a year ago6June2023 Nice spot along inner harbor for a relaxing view and for kids and families to have fun. I’ve been to inner harbor several times over the years since residing in Maryland and haven’t stopped here until now on one of my many day trips here. There are restrooms to the side of the building. Don’t go in unattended. The police do patrol the area and it is safe.

11 months agoVisited here for the Asian Bite Food Festival. There were a lot of different vendors. The food was delicious i went with a friend i got the fried pork belly and she got the Korean Barbecue Chicken wings.There was a lot of space a lot of people. The only thing was quite a few of the popular food vendors had very long lines. However, they moved fast. I would visit here again. Also, bring cash, or you can use your vemo,zelle, and apple Pay.
