House made syrups & delicious lattes! Breakfast sandwich was good as well. Loved the vibes of this place!
I-N-T-E-N-T-I-O-N-A-L!! Everything in here felt intentional. The atmosphere was so welcoming, cozy with enough brightness to add to your day and plants and color that draw you in. Ordering was pretty simple and drinks were ready soon after. The food came later but even the color and pattern of the plate felt... intentional. We tried out the Shakè toast which was a seared salmon on kale on sourdough- good serving of salmon and tasty. Also had the bacon egg and cheese that had a nice kick with the jam- classic, crispy, juicy and enough bacon in each bite. Will definitely be back!!
Always a good time stopping in here. I got the veggie sandwich again and it does not disappoint. It's packed with flavors and all of the vegetables are cooked to perfection. This is also a great place to work if you want to spend a longer time reading or on your laptop. Hands down my favorite cafe in Baltimore.
I've never met a coffee shop I didn't like and Good Neighbor was no different!!! Offering coffee, food, and unique and healthy food finds, there's truly something for everyone. My latte was smooth and had the perfect balance of milk, vanilla and sweetness flavor. The shop is very aesthetically pleasing and the food smelled absolutely divine. I can't wait to try something from the menu soon. Parking can be tricky, but I was able to get a spot in a 10 minute loading zone right down the street. I also noticed they have two fifteen-minute spots you can pull into right next to the shop. The outdoor seating looked so cute and would be perfect for a nice, warm sunny day. Service was good and my coffee only took a couple minutes to make. It was an expensive latte but it was delicious and worth every sip! Can't wait to become a regular here.
A true Baltimore Gem! My husband and I love it here. Great matcha lattes! Great Cappuccino! The food options make it a great place for a breakfast, brunch or lunch. They also have experiences you can book, check out their website for those. Quick and welcoming service. You order at the counter then find an open table to eat. Perfect for a date, hangout, and some people study/work.
Excellent coffee and excellent food, you can truly taste the quality in both. The atmosphere is beautiful, with plenty of space to sit, work, or catch up with a friend. The outdoor garden patio is especially charming and a lovely spot to relax. Wouldn't recommend the matcha however it was very mild and tasted like mostly milk. I stayed in the guesthouse for the weekend and visited the café several times during my stay. Unfortunately, I didn't feel particularly welcomed during any of my visits. Each time, a different cashier seemed disengaged and didn't offer a greeting, only just a blank stare until I placed my order. It stood out even more as I watched how warmly they interacted with regulars. Otherwise still a great place to visit. Hopefully my next visit will feel more warm.
good neighbor is a cute little modern coffee shop that tries to go for a feel of 'stepping into a loved one's home' - I tried the Strawberry Fields, which was a matcha with strawberry syrup - this was actually pretty tasty, but I wished it came out piping hot, as requested - it was more lukewarm, which was pretty disappointing. I like the cup that they use, in which they fill it up to the brim. Seating is limited, and if you're unable to get one of those armchairs, the wooden benches and the small tables are a bit uncomfortable. Street parking is available. +lukewarm drinks +limited seating +street parking available
Oh wow, good neighbor was like a warm hug on this cold, rainy December day! I cannot believe I have never been here before. The greenery and the decor was so comforting. It was definitely busy on a Tuesday afternoon but we snagged a corner bench by the window and thanked the coffeeshop gods!!! I loved the Asian and Desi inspired flavors. The rose and cardamom latte was excellent. The chai latte was also divine! The chili paneer sandwich was the perfect spice and comfort food for a rainy day. The veggie sando was great too! It's also so rare to find veggie onigiri - loved the mushroom one!! Overall, one of my new fave spots in Bmore!!!!
Unique, creative, and vibrant cafe with a great outdoor atmosphere and drinks! The overall vibes and ambience were amazing- the outdoor seating area is a must. It's such a quaint, peaceful escape. They have plenty of drink options. My friend got a chai latte while I got their Strawberry Fields Matcha. The Matcha was incredible and delicious; my friend was happy with their chai. We'd come again for the vibes and drinks, but not the food. The food took a long time to come. We were both disappointed with the food- I got the Chili Paneer sandwich which honestly tasted like cheesy burrata garlic bread. Paneer shouldn't be like burrata! I tasted no spices and it was very bland- the "green chutney" wasn't chutney at all and it was not good or flavorful. I really expected an Indian twist, which it wasn't. My friend didn't like the beet salad since it was all just raw veggies with no texture, cooked veggies, or flavor added. While our food expectations weren't met, this still is a must check out place to grab drinks and enjoy the scenery.
omg HOW have I never been here before?? Good Neighbor is located in Hampden with free street parking nearby that can be hit or miss, especially on weekends, so be prepared to walk over a couple of blocks. GN has indoor and outdoor seating and is a gorgeously decorated coffee shop / cafe / eatery. They sell books, records, cookware, and other miscellaneous trinkets in their shop as well. They have two restrooms which are stocked with free pads and tampons which I think is so kind of the business to offer! For alternative milks; they only have coconut and oat. I have to note that they have excellent customer service. I came in on around lunchtime on a Tuesday with a friend and they were already moderately popular. They answered some questions I had about their food and when they accidentally got my drink order wrong, they spotted the error before me and not only made me the drink I ordered, but also offered me the incorrect drink to keep as well. Hojicha latte with whole milk (iced) 4/5, ok so the issue here is while this was a good nicely roasted tasting hojicha, I had never tried hojicha iced before so while I do definitely recommend this, I say order this hot Iced Latte 3/5, I did not order this but it was given to me to keep as it was accidentally made. I'm not a coffee drinker but this tasted like an average iced coffee to me, if that's your thing, you can't go wrong with this Matcha latte with whole milk (iced) 4.5/5, I got this unsweetened as I wanted to try how bitter their matcha would be but this was a very pleasant surprise! I quite enjoyed this drink and the ratio of matcha:milk present Espresso Soda 3/5, my friend got this and noted that she didn't like the citrus lavender flavoring from soda and would have preferred a different blend with the espresso Spicy Salmon Onigiri 5/5, this onigiri came PACKED w/ fish and the spicy mayo was beautiful done Chili Paneer 5/5, what a sandwich! This was very filling and the chili was not overdone at all and paired well with the burrata that was melted in a way that allowed the cheese to stretch out nicely as you bite in
Ambiance is amazing, beautiful collection of art work, books, decor and furniture. The outdoor space was beautiful, perfect for reading or studying. We got the spicy mayo salmon ongiri and the miso mushroom ongirir, both were delicious! I need to go back to try more food. We also got ice matcha lattes, one with vanilla and one without. With vanilla was better than without. The one without vanilla was not sweet at all. Both a little milky, not very green for being ceremonial grade though.
pros: ambience is super nice to study and talk, and the onigiri was so good. cons: theres not a ton of parking space and my matcha latte tasted pretty watered down. overall a cute spot to sit and work
Fantastic spot for breakfast or coffee. Lots of unique coffee/espresso beverages, clearly made with care. Latte was perfectly creamy, with just the right amount of sweetness. Both sandwiches we ordered (bacon, egg, and cheese, and chili paneer) were bursting with flavor. The space is very aesthetic (don't forget to grab some photos for Yelp or Instagram ) and they have lots of cute items for sale too. Staff are so kind and helpful; they answered a ton of my questions about the menu.

Good Neighbor is an absolute VIBE! If you're looking for a trendy, laid-back spot to kick back, enjoy some coffee or wine, and just escape for a little while, this is definitely the place. We ordered the croissant, cinnamon brioche toast, a bowl of fruit, an iced chai latte, and a hot chocolate. The cinnamon brioche toast was easily a standout, it had the perfect combination of cinnamon and butter in every bite and tasted phenomenal. The iced chai latte was a little watered down for my preference, but it was still enjoyable. The atmosphere is really what makes Good Neighbor special. The space has such a cool, relaxed energy that makes you want to hang out and stay awhile. Parking can be a little tricky, so I'd recommend planning ahead, but overall, this was such a great experience. Great food, great atmosphere, and an overall amazing vibe. I'll definitely be back! read more

Home of one of my absolute favorite breakfast sandwiches in town, the egg & cheese. They use high-quality sourdough, and the sauce on the sandwich makes it a unique offering. Recommend getting either their creative, seasonal latte (my favorite so far was the carrot spice) or a drip coffee. If you get drip, then you get one free refill, which is nice. Had the PB&J toast once (pictured here), which was tasty, though I prefer the egg & cheese. Staff are friendly and their musical selections are always top notch. read more
Pros: chic, hipster decor and amazing coffee Cons: music can be very loud and seats are hard/uncomfortable I really love good neighbor and I have been here more than 5 times. It's a semi-regular study spot for me! The decor is very chic and has a home-y vibe. Modern and inviting. Their coffee is AMAZING. Genuinely some of the best I've had in the city. I'm not a coffee purist, so I usually order lattes or specialty drinks. Their seasonal drinks are also cool; in the summer they often have refreshing matcha drinks and herbal/floral blends. The food is good (but a bit pricey). I love the curry chicken sando! Very flavorful and healthy. Some of the options are definitely overpriced; I got a harvest bowl once which was just yogurt, fruit, and oats. The staff are very personable and fun! Street parking nearby is easy too. My biggest con is that the music can be very loud. It varies based on the day, but sometimes they're *blasting* hip-hop and rap (which are genres I enjoy!! But not at full volume in a coffee shop!). The seats are also pretty uncomfortable. I believe there is only one big table that has seats with cushion. All the other chairs are hard wood. I'm normally ok with this set-up at coffee shops, but for some reason good neighbor chairs are extra uncomfortable. Overall, I do really like this place! Especially for shorter, casual meet-ups with friends. I would not make this your regular study spot unless you plan on bringing a very good noise-cancelling headphone or a seat cushion! read more
This is a nice, small coffee shop located in the Hampden area. I got a yummy ice coffee that was quickly made, the staff were kind and welcoming. The service was smooth, but the seating was limited, or not very supportive in style of seating. Nonetheless, it seems like a nice spot to do a coffee chat, work remotely, or enjoy artisan coffee. read more

I like my coffee without a side of gentrification, thanks. I got a cardamom rose latte, which was absolutely delicious. I'm a fan of a pretentious coffee shop, but this was a bit too pretentious even for me. Even so, it would be 5 stars if it were not obviously gentrifying a neighborhood. Opening a shop that charges $7 for a coffee next popping up in the middle of delapitated, obviously low-income neighborhoods is going to result in poorer people forced out of their homes. read more

What's not to love about a wholesome breakfast at Good Neighbor's cafe? The Oat Milk Matcha Latte is pretty much my go-to when it comes to beverages at this cozy spot. This particular morning, I decided to venture into the mini kitchen to try out a breakfast sandwich. The eggs were splendidly scrambled, bacon and jam were perfectly married, and the cheese was the glue holding this well-crafted sandwich together, literally! I loved every bite from start to finish. Ever had a moment where you wanted to chronolize every ''mmm" and "yum" on video? This sandwich will make you give it a try ;). Enjoy one morning/afternoon at this Hampden gem and you'll definitely be a repeat indulgee. Thank you GN! read more
Good neighbor was so welcoming and full of good vibes & good people! The service was freakin awesome and the coffee/lattes were absolutely delicious! We got a cozy lil spot in the back on the sofa of which was so comfortable! The vibe was awesome and I felt so comfortable! Can't wait to go back!!! read more

Best strawberry matcha and possibly the best matcha I've had in Baltimore in a while! The outdoor garden area is peaceful and beautiful with lots of seating and green open space (even with some outdoor outlets for charging). The interior was also nicely decorated with plenty of seating. The staff were friendly and the drinks came out pretty quickly. Definitely recommend this place for studying/working, meeting with friends, and relaxing! read more
This is my FAVORITE coffee shop!! I'm obsessed with the Scandinavian aesthetic with light wood and clean design with plants scattered about. Seating seems to fill up fast, so it's kind of a hit-or-miss on whether you'll get a spot. This is my go-to place now but I don't count on being able to stay due to the capacity. They've got fantastic latte choices if you're looking for something unique that's not at another shop. My friend got a $12 drip coffee that he was impressed by - and I'll agree that it was smooth. read more

Love the space and overall vibe. Cool coffee shop with home goods made by local artists, gourmet pantry items, and other gifts such as Le Labo candles and toiletries. The pour over came about ten minutes after ordering - it was great and served nice and hot. Looking forward to trying some menu items next time and hopefully having some more time to enjoy the space! read more

The aesthetic of this shop is perfect. We dropped by for breakfast and we able to get a seat outside on the back deck, which was perfectly in the shade. We placed our orders, which were brought out to us with no problem. I was nervous about the mustard on the egg and cheese breakfast sandwich, but it was actually a pleasant surprise. The sandwich came out heart-shaped too-- and it just happened to be our anniversary! After we ate, we got a plant from the greenhouse, making it a one stop shop. I will be back in the future. read more

The cutest and coziest coffee shop I have been to in a while! I was looking for a spot to hang out before a 9am meeting and I'm so glad I stumbled upon good neighbor. There is only street parking, which isn't surprising given the location on Falls Rd. Once inside, the vibe is warm and welcoming. There was a pretty sizable menu that I didn't spend that much time reading through. The kitchen opens at 8am so if you're looking to grab a bite, make sure to not arrive too early (they open at 7am) or have some patience. I loved the different seating options and the books for sale. Both restrooms are also clean and accessible so thumbs up for that. The free WiFi was also very strong. I'm furious about how busy and/or loud things get later in the day but I don't hesitate to come back and enjoy the vibes. See you soon, good neighbor. read more

Sometimes, it's hard for a cafe to be design-forward and cozy. It's often one or the other. Good Neighbor nails both. Located in Hampden, Good Neighbor is a quaint cafe that's beautiful to walk into. The bar is in the center with many tables and cozy corners to work or read. They have a full coffee, tea, and food menu. My vanilla latte was one of the most creamy and flavorful ones I've had in Baltimore. They sell local coffee beans, cards, magazines, dish ware, and so much more. read more

My daughter was raving about this coffee shop and the Swedish fish that are so good. Ok, she was not playing about those Swedish fish. They are a candy fish from Sweden and are sour raspberry. Very pricey but fresh and worth it. My chai latte was delicious which was customized with oat milk. The Shakè toast was good. I read the menu quickly and was expecting smoked salmon but it's seared salmon and the brioche held the nice sized pieces of salmon well. I can't tell you what is on the sauce used on the toast but it paired well with everything. The place was crowded for a Sunday afternoon so there was a bit of a wait. No complaints on service which was friendly and the drinks took no time. Food orders took about ten minutes. I love the ambience of the cafe. The place is my kind of chic with books and plants placed throughout the store. There is a wall of merchandise that has odds and ends of different things. It's a very chill spot and it will be visited again. read more
