Vaccaro's
The most famous place in Little Italy, and one of the most famous eateries in Baltimore, Vaccaro's is a great place to pick for dessert (and Baltimoreans love to take out-of-town guests here). The Italian pastries are fantastic, the ice cream decadent, and the sandwiches are actually really great too. All that, and it's cheap! If you are here at prime time, expect a wait and no seats.

Miss Shirley's Cafe
A sunny little diner-esque eatery where you won't have trouble filling up on hearty Southern/Mid-Atlantic breakfasts and lunches. The menu is quite long, so anyone will find something they like.

Carroll Mansion and Phoenix Shot Tower
Old Baltimore Shot Tower
This is one of the more intriguing of the lesser-known historical attractions in the city. The Carrol Mansion was home to writer Charles Carroll, who was both the last living signer of the Declaration of Independence, and its only Catholic signer. Following his death, the mansion led a colorful life as a saloon, immigrant tenement, vocational school, and recreation center. The nearby Phoenix Shot Tower was built in 1828, and for eighteen years remained the tallest structure in the country.
Sat-Sun noon-4PM; tours of the tower begin at 4PM promptly from the museum$5/$4
