Dan's TR on DD

Mochjas TR

DDF DO Planning Thread

Seven Mile Market - supposedly the largest kosher supermarket in the country.

Market Maven (formerly Seasons) - great prices for meat and chicken, also good place for shabbos food


Hotels:
Only 1 Close and decent hotel to Jewish area (but not quite walking distance) is this Hilton Doubletree

Airbnb in the frum community:
Eruv Inn
Edelweiss - Located about 15 minutes from the frum community, practically next door to Ateres Elka wedding hall

Otherwise, there are a number of nice hotels downtown (which is also the inner harbor area) and near BWI airport. There are no shuls in the downtown area with regular minyanim, aside from Mincha minyanim in various offices.

I see some users mentioned a few hotels that are in the Pikesville area, but no one mentioned the Mt. Washington conference hotel, it seems to be within the "Eruv". Does anybody have any info regarding this place? i'm planing to stay there for a shabbos in the near future.
Also what would be the closest shul, within walking distance?

No info about the hotel, and it's definitely on the border of the Eruv, if it's even inside it.  The closest shuls are at least a 25 minute walk.

Rabbi Naiman's on the corner of Deancroft and Smith
There's a house minyan/shul in the Beazer community on either Clarington or Pebble Brook
Rabbi Seidman's and the Rebbe's/Eichenstein's are a just a bit further.
And Chabad is only a bit further than those; probably a little over half an hour.

Hi,
Looking to come to Baltimore for Yankees-Orioles on 9/4 and stay overnight and do things in the Harbor area.

1. Are there any shuls/kosher meat places near the Harbor area (walking distance/~$10 Uber ride)?
2. If not, what's the closest neighborhood to the Harbor area that meets the above criteria?

Sorry nothing close to the harbor. If you want to be close to shuls and restaurants your best bet is the doubletree by hilton in pikesville. The sheraton in towson is not terribly far either.

Lol.  28 years here or so.

The Van Gough Cafe is probably about a $10 uber ride from the Harbor.  No shuls without coming up into the frum area.

My vote is still the Billy Goat Trail. Unless you'd rather do museums and stuff :(
For more info see the posts right after my link.

I am actually hiking the Billy Goat Trail this week (probably on Sunday) and will be in the Silver Spring area for Shabbos and into next week.
