Another great experience at Black Market Bakers. This time I opted for the cinnamon roll and oatmeal crème cookie. Both were very good. Highly recommended!

Baked goods

Line out the door and absolutely worth the wait! The line takes you past the display of all of the baked good which makes ordering so hard because it looks incredible. The breakfast sandwich is perfect. With fried egg herb mayo on their sourdough. The coffee was okay but the highlight is definitely the food. I capped off the brunch with a treat of berry goat cheese danish. It was soooo good. Overall worth the wait and definitely come in.

Breakfast sandwich on GF focaccia
Diana P.

We ate here twice on our 3 day weekend in Annapolis. They have a separate kitchen for gluten free food prep and they label the GF items with bright orange stickers. I had the GF breakfast sandwich on the GF focaccia bread, which was very tasty. The focaccia was very thick, so when I ordered the GF Avocado Toast on visit 2, I asked them to make it thinner, which they did. The avocado toast was very good, I added scrambled eggs to it. We also tried the GF Fluffernutter cookie, GF sugar cookie, GF coconut cupcake and the GF cinnamon roll cake. Delicious

Cute spot with a gorgeous view! The playground was really amazing for our kids. The pastries were great! Very very busy so be prepared to wait a little bit

So glad we made this our first stop visiting Annapolis! Such a great bakery with a ton of options as well as breads and pre-made sandwiches. The menu rotates so the staff was very helpful explaining everything to help me narrow down my decision. I ordered the OG cinnamon bun and a pastry with lemon curd filling topped with raspberry (must try)! I also ordered a vanilla latte which wasn't the best (very watery) but definitely come if you want a delicious baked good. There's also tons of seating inside and outside as well as ample parking available in the lot out front.

Tofu breakfast sandwich and latte.

Tofu breakfast sandwich and latte. Just visiting Annapolis but if I could take this place back home with me, I'd be a happy person . Quick and good - exactly what I craved this morning- and healthy to boot.

Sandwiches
Janae H.

If you know, you know... but if you don't, let me introduce you to Black Market Bakers. When I say I love this place... I loooooooooooove this place. From the moment you walk in, the customer service is top tier. The staff is always warm, welcoming, and genuinely helpful. I've been twice now, and both visits were consistently amazing -- which is rare and appreciated. Now let's get into my order because I am absolutely a creature of habit. I always get the breakfast sandwich, but let me be clear: egg fried HARD. I learned the first time that runny eggs are not my ministry, so fried hard it is! And I swap the bread to brioche. BABY. Mouth watering as I type this. The brioche takes it to another level -- soft, buttery, and the perfect balance to the savory sandwich. To sip? A hot white chocolate oat milk latte. It has been hitting especially right with these cold Maryland days we've been having. Smooth, comforting, and made just right. Now the sweet treat is where I switch it up. * First visit: oatmeal pie -- good, but a little too sweet for my personal taste. (If they ever make straight-up homemade oatmeal cookies? I will gladly stand in line.) * Second visit: the market bun and a danish -- and listen... both were SO good. Fresh, flavorful, and not overwhelmingly sweet. The only thing to keep in mind is that the inside fills up quickly -- seating is limited. But once the weather warms up, they do have a few outdoor tables, which will make it even better. Overall? Consistency, quality, and customer service that keeps you coming back. Annapolis definitely has a gem on its hands

Omg ! This place is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. Super busy but display was still full! The employees were friendly, patient and understanding because when it was my turn I still did not know which bake good to choose! Family friendly, and a great spot to meet for an early coffee. I highly recommend!!

Avocado toast
Tiffany D.

This was a quaint little bakery located in the port area. There was a good amount of parking, but be sure to read the signs. The avocado toast could have used some additional flavors to make it more savory, so i would opt to try some of their breakfast sandwiches next time around. They have a limited menu in terms of breakfast items. But they have a nice selection of treats, including vegan items. It would be a lot easier if things were labeled, but staff did a wonderful job explaining everything. I would return for the pumpkin maple muffin I had for sure!

Catherine A.

Oh my gosh how is this place so overwhelmingly delicious? There are so many things to choose from and every one of them was better than the next. the avocado toast was great with an egg added to it but the honeybun stole the show for me. We also enjoyed the tiramisu pastry and the baklava pastry. They make great coffees too. Small seating area that consistently has a wait for a table and now I get it. Yum yum yum!

Black market bakers is the place to be for breakfast! Be sure to grab your spot in line early because the line will spill out the door especially on weekends! The original breakfast sandwich is delicious, the eggs are dippy making for a messy but tasty meal. The sourdough bread is excellent and it's so hard to choose from their variety of pastries! The chocolate croissant was flaky and sweet, and the fig pastry was definitely a crowd favorite. It even changed a couple of my friends opinions on figs! Everyone working here was patient and kind. They kept the coffee containers full and there's complimentary water. Bathrooms are clean and right across from the front door. There are about 3 tables inside (noise level is pretty high since it's a small eatery) and a couple tables outside. Many marina parking spaces and room by the front. Definitely come by black market bakers when you're in the area for a delicious breakfast!! (They also serve lunch).

Menu

First time at the highly recommended Black Market Bakers and it did not disappoint! It smelled amazing in there and was organized. When I arrived, it was a long line but it moved quickly. I got the breakfast sandwich with focaccia bread and that was good, huge portion. It was slightly salty but still had a fresh taste. The banana mascarpone muffin was my favorite and it almost tasted like a cupcake. Very good. I will be back to try more treats!

No way pastries on display, that look this amazing, should taste as amazing as they do. The breakfast sandwich is delicious. My personal go to is the Black Market Bun. Think croissant wrapped into the shape of a muffin and thoroughly dusted in sugar. The weekly specials never fail to disappoint either

The menu confirms that B&B takes vegans and vegetarians seriously. The amount of fresh vegetables…read moreand fruits included with items confirms that. I arrived around 1pm on a rainy August day, and on-street parking was readily available nearby. The atmosphere was maritime cafe. You order at a window near the front door and then pick a table or, if available, padded chair. With a beverage, it'd be possible to get a couple of hours of work done. I ordered the vegan crabcake. It came with a small, fresh side salad with homemade dressing. The sandwish was filling and tasty. The crabmeat substitute was made of jackfruit and included the appropriate spices and toppings. I'd definitely hang there next time I'm in Annapolis. I would plan to arrive in the morning to sample the intriguing breakfast items.

Their breakfast sandwiches are also delicious and made with really good-quality ingredients. We tried the egg, bacon, and avocado sandwich, and it was very tasty. They also have vegan and gluten-free, allergy-conscious cookies, which is a great option for those with dietary restrictions. In many of the sandwiches, you can substitute the regular cheese with vegan cheese, making it easy to customize your meal. The restaurant has both indoor and outdoor seating, with the outdoor area right by the water. The outdoor seating area is well maintained and clean, and the bathroom was also very clean. Overall, the food is tasty, there are plenty of options for different dietary needs, and the waterfront seating is a nice bonus. Highly recommend checking this place out!

Walking around downtown Annapolis, we overheard some people outside the restaurant raving about how…read moregood the food was, especially the crispy kale, so we decided to give it a try. We were immediately greeted and taken care of, which was a great start! The crispy kale was HANDS DOWN one of the best kale dishes I've ever had!!! It was so good that I'd honestly come back just for that alone. I also ordered the crab bucatini, which was delicious! The pasta was perfectly al dente, and I loved all the different textures and flavors in the dish. I'll admit, looking at the menu, I initially thought this might be one of those overly hippie places that tries a little too hard, with a limited selection that doesn't necessarily look all that appetizing on paper. But wow, was I wrong! Don't let the menu fool you. This place is absolutely worth trying, and the crispy kale alone is reason enough to stop by! They also make their own soda! My one gripe is the "labor of love" tax. I'm not the biggest fan of these extra fees, especially when you're already paying for your meal and tipping. That said, the food was genuinely delicious, and I'd still recommend giving this place a try! Plenty of seating inside, outside, and at the bar!

None of us had ever been there, so we were in the dark about the food and everything else. Our waiter was efficient and competent, but we all found him aloof. It would have been nice to have a smile and a willingness to describe the dishes. We ordered a variety of dishes, and we all agreed that the crispy kale was a big hit. I wish I had taken pictures of the food. It was all good, including the Bloody Mary and the cold brew. Deducted a star for the waiter's attitude, not having more specific egg dishes, avocado toast (I was so craving it), or espresso drinks. Overall, we loved it, and we all look forward to going back, especially knowing what to expect-and what not to.

This is a seat-yourself establishment, and I stopped by around 8 AM on a weekday. It was already…read morepretty busy, which is always a good sign! They have additional seating upstairs, but I grabbed a seat at the bar and was immediately taken care of. One thing I really appreciated was the Faces of Valor wall and how many of the menu items are named after local figures, politicians, firefighters, and other members of the community. Around 8:30 AM, they invite a volunteer to lead the Pledge of Allegiance, which I thought was a really nice touch and a reflection of their strong sense of patriotism. (9:30 during the weekend) I ordered the Annapolis Cheesesteak Omelette, and it was pretty good! The ambiance is very much an old-school diner, with pictures covering the walls and plenty of local history and personality throughout the space. It has that classic, community-centered feel that makes the experience more than just grabbing breakfast. Service was another highlight. Despite how busy it was, everyone was fast, attentive, and welcoming. You pay at the counter, which keeps things simple and efficient. My only complaint was the bar stool! I'm pretty short, so my feet were dangling the entire time, and there wasn't a footrest like you'd typically find on other bar stools. By the time I finished eating, my feet were pretty much numb LOL. Definitely something to keep in mind if you're vertically challenged like me! Overall, I had a great experience! Between the friendly service, classic diner atmosphere, and unique local touches, this is a great spot to stop by for breakfast in Annapolis.

My wife craved crabcakes and got the 1/2 pound crabcake, while I craved fried chicken so I got the chicken wing platter, which comes with 2 sides. I opted for an upgrade to the crab Mac n cheese, and a mashed potato and gravy. The crabcake was good, seasoned with old bay., although I found it a little dry I consider it still very good. My chicken wings were exactly what I wanted, the crispy flavorful coating was perfect, and the wings were juicy. The crab Mac n cheese was homemade with a good cheese pull, and full of flavor from the crab and old bay. The mashed potato was smooth, and the gravy was savory and delicious. Overall, it was a very good lunch that hit the spot. The price of the crab was a bit pricy but that is dependent on the price of fresh crab, and their crab was fresh. The chicken wings was to much for one person when you consider it comes with 2 sides, so needless to say we were very full and satisfied at the end of the meal. Service was great, and attentive. The atmosphere was typical diner style with eclectic things on the walls mostly news articles about the restaurant and the Man vs Food episode featuring the restaurant. This is a must try for anyone visiting or near Annapolis.
