Cafes near Halethorpe

“Park Avenue Cafe is a great spot for a quick and tasty breakfast or lunch. The food is well-prepared, the service is friendly, and the prices are affordable. Try their Shrimp Salad sandwich! Highly recommended for a satisfying and budget-friendly meal.“

“Crab dip bagel was 10/10. Barely a bagel though, the bun was much softer - which only made it better. Strongly recommend. Also, tried the crème brûlée and the guava cheese pain suisse. Both were good - though the crab dip bagel was out of this world.“

“For a brunch spot, it’s very quaint and nice inside, the food (I had the Elvis pancakes) were good, as well as the drinks. Only two drawbacks: It can get pricey (they charge $5 extra just for 3 slices of bacon if your meal doesn’t come with it, which is wild), and the diner’s demographics aren’t really diverse. Otherwise, it’s a nice spot with the biggest perk being all day brunch.“

“My husband and I made a wrong turn a few weeks back and happened to see this place called blendabowl. The following wk we decided to try them out and we are completely addicted!! The quality in the taste and freshness of the bowl we get exceeded our expectations. We get blue crush with shaved almonds granola blueberries bananas and Nutella def a must try😋 The place is always clean and the staff is excellent as well as management!! Enrique definitely runs a great establishment and if you have never tried blendabowl you are missing out. We have been every day they are open since the 1st time (literally) and continue to do so☺ Mikie&Lisa“

“Good and not expensive like the food trucks that come around“

“Best chicken salad sandwich I’ve ever had!“

“The brunch burger was juicy and perfectly cooked. The peach lemonade was refreshing and balanced. The jambalaya was packed with shrimp and sausage and honestly deserves a permanent spot on the menu.“

“Food was great, service was fast, and lots of gluten free options! We will def be back!! Thanks!“

“This place is amazing. Their empanadas are absolutely the best in Maryland. Their Dominican steak bowl is AMAZING. The Korean bbq steak bowl… AMAZING!! My only complaint is their steak sub. While it was TOTALLY delicious, it was very small for $12. It was sooo good I wanted more.“

“Such a unique menu and such nice people“

“The food was absolutely amazing I loved it so much. I would eat this every day of my life if I could. The service was incredible, we ate outside and it was a bit chilly so they turned on the heaters for us!!! Matcha was so good and burrata to die for.“

“We were on the last day of our visit from out of state and wanted something good to eat with little to no wait before heading home. Spoons was the perfect place. I almost turned around because the host seemed a little cold but I didn’t. She turned out to be kind, not friendly and I’m ok with that. She wasn’t making my food and some ppl just don’t have warm personalities. She offered me something to drink while I waited for my family to come in and was helpful. The food was really good and I’m glad we ate there. The food was fresh, delicious, and cooked well. My two youngest sons split one of the meals (no kids menu) and they split up the food on plates from the kitchen (so appreciated as a mom so the kids don’t fight over who got what). My sons had pancakes and honestly, they were some of the best pancakes I’ve ever tasted that I wish I would’ve ordered some. I had the breakfast sandwich on a biscuit and a side of grits, delicious!!! 100% recommend.“

“Randomly ordered this morning through DoorDash, and I found this place. what a gem. The food was absolutely amazing and super quick delivery into the city. sandwiches were still hot and gooey. So thankful they are not right down the street for me as I would probably give them all my money. keep up the good work.“

“Catalog is my favorite coffee shop/cafe in Baltimore. I come here at least once a week and I still haven’t tried all the vegan options, simply because they have so many. Catalog outshines other spots in the city. Everything is perfection: the vibe, the staff, the espresso. I could write love songs about their espresso. It’s sublime. Their nitro iced tea and vegan sandwiches are fantastic. Updated from previous review on 2026-01-05“

“When we lived in Maryland I bought all of our coffee from High Grounds. I have now moved to Georgia and wouldn't consider changing my coffee source. The main reason that one would go to a coffee roaster for the 2nd, 3rd or 99th time would be for the quality of the coffee, and any one who would rate High Grounds less than 5 star“

“I recently discovered this cute little caffe in Old Ellicott City and it quickly became a favorite! Their coffee is fantastic - Sweet & Salty iced late is my fave! The food is always fresh, good flavors and good quality. I tried a few omelets as I mostly came for breakfast and all of them were spot on. My child ordered açaí bowl and was delighted! Their homemade goat cheese cheesecake is amazing! I definitely want to come back and try their lunch menu and more desserts! Note: it can get very busy on weekends, but worth the wait.“

“Always great crabs 🦀 at B&B !“

“My boyfriend and I were looking for a new brunch and coffee spot, and The Common Ground Cafe was a nice surprise! Their coffee is unique and tasty. The breakfast sandwiches were good too. I ordered their SW sando and my boyfriend got the Hampden sandwich. The candied bacon on the Hampden was sooo good! They’re also known for their s’more’s cookie. I recommend the place!“

“Been going to Sweet 27 for probably 12 years. My grandson is 6, this is his favorite spot. Friendly staff and great food.“

“Everything is fantastic! From breakfast sandwiches (and plates) to lunch specials. The food tastes great, you are usually in and out very quickly, and they have fantastic memories and will greet you by name. I ended up with Covid, my last day of work was Nov 17th, and I did not come back until Jan 4th. They still remembered my order! "I" didn't even remember it!!! Always excellent. Highly recommend.“

“Everything was fantastic. The service was top tier (especially for Valentines Day), and the food was delicious. We got the bruschetta and meatballs for an appetizer, followed by the chicken piccata and gnocchi for our main dishes. The best part was the dessert, which was a homemade tiramisu (and it was the best tiramisu I've ever had). The atmosphere was cozy and you can tell that the owner and staff really care about creating a fantastic Italian meal. I will definitely be back.“

“What a lovely, friendly and delicious afternoon! The place looks beautiful, the tea divine and the food spectacular! Thank you for the fun experience!! All should go!“

“Cute little diner. Friendly Staff. Good prices. Breakfast sandwiches were made fast and pretty tasty for how simple they were made. The fresh watermelon was cut onsite. Lots of drink options at reasonable prices. Overall a good place for a quick cheap meal and definitely better than most places around the hospital.“

“Stopped in last week and was overwhelmed with the options. I should have looked at the menu before I came in but it was a good problem to have. Very glad I found this place. Vigia was sweet, patient and a very welcoming employee at the register. I got the chicken Milano and it was 10/10. I ate it there and got a small sandwich to go (ham and Swiss) and couldn't have been happier with my early morning dining experience. The place is quiet and located in an office building. I have to try the rest of the menu..especially the bulgogi special. Whomever is behind this concept has done an excellent job and the employees are great at what they do.“

“Food was AMAZING, tea was super sweet, and everyone was super nice. highly reccomend and I will be back again!“

“A huge thank you to the folks at One World Cafe for coming to the Hopkins football tailgate crepe tent rescue. We discovered post game when it was time to start cooking for the team that we left our cooler of eggs and milk on the 7th floor of the Marriott parking garage. We had all the toppings but no crepe ingredients! Remembering all the great breakfasts I have had at One World (as a regular customer we have always received stellar service and food) I dashed across the street to see if they could spare some eggs and milk. Everyone was so friendly and kind and happy to help and saved the day with 8 eggs and a gallon of milk! Thank you so very much. Your kindness was much appreciated and helped our team celebrate our win! 5 stars for quality service and kindness and generosity as a bonus!“

“such an amazing experience, some dishes are served in a tea pot, tea and dessert are amazing. One of my favorite places to order food from and to dine in person. My favorite afghan spot in the city! they also sell rugs and tea sets which adds to the atmosphere“

“I recently moved offices from DC to Baltimore and needed place for coffee in the morning. This charming little shop has easily become my go-to. The standard drip coffee is exactly what I want and so much better than Dunkin or Starbucks. This place is a gem and deserves all the hype!“

“Great chicken salad sandwich! One sandwich was enough for two meals, thanks and keep up the great work!“

“beautiful space, delicious eats, i love that you can get coffee or alcohol, depending on your mood“

“Went by today for the first time and the employees could not have been nicer or more informative. They took their time to describe the different teas they had available and made recommendations based on my taste. The tea was delicious and service outstanding. It’s great to have this new small business in the area.“

“I got the Peanut butter cup latte with oatmilk - extra sweet and it was delicious 😋“

“I love this place! It’s right by my work, so I order from there pretty often. I love their coffee—I always go light on sweetener, and somehow they always get it just right. Just a touch of sweetness without overpowering the coffee flavor. The blueberry muffin is amazing, too. I’ve tried almost all of their sandwiches, and they’re all great. You definitely can’t go wrong ordering from this place.“

“Absolutely love this deli! The staff are always incredibly nice and welcoming, which makes every visit a great experience. The food is consistently hot, fresh, and tastes amazing every single time. On top of that, the prices are very reasonable for the quality you get. Definitely a go-to spot—highly recommend!“

“Best catfish and Mac and cheese I have had in years. Very friendly service“

“Stopped here for breakfast, food was good!“

“Best French Toast I have ever had. The potatoes were really amazing too. I cannot recommend the French toast enough!

Our server was a one-woman show, and I believe she said she was also the owner and the cook. Truly amazing. If I am back in Baltimore, I will be back!“

“I came here on my birthday and had the steak and egg sandwich, and needless to say, I was not disappointed. Tom is a wonderful man; he gave me a free drink and enjoyed talking about culinary delights, in particular, hoagies and cheesesteaks.“

“Good place to stop by whenever I'm in town“

“A cute cafe in a very nice neighborhood. I got the egg sandwich with over easy eggs, sourdough, and pork sausage which tasted like what was in it — I wish the bread was toasted tho since it was pretty dry for me. The quesadilla was pretty good with crunchy crust and flavorful fillings. The chai was nice and warm, slightly sweet and the pomegranate lemonade was perfectly sour. We got a table outside and it was very nice. People came in and out constantly which proves that the place is pretty populate among locals.“

“Best food on campus, breakfast and lunch. Pre-made breakfast burritos are toasty, warm, and ENORMOUS. Not for the faint of heart (me) unless you want to be sent into a food coma (which I was) and sleep through your afternoon class (worth it). Don't even get me started on the sandwiches at lunch. I get an egg salad sandwich (hummus if they're out of egg salad) on toasted rye with all the fixings -- and I mean ALL of them. You can get a mile-high stacker that's caving in on itself for a single meal swipe here. What do you get at Chick-fil-a? A single piece of chicken on soggy bread. The service here at the Coffee Shop is amazing, too. Workers are super nice and fun to chat with. If you've just finished working out at the RAC, swing in here to cancel out all those calories you burned because you earned it, champ.

Vegetarian options: Good stuff“

“I stopped today for the first time and I will definitely be back! I got a snickerdoodle latte, chocolate croissant, and some sort of caramel apple pastry. All three were SO GOOD! The chocolate croissant was so flaky and buttery! Highly recommend! Plus the lady running the cafe was so sweet and friendly!“

“Dasher Cafe is one of my favorite spots right now. It's super modern with a really cool, welcoming vibe. The coffee is top-tier: smooth, rich, and clearly made with care. The staff are friendly, attentive, and genuinely make the experience even better. Alana is one of the best baristas around. Definitely a go-to if you’re looking for chill energy and amazing coffee.“

“1:39 4 ..ll 5G§ 83 < Reviews Koba Café First coffee shop of 2023! Koba is a cozy shop on the corner. The young lady at the counter was friendly. She was familiar with the two customers in front of me. It definitely had a neighborhood friendly vibe. The shop was busy. Most of the tables on the first floor were taken up when I was there. Be sure to take a stroll up the stairs. At the top of the stairs was an adorable little spot for two people to sit and chat. The second floor has a great little area to sit and ready or study. The top floor was full of light. I ordered my usual cortado. It was a solid drink. The cortado wasn't bad but it also wasn't anything spectacular to write home about.“

“We travel a lot for youth sports and breakfast is our favorite meal. We usually end up going to a different place each morning, but this cafe was delicious that we came right back. The iced coffees were tasty and the breakfast food was solid. They have classics, but then have fun specials too. We did a day of each and both were superb. The service was solid too and I’d highly recommend the place.“

“We stumbled upon The Nook upon accident, having a little bit of extra time before an appointment. The service is great, and the food is even better. As a family that is next door at Hopkins far too often and always disappointed in the food and service, this was a breath of fresh air.“

“A well designed small space with an equally good ambient. Customer can have a very good view of the Hall with well maintained preparatory baking area and well displayed items. Some of the bakery items are unique with visual appeal amd taste. I have attached one photo of the item which I ordered. Even the sitting bench slopes towards the middle which is very convenient to sit and get up. Courier pickup segment seems to be well organised. Not a noisy environment. Very good place to relax and enjoy @ peace. Best wishes Rangarajan Ramaswamy May 25, 2026“

“I've been wanting soft pancakes after a tiring nightshift but I'm lactose intolerant! The parking was not bad and the service, drinks and food was absolutely superior. I am looking at my calendar for my next excuse for Brunch! Special thanks to Hayden and management for being so attentive to my specific dietary needs. (Lactose intolerant and whey sensitive)“
