Annabel Lee Tavern

Annabel Lee Tavern
601 South Clinton Street, corner of Fleet.

Open 4pm - dinner only

Not new to the Canton scene by any stretch. In fact if you want to dine in- call ahead and make a reservations, few days in advance for weekends - possibly a few hours on week days because seats are few and far between. Warm and cozy. Not pretentious. Great local beer selection - yes, of course featuring as many Brewer's Art beers as possible as well as other micro brews. I was thrilled to see another place selling $5 glasses of sparkling!



Menu does change and the list of nightly specials is shocking. Add about 8 additional items. Don't be shocked to see many revolving around Crab meat. 

Some of the top items to try:

Any sandwich is served with amazing blue cheese cole slaw and sweet potato fries - you can upgrade to Duck Fat fried fries but the Cajun spiced, maple glazed sweet potato fries are addictive sweet heat!!!


Crab Cake Sandwich

Grilled Ahi Tuna Panini (Beware the flat bread called focaccia has cheddar cheese baked onto it underneath and is cold not hot?)

Roasted Orange Roughy Tacos (2) 


Rosemary Beef Tenderloin Gyro


Special - Kobe taco beef on top Nachos

Lots of Booze News- Beer & Wine!

Love Mahaffey's Pub?

Think we all know the answer to that question! YES! Owner Wayne is rounding out his business venture with the opening of Bistro Rx . Look out Canton and Upper Fells residents, Butcher's Hill is getting its own wine bar that serves food.

It will open next week on Thursday, 10/7. 

No longer do you need to hit up the crowded square - though we appreciate Helen's Garden!
No more grabbing just a drink at Chesapeake in the Can Co. Lets be honest, Chesapeake is really a retail wine store which serves cheese and some tiny pizzas. Great select and knowledgeable staff but it is not the same as having wines paired with several course. That is not to say Bistro Rx will be pretentious.  For those that know Wayne personally, I think you will agree given his hard work ethic and personality Bistro Rx will be a huge success. If Mahaffeys is any example of how folks take their beer serious and not themselves. This neighborhood will embrace Bistro Rx quickly.

Located at 2901 E Baltimore St Baltimore, MD 21224-1343

Please get out next week and help Wayne kick off the grand opening with a bang.
Curious about the name- building used to be a pharmacy long long ago....i.e. Rx.

One can keep up with Mahaffeys pub or bistrorx on twitter.
