    Maple latte
    Kenzey M.

    Maple latte and vanilla latte. Excellent! Nice service. Cute cafe. They have food, wine, beer and coffee. Nice quiet vibe but also very busy. They do a good job of getting orders out very timely. Would come here again.

    Vanilla Oat Milk Latte!
    Tava B.

    Ventured over here after an afternoon of self-care with my love. Was greeted and welcomed by the owner who introduced himself and made some yummy suggestions that we were both happy with. Small vanilla oat milk latte for me with a peach almond scone and an iced red eye for my boo thang with a slice of coffee cake. My scone was delicious! The almond and peach scone was giving a peach cobbler vibes and we really enjoyed this. It wasn't too sweet. The coffee cake was delicious also. It was moist and buttery. We will be back. We opted to sit outside and enjoy this beautiful afternoon weather we have today and on Wednesdays they offer FREE wine tastings! Now thats right up my alley. The owner shared that once a month they may have a chef come in who will curate a tasting menu/wine pairings and I cannot wait to learn more about these events! Check this place out! If you're a coffee/tea lover, or even enjoys a glass wine...I'm sure you'll find something you like here. Happy Yelping!

    This peppermint bark latte is so delectable . The breakfast sandwich is life changing. Come here to enjoy!

    I stopped by Curate last week in the last hour before they closed, since I had some work I wanted to get done before I drove back to Baltimore. Curate is open until 6:00 Monday through Saturday and until 5:00 on Sundays, which is great for those of that do like late afternoon or early evening coffees! But Curate isn't just a coffee shop, either. Curate is a cafe and bakery but also a wine and bottle shop. It's not large, but it's not the tiniest, either! Definitely great seating for studying or working. When I arrived around 5:00 on a weekday, almost every table was still taken up by someone enjoying a coffee or pastry and getting some work or studying done! Good seating, good lighting, lots of outlets for charging. I had a cappuccino (very good) and a scone (also very good), but they offer the full range of things you would expect from a coffee shop and bakery. Overall, a place I'm sure I'll return to get a coffee sometime soon!

    I see the appeal when you enter into this cozy, clean, small place. It's loud but not too loud, locals love this place. The coffee selection is minimal but the options are good and the incidents that go in the coffee and the pastries are mostly homemade. Overall the service was friendly, and helpful, that is much appreciated. We ordered a varsity of pastries and weren't I. Love with any but the sea salt brownie. The scone was okay everything else was...not that grata honestly. I think I would go back during the am hours to try the pastries fresh. As of today I wasn't impressed. The good about this is that the prices were right so not overpriced. They deserve another opportunity but I'll go somewhere else first before I'm back.

    Caprese scone

    Cute café in Annapolis. I got the caprese scone which lived up to its name and was quite delicious! They also have several great tea, coffee (Ceremony!), and wine options available.

    Matcha Latte
    Young K.

    There is a parking garage a block away from the cafe. The place is petite and cute, and the matcha latte was very good. I'm giving this place a lower rate because of the service. The barista was kind of rude and was also rude to the co-worker as well. It wasn't the most lovely vibe.

    Best gluten free vegan muffin (pina colada's)
    Marilou Y.

    What a charming little gem for a weekend coffee adventure--and surprisingly affordable too! We got two specialty coffees and two pastries for under $20. Total win. I've been trying to eat more gluten-free for health reasons, but I usually don't enjoy the texture or taste. That said, their gluten-free, vegan piña colada muffin blew me away--so fluffy and packed with pineapple flavor! The staff was incredibly friendly, the space was clean and cozy, and it's just a short drive from the heart of Annapolis. After our visit, we strolled around downtown and made a full morning of it. Totally worth the 30-minute drive--I'll be back for sure!

    Almond Joy Latte
    Smitha M.

    This was a nice coffee shop located in Annapolis. This is a great spot to have a cup of coffee to catch up with a friend or to get some remote work done. The latte was excellent. Service was OK, it was not clear where the coffee would be available for pickup and the day I visited it was not very busy, so it felt awkward to not have have a clear interaction with the barista that the coffee was ready. I also did not like the presence of many fruit flies over the pastries and bread, it was a turn off from wanting to purchase food. Street parking and parking garage available close by the coffee shop. The restroom was clean and organized.

    Great pastry selection! Friendly staff! Coffee ok - love the outdoor patio seating - might need to go back for more

    Quiche
    Grace R.

    A nice little cafe within walking distance from our hotel. What I loved about this cafe is that most of their baked goods came with sweet and savory options - like their cinnamon roll had a sweet onion roll. And their quiche was so good - so creamy and fluffy. I'm pretty sure they added some kind of chevere or goat cheese bc it had a slight tang. But one of the fluffiest quiches I've ever had. Service was prompt, but they don't call out your name when your order is ready, which I found peculiar. Definitely worth writing home about!

    This is a cute place on West Street, kind of in the Arts District. I met a friend there for coffee. There is metered street parking. The seating area was full & several people were working on laptops or chatting in pairs. People were friendly. The bakery items looked very tempting. They also had wine bottles displayed, so I guess it doubles as a wine bar later on. I will need to return to explore all the offerings

Unfortunately, my most recent visit was a pretty big disappointment. From what I understand, they recently let go of their head chef and are currently running things with sous chefs, and based on this experience... it shows. On Saturday, I ordered the oyster BLT. I was told ahead of time it came with four oysters, which is fine -- if those oysters actually feel like the main event. On a sourdough sandwich, you expect something substantial -- big, meaty oysters that can hold their own. Instead, what showed up were four tiny oysters that were basically lost in the sandwich. I'm not exaggerating when I say you had to go searching for them. And for $28? That's where it really lost me. I have no problem paying Annapolis prices when the food backs it up, but this felt completely out of sync. The portion, the quality, the overall execution -- none of it justified the price. It honestly felt like something that should have been half the cost... at best. Beyond that, the sandwich just felt underwhelming overall. Nothing about it stood out, nothing felt intentional, and it definitely didn't live up to what this place used to deliver. It's frustrating because this used to be a spot I'd recommend without hesitation. Right now, though, it feels like they're charging premium prices while the kitchen is still trying to figure itself out. I really hope they get things back on track, because Annapolis needs places like this to be good. But as it stands, I'd think twice before ordering anything from their specials.

An orange moscato and a black moscato. All equally delish! For an appetizer tonight we shared sweet and crunchy shrimp lettuce wraps. Very good and full of flavor. For my entree I get what I always get because it's amazing and delish! Surf and turf; pretzel crusted pork chop and ahi tuna. Sub Mary's potatoes for my girl Betty's potatoes because Betty is cheesy!! Pro-tip; always go with Betty! My fiancé got the short rib risotto which he enjoyed. For dessert they were out of the mocha tiramisu that we wanted to try. Our waitress brought out crème brûlée for me for my birthday which was very nice!

And even for the pasta pictures viewed on the Yelp app, the pastas do not appear appealing. Aside from that, the appetizers are not good either. Our server brought us some calamari that was nothing but bread. Filling. Super disappointing; so disappointing that we left this restaurant and went to Juelps for better food. I think after 3+ visits and only having 1-successful trip, I don't think I'll return here anymore - not including the wine-tasting and membership.
