items I've lived in the National Capital Region for 20+ years. I've always wanted to move to Baltimore and finally did three years ago. Several of my friends live here, and these are some of our favorite spots. I love being so close to all of this activity!

I love Patterson Park. If you're from the Atlanta area, it's similar in size to Piedmont Park. It's a huge park with the playground, dog park, tennis courts, soccer courts, basketball courts, and ever-changing activities throughout the year. You'd l...
Patterson Park
Baltimore Farmers market is one of the largest farmers market in the world. It has tons of vendors where you can get fresh produce, dog snacks and food, incense, perfume, pastries, oysters, fresh meat and eggs, and the list goes on and on. It's every...
Baltimore Farmers' Market
In addition to being just a great park overall, Patterson Park has a great dog park. It has two sections for big & small dogs. The grass is fake (turf) so there's that. But the dogs love the mounds and pool in Summer.

The Rawlings Conservatory is the second oldest glass conservatory in the US!!! It's tucked away in Druid Hill Park. It is free but they request a donation. Something for the family to check out.
Howard Peters Rawlings Conservatory
If you're looking for a nice walk along the water, check the Waterfront Promenade. It's a nice, easy, head-clearing walk or jog. It's nice, especially on a beautiful day!
Baltimore Waterfront Promenade Trail: Canton Waterfront Park to Fells Point
There's something very relaxing about riding a water taxi. You can catch the Harbor Connector to go from Canton to Fells Point and/or Harbor East to the Inner Harbor, etc. There's the Harbor Trolley, Harbor Connector, and Harbor Cruises.
Harbor Connector
Who wouldn't want to experience a helicopter ride? You can choose between experiences with the lowest being priced at $55. It's pretty cool to have the option. The helicopter leaves from Pier 7.

A beautiful outdoor space to picnic among the tulips or whatever seasonal flowers are in bloom.
Sherwood Gardens
Hands down my favorite brewery!…and Baltimore has plenty. I love the whole vibe of the space with unlimited ceiling and the garage door being open. They often have a food truck or guy selling delicious hotdogs out front. Go check it out!
Pickett Brewing Company
This is another great farmers market located in Fells Point. This one takes place on Saturdays so I usually go to this one on Saturdays and the Baltimore Farmers market on Sundays.
Fell's Point Farmers Market
THEEE best ice cream shop in the City!

OMG, this place is like stepping into another world. The food is delicious, even if you've never had Indian food before you'll find something you like. Just ask for a recommendation and they will bring you a dish you'll love!
Royal Taj Restaurant
Hands down the best octopus. This spot is a block down from my house, and when I call in to order, they already know it's me. The Greek dishes are delicious. The tzatziki is so fresh! It's a small restaurant, but the food is amazing.
Karella's Cafe
The Food Market has the best lobster fingers, cream of crab soup, and several other items. And while you're there you'll find many more shops and things to do in Hampden.
The Food Market
If you are a sushi connoisseur like me (ha) this is where you need to be. I kid you not, this is the best sushi in town. Give it a try and let me know what you think.
SUSHIBRUCE YA | Fells Point, Baltimore
This is one of my favorite restaurants! It's on the water next to the Sagamore Distillery at the Baltimore Peninsula. I have several favorite dishes and the servers are outstanding.
Rye Street Tavern | New American Restaurant
This one will cost you a pretty penny, but trust me, it's WORTH IT! The food is divine. You can choose the number of courses you wish to be served. We save this for special occasions, but have been several times.
Charleston Restaurant - Fine Dining in Baltimore
This is a cocktail room that also serves food. But it's a vibe and holds a special place in my heart. It's got swinging chairs out front and the best mushroom toast ever! They make craft cocktails that come with a whole story. You'll love it.
The Bluebird Cocktail Room
This is a great fish House on the water with a vast selection of seafood and beer. This is especially popular during the summer because it has an open air feel to it and you can just sit out with your friends to eat, drink, and you have a great view ...
Nick's Fish House
Arts & Entertainment
Yes, there are still drive-in movie theaters! Bengie's is one of the oldest drive-in movie theaters in the country. It's something different to do and it brings back memories for me.
Bengies Drive-In Theatre
There's so much to see here that you'd have to make several visits to see everything. AND, the installations change regularly. I came for a candlelight concert (which was amazing) and was in awe of the art on display.
Baltimore Museum of Art
If you're up for an orchestra, music, or just something different you can check the schedule at the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra. For example, on the schedule as I type they'll be playing the Jaws soundtrack. Pretty cool.
Baltimore Symphony Orchestra
By now you're probably familiar with x throwing venues. This one is close to my house and I love it because they also have a game called ten pin where you throw a football at bowling pins and you score by getting the green pin.
Urban Axes - Axe Throwing
This spot has a full swing golf simulator. Think Top Golf, but indoors with a simulator, drinks, and a few other games on the simulator.

This is one of those paint & sip places. You can BYOB and snacks. You can do team building events, date night, or even book a private event. You can also pop in and paint on your own.
