Encatada is truly a hidden treasure. Because it's nestled in the American Visionary Art Museum, it's a pretty well kept secret. The outdoor seating is one of my favorite spots to enjoy the view and watch what's going on around the city.

3 Bean Coffee
209 Key HwySightseeing
This is my favorite spot to run in the city. Minus a few tricky unmarked parts, it's an unobstructed 8 mile run along the Baltimore waterfront - no stopping for cars and traffic! Beautiful views of the city from all angles. If you're looking for a leisurely stroll, I suggest walking along the promenade through the Inner Harbor to Fells Point.

Drinks & Nightlife
This place captures the quirkiness and charm or Baltimore. Order the charcuterie and a sandwich to split - trust me! This place doesn't have a full kitchen, but what it lacks in an extensive menu it makes up for in delicious sandwiches and not so small plates. Jeff, the owner is a gem of a human, and often will give you free samples, especially his delicious bread pudding. Nosh on free popcorn and licquorice while you wait.
