Atomic Books

Not just a book store, but also a bar which hosts stand-up comedians and karaoke nights, among many other events. It is also the place in which movie director John Waters picks up his fans' mail. Whether you're looking for an art book, a novel or a comic book, you can either give a call and see if it's available right now for pick up, or have it sent to you.

Shopping

Whether you prefer high-end boutiques, large modern malls, flea markets or just browsing, you will find lots of shopping opportunities in Baltimore. The Inner Harbor houses many familiar national retailers, while some of the older neighborhoods like Mount Vernon and Fell's Point are home to some fine boutiques and specialty stores. There are several great choices for antique-lovers at Antique Row, an entire block of historic antique stores. Perhaps the most distinctive shopping options are the public markets. Lexington Market, founded in 1782, is the city's oldest, but the Broadway Market in Fell's Point and the Cross Street Market in Federal Hill also offer many unique offerings and handmade gifts.
