Leeward Market — Restaurant in Annapolis

I’m not sure it’s possible to fully enumerate all the wonderful elements of Leeward Market.

This location is such a hub for community. Every time I come in, Michelle or Jeannie is having a deep, meaningful conversation with a regular (while taking orders and keeping the line moving, to boot). The place is teeming with local presence—there are books by local authors and pastries by local bakers all on display; it feels like a real salmagundi of Eastport.

I raised my rating to 4 stars, which is the highest I'll give a restaurant unless it's comparable to The Springs in Berkshire County, MA, or The Three Thieves in Colo....

We’ve had breakfast here a few times, and this was our first time in for lunch. Fiancé and I split two sandwiches. One was a chicken cheesesteak, which isn’t exactly a standard chicken cheesesteak, but was very good. The owner was extremely friendly and attentive.
