Miss Shirley's Cafe, Southern breakfast restaurant in Annapolis, United States.
Miss Shirley's Cafe is a breakfast and lunch restaurant in Annapolis, Maryland, built around Southern cooking and ingredients from the Chesapeake Bay region. The menu ranges from classic egg dishes and biscuits to crab-centered plates and seafood-forward morning fare.
The cafe was founded on the idea of bringing Southern breakfast cooking together with the seafood traditions of the Chesapeake Bay, which have shaped the way Maryland eats for centuries. That pairing became the core of what the restaurant offers and has stayed consistent since it opened.
The menu reflects how deeply Maryland cooking leans on seafood, mixing Southern breakfast traditions with shellfish and fish from local waters. Dishes like crab eggs Benedict or shrimp and grits show how naturally the two come together on a morning plate.
The restaurant serves only breakfast and lunch, so plan your visit for the morning or early afternoon. Weekends tend to draw more visitors, so arriving early in the day usually means a shorter wait for a table.
Some of the most popular dishes on the menu, such as Coconut Cream French Toast and Buffalo Shrimp Deviled Eggs, pair ingredients that most people would never think to put together at breakfast. These combinations are not novelties but established favorites that regulars return for specifically.
