Dooby's

This Korean-inspired cafe is an excellent place to meet up with friends any time of day—from breakfast all the way through dinner. The shop is known for both sweet (hello, matcha cookies and scones) and savory treats like pork buns, ramen, and Korean BBQ cheesesteaks. Dooby’s works with Pennsylvania-based Passenger Coffee and guests rave about the vanilla lavender and miso caramel lattes. Walk outside along Charles Street and you are greeted by Baltimore’s Washington Monument—which came before the more famous one further south in DC.
