Where are the Best Cheap Eats in Baltimore, Maryland?
The Bel-Loc is a favorite diner of ours! When we are in the Towson area, we make it a point to have a meal there…we always seem to make it there for breakfast, which is a good thing because the Bel-Loc has the most awesome raisin french toast! Other goodies include SOS and very fresh orange juice! Prices are decent and the Bel-Loc is a breath of fresh air compared to the some of the “larger” diners in the area (the locals know who I mean) where breakfast goes up on weekends and holidays:(. I love their mugs of coffee!Pros + Very Tidy, Outstanding service, Good ValueCons – , Can be crowded
I work/have lived in Baltimore for years and was asked by an out-of-towner where he should visit while in town. Paper Moon. To me, it is a representative microcosm on the city – shocking, a little trashy, a little scary (depending on what time of nite you show up), filled with ornery characters, both working behind and seated at the counter. Everyone is just trying to make a buck.The food is what it says it is – an attempt at healthy food… which would explain why some of the dishes seem overpriced.As for the atmosphere, the designer is immensely talented, although this place is growing a bit stagnant.Bottom line: Great place to visit, not a great place to frequent.Pros + Free Parking, 24 Hour ServiceCons – Dangerous Neighborhood, Long Waits for 24 hr. Spot
