David and Dads

This location is closed. They’re moving a few blocks away, and they say it will open in August.

Solid. Good coffee and fantastic muffins (we sampled the blueberry, cranberry, and banana during our stay in Baltimore) in a great location on a nice street. What’s not to love? The waitstaff were very friendly and the prices here were nice too. Travel is hard enough, but a nice coffee spot like David and Dad’s makes it all worthwhile.

Just your basic diner food. nice place for brunch.

Great and cheap food all day. Very friendly personnel. No frills diner. Quick service.

My co-​workers used to go here regularly to get lunch! I usually try to pick from their daily specials menu in order to try something new every time. They also list their specials on their website! I love the great customer service here, how fast the food comes out and the portions! It’s also a great touch that the owner is so personable with guests and you see him working behind the cash register or the counter too.

Such a homey spot! We went on a rainy morning and the staff was so friendly. We got breakfast for two including two coffees for $ 16. What a deal! It was nice to have a home cooked meal while traveling. We are adding this place to our list of places to visit in Baltimore next trip.

As another review mentioned the ordering process is a tad confusing and still had me wondering if I missed something and how they still used the honor system for payment. I loved the down key atmosphere for breakfast and the coffee blend choices. I had the breakfast platter which by no means was fancy. The bacon was cooked well and eggs over easy done well. The highlight was the light but thick buttermilk pancakes that were delicious with rich maple syrup and sitting on top some fresh butter. A good choice for some low key home cooking real breakfast food

Great little place for a quick breakfast. Quick and friendly service. Delicious bagel and coffee!

I have been here for breakfast and lunch and both times I went I was pretty satisfied. This place isn’t too far from work so I usually call my order in before I go. Both times ive been its been a pretty quick pick up process, the hardest part is finding a parking spot depending on the time of day. The area its in is all street parking so I usually have to park and walk a block or two back to the place.
When I ordered breakfast it was a pretty simple french toast/​egg dish so nothing special but it was pretty tasty. I went back for lunch because I remembered how good their coffee was and really was craving some mid morning. This time I got a burger and fries expecting it to just be OK but it was really good! Though they didn’t ask me how I liked my burger cooked it was done perfectly. I even opted for a dessert, this time i tried the banana pudding but I think i may be spoiled to my grandma pudding because theirs didn’t satisfy my craving. Next time I’ll have to try one of their cakes because they all looked so delicious in the display case.

While the ordering process can be a little confusing for a first time customer, the service was excellent! It was wonderful to be able to just get a $ 5 grilled ham and cheese with carrots and a fountain soda. I felt like I was having lunch at my Mom’s house! I brought my friend from France and it was just another example of how welcoming and down to earth Baltimore can be!

I really enjoyed my breakfast platter of pancakes, eggs, and sausage (all for just 4.95!). I was impressed by the large menu selection; they even have smoothies, burgers, grilled cheese, cheesesteak, gyro, and sweets like brownies, cookies, and banana pudding. The buttermilk biscuits looked really good. maybe I’ll get a breakfast sandwich next time.
There are a few seats in the front, and a ton more tables in the back. Order at the front, they’ll bring the food to your seat, and bring the check to the counter to pay at the end. They’re only open for breakfast and lunch, so check the hours.

Great place to get your tasty omelet on. Lots of choices and great prices. The service makes me feel like I’m having breakfast at my awesome aunt’s house, who loves to
spoil me with freshly made coffee, fruit juices, and shakes. I’ll come visit as many times as I can while I’m in Baltimore.

Love the feel of the place. I had the mushroom swiss burger. Burger was decent could have used a little more seasoning but was cooked perfectly. Fries were very fresh and tasted great. Plus the price of 5.95 was very nice. The lasagna was the special and after seeing it I wish I had gotten that. All in all very good food, great atmosphere, and great prices.

Two words — good and cheap!
One word — Go!
If you’re into décor atmosphere etc ummmm, you may be disappointed. HOWEVER, refer to first two comments above…

Don’t ya just love supporting local business? Especially when it’s a family one! After a grueling but satisfying class at Pop Physique, I stopped over to David and Dads across the street for a light meal. I liked the fact that there were several veg options available on the menu in all forms of offered meal selection (wraps, paninis, specialty sandwiches) and they are priced very reasonably! I ordered a powerhouse and paid under $ 5 and it came with chips. Stop in for quick bite if you’re in the area, especially if you just came from a Barre class and need to refuel.

Pretty solid deli with lots of choices and great value. 3.5 for food, bumped up to 4 for the value, and friendly service.
I’ve only been here once and got the sausage and gravy special as well as a coffee. I can’t comment on the other choices unfortunately.
Home fries were well… fried. crispy and browned on the edges, well seasoned. (My pet peeve is under seasoned potatoes).
Sausage, gravy, and biscuits were above average, but nothing super special. But at 5.95, it’s speeeecial.
OVERALL: I would come back to try some of there other breakfast and lunch sandwiches, so many to choose from at a very reasonable price. Coffee isn’t bad either.

Shockingly low-​priced breakfast for this area of town. And quite delicious, at that. We’ve been wanting to come here for some time, but the barrier was that they hadn’t been open on weekends — well, not until now, anyway.
We were pretty hungry this past Saturday morning, and we were going to wait for another place to open for breakfast, but we Unilocaled and saw that D&D’s was open. Yeah, this was on our bucket list, as I recall, so we took a walk up there, and we’re both glad that we did.
I ordered a #3 breakfast special — two eggs, potatoes, sausage patty and toast, while Sweet Husband Mine decided on a short stack of pancakes and bacon. Oh, and coffee. Lots and lots and lots of coffee.
The counter folks were really nice, greeting us as if we were old friends. I immediately felt at home.
Oh, did I mention that the food was delicious? I didn’t?
Our orders were cooked to perfection, just the way we wanted them done. Now, the breakfast itself isn’t really remarkable — it’s eggs and toast and pancakes. Kind of hard to make them stand out, especially. But the coffee was sublime. Oh, man. Try the hazelnut. Sub… lime.
Our breakfast was only 14 dollars for two — now if that’s not a bargain in usually overpriced downtown Baltimore, what is?
We just might have to make David and Dad’s a habit on Saturday mornings from now on. Definitely give this place a shout.
Recommended.

Yum homemade chicken pot pie! I don’t care that it was almost 90 degrees that day. I can never say no to that. Plus rootbeer.
What a gem in the middle of corporate Baltimore. Thank goodness I don’t work there regularly or I’d go to this place far too often! That being said, I wish I was closer so I could try their other options!

OK, so i am definitely coming back to this sweet, lovely deli. Not only did i come in here for a quick smoothy and plan to leave, but then my surgery that I Was supposed to be covering got pushed about…5 hours! I had already checked out of my hotel and i had no where to go. This wonderful café has free high speed wifi (i started watching Orange is the New Black) but no one bothered me or even asked if i was going to buy anything else after about 3 hours! NOT TO MENTION THE ORDERING PROCESS!
This place first will make your food, bring it out to you and then before you leave you pay for your meal, drink or whatever. In the North, this kind of hospitatlity is not seen very often and i was pleasantly surprised and impressed. These things were both the case for my smoothy and three hours later, my lunch. Go here. You will not regret it.
Oh, their food. Amazing, you can taste the fresh ingredients and the «make your own» wraps and sandwiches with a side of baby carrots (if you opt out of pretzels or chips) is great too.

Stopped by for a quick bite.
Got breakfast sandwiches. The first was a biscuit, ham, egg, and cheese which was excellent. It was the biscuit that stood out, it was fluffy and moist. Also got one with a croissant, also good. Would definitely recommend trying any breakfast sandwich with the biscuit.
Also got the home fries. They were good, but they were pretty soft and almost mushy (cannot think of a better way to describe it)
Overall good breakfast experience. Would go back again.
