Doppio Pasticceria serves what is, without question, the best pizza in Baltimore. After trying…read moreroughly 30 different pizzas across the city, this one stands alone. The sauce strikes a perfect balance of sweetness, acidity, and richness, while the crust is exactly what great pizza should be--light, beautifully blistered, and finished with an irresistible crisp that gives way to a flavorful finish. Every bite is thoughtfully executed, and nothing feels overdone or out of balance. It's the kind of pizza that reminds you how simple ingredients, when treated with care, can be exceptional. If you're searching for Baltimore's best pizza, stop looking. Doppio Pasticceria earns a perfect 10/10. PS: Doppio, please respond to my DM for the sauce recipe

Didn't love it, but I think it's just not for me…read more Came on a Sunday morning, as others have mentioned it's very small inside but it's nicely designed with beautiful tile. We got 2 pastries and 2 coffee drinks. I got a lemon spritz espresso soda thing which actually was delicious! My husband got plain iced coffee which was also good. What I didn't appreciate was my drink being served in a soggy, soaking wet/condensing cup. They use paper to go cups. They need to figure that out, it was pretty rough to hold - collapsing and soggy, not a great experience. Our pastries were just okay - got the fig/creme filled big puff and a spinach ricotta pastry. Both were fine, a bit dry, and I've had similar/better things from Tous Le Jous, cafe dear Leon, and even ovenbird. These seemed maybe not so fresh. They do charge a 15% gratuity for all orders so we paid about $4 extra for a soggy cup and only okay pastries. Ultimately we just didn't love the experience and the cost. I'd come back to try the pizza and sandwiches but I will have low expectations.

The owner chatted with us during our whole visit. The coffee was so fresh, and I absolutely loved the horchata coffee.

I understand the whole grunge, dark vibe, but every surface I sat at, touched, or could see had fingerprints and smudges on it, and it just didn't sit right with me.

Believe the rave reviews -- it really is as good as people say it is…read more I didn't go to a single other place twice during my short trip to Baltimore, but this one had to be my last stop before I left. That should tell you something! I also genuinely did not think their most popular item, the crab pastry, would live up to the hype... but holy crap, it really is that good. It's such a unique pastry and it's so filling too. I love their coffee, and I ended up ordering a bunch of pastries just to try them -- every single one was a hit. Not a miss in the bunch. It's also such a beautiful cafe, with lots of students and people working and chatting. Such a lovely place to sit for a while. Highly recommend!

Came here to get the famous crab dip bagel. Parking is tight and I had to park a few blocks over in…read morea side street. (FYI...watch the signs to avoid being towed). No issues. I went on a weekday and there was a short line so the wait was no more than 5-7 minutes. The ambiance was fast-paced and smelled of fresh baked pastries, which was right up my alley. There was plenty is seating in the back as well as outdoor. They have a menu for you to peruse before you order. They have assorted sweet and savory items along with typical bakery drinks (coffee, tea, etc.). The staff were very pleasant when I approached the counter for my order: a crab dip bagel, ham and cheese croissant, and a "crookie", which was a croissant with chocolate chips inside and topped with chocolate chip cookies. My items were packaged in no time and I was provided with reheating instructions for my items as well. First up, the crab bagel, a nice, fresh, pillow soft bagel topped with a mixture of fresh crab and sweet corn (not on my bingo card to be included in a traditional crab dip ). This was interesting...I did have to add additional Old Bay seasoning to this once I was home (I'm a Bmore gurl, what can I say?), which made it more tasty, in my option. Now, for me, would I go across town and potentially stand in a long line for this? No, I wouldn't. It was just okay for me. Next, the ham and cheese croissant. The croissant was flaky and airy with the perfect amount of chew and crisp. I did reheat it according to the instructions and it was good. The ham's saltiness combined with the cheese and croissant made for a decent item. Finally, the "crookie", which I also heated up. Now THIS???? I was not expecting that burst of sweet, delectable flavor in my mouth. This was my afterthought purchase and proved to be THE star of my whole Cafe Dear Leon experience. The croissant, once again, flaky, chewy, airy with the surprise of chocolate chips inserted with those two chocolate chip cookies on top....NOW, would I go across town and potentially stand in line for THIS? YES, yes I would!! All in all La Maison Cafe Dear Leon won me over with the ham and cheese croissant and definitely the "crookie"! I will be making my way across town again soon.

That sounds like in the mean time you should honor the price on your menu. I don't think I would come back after this because while it wasn't her fault, she was not pleasant about it at all

It's a…read moreconvenient spot if you're looking for a quick coffee on the go, and the location makes it an easy stop before traveling. The coffee was good, but it felt more like a chain coffee shop than a specialty café. The syrups appeared to be standard rather than house-made, so it didn't have the craft coffee experience I was hoping for. During my visit, my iced latte had quite a bit of ice, and when the lid was put on, some of the espresso spilled over the sides of the cup. The cup was quickly wiped off and handed to me, which was a little disappointing. Overall, it's a convenient option if you're nearby and need a quick coffee, but I'd probably explore other local coffee shops first if I had the time.

Also, they gave me two slices of pickles, the ends of it, was I really supposed to eat that? I feel like it was supposed to be thrown away and they just added it to my plate.
