Fells Point: Taste of Chesapeake By Mary O'Boyle

Located one mile from Baltimore's Inner Harbor, Fells Point is a historic waterfront location known for its trendy pubs, taverns, oyster houses, and nautical character.

Visit Baltimore notes that the area remains unchanged since its founding; charming 18th and 19th century homes line the cobblestone streets (Source: www.baltimore.org).

While Fells Point is flooded with historical attractions, shopping, and nightlife hotspots, the Maryland culture really shines through in its restaurants.

Fells Point is home to the richest of Maryland's Chesapeake Bay cuisine for any price range. Casual pubs serve oysters on the half shell and upscale spots serve fresh seafood.
