I would not recommend this to anyone looking to buy a hat...but rather those who want to buy two or more! While it has been a long time since hats were wildly popular, there is a renaissance afoot among men and women who long for the timeless elegance of a proper hat. For those who wish to be a part of that - this store is for you! The owner/proprietor Jai (Jay?) personally attended to my tastes, something in a Trilby or Pork pie with a stingy brim, and ended up buying two for myself, and a spring/summer Fedora for my wife. Highly recommended. read more

Hats In The Belfry - Hat - Hats Near Me - MILLERSVILLE, Maryland

After a thoroughly satisfying lunch at Meli, HG and I decided to wander around the area to explore... and of course my eyes lit on Hats in the Belfry. (What hat-collecting crazy cat lady wouldn't be drawn to such a place?) While he finished his very messy ice cream cone, I trolled among the gorgeous hats on display, thoroughly engaged -- did I mention that they specialize in cloches? My very favorite type of hat? Which I look fabulous in? The gentleman behind the counter was engaging, enthusiastic about hats, and quite debonair in his chapeau. Having just purchased boots (yay, boots!), I couldn't justify the purchase of a hat (or six), but I've bookmarked the site, and will be visiting it, online, at least, often. Sweet cloches, with your buttons and ribbons and fur and felt, you will be mine! (And there's a charming houndstooth cap that is likely to end up in HG's Christmas stocking...) read more

An amazing hat shop in the middle of Fell's Point, stocked wall to wall with hats of all kinds, including some accessories, for both men and women. The clerk was a lovely lady who was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful in helping us pick up a new hat for the SO. She explained the materials, fits, and sizes and helped him look for the correct size. Overall it was such a nice shopping experience, with no pressure at all from the salesperson. read more

It's so cool that we are lucky enough to have a legit hat store located right in the heart of Fell's Point! I tend to be a ball cap or beanie guy but when I need to get a little more fancy for things like Preakness or Holiday parties this is where I'll end up! This place is stocked full of every type of hat you can think of and love that it is also full of throwback references and little homages to the time when EVERYONE wore a hat all the time. I had so much fun trying on a ton of different ones and plan to be back next time I want another. read more

I wanted a high quality fedora and finally after some investigation found that you couldn't do much better than Borsalino. Not quite having the budget for beaver felt I settled in on the fur felt and I couldn't be happier. For me the brim size is perfect and the hat is easy to wear casually or dressed up. You can definitely feel the quality of this hat as soon as you pick it up and it is a real head turner. You may not get the most compliments but that is due more to people's innate inability to communicate with strangers. Rest assured they are thinking that you are wearing an excellent hat. The service I received from Hats in the Belfry was above and beyond as well. They ran out of my size and couldn't fill my order but upon trying on another Borsalino determined that I was a 7 1/2 instead of a 7 3/8. They gave me a slight discount and expedited my shipping to ensure that I still received my hat on the day I should have. Which brings me to one last point I have always worn a 7 3/8 size hat for baseball caps and measured to a 7 3/8 equivalent with a tape measure but the 7 3/8 was in fact too tight and the 7 1/2 fits perfect. So keep that in mind when ordering. read more

Hats In The Belfry - Borsalino Campania II. A truly beautiful hat! - Hats Near Me - MILLERSVILLE, Maryland

Great little hat shop in the heart of Fells Point. They have a decent selection but they are pricey. Staff is friendly; they were more than happy to offer recommendations and give their input on different styles. Sometimes they serve wine and cheese; nice! I don't recall seeing baseball caps, so if that's what you're looking for, definitely check out "Lids". They have stores at Eastpoint and Towson malls. Note: They also have a small selection of scarves and mittens/gloves. read more

Cool store with an awesome pun in the name and a decent selection of hats, but way too pricey for my budget. read more

Cool store! I've always daydreamed of owning a hat store. Hats In the Belfry is exactly what it would be. Simple, clean and straight to the point I felt giddy trying out the wide array of hats they have on hand. The women's side was fun too, my girlfriend and I had a blast figuring out which hat would be perfect for the Kentucky Derby, yeah -- we're those people. Aside from collection of caps and headgear, they also had an assortment of belts, wallets, and bags -- neat! read more

Great customer service. Staff very informative and fashion forward. Great quality products. Will definitely be shopping here again.

I bought a fedora. I'm never going to wear it, but it's the first place in about three years of not really looking I found one that fit my melon head... so I bought it. The 25% off sale didn't hurt. Actually, I was seriously on the fence and the cool looking, engaging guy working there made owning one seem so natural that I really couldn't argue against it. I wanted to be as cool as him. I know I never will be. How can you be cool with such a big head? You can't. I'm gonna try. Don't judge me. read more

I've always been amused by places masquerading as 'hat stores' that only sell baseball caps. I've also been disappointed by other random places that have tiny selections of actual hats with only a few sizes. If you're with me on these two points, Hats in the Belfry is a godsend. They have just about every style of mens hats that you can imagine (save for baseball caps because what's the point...), and a plentiful selection for gents with a larger melons. Put simply, if you're serious about actual hats, this is the place to go. As for service, I've always been pleased. I've never been treated rudely, and I don't walk into a place expecting to have flower petals thrown in front of my path, so this place is a real gem as far as I'm concerned. read more

A hat shop!? How quaint. Greeted and treated so well from the start. The gentleman that took care of me fitted me with a thousand hats, chatted casually, he was extremely accommodating, understood my style, and was patient. Excellent salesmen skills. I left with two new lids: the first was one-size-fits-all that he resized and expanded to fit my noggin better and the other he tried tried several sizes to find the perfect one Very stylish, chic, and good quality hats. read more

We were in town for a weekend get away and stumbled upon this place in Feels Point. What a great find! Excellent hats, even with the pandemic supply shortages and even better customer service! This lady knows her hats! read more

Like this place in Fell's Point. Was a random walkby, and found a hat on clearance for only $20. Good balance between male/female styles, and the 2 guys behind the counter were pleasant and polite. read more

I don't wear hats but I like trying them on, apparently. I was not hoping to obtain a lice infestation or worse, it is just kind of fun to try on silly hats and joke around with your friends. The staff here was very knowledgeable and friendly without being pushy. I found a cool hat and a scarf for my girlfriend and I nearly bought a hat for myself after finding one that fit my giant cranium. It looked kind of cool but I know that I'll never wear it, so I left it there for the time being. I'm still thinking about that hat, so I may go back for it. read more

CliffsNotes: Hats in the Belfry good selection of hats and all reasonably priced. Apparently, everything you see in the movies (e.g. Indiana Jones) are all wrong: NEVER squeeze or pinch the crown because you should handle by the brim only. There's a lot you can learn about real hats here - everything from Kangol driver's caps, top hats (yes, they still exist), derby hats to fedoras. There are great selections for women as well like cloche and flapper hats. So if you're looking for something to adorn your head, then check out Hats in the Belfry. You'll have a lot of fun to say the least. [Original Visit: May 30, 2010] read more

Cute little hat store in Fells Point. They didn't have a ton of ball caps like most of the other hat stores, but instead had unique hats that people don't wear everyday. If I was a hat person I'd definitely shop here! read more

You want a hat? This is your place. Even if you're not a hat wearer it's worth a visit - you don't find any hat shops anymore, and not one this good. Great staff, great hats. read more

As I walked past this place, I was about to write it off as another one of the dozens of trendy places in Fells Point that uses a clever play on words to pique consumer's curiosity. And while that is probably still an accurate assessment, I have to admit that this store rocks! It is the first establishment that I have been to, including your traditional department store, that has an extensive array of tastefully fashionable as well as hipster hats for women. On the men's side, if you have a penchant for pageboy and Kangol-style caps, this is your mecca. The store also sells top hats, cossacks, fedoras, rubber wallets, gunny sack bags, and belts. You cannot leave the store without smiling because there is just something about the array of headgear, earmuffs, knitted caps, and berets that brings out your inner child. Thank goodness the staff is patient when you start running around the store giggling and modeling the different hats for your friends. I highly recommend we all work to bring hats back for the 2010's. So, check them out online at www.hatsinthebelfry.com or visit them at one of the four Maryland locations, two of which are in Charm City. read more

I was greeted as I walked in the door. Knowledgeable staff. Very helpful. They didn't have exactly what i wanted to look at in stock, but showed me everything similar. You can't blame the staff for am item being out of stock at the end of that season. read more

Stopped in numerous times while visiting Fells. Daine (I think he is the manager) has been there almost every time and has been absolutely delightful every time. Very helpful and knowledgable about his products, but not at all pushy. They have a great selection of hats as well as other accessories (ties, socks, and possibly suspenders). read more
