely be coming back next time we’re in the area!

Must admit, the hype is REAL! They have THE BEST pastries in Baltimore and that's no lie. If you get a chance, check em out & see for yourself

We stopped by charm city cakes after we went to the aquarium. I picked up 5 cupcakes and 2 cookies. The chocolate base of my cupcakes tasted like a Costco chocolate muffin. Kinda dry and simple flavor. The icing on my cupcakes were buttery and light but not that flavorful. The espresso icing had the most flavor. The 2 chocolate chip cookies I got tasted a day or 2 old. The flavor was good but the cookie was basically crumbling, I was hoping for a softer texture. I wouldn’t go out of my way to return here but I think it’s still worth trying. The cashier was very nice though!

I was so excited to come here. Have watched Duff for years! Unfortunately, I was so disappointed in the cupcakes. The frosting, however, was wonderful. Smooth and silky. I bought a dozen (for $50) in a variety of flavors as well as two jar cakes. The cakes are all the same flavor, either a yellow cake or a chocolate cake. They were really dry and crumbly. The different flavors were the frosting. Passion fruit cupcake was yellow cake with a passion fruit frosting. Espresso was a dark chocolate cake with Espresso frosting and so on. Had such high hopes for the product of my favorite bakery star.

We love Charm City Cakes! We first started getting cupcakes here during lockdown of the pandemic. We would go for walks in the neighborhood, and we noticed their little window with the open sign and the doorbell you could ring and order cupcakes. It soon became a regular stop on neighborhood walks. We love the seasonal cupcakes and the cake jars, and, I'm not overstating this here, the best chocolate chip cookie in the city. It's lacy and chewy and sprinkled with sea salt. Oh, and you get to look at all the amazing sample cakes on display. They've got merch, and they also have cute little baking kits for kids, among other gifts. Can't wait till my little one is old enough to take a kids class here!

Enjoyed our visit and loaded up on cakes in a jar! Derrick, the retail manager, was professional, polite, and knowledgeable! Will definitely be back!

We got the passion fruit cake in a jar…the cake was dry and the frosting was overly greasy (to much butter) and tasted like artificial passion fruit. I know Duff would definitely have cut this baker if it had been on TV.

My daughter and I were so delighted by Charm City Cakes. We got there a bit too early, but that gave us time to look around and find the buffalo! (Hint: Read the signs!) We took a beginner class (my daughter is six) for decorating unicorn cupcakes. I had never decorated with fondant before, so it was completely appropriate for both of us. Annamarie and Persi (I'm sorry if I made mistakes on your names!) were very pleasant and joyful. The fondant and tools were all conveniently available (although the fondant colors were different than the picture shown). I highly recommend the class, and I thought the cupcakes themselves were quite tasty! If you're visiting the Inner Harbor, take a trip to Charm City cakes. It's worth it!

Ordered 6 cupcakes for delivery in Baltimore. They came perfectly packaged and beautiful with quick delivery. Like nearly everyone else, I watched the show many years back so I was excited to try the vanilla, cookies and cream and passion fruit cupcakes. This would really be 4.5 stars because I didn't love the frosting. It was creamy, not as sweet as you'd expect frosting to be and in some cases, almost a little flavorless. But the cake part was delicious in all three, sturdy but not dry, and sweet. I assume the frosting isn't as sweet because the cake is, which would make sense. I will order from here again, or may order a full cake some day soon.

Bought a Cotton Candy and a Watermelon snowball- $9.40 on 6/19/25. They had No flavor, worst snowballs ever, and the Cotton Candy was red(?) or I believe it was the Cotton candy. What happened to this place?? I'm guessing new owners and cheaper flavor syrup. This place was once on the news for best snowballs in Baltimore City two years in a row. Not Any More. I won't be going back. I'll just stick with Rita's.
