Sip & Bite Restaurant

How it got its name has been lost in the formstone mists of Canton. Opened in 1948, the Sip & Bite became a word-of-mouth sensation after George Vasiliades began ladling out homemade specials to waterfront regulars who knew the value of a buck and the taste of real food.

everything ! from quick eggs and coffee to go, to platters, Greek specialties, with lamb , according to your patience, or lack of it ! they are as considerate, or as tough as you, or as Ravens get !

Mike Reid

Crab cakes were (LARGE) very nice. Filled with jumbo lump, Good prices. Gyro was nice also. Menu is substantial and quite diverse. Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives was on point in reviewing this one!

Get the DDD platter if you want to try what was on the show! Small place so you may have to wait but it's ok! You can pay with CC but tips are cash only so make sure you have enough on you!

The Sip & Bite is a modest little diner with an extremely friendly wait staff and good food. If you want a classic "This is Balmore Hon" style greasy spoon diner experience, this is the place to go.

Hard to find good French toast . They have some. Not great but good. I recommend them though. You might think they're great. Good food and location overall.

If your just coming for the crab cake , get The Eastern Shore breakfast sandwhich . Has bacon and egg on top. Very filling and soo good!

The spanakopita had an interesting flavor, and the crab cake was only okay. Cream of crab soup was pretty good, but I loved the Michael Phelps french toast .

The perfect late night spot & one of the few 24 hour places to eat in Baltimore.

Jimmy Kastner

This diner has a lot of charm. Anything with crab cakes in it is a must.

Known for its crab cakes , get the crab cake & shrimp entree that comes with 2 sides. The mashed potatoes are to DIE FOR! :)

Stephanie Blatt

What a great way to experience true Baltimore! Great breakfast and crab cakes .

Antoine Brown

Every Damn Thing is good except the kitchen sink!!!!!

Bryan Webb

Hercules omelet with tsasiki or Taki's platter. The Greek burger on pita is also the way to go!

Bill Helman

The Greek salad and spanakopita are both awesome. Great omlettes and gyros as well .

Kim Hannah-Prater

I really liked the spanakopita bites . The Sip & Bite omelette was okay, but it probably would have been better with fewer meats.

Gregory Sampson

The food is delicious! They must pay their servers a great hourly rate because this woman doesn't seem to be providing service worth tipping.

nikki austin

Crab cake sandwich is amazing! Also great biscuits and gravy .

Elliott Plack

Try the Maryland Chesapeake Eggs Benedict - Amazing! Crab cakes + two eggs Benedict = excellent!

Melanie Dugan ????

Katie Whitman

The Greek Burger is AMAZING. its also 5$. You will not be disappointed.

Todd Rademacher

Great late nite spot or for breakfast the next day.

Angelica W

Chesapeake Benedict with crab cakes are fabulous

Greg S.

Their famous crab cakes were okay, but the ones I've had at Pappas are better. SnB does a bit too much filler and not enough backfin, then they smash it onto a pancake .

Angelica W

Sweet potato pancakes are sweet, light and fluffy

David Land

Everything

Carolina Escobar

Came here after the bars - the line was out the door and the wait staff wasn't as friendly but was the trip worth the disco fries ? I think so.
