50 Best Coffee Shops near Sparrows Point

“My best friend and I ordered some drinks for drive thru pickup this morning and decided last minute when I arrived that I wanted a cake pop. We asked to add one at the window and our barista Ty was so upbeat, funny and gave us great recommendations on their treats they have! Really made our morning. :)“

“Love the varieties and the water view.“

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

“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.“

“I enjoyed talking with the staff and them giving me all the options of coffee . Super
Nice and a relief from hostile coffee environments who act like there aren’t any other choices (myriads). I decided to try an ice coffee 12 oz of FINCA MONTES URALES . Love the notes of vanilla and nutmeg . I went with a whole milk and house vanilla . PHENOMENAL! Wishing you all much forward success in all endeavors of life. Thank you for your kindness the 40 minute drive was worth it💕‼️“

“Small traditional coffee place. Great quality of coffee and most importantly how the owner carefully crafts the drinks he prepares. Absolutely amazing his attention to detail and how consistent the presentation is.
Hopefully all the baristas appreciate the owners dedication and imitate his precision making drinks.“

“Still in soft opening until 1/26 but the pastries are delicious, attentive baristas, affordable price points and has a very cozy vibe for coffee dates :)“

“Fantastic location for a coffee after a Saturday morning run. Tasty drinks, friendly staff, & plenty of room to sit & chat with friends.“

“fast, friendly and great customer service!!!!“

“I recently visited this coffee shop and was impressed by the overall experience. The atmosphere was spacious and inviting The place's cleanliness was impeccable, reflecting a commitment to maintaining a pleasant environment and also the staff was super nice. I highly recommend this coffee shop. Coming soon with fam and friends ❤️❤️❤️“

“I have liked everything I’ve tried but my go to is the parfait it’s big and affordable and the best tasting one locally! It’s my quiet happy place 🫶“

“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 had the biscuit and sausage gravy—to die for! Every bite was pure comfort. And let me tell you, my caramel macchiato was EVERYTHING—sweet, smooth, and perfectly made. The service? Absolutely outta this world. Friendly, fast, and made me feel right at home. Zeke’s, you’ve got a fan for life!“

“Matriarch Coffee lived up to every bit of the hype — and then some.

I’d been hearing about Matriarch Coffee for a while from friends near me in the DMV, and I finally made the drive up to Baltimore to see what all the hype was about.
Short answer: absolutely worth it!Long answer: I’m already thinking about my next excuse to come back.
Walking in, the space immediately delivers. The aesthetic is awesome— the kind of intentional, beautifully designed interior that feels warm and curated rather than staged. It’s trendy without being cold, and the Inner Harbor location makes it that much more special. I know there is a huge renovation planned “down the harbor” , this Matriarch is ALREADY READY! You get all the energy of the waterfront with a cozy, tucked-in feel once you’re inside.
Now, the coffee. I got a latte that was genuinely one of the better cups I’ve had in a long time — smooth, rich, perfectly pulled. I also had a Chai and paired it with a cherry & cheese danish that was fresh and delicious, the ideal complement to the drink. I asked for it heated and it was hot all the way through. Hate it when I get it and it is cold in the middle…the barista understood the assignment and got us right! Everything felt thoughtful, like someone in that kitchen actually cares about what they’re putting out — because they do.
Speaking of which — I had the pleasure of meeting the owner, and it all made sense. Warm, passionate, and clearly proud of what they’ve built. Shirts, cups, napkins, and merch that says “I love my Matriarch” is a reminder of the “Why” behind this spot I think. That kind of energy flows through the entire space and staff. You feel it the moment you walk in.
The Matriarch isn’t just a coffee shop. It’s a destination. If you’re in Baltimore, this is a must. If you’re outside the city — make the drive. Trust me.
See you soon, Matriarch!“

“Great spot, very welcoming environment. Coffee is great, food is perfect for a quick lunch. Cool selection of records which is great to look at and buy while waiting for your order. Go to spot from now on for sure.“

“Best bagel I’ve ever had. Including every spot I’ve been to in NY. Breakfast sandwiches amazing. Biscuits. Vibe is so chill, staff friendly, absolutely love this place“

“Amazing coffee and yummy breakfast sandwiches. I love the Java chip Granita! You must try!❤️☕️“

“Very cute little place. Owner is nice, and yes there is a bird! I didn’t realize there weren’t that many pictures because the parrot is usually perched atop the owner’s shoulder…

Unpretentious, very reasonable prices, charming. Would definitely come back.“

“You haven’t had a good crepe until you’ve come to Irina’s! Their home made batter is the best part of it all! GLUTEN FREE options are a plus for people with allergies. I love the waffles most! You’re able to put whatever you want inside your crepe or on top your waffle! The staff includes the owner Irina and her son Paul, they are super nice and love seeing new customers! This spot is definitely somewhere I’d take you for breakfast!“

“Perfect place nice service and more the flavors are super🫠🫠🫠🫠“

“Cute little coffee shop that I didn’t even know it existed! Met up with a workout group in front of this coffee shop. A few day later I decided to finally give it a try. It’s super cute inside! Definitely one of those aesthetic coffee shops. I was surprised on how empty it was inside (only 1 additional customer working on her laptops). I expected the place to be busy considering that it’s right across the street from the law school. I ordered the Iced Caramel Macchiato and by far, it is one of the best I’ve ever had!! I didn’t see a food menu and the pastry display was empty. I’ve been back a few times and the drinks keep getting better and better but the lack of traffic has me believing that this new favorite of mine may not make it. The staff is friendly, but can be a bit inattentive when walking in since the place is ghost town and staff is not paying too much attention. Hopefully traffic of picks up soon! This place has potential!!“

“Great place to grab a quick and unique breakfast! We stayed at the Hotel Indigo about 10 minutes walking from this cafe. It was convenient, but also made us feel like we were experiencing Baltimore. We had fantastic sliders, an ube croissant, and coffee. The space is cozy and the service was amazing!!“

“It's a bit cramped, but the staff are friendly. Their selection isn't huge, but what they do offer is pretty tasty.
Paying fifty cents for whipped cream to only get a very little bit crammed under the drinker lid was a bit of a bummer. They should really get some of the dome-style lids.“

“Took my kids there for the first time this week; we each tried a different drink. One Brown sugar milk tea, one strawberry milk tea with coconut jelly, and the triple layer Vietnamese coffee. Holy cow! That coffee didn’t need anything added. Had the right sweetness, creaminess and the coffee was excellent. If you need a pick me up, that will not disappoint! The strawberry milk tea was much better than Chai Times with a richer taste. Price was better too! We can’t wait to come back and try some other drinks.“

“Large, clean, comfortable cafe. Lots of seating. A cool playlist was on, and it was the perfect volume (you could easily tune it out if you were talking or studying). Their coffee is smooth and delicious and the service was very friendly. The egg and cheese biscuit was a little boring taste-wise, but I saw other people's dishes that looked really good. Can't wait to try something else next time.

Also, they have really cool looking merch“

“Excellent food, friendly staff, and great space for lunch or an event!“

“Beautiful people, atmosphere, hand made gifts, and espresso drinks & teas are at Hon’s Honey Marketplace. There are a few tables and warm window-side seating for those who want to sip and read. I’ll absolutely “bee” back! If you’re not in the area, they often have a table at the Maple Lawn farmers market in Howard County, too! I swear their honey has helped my spring and summer allergies.“

“Beautiful boutique hotel with friendly staff. Check out the Speak Easy and rooftop restaurant. Mt Vernon park is just across the street and Mt Vernon marketplace is just 2 blocks away.“

“The jitter machine is awesome and the place has a very cool layout“

“I love this place!! Got to enjoy my coffee outside of their cute little patio!!“

“Reverie coffee is my go to spot for a morning coffee or breakfast sandwich. The staff is so kind and clearly cares about the community, their ingredients are fresh, and the atmosphere is wildly welcoming. I love getting some work done here and chatting with the staff during breaks.“

“If you want a great cup of coffee, this is it. The owner roasts Ethiopian beans in house and serves the coffee from a French press. The latest cation is in the heart of Locust Point. There’s outdoor seating that is welcoming to anyone who wants to slow down and enjoy the richness of their cup of coffee.“

“My barista, David, was so lovely and welcoming!! I wandered in groggy from time change and sleep and left energized for the day! I tried the espresso and it was great as was my americano with oat milk. 10/10 recommended!!“

“The salmon is sooooooo GOOD!“

“The barista answered all of my questions about the coffee. He also asked about the qualities that I like in my coffee, so that he prepared something that I would enjoy drinking.“

“The best homemade rice pudding I’ve ever had.“

“Karen is an amazing baker. She saved the day after we were let down for our wedding cake. She delivered a beautiful 3 tiered cake. The flavours were a delicious lemon with lemon curd, vanilla and raspberry and chocolate biscuit cake. All our guests were raving about it. Couldn't recommend her enough 😊💕“

“fantastic in every aspect“

“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.“

“I love this location! The fast, friendly service they provide is hard to find these days. I come every morning and they take the time to remember my name and my coffee with just a little espresso! I am truly a fan and highly recommend it. Come in and see for yourself! ☕️“

“The best pizza in the city!!“

“This is one of the best snowball shops in Baltimore reasonably priced and amazing woman owned and black owned but amazing love the flavors and the seasonal fruit after league this is my go to spot“

“had sausage egg and cheese bagel from there with tomato🤗😊 it was awesomeness“

“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!“

“This dunkin' donuts was very clean. The staff was very personable. The donuts were amazing they were so fresh I even had some left over the next day and they were still very fresh. I recommend if you're getting your donuts I will go to this dunkin' donuts.“

“We were a large group that came in from out of state for the Goya tournament held at St Nicholas. The food was delicious, authentic Greek, and the portions were huge. We are thankful to the owners who accommodated our large group. If you want a cozy Greek restaurant with great Greek food you definitely want to try this place out! I got the pork souvlaki platter and the tirokeftedes- Καλή όρεξη“

“Cute coffee shop on a quiet corner in Baltimore. Stopped by to get a quick bite and a hot drink.

Their chocolate croissant was delicious! It was freshly-baked and flaky. Would definitely get it again. I also enjoyed their chai tea latte.“

“Weekend and evening staff are weird. Came in last weekend for a few items with two coffees and there were some chemicals of some sort in it because my stomach was burning. Was told to come and get a free coffee. Came in this week and another person was there with a scarf around his face began to laugh and minimize my issue. Then began to uncontrollably laugh then left out the front to go into the back then grabbed a cup and poured the coffee after seemingly dropping something in it after turning sideways from his finger that seemed to be stuck because he kept shaking it over my cup. Didn’t think once about drinking it. The morning shift is amazing and I love them.However they need to be mindful of the tall guy that like to like the croissants in the morning and place them I a plastic bin. He’s weird too.“

“We are in town for the National ProStart Invitational. We brought our students in and the visit was amazing. The products were beautiful and wonderfully made. Each of our students left with something. As someone who works in the industry and has a focus in baking and pastries it is top notch!“

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