Simply excellent! Faidley's crabcakes are THE BEST crabcakes! Their crabcakes are a "must-have" when in Baltimore! The propietors are amazingly sweet, warm and funny! The customer service is top-notch!

    Yes there is a crab cake heaven and the address is at Faidley's in the Lexington food court. Simple, flavorful, devine.
    Unfortunately, I live out of state or I would frequent there often.You can pay more but you won't get any better.

  • The best crabcakes in US (maybe?). Cheap, fresh, must-try, warm, crunchy and top-notch. We came back twice even the neighborhood is not so great. The crabcakes is so simple, but excellent. Fun fast food that let you eat with stand up and reorder again. Short line and very fast. The decor is so-so, but who eat the decor?

    Very disappointing! We came expecting Maryland's best crab cake. NO WAY! Timbuktu's are much better.

  • Faidley's has arguably the best crabcakes in Baltimore--jam packed with big chunks of lump crab and perfectly seasoned and cooked. It is worth going, but take a local with you if you're from out of town, because Lexington Market is a scary place in a scary neighborhood.
