    I went back to Zeke's today to co-work with a colleague while I'm in town and I'm really glad that I did. I arrived around 1pm and it was pretty busy, but my colleague had gotten there earlier and got us a table in the back room. I immediately ordered lunch upon getting settled. Squirrely was super nice & helped me decide on the Reuben with fries, and boy oh boy, I'm glad they did. I ate every single fry within minutes of receiving them, they didn't even need a dipping sauce. The Reuben was amazing, the corned beef was so tender. Their house made sauerkraut rye was perfect. Later, I ordered a Pumpkin Spice Latte, even though I said I'd wait til October for Pumpkin. It was perfect. I was happy because the first time I had coffee from Zeke's I thought it tasted burnt. It's a great place to have a yummy meal, a great cup of coffee and hang out. There's a covered patio with tables, and plenty of seating inside as well. It's cozy, yet has a spacious feel. The staff is awesome.

    What an awesome space! Pro-tip, sit in the baking area to enjoy the aroma. The deluxe breakfast sandwich is delish and make sure to choose from their vast bread selection. Service is friendly.

    Mobtown shrimp and grits

    I truly LOVE Zekes, but this 20 dollar shrimp and grits is not it. The grits have the texture of gummy mashed potatoes and its very off putting. However the toppings are delicious, the flavor is there but the texture is all wrong.

    Zeke's is the perfect place to grab a coffee and chill. Today, I decided on a Vietnamese iced coffee and a cranberry muffin. The coffee was strong, yet balanced; the muffin was average, nothing spectacular. Aside from coffee and pastries, Zeke's offers an array of sandwiches and small bites... and surprisingly, there's also a cocktail menu. The space is spacious and clean, suitable for working or studying. Service is fast and friendly. Street parking is limited but there's a free parking lot in the back. Definitely swing by if you're in the neighborhood. Support local!

    Ended up at Zekes Coffee for breakfast, as it's a place I pass all the time but have never visited. The line to order was pretty long, but it gave me time to look over the menu. I decided on the chicken biscuit, but unfortunately, once I got to the register to order, I was told they were out of biscuits. I was so set on the chicken biscuit that it took me a minute to look at the menu again and settle on something else. I went with a basic bacon egg and cheese bagel and a chai latte. I enjoyed the latte, and the bagel was fine. I'll have to make my way back for the chicken biscuit another day.

    I've been stopping in regularly for about a month now. Sometimes to do work and sometimes just for a sodie. This cozy cafe has indoor and patio seating, free WiFi, and clean bathrooms. Staff are very friendly, and this location is a good community hub. I don't think you could go wrong with anything on the menu. But if I had to recommend anything it'd be the Nitro Cold Brew, or a Peach Italian Cream Soda. The Nitro Cold Brew almost looked and tasted like an iced stout beer. It was smooth and had a thick head, while providing that much needed pep in my step. It was definitely a head-turner and had other customers asking what I was drinking! I think what really hooked me in was the Italian sodas, especially since I don't have much of a sweet tooth. There are a ton of flavors here, but of the bunch I've tried here so far, peach is the best. Super refreshing and lightly sweet. Perfect anytime of day. Today I tried their lox bagel, with their homemade lox. It was pretty good, with generous portions for the toppings. The poppy seed bagel was a bit dense but tasty.

    Zeke's on Harford Road never disappoints! My boyfriend and I stopped in for cappuccinos and ended up leaving with a bag full of pastries. He had the raspberry danish--absolutely fantastic--and I went for the blueberry pop tart (highly recommend heating it up!) and the brownie-stuffed croissant. I also grabbed a coffee mug with two mini Zeke's coffee samples for daycare, plus a brownie and cinnamon bun for later. I typically swing by just for coffee, but their variety of baked goods is too good to pass up. I'll definitely be back before Valentine's Day! If you haven't been, do yourself a favor and stop in. They also have plenty of seats if you want this to be your office for the day I love the vibe here and service is always great!

    Zekes is my favorite coffee shop in the city! It's family friendly, welcoming with a robust menu. I love their lunch sandwiches and breakfast sandwiches. There was a line to the door when we showed up and they got the line down so quickly. The Vietnamese coffee is my favorite!

    Although this place is not far from my house, I still never quite make it here. I was in the area again to rediscover this gem. All of the staff were upbeat and quirky, which made for a pleasant experience. I got a brownie and an ice coffee and sat in their outside sunroom area (perfect for getting the feel of outside, without having to be in the blazing sun). I need to make it a priority to come back for food because that will really seal the deal!

    Love this cafe place!

    Much LOVE and shoutout to Zekes today specially LARA! I hope I caught your name correctly. You are one of the many reasons why Zekes is a success! I was having a hell of a day! Additionally, with dietary restrictions and yet, you took my order with care knowing how insanely busy this cafe gets is impressive! I'm sure many of your patrons will agree with me on this. I also love you remembered my name. Thank you thank you and I'll continue to stop by when I'm in this side of the town.

    Before I moved to Baltimore, Zeke's was the only coffee shop I had heard of. My friend was a huge fan of theirs and she had periodically sent me bags of their beans. You better believe when we moved here, Zeke's was the first coffee shop we visited. What I love about Zeke's is the sheer number of roasts they will have available at any time. Walk into their shop and their shelves are packed full of various roasts and blends. I can always find something that interests me for my home coffee needs. Beside their coffee shelves, right by their entrance, is an illustrated graphic explaining the ingredients in all the different types of coffee. I love this! It means that not only will coffee snobs feel at home in their shop but the novice drinkers can be comfortable as well. Don't know the components of a drink? Just take a look at their wall. Zeke's has an extensive menu of hot and iced drinks. It is one of the largest I've seen. I've tried more drinks here than probably any other shop because of their menu size and constantly rotating "specials". 9 out of 10 times I enjoy these drinks. Zeke's also has a large variety of baked goods including a bunch of vegan options. The vegan chocolate croissants are gigantic! So, why not five stars? Mainly the parking. It stinks here. The lot is crowded and small and hard to navigate. I spend more time parking than ordering and drinking my coffee. I have begun to combat this by parking far away and walking.

    This is where Zekes Coffee started! I've been a fan of Zekes for a while - it was definitely one of the first local coffees I tried in Baltimore. I often get their bags of coffee from the farmers market so it's always a treat to visit their storefront. This was my second time here - the first time I came with a friend and tried a poppyseed Hamantaschen. The pastries and coffee shop here aren't high end, but the coffee is good and the store is so big - it's definitely more industrial feeling than the more hipster coffee joints you see popping up! The staff is fast and friendly and there is an area you can sit with dogs separate from the main area. I got their cafe con panna this time. Solid spot and definitely a neighborhood staple.

    Monique B.

    Zekes coffee is a friendly neighborhood restaurant that is definitely worth visiting. The staff are all very friendly and helpful with coffee and food suggestions. I've only tried the breakfast and coffee and I enjoyed it. It's a very busy spot so that is a good sign! The line can be long but they move very fast. Plenty of parking on the street and in the back.

    I love this place. Been coming here for years. This is still my favorite regional bagel…read moreshop/chain. You can see my previous reviews for how awesome this place is. The short version is you won't find better bagels dine in or to go in the area. Their menu is well designed with a decent variety of options without being overwhelming or trying to do too much. As a regional chain, they have several locations but this one is very well situated. There's a free parking lot and free parking on the street out front. They have a decent inside dining area and outdoor seating on the patio as well. During the pandemic, they kept going with delivery and curbside pick up and eventually opened for in-store pick up and eventually for in-store dining again. Over the past few years they have been rewarded with a growing and loyal customer base. All of this means that if you want to place an order, be prepared, especially on weekend mornings, for a decent delay as they will at times become swamped with customers. I highly recommend downloading and using their app. Much better than trying to use a third party app to order. Plus you get occasionally discounts/rewards. In order to help address the breakfast rush hour, a few years ago they installed a very large wall with alphabetized shelves for pick up orders. in addition, they recently added a monitor that shows which orders are currently ready and on the shelf, and which orders are in progress with a time estimate for when it will be ready. In terms of specific food items, I highly recommend all of the breakfast egg sandwiches. Be aware that the 'ham' they list is Taylor ham; also known as pork roll. Very delicious, but not the same thing as deli ham. All of the lunch sandwiches are well-made but I am partial to the low fat chicken salad. It's great on a bagel, cold, or on rye bread as a Panini. The french fries are a must have, and I would absolutely get them with breakfast or lunch.

But they do have a wide menu which includes cheesesteak so I decided to give them a try. Then came the 100% disappointing sad cheesesteak I was served. From the soggy bread, to the wrapper that stuck to my cheese and turned my cheesesteak into just the "steak" part. The flavor was that of a piece of bread soaked in water and tasteless. Overall did not come close to fulfilling my craving. Service was the same to follow. I approached the counter where I was greeted. The only customer service part of my experience. I told her my name and she said it would be a few more minutes. The woman then stated talking to her coworkers.. nonstop chatter. All the while the back cooks were bringing up food. And they were bagging it. After about 10 minutes of waiting. I interrupted the chatter and asked if my sandwich would be coming soon (at this point it had been 20 minutes since I ordered). She then asked me my name again and then grabbed a bag that had been sitting in the counter for some time and handed it to me. No apology.. nothing to show my bag had been sitting there for the last 8 minutes while I waited and she as the "greeter" forgot to check on it. So overall I would say the one star given is generous for the service, and food I received from this store.

I got their vegan sandwich option, the veggie sandwich (hummus, spouts, tomato, avocado, etc), which was fantastic.

There was a long line, but we were able to find a table relatively quickly. The vegan cinnamon roll was unfortunately out by the time I arrived, but I would love to have tried that (their other pastries looked incredible). For coffee, I got the coldbrew, which was delicious with a bit of oatmilk. The high ceilings make it feel larger than it is, and the bright patterns add so much personality to what would otherwise be a rather austere industrial space. Recommended for both vibe and food :)
