Davis' Pub

Felt very welcome here!  Thanks to all the locals hanging out day in, day out at this spot..  They had nice food, alright selection of beers but most importantly good company!  

This is a neighborhood joint unlike the rest of the bars in the area that cater mostly to tourists.. Lucky to find this spot!

One of my favorite places on earth. Local Annapolis all the way. Better than average pub food. Buffalo chicken strips are really good. Crab balls and cakes are good too. Check it out but don't tell too many tourists about it!

I was in the mood for a bar with good food and my Yelp Mobile App demanded that I go here.  Over 80 reviews and a solid 4 stars sounded great to me.

Some of the reviews mentioned that parking was tough.  It was a beautiful day so I parked about three blocks away and enjoyed a pleasant walk.  That was a smart move.

I walked in the door and smiled because this place has the great neighborhood bar feel.  It's hard to describe but it's a combination of a slightly quirky atmosphere and a bunch of happy patrons eating and drinking.  It doesn't matter if you're a regular or not.  Everyone is made to feel welcome.  I can see why this place has been visited by DINERS, DRIVE INS & DIVES.

I'm a sucker for a good dish of gumbo so my eyes were immediately drawn to that menu entry. Chicken & Sausage Gumbo served over rice for $9.95 sounded perfect.  I was completely and utterly wrong.  It was not perfect.  It was stunning, and amazing, and extraordinary and earth shatteringly delicious!  It was the best gumbo I have ever had and I've tried some fantastic versions in New Orleans. It was packed with chicken and sausage!   I embarrassed myself with my moans of ecstasy.  The bartender told me not to worry as that happens often when folks taste this dish.  A word of warning; this dish packs some heat so expect your tongue to tingle a bit.

If I get within 50 miles of Annapolis again, this will be the first place I'll visit.
