Drinking and Slurping: Baltimore's Best Oyster Bars |
Ryleigh’s Oyster Bar (36 E. Cross St.; 410-539-2093)
Now that this Federal Hill institution has a second location in Timonium, there’s no excuse not to stop by. The new restaurant and raw bar at 22 Padonia Road (where the old Gibby’s Seafood stood) maintains all the charm of the original location with the added bonus of convenient parking. On Monday from 3 – 10 PM and Tuesday through Friday from 3 – 7 PM, take advantage of the $1 special on Avery’s Pearl, Ryleigh’s house oyster. There’s always a decent selection of beers rotating on draft, and the oysters are sure to satisfy your strongest craving.
