Cattlemen's Pride

Iconic crab cakes in Baltimore. Market price: mine was around $24-25. No seats, only standing tables. Given Faidley’s accolades, I expected it to taste much better, but it was bland with only a hint of mustard(?). The idea is to dress the crab minimally, to let the crab be the star of the show, but it failed to draw out the natural sweetness of the crab—perhaps a bit more salt. That said, the price is fair for this amount of jumbo lump crab meat with hardly any filler. It’s an honest business. I wouldn’t make a special trip out of it, but it’s worth trying if you’re in the area.

Faidley's crab cake is an absolute American story! The story of how you can became famous with only one thing/product... You can smell history here, this place is out of this world, such an experience to see and witness this place today! The food is ok, sandwich was nice, bit no more then that. On the other side, prices are to high for this amount of food. 4* is a max rate.

Faidley seafood market is a blast from the past. You’re not gonna sit down and eat in comfort. You walk in and they want you to order right away. You get in line and you have to quickly decide what you want. I chose to walk around and look at everything and then come back to decide. My husband got one crabcake, coleslaw, and a beer. I got the crabcake platter, which came with one crabcake, and two sides. I chose the macaroni seafood salad, and the carrot salad it Was too much food for me. I enjoyed the crabcake and so did my husband, it wasn’t the best crabcake we’ve had but it was good. My husband had to wait a long time to get a beer, they need more staff. I didn’t mind standing while eating, but I could see how some people wouldn’t want to do that.
