Its a small coffee shop with tons of customers in the high paced area of Thames St. Today they collaborated with the local school and run group and created a memory with energy. With the large crowd they still stayed upbeat and good to the customers. I stood in line but unfortunately it was too long of a wait. There were many folks around and sipping but I hope to grab a drink on another go around.
This is a pretty affordable coffee shop with a lot of different options of drinks, sandwiches, and pastries. The service was good and the wait time was average for a coffee shop. The inside is pretty spacious and is a lot bigger than what it looks like from the outside. They even have an outdoor patio in the back.
I stopped in quickly for an ice coffee. The service was quick and efficient, but the iced coffee was just okay. Not the best I have ever had, but it was priced very well. With that, they have a spacious shop with plenty of seating in the back areas and wifi. I said I would go back soon to complete some work there and actually try some of the many sandwiches they have on their menu.
I came here on a Wednesday early afternoon, and it was not crowded. In fact there was only one other person working on their computer. I got a Cortado ($3.75), which is what I usually get from Starbucks except when I received my drink, it was lukewarm. This is before I even added the milk. Personally that's a huge pet peeve for me when my HOT coffee is not hot. The ice coffee ($4.25) was good. It had good coconut flavor. However, the lid did not fit on the coffee cup. It kept snapping off. I also got the Crispy Italiano sandwich which had pepperoni, ham, roasted red peppers, provolone, and onion on a sliced baguette. The sandwich was listed as $8.95, but she rang it up as $10.95 and charged me two extra dollars for bacon which I never asked for. I told her I don't want bacon in my sandwich but she said that it doesn't have bacon that's just how it rings up. It wasn't until the manager had to step in and put in the custom amount for my sandwich. When I did get my sandwich the bread was pretty stale and hard to eat. I also noticed that the onions were chopped up imperfectly (all different sizes). I also got the Chipotle Chicken Avocado ($9.95). It came out pretty messy with the avocado smeared everywhere. Literally the whole sandwich was falling apart (see picture). While the interior is nice, the coffee and food just did not do it for me. The bathrooms were clean, except for the fact that the hand soap was completely watered down. Not sure if I would come back here again.
I tried this spot again, and I wasn't disappointed. During this visit, my dog was offered a pup cup, which was a sweet gesture, especially since I was told they didn't have pup cups during my last visit. A great alternative coffee shop, though they are on the pricier side, so definitely not a daily visit.
Loved the exposed brick and archways which I believe is the original architectural design. The service was polite and efficient. I got the lox and jalapeños bagel and it was amazing. Normally with lox it goes with an everything bagel but the recommendation of the jalapeño was perfect. I would definitely recommend.
Friendly staff! Amazing coffee - I got the Ferraro Rocher latte! It wasn't too sweet & definitely could taste the espresso. My friend also got their early grey iced tea which was also delicious and refreshing.
Fantastic service two days in a row with fabulous breakfast fare for all of us. Allow me to recap! Day one was just me and my husband who were thankful for somewhere opened on Thanksgiving morning for coffee and breakfast. We both enjoyed a dirty chai - delicious! I had Jewish rye toast with one of the best homemade hummus sides ever. My husband scarfed down his everything bagel egg & cheese breakfast sandwich. The prices are so fair. The food so excellent. The service so quick and friendly. Day two we had six of us and everyone LOVED their food. From croissant breakfast sandwiches to bagel sandwiches.
Good service and decent coffee. Pastries and food are mediocre at best. All of the pastries we ordered seemed to be slightly stale and hard. The sandwiches were okay. Good if you're in a pinch, way more on the casual side.
Got iced matcha latte and iced shaken espresso within a span of a week to study. Matcha latte didn't have enough matcha for my taste so it mainly tasted like milk. Iced shaken espresso was not sweet so I got what I ordered- it was balanced well. Both times were in the afternoon during the week. I liked that it was spacious with not busy crowd. However, when people talk, you can hear them as the voice echos and travels to different nooks of the shop. It is a great social space but not the best studying spot (unless you can tune out very well).
Great americano. I didn't know there was an inside cafe space so I hung out outside at the table to people watch. I also saw a door with outside service and a menu so I assumed I could order there or at least get my take out coffee there. I ordered online and got my order quick. I figured out there was a door to go inside and I picked up my coffee. They serve food which I will have to try another time. I like the ambience inside and it's a lot bigger than I expected inside.
The Daily Grind is a small local chain in Baltimore, and their location in Fells Point is one of my favorites to go to! The ambiance is really relaxed inside; there's a small indoor courtyard in the middle of the restaurant which is airy and scattered with a few plants in the window sills. It's a lovely place to catch up with a friend or go on a casual date, and especially works well to cowork, as they have a stable internet connection here. I ordered the egg and cheese bagel on multigrain, and the Ferrero rocher espresso with almond milk. I have ordered the espresso a few times, and it never disappoints. The Bagel was plain but tasty; I was able to get a full breakfast for about $10, which is a good deal around Fells. I have tried their turkey sandwich before on rosemary bread, which I wouldn't necessarily recommend (there was no mayo or toppings on it which made it dry). The servers here are usually pretty chill, sometimes seem a little indifferent, but their service is still good. Overall, if you're in the area, I'd recommend checking it out.
Shop is across the street from Pitango, if you've been there. Shockingly large inside, and has a deep walkway past the counter, extending to a lot of seating options. Great spot for coworking, however, your back may hurt from sitting in hard wooden chairs for a while. Nothing bad to say about the front register service- I ordered a banana nut muffin, a java chip blended coffee with a pump of caramel, and a bacon egg and cheese on a blueberry bagel with strawberry jelly. The sandwich came out relatively fast, and PIPING hot. Love the fresh vibe from food that has steam riding from it, being fresh off the griddle. Good size, the cheese was melted, and the bacon was in smaller, bite size pieces. 10/10. Be advised, the jelly is an extra $1. The muffin was super moist, and had a fresh banana twang that could only be achieved from baking it fresh, which i appreciated. Healthy amount of nuts. 10/10. Be advised, it's so moist that if you try to piece it apart, your fingers will be messy. The blended coffee was good. The extra pump of caramel really staved off the watery taste that you usually receive with blended drinks. Props to them, as even towards the end of the drink, it was still palatable. 8.5/10

I only had the chai latte with oat milk. It was very flavorful, not watery at all. The best chair latte I've had in a long time. The sitting area is spacious and clean. Service was pretty quick, we went very early so no one else was there yet. read more
What a lovely spot! I overheard these girls in my workout class talk about coffee here and I decided to check it out. The coffee was made very quickly and it was good! The price is also cheaper by a few dollars compared to other cafes in the area. The place is very cute with some seating as well. If you're on the move you can order for pick up as well! As for parking, it's fells so the limited free spots are limited, but not impossible. Otherwise walking here is great too. read more

Daily Grindin'! I tried to hit up a few different coffee spots while in Baltimore, my travels led me to Daily Grind. Walking in, very very old school with brick walls and wooden floors, Daily Grind gives a Williamsburg Brooklyn vibe. I see lots of cakes and baked goods wrapped in cellophane on the shelves. Kind of a turn off for me to see anything wrapped in plastic. However! I do see a Latte Breve as a choice, a breve is made with half & half instead of regular milk. And to me, that makes for one creamy, steamy and outright dreamy latte! I'm glad I swung in, great latte before hitting my daily grind. read more
I love this place! From its cute location, to its baristas and fast service, to its coffee. My traditional order is an oat milk vanilla latte, half sweet, and they get it right every time. I appreciate how customizable the drinks can be. Will be a staple coffee shop for me in baltimore! read more
Breakfast sandwich on a croissant and a lavender latte always hits from Daily Grind. Always super busy but the food and drinks are always good. The staff is very friendly and efficient. The seating area outside is nice on the street with water views. read more
It was very busy when we visited on Sunday morning. The place is quite large and has a good spread of indoor and outdoor seating. A cute little breakfast place in Fells Point on the water. The bagel sandwiches were a little dry and under-seasoned, but the were cheap and hit the breakfast craving. The coffee was solid. read more

One of my favorite breakfast spots in Fells! This is located right by the harbor on Thames St. The entrance can be tricky, I have walked by it a few times without realizing I passed it. There are a lot of breakfast options available, including a plethora or coffees. I normally get the brewed coffee or cold brew and I enjoy both! I also love their breakfast sandwiches, my favorite is the lox bagel. If you need a new spot to settle down and study/work, this is a great location. There is ample seating with tables located throughout the cafe. There is a outdoor space, but I have only been here during the colder months, so I am unsure if they offer outdoor seating. All in all I highly recommend this cozy not-so-little cafe! Stop in if you are in the area! read more

Truly the best coffee spot in Fells. They have amazing beans, delicious options for non-coffee lovers, great food options and the best view. Be sure to ask those working about their favorite drinks- they have so many delicious options off the menu as well. Highly recommend the iced coffee with mocha sauce and coconut. read more

Iced mocha and turkey club were perfect fuel for a study day! Seating options inside of can order to go at the outside window read more
Great coffee in a beautiful space. Right in the center of it all, across from the City Pier (Sagamore Pendry now), Daily Grind is the space that everyone is comfortable in. Quirky-yes, Comfortable-yes, the WiFi and skylights make it a student hangout. The coffee is terrific, the specialty drinks are super sweet and sugary. The food is basic, and not available after 4 pm. Great place to enjoy Fells Point. read more
This is my favorite coffee shop in Baltimore, and I'm so surprised that they're only averaging 3.5 stars on yelp! My review mainly pertains to their hot and iced coffee (which I drink black without any milk or sugar), soy lattes, smoothies, and breakfast sandwiches. Regarding coffee: Their Whimsey house blend is excellent! Also, if you buy a bag of the coffee, you get a free cup on the house! My two favorite coffees of all time are La Colombe Corsica and Daily Grind's Whimsey Blend. Regarding lattes: Their soy lattes (iced and hot) are very good. Regarding other drinks: Their smoothies are really good (especially in the summer). They also have great hot chocolate. Regarding their sandwiches: I love their breakfast sandwiches. They make a delicious sausage/egg/cheese sandwich and their Lox Works sandwich is phenomenal (I get it on Ciabatta bread, which takes it to a new level). read more

I absolutely love this place. Everything about this business is perfect. First, they are open 7 days a week, from 7am to 5pm. Therfore, they are always there for me, and I do not have to figure out some convoluted calendar (many Baltimore business keep odd hours and are open random days). Next up, they have everything you could want for breakfast. Everything from freshly brewed (very tasty btw) coffee, to breakfast sandwiches with more than a dozen types of bread to be made on (pictured coffee and bagel bacon/egg/cheese sandwich - although now I typically like their sourdough). Lastly, for Baltimore, these guys have amazing pricing, you can get a breakfast sandwich and a coffee for like $7. I appreciate the hardwork of everyone at the Daily Grind! Thank you! read more

The Daily Grind is a great casual café to stop in if you need to get some work done, if you want to hang out with some friends, or if you simply need a caffeine fix. I just had a small coffee but I would have loved to have tried more of what was on the menu. My favorite part about this place was the ambiance. The indoor seating area was pretty and almost felt rustic. It was a beautiful day out, so my friends and I sat at one of the tables that they have outside. The location also can't be beat. Definitely recommend this place! read more
