Bo Brooks Restaurant   

After 35 years on Belair Road, Bo Brooks relocated in June 2000 to spacious new digs in the revitalized Canton area. Its location in the Baltimore Marine Center allows you to take advantage of waterfront dining with perfect sunset views, both inside and outside. A floating pier has seating capacity for 200 and is an island for themed parties and an open-air bar during summer. Bo Brooks is for serious crab eaters who want the crustaceans dumped right on the table and don't mind dropping the broken shells in buckets on the floor. Options for those who don't partake in crab feasting are limited to sandwiches, including tuna, chicken and jumbo lump crab cake, and other seafood items like shrimp, calamari, oysters and clams. As a classic crab house, Bo Brooks maintains the importance of a neighborhood feel and delivers hot, big blue crabs full of sweet steamed meat. Phone ahead to check out the prices and sizes for the day. To avoid long lines try to arrive before 6PM or after 8PM. -- Denise Iacangelo
