What to do and see in Baltimore, Maryland (MD): The Best Food & Drink

January 19, 2022 Fernanda Pittenger

Since the redevelopment of the Inner Harbor in the late 1970s, Baltimore has set the standard for urban renewal. While a good part of the city's action centers around the fun and festive Harbor area, where street entertainers, open-air concerts, fireworks and parades abound, the surrounding neighborhoods offer all sorts of interesting landmarks, unique shops and delicious restaurants. Wander around Fells Point, the oldest section of Baltimore, reminiscent of an old English village, complete with pubs and cobblestone streets. Take the kids to the aquarium and check out the imaginative creations at the American Visionary Art Museum. Or stop by the Babe Ruth Birthplace and Museum for an in-depth look at the Great Bambino's life. Baltimore is also renowned for its African-American heritage sites, plus festivals and cultural events that take place throughout the year. From historic places and harbor cruises to family friendly attractions and fabulous neighborhoods, Charm City is one of the top tourist destinations in the United States.

Schola Cooking Classes

Reviewed By JoieAS

Schola has cooking classes nailed. They thought of everything in advance! All of the utensils and ingredients were prepped for us. The instruction was insightful, but it didn’t overshadow the hands-on fun. Jerry and Amy were friendly and encouraging. We planned a trip to Baltimore around this class, and I’m so glad we did! Our 6-year-old loved it!

My wife and I stopped by Old Line while visiting Baltimore from Maine. One of the owners, Mark, gave us a very fun and informative tour. We stayed quite a while at their bar afterward to sample their whiskey and rum drinks, all of which were great. The bartender couldn't have been any nicer. The Naval Aviation themed distillery and bar made this retired Navy pilot feel like I was right at home. We can't wait to go back.

Suspended Brewing Company

Reviewed By greenfeet

A: for the beer. This is nice, friendly, well-decorated brewpub that's not too crowded...yet. The owner/operators are very friendly and happy to answer questions and explain things. It has a nice open feel without looking to industrial--outside is subdued; blending into the residential neighborhood. Besides the stadiums, it's also a short walk to the B&O rail museum (an excellent collection and the first miles of track in US). The beer selection is varied with extended options---a stout and same stout with coffee, a hefeweisen and the same with orange added. Currently open only 3 days, I plan to return again soon. Oh, and Pigtown is named for the former meat-packing are of Baltimore.
