Crema's Take

Miss Shirley's is an Annapolis institution where the real draw is the full breakfast spread and Southern-style comfort food that keeps locals and tourists equally devoted—expect fried green tomatoes, creative gravy-based dishes, and pastries worth the wait. The vibe is genuinely warm and inviting with plenty of outdoor seating, making it feel like a proper gathering spot rather than a quick caffeine run. Time your visit thoughtfully on weekends since it gets packed, but the convenient downtown location and affordable parking make it worth planning ahead for.

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.

I recently learned that I have an allergy to hybrid wheat, which makes dining out tricky. A lot of places label things as gluten free, yet the flavor or texture takes a hit. This restaurant was a refreshing change. Our server Megan (pretty sure that was her name!) took the time…

Quaint place with a convenient location just past the bridge. There is street and affordable garage parking. Lots of seating but I recommend timing right on weekends as it’s popular. The service was attentive and helpful. Clearly defined dishes so no one accidentally ate…
