Miss Shirley's Cafe, Inner Harbor

I am so glad that I tried this restaurant! I was concerned about the 45 minute wait time but it was worth it. I got the gravy train skillet, the layers of flavor were unreal. The chicken was cooked perfect, the collared greens were seasoned well, the grits were amazing and the biscuit and gravy tasted awesome. My server was good, she checked on us often. She also went out of her way to make the drink I wanted... I appreciate that kind of service.

I gotta say...I came here for the first time in 2014 on a road trip with my girls. We found this place by accident. The food was so good that I never forgot it! So needless to say, when I decided to take a road trip back to B-more, Miss Shirley's was on the top of my list of places to dine. I came to visit some good friends who don't live too far from this place but they never dined here. At the end of our dining experience, they kept thanking me for introducing them to this place... that's how good everything was!!!!

Best brunch in the area, hand down. We went two days in a row so we could taste more items on the menu. The pimento biscuits are right on the money. Coconut cream stuffed french toast was unbelievable. It was huge and so delicious. The shrimp and grits with fried green tomatoes are worth a revisit for sure. I wish this place was in my area.

This was a great experience overall. This was in a very convenient location right near our hotel. This is a popular place so plan accordingly with a small wait (about 20 minutes for us). The staff were very friendly and had the perfect amount of stops at the table. We also had a manager/supervisor stop by and check on us. The food was great as well. I had the breakfast tacos, which was a great portion. My wife had the coconut creme stuffed French toast. She did say they tasted great but were a bit sweet. The portion size for that is BIG, so plan to share! Overall I would recommend a stop if you have time!

This was truly a great experience for brunch. I went alone, and everyone had a 45-minute wait time. It was a nice day out, so that helped make the time go by. When I was seated, I got a seat on the patio, I would have rather sat inside, but I was seated nonetheless. I ordered my food and drinks at the same time. They came out shortly after and I really enjoyed my meal. I will definitely be back to try more off the menu.

We usually have to budget on at least 1 splurge meal when we travel. Crab cakes are usually my splurge meal, but Miss Shirley's required my breakfast-loving self to budget for 2 splurge meals. One of my favorite breakfast spots EVER. Quality food that's prepared very well. Our server, Tory, was great and very friendly. Nice atmosphere. The Playoff Pancakes were so tasty.

Tasty! More food than we needed. Service was great. They definitely want to get you in and out. We went Sunday, early morning. As we walked out the restaurant, the crowd was insane! I could only imagine how long people wait to eat here. Table for two was a walk in and no wait. Larger tables will definitely be a wait. Go early!

We had a late breakfast here. What an amazing place!!! If you don't mind the extra calories, have an extra pancake. The omelette was amazing, the hash browns were delicious (hybrid of typical one piece hash and home fries), and the pancakes were out of this world! I also liked that they had a freshly squeezed juice unlike other places.

Thoroughly spectacular. I enjoyed a breakfast meal at this fabulous establishment while I was in town for a business trip and my god I have to say it’s probably the best breakfast I’ve ever had in my entire life. I got the Cuban and I had thought the BBQ might be too much but it was JUST what the sandwich needed! Bursting with flavor and gigantic portions. I took more than half of the sandwich with me to go. The strawberry lemonade is the perfect mix of both as well - not too sweet or tart! 100% will return to this lovely place if I’m ever back in town! Great service by Gerald, too!
