Waterfront Hotel - Fells Point (Baltimore), MD - Antique Hotels on Waymarking.com

This place remained a hotel until 1955, but it still kept the name. I enjoyed an amazing lunch and a fine ale here on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. The place is just amazing to be inside. There is a pool room in the back with one table. There is a kitchen in the back and an upstairs which seats people for dinner. The menu I found to be affordable, diverse and really interesting. The beer selection was full of desirable micro brews and other interesting selections. In the rear is an historic plaque which explains the history of the building. This building is a contributing structure to the Fells Point Historic District as found on the NRHP.
