Artifact Coffee is a gorgeous place to photograph, both indoors and in the courtyard. It’s perfect for micro weddings and intimate dinners. The beautiful stone and rustic detailing are ideal for a candlelit dinner and photograph beautifully. You can truly feel the care they put into every detail and the way they thoughtfully look after their guests. The space naturally creates memorable moments, and it’s also just a stone’s throw from some of Charm City’s most iconic portrait locations. I would highly recommend Artifact Coffee to anyone looking for a cozy and memorable venue.

Wow this place is so amazing!! The food was UNREAL, we got a grilled cheese and tomato soup (which was to die for) and the Members Only sandwich, with Miso mayo which was unbelievable. The brown butter molasses cookie was one of the best cookies I’ve ever eaten. Not to mention the service - the woman who took our order, Katie, was so welcoming and charming and was such a joy to talk to! Definitely will be coming back! A bmore staple.

Best coffee shop in town. Absolutely lovely staff all very friendly and knowledgeable. Sometimes it’s busy but that’s because it’s so good! I haven’t had a bad thing here in my many visits. Awesome coffee. The Rochelle is my current go to!

As someone who is vegetarian, this place is absolutely wonderful! I was able to find so many options on their menu. This is the first time coming here (as I am not a Baltimore native) and this will certainly not be the last! Highly recommend getting The Rebel Greens if you’re looking for something filling

This is a known hidden spot so on weekends there will be a line and not always an available table. The food & coffee took a while but with the crowd that’s going to happen The staff was friendly even in the rush. The chai isn’t mean for chai lovers, it’s neither spicy nor sweet it’s just bland. The food was good, he had no problems with his, the sandwich was good, was disappointed to find the bug but I guess that was natures endorsement 🤷🏼♀️
