Part micro-bakery, part pastel dreamscape, this Friday-Sunday pastry haven is everything. You’ll want to set an alarm – these buns (cinnamon, strawberry-lemon, cardamom, and the epic maple bacon “lumberjack”) will sell out by 11 AM. Catch them while they’re hot!
The ghost of Blue Hill Tavern has been reincarnated into a sleek, modern American tavern with major date-night vibes. Union Hill is plating up steak frites, tuna tartare, and a shrimp “noodle” ceviche with spicy citrus broth that’s just the right amount of extra. Also, weekend brunch is available. Pro-tip: Add ice cream to your French toast.
From pop-up at Harborplace to its permanent in Fells Point, Oleum is a must for plant-based babes. Their Dreamsicle mocktail is proof that non-alcoholic menus are the new cocktail menus. And yes, we’re here for it.
Part Sicilian pizzeria, part café, part sunshine-and-picnic-table situation, Doppio hits all the right notes. The arancini are cheesy perfection and the plain slice? Surprisingly profound. Sometimes less really is more.
Okay, it’s not technically Baltimore – but it’s worth the drive. Located inside a restored monastery, this restaurant turns local ingredients into edible art. Funnel cake beet salad, dry-aged steak, warm cookies – need I say more?
