2. B&O American Brasserie

Address: 2 North Charles Street, Baltimore, MD

We also love B&O of the Hotel Monaco. The history of the building mixed with its railroad flare makes it a bar and restaurant gem. Since we are on the important the topic of bourbon, look for the Galavanter. We must recommend this award-winning cocktail.
