Gambrills is currently undergoing some big changes as of late.  First there came The Village at Waugh Chapel Shopping Center.  Now there is the Waugh Chapel Town Center being developed (which brings Wegman's to this neck of the woods!  Yyeeesssss!).  Not really much else around here, so you might as well get your shopping done, and then knock off for the rest of the day with some dinner and drinks.  Which brings us to the Four Seasons Grill -- an eclectic fusion of Mediterranean and American cuisine.  They've been around since 2006, and always seem to be packed.  So are they worth visiting for crab cakes?  Let's find out!

Freddies in Bel Air has a striking resemblance to Dead Freddies in Ocean City.  Both have pirate theming, the logo is the same, and both have a pirate ship for the kiddies to play on.  But this Freddie isn't so dead.  Connection theories aside, the fact of the matter is:  you're not "downy ocean, hon!"  Nope.  You're in Bel Air.  But just because you can't make the trek across the Bay Bridge doesn't mean that you still don't have a hankering for a crab cake.  Luckily,  Freddie has your back (along with a fairly large outside patio area).  So does Freddie deliver on his crab cakes?  Or does this menu item need to walk the plank?  Ahoy, maties!  Come aboard, if you dare, and set sail for the land of crab cake reviews!  Aaarrr!!!

Ah, the infamous G&M.  You can't start any crab cake discussion without any mention of them, most often being pitted against Faidley's.  G&M has been around since 1972, churning out their crab cakes to high praises and accolades ever since.  The CCR has personally been eating G&M for years.  So in the great crab cake war, how does G&M stand out amongst the others?  Click on through to find out!

Taking fresh, available ingredients and making them into an unexpected, unique dish. Sounds fancy, huh? What if we told you that it's from what has been described as an 'upscale diner' that also has a full bar and offers baked goods and desserts? Enter Garry's Grill. Since 1991, Garry's Grill has been delighting locals with their seasonal menu, as well as taking their cuisine on the road with their catering business. Garry may have retired and headed south, but the restaurant lives on. Were their crab cakes as worthy as their other menu offerings? Read on to find out!

The Baltimore Marriott Waterfront has to be one of the most convenient locations for a hotel around the Inner Harbor.  Located in Harbor East, it is centrally located for guests to walk as far as Canton or Federal Hill in either direction without the need to use public transportation (although if it's a hot day, you may want to take the Circulator, especially if you're looking to go up around Mount Vernon/Charles Village).  With all that there is to see and do in the area, one might scoff at eating in the hotel.  And in our opinion, we'd recommend venturing out and experiencing the true B'more crab establishments.  But if the weather isn't cooperating, or you've already been out and about (that walk from Federal Hill to Canton can be brutal to the uninitiated!), then you might want to consider staying in.  There are other seafood options in Harbor East, so is it worth hanging out at the Marriott, or should you go elsewhere?  Follow along and find out!
