Where I Go Out

Tilghman Island crab pot

Woodberry Kitchen

$$$, Happy Hour, Outdoor Seating, Modern, Full Bar, New American, Woodberry

"The Tilghman Island crab pot and vegetable flatbread at Woodberry Kitchen are both worth the drive to Baltimore. Woodberry Kitchen is one of the most exciting restaurants in the mid-Atlantic right now—very fresh, very seasonal, very local."
