    Wine bar
    Stephanie W.

    Maybe we picked the wrong weekend to try a new place... the weekend before the 4th of July when all the planes and boats were about but we wanted to make the weekly farmers market and try a new place for coffee and breakfast. We were greeted immediately with a line, which is a good thing. What was an issue for me is the dysfunction of the line to order, the area to pick up to go orders and the area for the server to bring seated patrons orders were all in the same place. Causing a lot of confusion and honestly, makes me question food safety. Anywho, we ordered the almond croissant, GF lemon blueberry muffin, and the vanilla bean cruffin along with two lattes. We were unimpressed with the beverages, it has a burnt undertone to it. The almond croissant was delicious large and flaky, no shortage of almonds. Highly suggest! The vanilla bean cruffin... okay... first time consumer, lifetime LOVER!!! Flaky and moist with the perfect amount of vanilla bean cream. I think about it often. The muffin was mid (as the kids say). Loaded with tart blueberries but the essence of the lemon was lacking. Great size and moist but wasn't giving the flavor mashup promised. I'd love to come back at night. The location sits right on the water and in the evening they have wine. Probably a great place to chat or create. I will definitely go back for some danishes and I'm interested in the rest of the menu. They also have some cool activities each night.

    Always one of my favorites spots in Baltimore to grab a coffee and pastry to chill at. Staff are always so welcoming and friendly. Coffee drinks are fresh made to order and the baked goods are always delicious. Definitely a favorite in fells point and Baltimore

    cafe was alright. we didn't know after 5 they switch to dinner and other lunch options are unavailable and you have to sit in and can't just grab a table outside by the sea. service was a little confusing, not super friendly and bakery items were alright. i think you should stick to their gelato.

    Two Almond Croissants
    Andrew C.

    When we arrived in Baltimore, this was our first stop for coffee & a bite to eat. We thoroughly enjoyed the service, coffee and breakfast treats. Sitting outside was lovely, people watching and seeing boats go by in the harbor. Our party enjoyed an Iced & Hot Latte, a hot Chi Tea Latte and the other Iced. We enjoyed Almond Croissants, Cinnamon Roll and an Egg Croissant sandwich. All were delicious and kicked off our vacation where we were ready to explore!

    Rustic sandwich, polenta fries, and meatballs
    Zayn D.

    The sandwich was 10/10. The seas salt focaccia was phenomenal - makes you want to take some home! The prosciutto, basil and mozzarella was an incredibly combo and look at the size of it! I wasn't the biggest fan of the polenta fries - I'm more partial to regular fries and wish there were just more in general rather than just 5-6. The meatballs though - the pesto and meatballs went really well and would love to have it as a sandwich. The service was great and even let my friend and I move from outdoors to indoors when it started raining!

    The family was exploring the Fells Point neighborhood. We decided to try this place for our late afternoon coffee break because it was located next to water front with a good view. We were surprised by the full table service, we thought it would be a casual counter coffee shack. We ordered coffee and tea. The drinks were good, but the friendly waitress seem to be hurrying us. I supposed they wanted to get ready to dinner service. Prices were in line with the competitors.

    Food and service was great! Employees are nice and the ambiance was lively! Will be back :)

    Latte and Banana Bread
    Cammi P.

    I've been wanting to try Pitango Bakery Cafe for awhile and I'm so glad I finally did. The highlight of my order was definitely the banana bread. Filled with so many banana chunks and perfectly baked topped, it was the best accompaniment to my latte. It was busy but service was great and the workers were confidently able to tell me that the banana bread did not contain nuts. The coffee came out quick. Sitting inside was definitely the move on this cold day, but with many tables and seats, it was easy to find a table. I would love to go back and try the sandwiches. Additionally, for the coffees being one size, it was pretty large, was a good value, and definitely had a lot of espresso in it.

    Marscapone and Jam Crossaint
    Karen T.

    I really enjoy the sandwiches and pastries that they have here. The coffee is also good. It does get a little busy sometimes. But a great place to get some work done during the day while enjoying a pastry. They also have outside seating by the water when it's nicer out. The pastries were really fluffy. I got the mascarpone and jam croissant and I enjoyed it.

    Iced London fog with lavender syrup
    Jendai S.

    The staff was very friendly and kind when I was taking forever to order. I got a London fog with lavender syrup (which was an extra 1.25) but it was very sweet and very good. I also got a earl grey loaf, mine wasn't warmed but I think if you asked for them to warm it, it will be so much better! The bakery also has space for you to sit down and work with tables more 4, and a longer table towards the side that is near outlets. It's worth a try if you are looking for a bakery to sit and do work near the hospital!

    Inside
    Angela L.

    I was in the area so I decided to check this place out-- it's pretty spacious and a good spot if folks want to get some café work done. The folks working here were fine I feel like they were used to a lot of foot traffic and wanted to get your order and give it to you. The coffee and coffee cake was just so-so, it is a pretty pricey joint. There's a lot of parking in this area but be mindful of the cobblestone like ground

    Cocktails

    Beautiful space -- perfect for co-working, grabbing a quick bite, or hanging out with friends! I stopped by to try their new Roman-style pizza and absolutely loved it. My favorite was the Nduja, topped with spicy pork salami spread and creamy stracciatella cheese. The Roman-style pizza paired perfectly with a refreshing Hugo Spritz The service was wonderful too -- everyone was so friendly and welcoming. I'll 100% be back to see what else Pitango has to offer and to soak in those gorgeous waterfront views!

    bruschetta
    Sarah S.

    i came here around 4:30 on a sunday to get some work done as other coffee shop/work spots were closing around that time. i got a black tea which was brewed well and the bruschetta app. the tomato bruschetta was really good and i'm sure the olive tapenade would have been for someone who likes olives! i just really wanted the tomato bruschetta; i knew what i was getting into when i ordered it. the bread is definitely house made and is really tasty. the service was great and i liked that they brough a whole water jug to the table as i tend to drink a lot of water when i eat. the pizza looked interesting and i would like to come back to try it at some point. they say when they switch over to dinner that laptop use is not allowed at the tables (although we were seated at a table and not a counter despite having our laptops). the wifi also didn't work. it was good, but didn't totally wow me. i would be absolutely willing to give them another shot.

    Do they have high chairs for babies?

    I didn’t see any when I went there just 3 weeks ago.

    Can I use my laptop here?

    Yes! There are outlets and space to sit and do work.

    Do they make London Fogs?

    Yes

    Just so I know why are there two different address for this spot?

    Hey Ashley, it's because one location serves coffee and gelato and the other location on Ann St & Thames serves their cafe food and drinks.

    What is their parking situation like?

    Street parking is fairly easy to find !

The second part of this establishment is the café. But really it's a very good Indian restaurant. They offer some other things that are not Indian. We tried the pizza served on rice flour naan but honestly, I would skip that. We got the orange chicken it is made with tandoori chicken and the orange chicken seasonings. It was so good. It would take me a while to get through all the menu, but I would happily do that in the honor of research. It has a fairly decent sized dining area and then there's a bar area as well. We were there for lunch so I'm not quite sure how busy the bar area is or if it's popular. We are always looking for really good gluten-free places because of celiac and we were thrilled to find sweet 27 Café and bakery for lunch. I would also note that they had a lot of vegetarian and vegan options as well. Again, I would be willing to try all of the tofu dishes that looked really good on the menu.

Arancini Palermo - Extremely disappointing. It was slightly burnt, and despite being described as containing a beef and pork ragu, I couldn't see or taste any meat. I initially thought we'd been served the Formaggi and even asked the server, who confirmed it was the Palermo after checking with the kitchen. The meat was supposedly very finely minced, but it was undetectable. Overall, the flavor was off. Service: They were nice, but slow and inefficient. When we asked for the check, we waited for about 10 minutes and no one had come. I ended up going to the counter to pay. After I had paid and returned to the table, my wife told me the server was walking around with a check, likely had forgot which table had asked for it. Ambiance: This was the best part. We sat outside, beautiful day. If you want to come to sit down outside on a nice day and have a drink, it would probably be enjoyable.

It's within the Johns Hopkins college campus & a neighborhood, so parking is really horrible. I ended up parking in a non spot and putting my hazards on. It's a cute little, but spacious place located next to an airport building. It's on the corner and has a nice little outside seating area with about 5 tables. Inside is bigger than it looks and has a nice amount of seating as well. Since my time was limited, I didn't really get to explore the menu like I wanted, so I ordered a hazelnut latte and a ham & cheese croissant. Their croissants looked so good, I wanted one of each. They also had several toasts on their menu. I'll have to go back for sure! Th service was regular, you order, they tell you how much you owe and you pay. I got in my car and couldn't wait.

The cream puffs shell was stale and chocolate topping was super sweet, unfortunately these were far from heavenly. Maybe another day, Vaccaro.

I asked if it could be sliced like the white bread loaf can but I was informed that the classic sourdough loaf is too large to fit in the slicer.
