    I went back to Zeke's today to co-work with a colleague while I'm in town and I'm really glad that I did. I arrived around 1pm and it was pretty busy, but my colleague had gotten there earlier and got us a table in the back room. I immediately ordered lunch upon getting settled. Squirrely was super nice & helped me decide on the Reuben with fries, and boy oh boy, I'm glad they did. I ate every single fry within minutes of receiving them, they didn't even need a dipping sauce. The Reuben was amazing, the corned beef was so tender. Their house made sauerkraut rye was perfect. Later, I ordered a Pumpkin Spice Latte, even though I said I'd wait til October for Pumpkin. It was perfect. I was happy because the first time I had coffee from Zeke's I thought it tasted burnt. It's a great place to have a yummy meal, a great cup of coffee and hang out. There's a covered patio with tables, and plenty of seating inside as well. It's cozy, yet has a spacious feel. The staff is awesome.

    What an awesome space! Pro-tip, sit in the baking area to enjoy the aroma. The deluxe breakfast sandwich is delish and make sure to choose from their vast bread selection. Service is friendly.

    Zeke's is the perfect place to grab a coffee and chill. Today, I decided on a Vietnamese iced coffee and a cranberry muffin. The coffee was strong, yet balanced; the muffin was average, nothing spectacular. Aside from coffee and pastries, Zeke's offers an array of sandwiches and small bites... and surprisingly, there's also a cocktail menu. The space is spacious and clean, suitable for working or studying. Service is fast and friendly. Street parking is limited but there's a free parking lot in the back. Definitely swing by if you're in the neighborhood. Support local!

    Ended up at Zekes Coffee for breakfast, as it's a place I pass all the time but have never visited. The line to order was pretty long, but it gave me time to look over the menu. I decided on the chicken biscuit, but unfortunately, once I got to the register to order, I was told they were out of biscuits. I was so set on the chicken biscuit that it took me a minute to look at the menu again and settle on something else. I went with a basic bacon egg and cheese bagel and a chai latte. I enjoyed the latte, and the bagel was fine. I'll have to make my way back for the chicken biscuit another day.

    Mobtown shrimp and grits

    I truly LOVE Zekes, but this 20 dollar shrimp and grits is not it. The grits have the texture of gummy mashed potatoes and its very off putting. However the toppings are delicious, the flavor is there but the texture is all wrong.

    I've been stopping in regularly for about a month now. Sometimes to do work and sometimes just for a sodie. This cozy cafe has indoor and patio seating, free WiFi, and clean bathrooms. Staff are very friendly, and this location is a good community hub. I don't think you could go wrong with anything on the menu. But if I had to recommend anything it'd be the Nitro Cold Brew, or a Peach Italian Cream Soda. The Nitro Cold Brew almost looked and tasted like an iced stout beer. It was smooth and had a thick head, while providing that much needed pep in my step. It was definitely a head-turner and had other customers asking what I was drinking! I think what really hooked me in was the Italian sodas, especially since I don't have much of a sweet tooth. There are a ton of flavors here, but of the bunch I've tried here so far, peach is the best. Super refreshing and lightly sweet. Perfect anytime of day. Today I tried their lox bagel, with their homemade lox. It was pretty good, with generous portions for the toppings. The poppy seed bagel was a bit dense but tasty.

    Zeke's on Harford Road never disappoints! My boyfriend and I stopped in for cappuccinos and ended up leaving with a bag full of pastries. He had the raspberry danish--absolutely fantastic--and I went for the blueberry pop tart (highly recommend heating it up!) and the brownie-stuffed croissant. I also grabbed a coffee mug with two mini Zeke's coffee samples for daycare, plus a brownie and cinnamon bun for later. I typically swing by just for coffee, but their variety of baked goods is too good to pass up. I'll definitely be back before Valentine's Day! If you haven't been, do yourself a favor and stop in. They also have plenty of seats if you want this to be your office for the day I love the vibe here and service is always great!

    Zekes is my favorite coffee shop in the city! It's family friendly, welcoming with a robust menu. I love their lunch sandwiches and breakfast sandwiches. There was a line to the door when we showed up and they got the line down so quickly. The Vietnamese coffee is my favorite!

    Although this place is not far from my house, I still never quite make it here. I was in the area again to rediscover this gem. All of the staff were upbeat and quirky, which made for a pleasant experience. I got a brownie and an ice coffee and sat in their outside sunroom area (perfect for getting the feel of outside, without having to be in the blazing sun). I need to make it a priority to come back for food because that will really seal the deal!

    Love this cafe place!

    Much LOVE and shoutout to Zekes today specially LARA! I hope I caught your name correctly. You are one of the many reasons why Zekes is a success! I was having a hell of a day! Additionally, with dietary restrictions and yet, you took my order with care knowing how insanely busy this cafe gets is impressive! I'm sure many of your patrons will agree with me on this. I also love you remembered my name. Thank you thank you and I'll continue to stop by when I'm in this side of the town.

    Before I moved to Baltimore, Zeke's was the only coffee shop I had heard of. My friend was a huge fan of theirs and she had periodically sent me bags of their beans. You better believe when we moved here, Zeke's was the first coffee shop we visited. What I love about Zeke's is the sheer number of roasts they will have available at any time. Walk into their shop and their shelves are packed full of various roasts and blends. I can always find something that interests me for my home coffee needs. Beside their coffee shelves, right by their entrance, is an illustrated graphic explaining the ingredients in all the different types of coffee. I love this! It means that not only will coffee snobs feel at home in their shop but the novice drinkers can be comfortable as well. Don't know the components of a drink? Just take a look at their wall. Zeke's has an extensive menu of hot and iced drinks. It is one of the largest I've seen. I've tried more drinks here than probably any other shop because of their menu size and constantly rotating "specials". 9 out of 10 times I enjoy these drinks. Zeke's also has a large variety of baked goods including a bunch of vegan options. The vegan chocolate croissants are gigantic! So, why not five stars? Mainly the parking. It stinks here. The lot is crowded and small and hard to navigate. I spend more time parking than ordering and drinking my coffee. I have begun to combat this by parking far away and walking.

    This is where Zekes Coffee started! I've been a fan of Zekes for a while - it was definitely one of the first local coffees I tried in Baltimore. I often get their bags of coffee from the farmers market so it's always a treat to visit their storefront. This was my second time here - the first time I came with a friend and tried a poppyseed Hamantaschen. The pastries and coffee shop here aren't high end, but the coffee is good and the store is so big - it's definitely more industrial feeling than the more hipster coffee joints you see popping up! The staff is fast and friendly and there is an area you can sit with dogs separate from the main area. I got their cafe con panna this time. Solid spot and definitely a neighborhood staple.

I LOVE coffee ice cream however so, Coffee for me generally consists of 1/4 - 1" of coffee, then a lot of milk and a ton of ice. If I'm really feeling fancy, I might even add caramel!!!! I know! I know! But hey, I'm crazy like that!!! You can't STOP ME!!! I'm a maverick, dammit!!! (LOL) Okay, so I was driving around taking care of errands and saw a DD. I never think of this place anymore bc the donuts aren't quite the same as they were from my youth. I suddenly had a flashback of seeing people w/ the iced coffee cups all the time. I equate getting coffee from DD or Starbucks as being so 'grown up'... lol. Meanwhile, that urge NEVER hits me to grab a coffee to go... (Like why would I want all that strong bitter coffee taste in an entire glass - YUCK-O!!!). But ooooh they look so grown when they transport them around carrying out all the hustle & bustle they have in their lives. I like to think regulars need that coffee to perform 101 things in a day. It's like they each approach the counter screaming, "Give me a HUMONGOUS FLASHY GALLON OF CAFFEINE w/ extra shots of XXX (whatever one gets shots of), and STAT! I have to go deliver a baby / save lives / build a bridge!!! I don't have time to waste. Hurry up, bun"!!!! That sh*t sooooo isn't me. I'm that calm friendly dude that is on the side saying, "is it really that serious, dude? Okay, then...". I digress. I decided to be a grown up today and get a massive gallon (ok. I only got a medium but I'm sure this drink = 1/2 the coffee I consume annually), of iced coffee like the stressed out folks do... LOL Now I'm on Belair Road so u get a mix of hi/lo with vendors. I just left a place where I didn't wanna touch anything - way too messy / cluttered. I see DD, pull into the location, walk in and I didn't have high expectations. Pleasantly surprised, the inside is extremely clean and quiet. The workers acknowledged me as soon as I entering, while performing tasks. I get to the counter as a barista (Is the male version also 'barista'? Who knows? Anyway...), takes a drive thru order, then stepped over to the counter and asked what I wanted. Multitasking, handling the drive thru & counter seamlessly. The other barista started preparing the drinks without saying a word. This efficiency was pretty impressive. SCORE! Since I'm not the coffee drinker, I tell Him I wanna try an 'iced coffee'. He asks a few questions and says he knows what to get me. Then asks if I want a flavor like caramel or something?!?! WHAAAAAT?!?!? You can do that here? HELL YEAH!! Needless to say, this drink is SUBLIME!!! I can see how the 'adults' can be addicted to this concoction. Yummmmm-o!!!! Thanks for makin this old man feel like I 'had to' go save the world w/ my drink in hand today. LOL SCORE! If I drank coffee on the regular, I would definitely frequent this location.

In addition she claimed to be talking to the owner on the phone at the same time.

The area near the front window almost feels like a private table. It was definitely giving a great vibe. We checked the menu prior to picking this place and they had EXACTLY what I wanted. I had a big ole brunch of their Grand Marnier Strawberry French Toast which was a three stack of THICCCCC cut Texas bread. It was better than I hoped for! And I brought at least half of it home, because ole greedy butt over here also got the platter with the home fries (I asked for onions and got this caramelized onion topping that was almost a jam. Yummm), the bacon and the eggs your way (scrambled with cheese). My companion had this big ole omelette with a lot of veggies and shared my french toast. The sauce they served with the home fries was sooooo good - it was almost like Heinz 57 sauce but with less of a vinegary bite. The jam that came for my English Muffin was delicious and praise GOD they served butter that wasn't ice cold and unspreadable so yeah hella points for that. For the mimosas, we did the "buy the carafe and the bottle", with a carafe of cranberry juice and a bottle of Cava Prosecco. I loved that we were able to select WHICH bubbles we wanted and for two people it worked out very well price wise. The host (tall guy with a mohawk) and our server (Robyn) were absolutely fantastic. Personable and friendly and very attentive, very much able to answer any questions we had (THANK YOU ROBYN!!!). In short - this place is a gem and yall should go!
