My office is downtown Baltimore so I decided to try Cafe 1908 after seeing great reviews. The order was delivered. When I opened my order, I was shocked at how small the sandwich was. My zoom on the picture makes it look at little better. The flavor was nice and I did enjoy the fries. In my opinion, the meal wasn't worth $14 plus when taking into consideration the size of the entree. read more

I ordered the catfish sandwich accompanied with fries via the Yelp app. My takeout order was ready upon arrival. The sandwich was delicious. Fries not hot as I would like but good nonetheless. read more

Cafe 1908 - Fried Catfish Sandwich with fries - Seafood Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

Food is usually great, quick and easy service. the inside is small but nice. typically a staple in my spots around Preston, and I typically order items with the jerk chicken, but this time I went for the Bangin Azz Burrito. EVERY shrimp was served with the vein still in. This is the second time I've received shrimp that was not deveined and unfortunately it is beginning to ruin the restaurants reputation for me. I don't want to give up on the restaurant, so maybe staying away from items with the fried shrimp is the best decision. Unless you don't mind eating poop... read more

i very begrudgingly write this newest review but something has changed with 1908! I have been very disappointed on my last 3 visits to 1908. There have been a different cook every single time which absolutely lends to my disappointment. When we first started coming to 1908 there was a tall brown skinned guy cooking. He did that patty melt pure justice. Not one other cook gets it like he did it. On my last three visits, i had the hispanic guy, then there was a female and lastly a younger black guy and all were subpar in my opinion. They are literally layering steak pieces, peppers and onion and tomatoes almost like a deli sandwich. Certainly NOT a patty melt where the meat and cheese are closer and peppers and onions dispersed through out. It's quite weird now. My fries were flavorless, almost like they halved the seasoning or something. My chef style wings skin was super soft, not as crispy as i'd like. i take responsibility for that because i did not ask for them to be fried hard. In any event, for the price, $25 for a sandwich and wings, I need to be gnawing my own fingers off cause the food is that good. Not the case anymore. read more

First time here ! Customer Service was awesome ! I tried the Jerk Chicken wrap, Seafood Salad & Fries, that I heard was good from yelp reviews .... Everything was good ! However , I could've used a sauce with the Jerk Chicken wrap . Like a Ranch or something to tone it down & give it a dip. ! I was a little disappointed that the seafood salad had Imitation crab meat I notice a few spots use it and I do not know why ! This the city known for anything crabs Why use imitation? Nevertheless , they made my first time there awesome & would come back for more ! read more

I ordered from this place through Door Dash, so I can't give much a review on the inside of the place. However, the garlic Parmesan wings were so delicious and well seasoned. Our fries were a little soggy by time we got them. I like them but I'm sure they would have tasted better had they not been soggy. The bang bang shrimp taco was way too spicy. I literally had to peel the batter off and eat the shrimp without it. I would def order from here again but for the wings specifically. read more

I always plan to finally try this place whenever I go to OK Natural, but I finally did it a couple days ago. I called my order in and the lady who took my order was very nice and spoke clearly. I was told 20 minutes and when I walked in the door, everything was boxed up ready to go. I ordered the jerk chicken wrap and the seafood salad that several people told me I had to try! Both were very good and also the garlic fries that come with the wrap were delicious. I'll definitely be back to try some other things on the menu. read more

The picture on the right was what was advertised on Instagram. The picture on the left is what I actually received. Noticed there's no eggs on my salad like advertised and the crab meat is not of the same caliber as the picture in the picture on Instagram it looks like the crab meat was lump which is what I thought I was getting, but that was not the case. I frequent this restaurant all the time they have excellent food excellent service, but today was not a good day. read more

I ordered the parmesan garlic wings. Let me start by saying I ordered through Yelp for pickup. I was five minutes late picking up my food after waiting 30 minutes and receiving a notification stating that it was ready. When I got there it was not ready and the order had never been placed. So I had to wait an additional 25 minutes. My wings were dry and lacked flavor or seasoning. Also no-one wore a mask that worked there. The guy at the counter was mask-less in Baltimore City as well as the cook. But the guy at the counter very nice, understanding and apologized. I dont think I will be ordered food from here anymore. read more

Stopped by Baltimore on Saturday 9-11-21and wanted to give this place a chance. Smaller than I expected. Friendly staff. I made the mistaking in asking them if the seafood salad was any good. Of course they told me as they provided a sample. Talk about DELICIOUS!!! Ended up buying 4 containers. Pleased to find out they would ship me more if needed as I live in DC. If I'm in the area or get the itch again I'll be ordering for SURE!!! read more

Ya'll. Seriously. Just stop. If you're in the downtown area of Baltimore and you want something that is fresh, delicious and fast-Café 1908 is IT. Listen, the menu is dope, they make their own juices and desserts fresh daily! The service is courteous and fast! The ambiance it gives is like a cozy dive. Enough tables to sit and eat, but really just to wait for your food comfortably. They have an open kitchen you can see your food being prepared. This is my second time back in a week. I can't wait to try the rest of the menu. read more

The fries were SOOOOO good. Great service (she did forget our wings tho which was a bummer). Great lemonade. Seafood salad was good but the shrimp were over cooked. The onion straws on the salmon and shrimp burger should be it's own side. Fish and shrimp melt was good but a little burnt. GET THE FRIES. read more

So i finally made my way to Cafe 1908 after wanting to get here forever. I must say the choice was the right one. I ordered the jerk cheesesteak wrap & fries when I say it was delicious. Little disappointed it wasn't much meat as I prefer but the fries more than made up for that issue. Plus I got the wife some of their chef style wings & those things almost made me turn back around to get another order. Everything topped out at just over $30 which is a deal as good as that food was. Only downside is the parking is pretty hit & miss in that area cause I found myself having to circle the block three times before finding parking. And that was just for me to run in & pick up my to go order. Far as the setup goes it gives you a nice laid back carry out feel. Much better appearance then most of the places you'll find in that area so that's a bonus. I'll keep y'all update with the different menu options I try cause 1908 has definitely not seen the last of me read more

I had high expectations for the salmon Caesar salad. However, I was disappointed , the flavor of the salmon itself was lacking and had no life. I'm pretty sure they didn't give us Caesar dressing. Not quite sure what it was, but it tasted like a vinegar base. It was terrible and didn't pair well with the salad. The fries arrived cold unfortunately. But I could tell they would've been good if hot. I'm not sure about ambiance,,we ordered for a group lunch. However I did hear the 1908 steak was delicious! If we return, I' may try it next time. read more

Saw cafe 1908 on Instagram and had to try it out. Unassuming hole in the wall type of place, ideal for takeout as there is minimal seating inside. Service was friendly, wait time was only 10-15 minutes for a big order. Food was delicious! Items tried: Cajun seafood quesadilla, bang bang shrimp tacos, bang bang shrimp wrap, jerk cheesesteak wrap. All items were unique, tasty, and packed with flavor. The jerk seasoning in particular was amazing. Generous portions for the price, could get 2 meals out of most items. I'll definitely go back next time I'm in Baltimore read more

I love the jerk chicken wrap and garlic fries served with a side of bang bang sauce. I've ordered here twice in the last couple of weeks. Service is a bit slow but likely because the food is so great they are backed up with orders. read more

~ Not bad Cafe 1908. I had an hour to waste & realized that I was literally across the street from this place. Soooo, the monster went in for a jerk chicken wrap, garlic & herb fries & sweet lemon pepper wings. To be fair, I'm gonna have to visit this place again soon. I think the reason why I gave them 3 stars was because I wasn't descriptive enough about my order. I think Baltimore people are so used to eating wings "fried hard" that it's the normal way most restaurants cook them. My wings came out so hard that I couldn't really eat them. Didn't know they were gonna put honey on my wings either. If so, I would have said "no" to the honey. Horrible combo for me. Eat two & call it quits. Couldn't even grasp the taste of the wings. The jerk chicken wrap was on point though. I loved it. Next time I'll ask them to add more sauce because It was too dry for me. Not a big issue tho. That was on me like I mentioned. Now, those garlic & herb fries ....! Pure beauty! Dip those in that bang bang sauce & you're in heaven. Busy street, but there's parking on both sides. If those spots are full, you can just go hard & park in the alley ( if you're just picking up). I spent a good ol $37.00. Wasn't bad. I'll be back soon for another round. Hope you enjoy. ~ #TeamDiesel4Evaaaa read more

Oh, they snapped on the fries!!! It couldn't get any better. The fries are fried and seasoned to perfection, so you won't need any ketchup. Now, this jerk chicken wrap is out of this world amazing. Oh, and let me not leave out this strawberry lemonade DYNOMITE!! They have a new repeat customer for sure. read more

Eating here is always a pleasure.. Even when I order through DoorDash my food arrives hot & fresh.. If you haven't tried them yet please do so soon.. The chopped fish wrap & chopped Turkey burger wrap are delicious.. I've tried several items on the menu & haven't been disappointed yet read more

Chopped turkey burger is absolutely amazing. Flavor is so well balanced. Not too oily. The wrap miraculously doesn't fall apart when you eat it. Just enough sauce to substance ratio that it's never dripping. Somehow it's super juicy but never saturates the tortilla. Garlic herb fries are awesome. I mean... need I say more? read more

Cafe 1908 has the best fries I have ever tried in Baltimore. I swear. Quick and smooth service and wonderful food!!

Caribbean food is good, but not great and some of these establishments they tend to be a bit over-season tends be a bit salty and garlicky for me overall good food. read more

Excellent cuisine, ambience, and service I really liked the 1908 Cheese Steak, which turned out outstanding.

Turkey burger wrap and strawberry lemonade hits every time. Great flavor, seasoning is on point. Fries are fried to perfection

I've only been here once but I'll be back. I got the Chopped Fish sandwich and it was very good. The fries are okay but hot and crispy. I like the menu options and can't wait to go back. read more

Food is delicious. A little pricey but they're still a new small business. It's definitely worth it

I found cafe 1908 by following charm city foodie page on IG. I would give an overall rating a 8/10. Here me out! The fries were bomb alone, no hot sauce or ketchup needed. The chef style wings had a nice spicy kick but I expected a little more flavor. The jerk tacos were excellent! The right amount of spice and flavor with the cole slaw /cabbage flare was perfect. Finally the 1907 cheese steak wrap was everything. The wrap was buttery and crispy. The beef was chopped to perfection and very tasty. No sogg included and the cheese was nice and melted . For your convenience, download the cafe 1908 app for quick pick up orders. Very user friendly and super easy to navigate through. Kudos to the chef and bomb staff!! read more

Wish they would tell you a description of what is in each thing on door dash - I bought fries because it didn't say that wrap came with fries and I ended up with double orders of fries. Super annoying- it'll be awhile before I order from them again on this basis alone read more

Great food with good service. Their chopped fish wrap with the herb fries is my fav. Very flavorful and reasonably priced. Their chopped turkey wrap is decent also. Full of flavor and not dry at all. The seafood salad is very good. Jumbo shrimp throughout. Everything is always well seasoned, fresh and hot. 5 stars from me. read more

Finally got to try this restaurant today. Ordered on DoorDash, the food got here quick. You could tell it was made fresh with quality ingredients. Let me tell you, delicious is an understatement!

Definitely one of my new favorite places!!! read more

I was excited about trying this Cafe after the reading the wonderful reviews. I got a Cajun bowl and was overall disappointed. To be clear, it wasn't bad! It came with salmon and shrimp over rice, well seasoned. However, the salmon and shrimp were both over cooked, the sauce wasn't that tasty, and the food was extremely expensive! Ran me ~$30!! It's not bad food, but definitely not worth the price. Otherwise, It's in an interesting location that doesn't have great parking, but very walkable. The people inside were normal to interact with. It was very easy for me to call in my order which was ready in a timely manner and the food was still warm. read more
