Fløyd L.

After a long day I needed some coffee to re boot my energy ‍. Typed in coffee near me and this was the 2nd to pop up "the 1st was about to close in 15min" The employees are so friendly and kind. The environment is so relaxing and peaceful. Think I found my favorite coffee spot in Baltimore

Hot chocolate
Amanda P.

I did a little hot chocolate adventure for my Baltimore food instagram (@AmandaTheEpicure) where I ranked my favorites, and this was in my top 3 across the city! A surprise top choice for me as it was more of a milk chocolate, and I normally prefer dark! However, it was smooth with a clear and present chocolate flavor. There was no milky aftertaste either, which I find to be the case with lighter hot chocolates. If you want a classic, lighter experience, this is the choice for you. The cup is also beautiful which adds to the ambiance and overall vibes :)

Wasn't bad, but wasn't amazing either. My husband and I paid $27 for 2 small drinks and 2 small pastries that weren't that good. The Vietnamese cappuccino tasted like regular black coffee. The iced hazelnut latte had large clumps of chocolate and cinnamon powder which just ruined the coffee for me. The desserts were a big stale, but I also came at 5:30 ish. Which means they have been sitting there for a good portion of the day. The staff was very nice! I asked for this opinions on what I should get and they were very helpful! They offer bubble tea and froyo too! I'm not sure how those products are from this establishment, and I don't think I ever will. It's a cute place that offers a lot but I wouldn't come back again.

Macarons
Kathea S.

After checking out Checkerspot Brewing, I wanted something sweet but not ice cream. One yelp search and a couple blocks later and we found this place. The kiddo got froyo and actually ate all of it. We got a sampling of all the macarons. Buy five and get one free. Oh so there are six flavors? Look at that. Two awesome little bites. Loved all the flavors but the lemon and coffee were clear winners. And I'm a chocolate girl saying that. Not heavy at all. Just the right amount of sweet. Gosh we've got to get into the city more.

Frozen yogurt
Ann W.

Came across this cute cafe in Fed Hill and will for sure return! The service and atmosphere felt so cozy and homie. I recommend the fro-yo! It's light, flavorful, and not too sweet.

Cute coffee and frozen yogurt shop in historic Federal Hill near Baltimore inner harbor. Sparkling clean, lounge music, friendly service. Selection of teas, pastries, cookies, Illy coffee. They also serve kimchi lunch bowl and can make Korean steam buns with red beens pastry filling. Cookies are really good

Dessert case

I had wanted to stop by here a couple times before but they were closed during the hours when they said they'd be open. But this time they were open when I was walking by so I popped in for some soft serve. The owner (pretty sure he's the owner based on insta) was super friendly and said the soft serve flavor I wanted wasn't quite ready, but he would try and get it ready quicker. I didn't mind, plus it was pouring rain outside so I'm sure he was prioritizing other things over the froyo. When it was ready, he thanked me for my patience and gave me a 30% discount for the wait! Will def visit again. Cute date spot or coffee/study spot.

Feels like I'm walking into my relatives house. Good drinks, good treat and hysterical frozen yogurt. Also they accommodate to us lactose people! Fun hang out ambiance and super nice man that runs it, literally treats you like a family member. I would 10/10 would recommend if in Fed Hill!!

Tart froyo
Yurie H.

I love froyo and I've had so many froyo cravings while at Hopkins that have gone unfulfilled:( I came here today because I saw that they sold froyo and my family and I were visiting Baltimore. Wowow the tart froyo they sell here is so good and tart and delicious! Super refreshing and I am so happy that I'll be able to come back once classes starts.

Blueberry and taro froyo
Belita H.

I checked out Afters Cafe with a small group of friends and it definitely gave me cozy cafe vibes. We went in the evening and there was great seating area with some couches and chairs for everyone to chat. I got a mixture of the blueberry and taro frozen yogurt, along with passion fruit popping boba and gummy bears. The blueberry yogurt was very creamy and fresh! The taro had an almost coconuty note to it and I loved the unique flavor. I found out they have red bean taiyaki that are made fresh to order, so I'll be getting that next time.

Red bean tayaki, Iced Coffee

The owner was so friendly and asked for all of our input when making our drinks. He explained all of the menu items and adjusted our orders to our liking. The place is so clean and there's games to keep us occupied! The homemade frozen yogurt and red bean tayaki was amazing!

Looking to avoid another experience with the green siren woman, we aimed our feet for this part of town and landed at Afters. Pastries, coffees and six different flavors of frozen yogurt with a decent assortment of toppings. It's Illy coffee, which is usually quite good. High top tables, some lower ones with two sofas and seats outside where you can watch the traffic go by on this busy thoroughfare. Decent service, even if I had to remind the gal that we still needed two cups of cold water in addition to our espressos. Free wifi worked well once I had the password.

Amazing!!! Everything was delicious. Iced jasmine green tea is also amazing!!!
Ty A.

Amazing desserts and drinks. Probably one of the best I've had so far!! And the ppl/worker was so nice and informative. You can also customize your drinks. 10/10!!

See all

How is the parking?

It is street parking, so it will depend on time of day. During the late afternoon and evening on weekdays isn't bad. The weekends are more troublesome during anytime of the day.

Federal Hill

Came here while visiting Baltimore and it was genuinely one of the best coffee shop experiences…read moreI've had in a while! I walked over with my friend, who lives nearby, and we brought my dog along. Morning Mugs made all of us feel right at home. Dogs are totally welcome on the patio, and there's even a pup cup station inside so your furry friends can indulge too. Mine was thrilled. Inside, the vibe is super inviting. It's the kind of café that clearly cares about regulars and newcomers alike. The barista recommended their famous Banana Bread Latte, and I had to try it. WOW a true 10/10! The banana flavor is real, not artificial, and it pairs perfectly with espresso. I also ordered the Breakfast Sandwich, which was served on a flaky, buttery croissant, layered with sausage, fluffy scrambled eggs, and sharp cheddar. Pro tip: order a side of their lime crema for dipping ... it was honestly incredible and tied all the flavors together. I loved it so much that I came back the next morning before heading back to Virginia Beach (couldn't resist). This time, I tried the Blueberry Cookie Butter Latte .... absolutely amazing. It's creamy, subtly sweet, and a fun, unique twist I haven't seen anywhere else. Another huge plus: the owner is extremely friendly. On my first visit, he even brought down the big bear mascot so my friend's kid could give it a hug, which totally made the morning. This is the kind of neighborhood spot you wish you had at home: super welcoming, dog-friendly, and clearly passionate about great drinks and community. Highly recommend a visit, whether you're local or just passing through!

Finally got to try this spot after following them on Instagram forever!!…read more The vibes are definitely cute. The shop is in a cute little side street of Fed Hill and it looks like a garage on the outside. The inside is smaller than I expected, but cozy nonetheless. I ordered a spring menu iced latte, a hot chai, and a breakfast sandwich with the black bean patty. While I was ordering I felt kind of rushed, the worker asked "is that all?" after every single thing I ordered and even cut me off a couple times to finish my sentence. I did like that we got to guess our cup cozy colors though (I got both of them wrong lol) but if you guess the color right you get 10% off! The latte was absolutely delicious and the breakfast sandwich was great too. The black bean patty was divine, crispy with corn and lots of seasoning. I also got a side of the cilantro lime crema which made it better for sure. I am looking forward to coming back to grab some more amazing coffee!!

Matriarch Coffee lived up to every bit of the hype -- and then some…read more I'd been hearing about Matriarch Coffee for a while from friends near me in the DMV, and I finally made the drive up to Baltimore to see what all the hype was about. Short answer: absolutely worth it!Long answer: I'm already thinking about my next excuse to come back. Walking in, the space immediately delivers. The aesthetic is awesome-- the kind of intentional, beautifully designed interior that feels warm and curated rather than staged. It's trendy without being cold, and the Inner Harbor location makes it that much more special. I know there is a huge renovation planned "down the harbor" , this Matriarch is ALREADY READY! You get all the energy of the waterfront with a cozy, tucked-in feel once you're inside. Now, the coffee. I got a latte that was genuinely one of the better cups I've had in a long time -- smooth, rich, perfectly pulled. I also had a Chai and paired it with a cherry & cheese danish that was fresh and delicious, the ideal complement to the drink. I asked for it heated and it was hot all the way through. Hate it when I get it and it is cold in the middle...the barista understood the assignment and got us right! Everything felt thoughtful, like someone in that kitchen actually cares about what they're putting out -- because they do. Speaking of which -- I had the pleasure of meeting the owner, and it all made sense. Warm, passionate, and clearly proud of what they've built. Shirts, cups, napkins, and merch that says "I love my Matriarch" is a reminder of the "Why" behind this spot I think. That kind of energy flows through the entire space and staff. You feel it the moment you walk in. The Matriarch isn't just a coffee shop. It's a destination. If you're in Baltimore, this is a must. If you're outside the city -- make the drive. Trust me. See you soon, Matriarch!

Second time in, this time I ordered. Neat space for a coffee shop, overlooking the harbor. The…read moreservice, though not prompt, was good. We were able to ask a few questions about menu items. We had the matcha latte, and a menu special: solar eclipse which was chai with expresso macadamia nut milk and lavender syrup. Matcha was good flavor and quality. The drink special I pass, I gave it a fair try but it didn't taste good- there was a very acidic taste at the end. My first time in was after calling to see if they had gift cards, went without an answer . So I went there and nope. Waisted my time going there.

Friendly staff and fast service. You cannot reserve ahead but my boyfriend and I were seated immediately because they had a table which just opened for 2. Not sure of the wait time outside of this experience. The decor is very 80s rock coded with a few movie classics along the way. I loved some of the artwork and every detail that they put into designing this place. Coffee: brewed nice and strong Stars of the food show: Sweet Baby Jesus: A burst of sweet and savory crab chunks sprinkled with old bay in every bite. The tomatoes were a refreshing break as your taste buds were recuperating from all of the savory melted cheese, hollandaise sauce, crispy hash browns, and delicious eggs. It's large enough to share but toooo good to want to share lol I thoroughly enjoyed this. Captain Crunch French Toast: This was the BEST French toast I've ever had. It's layers of goodness starting with fresh fruits on the top (blackberries, strawberries, and green apples). Next, fresh whipped cream. Then you move on to the perfectly crusted French toast and the captain crunch pieces sprinkled throughout the plate. I didn't need any syrup at all because it was sweet enough. But this was an amazing dish! My boyfriend and I did share this because it was shareable and we both wanted to indulge in it while enjoying our individual meals. I'm immediately planning our next visit to this place-definitely worth it.

Customer Service-We had a large party, and the wait time was very lengthy. I was super nervous as…read moreit got closer to 3 pm that they wouldn't be able to seat us, but they did, and after. We all ordered, but the kitchen was closed. Food The star of the show is the Captain Crunch French Toast. This isn't just brunch, it's an experience. Golden Texas toast topped with a dose of nostalgia, the infamous Captain Crunch Cereal toasted to perfection, and topped with fresh fruit and cream. No wonder it's widely known as a signature menu item and a true Baltimore staple. I mean, it's called a must-order for locals and visitors for a reason. Trust me, when you order it, after your first bite, you'll understand why. Ambiance From the moment you walk in, the vibe is eclectic and lively, setting the tone for a brunch that's anything but basic. Parking Pure Hell! It's metered street parking. Good luck finding something close and not near the harbor.

We had such a great experience here--twice!…read more The staff was amazing and made us feel very welcomed and taken care of from the moment we walked in. Both our server and the host were super attentive and made sure we understood the menu and specials, which we really appreciated. The ambiance was beautiful--very clean, cozy, and just a really nice place to sit and enjoy your food. It does get busy, but they're very organized and communicate wait times right away, which makes a big difference. Now the food: Donuts: SO good--soft, flavorful, and definitely a must-try. Cheesecake: A little on the firmer side rather than super creamy, but still tasty. Margherita pizza: Great flavor (9/10). Personally I'd love a bit more cheese, and it's on the thinner side, but for the price and portion, it's still a solid choice. Pulled pork special: 10/10--absolutely delicious. Fried pickles: 9/10--slightly salty for some, but definitely worth trying. We dined in and also did takeout on two different days, and both experiences were consistently great. Definitely a spot we'd come back to!

Kneads Cafe -- My kids are giving it a solid 5 stars, and honestly... they're not wrong…read more The space is bright and welcoming, the food is delicious, and the counter service is quick and efficient. From an adult perspective, we walked into what looked like total chaos--a packed restaurant--and immediately thought we'd made a mistake. But then we realized you can order at the counter and head upstairs to grab a seat. Total win-win. We went with two cappuccinos, a lineup of sweet treats, and an incredible steak, egg, and cheese sandwich that absolutely delivered. Hands down one of our best Baltimore finds--we're already looking forward to coming back when football season rolls around.
