​5 of the Best Coffee Shops in Odenton, Crofton Areas

ODENTON, MD — Need a pick me up to get through the day? Or just to clutch a hot mug of java to thaw out? Get yourself a great cup of coffee.

Here are five of the best coffee shops in the Odenton and Crofton areas, according to Yelp reviews.

The White Rabbit, 1402 Odenton Road, Odenton

Reviewer Carrie W. wrote: "It's a place to get a great cup of coffee, a banana, or other snacky things while you're waiting for the MARC. Very good to know when I have to rush out of the house in the morning and can't get my caffeine fix! Service was really sweet and friendly, too."

Baltimore Coffee & Tea, 1110 Town Center Blvd., Odenton

Commenter Erika W. said, "We frequent here a lot because my husband gets free coffee. Any service member in uniform gets a free coffee or $1 off any latte. I always go with the coffee of the day myself. A 20 oz will run you $2.60 if you were wondering. There are 4 decaf choices, and 4 regular choices."

Zü Coffee, 2638 Chapel Lake Drive, Gambrills

Said reviewer Robert B.: "Coffee is far superior to Starbucks and this location is much better and friendlier than the Annapolis location. Breakfast sandwiches are freshly prepared and a very nice ambiance."

Bean Rush Cafe, 1015 Generals Hwy., Crownsville

Visitor Mike G. commented: "Without question, the best coffee in Maryland...and probably the DMV. AND the staff is more pleasant than any coffee shop I've been to in the world. You will most assuredly enjoy your experience at Bean Rush!"

Bagels ‘n Grinds, 7791 Arundel Mills Blvd., Hanover

Commenter Bruce K. said: "They're very proud of their "New York" filtering system with signs that the water for the bagels and the coffee should make it taste just like the stuff in NYC. I don't know if it does or not, but the bagel was excellent and the coffee was excellent.”
