Big Bad Wolf's House of BBQ

A simple sit-down BBQ joint, offering ribs, pulled pork, brisket, etc. of different regional styles, as well as some real mouth-watering Eastern Shore BBQ chicken. Aside from the chicken, the consensus standouts would be the signature Big Bad Wolf sandwich, the pork ribs, baked beans, and just about any of those sauces.

Lost in the 50s Diner
It's a new diner (occupying the space formerly known as the Golden Key, a venerable grease institution), but serves a big side of nostalgia and 1950s kitsch. Photos of Hamilton in the 50s dominate the walls, and seating is in cozy booths with individual jukebox machines. There are plans to expand into dinner, but for now spoons are greasy only for breakfast and lunch.

Shamrock Inn
Given a nod in Esquire Magazine's best 150 bars in America (sharing the distinction with only one other Maryland bar, the Brewer's Art in Midtown), this is a good Bawlmer biker bar to get your teeth knocked down your throat by a big tattooed broad. Or just to generally have a very colorful, entertaining evening (don't misunderstand, the place is absolutely accepting of newcomers of any stripes). It is also a great place for live rock music. John Waters loves the place.

Shockers Smoke Shop
This is basically a high end "head shop," where you'll find glass blowers actually creating bongs in shop. Custom glass pipes of all sorts can be commissioned at the shop. Plenty of other, ahem, paraphernalia, but expect it to be a bit more pricey than usual.
