About this business

There is an informal tradition among Baltimore waitresses to address customers as 'Hon' (pronounced to rhyme with 'bun.') Over the years, the term has come to symbolize the town's casual hospitality` and as such, it suits this friendly café perfectly. Located in Hampden, it has the ambiance of a suburban kitchen circa 1955, and the menu fits the décor just right.

After watching the Kitchen nightmares episode of Cafe hon and being in Baltimore, I decided to check out Cafe hon to see what's the hype is about. The host was very outgoing, despite the slightly slow service from my waitress. Which the waitresses service was fair. The hampden burger was great. It came right out of the oven, served fresh with decent flavor in every bite, which was a great improvement that Chef Ramsay imposed in that cafe. The gift shop was great too with all their variety. I would definitely still come back ... read more

Besides the hour wait for a hamburger and a pulled pork sandwich, it was good and I can say I’ve been there. 

Business response:

Thanks for your patience, Jason. The holidays can be nutty!

The Reuben sandwich I had was excellent but it took over 25 minutes to get it served after I ordered it. My husband’s Hamburger also was very good. Kitchen very slow. The place was not crowded when we came in. We were the only people getting served. Another patron came in, had a glass of wine and then ordered a shrimp salad sandwich. It was over 25 minutes after she ordered it when she told them to wrap it up, she had to leave. The place still was not busy. No excuse for that. You can certainly pile some shrimp salad on some... read more
