Hanover Restaurant Guide

This is a must stop for crab cakes and crab stuffed flounder when we come to Maryland to visit our daughter and son-in -law. The food is alway great! The service is always top notch!

A friend had been raving about the crab cakes for a while and my husband couldn't wait to try them. Originally, we dined at Timbuktu in November. On our first visit my husband had the crab cakes and I had the stuffed shrimp. While I enjoyed the stuffed shrimp my husband could not get enough of the crab cakes. We've been back several times since November.

My wife and I are from NJ we frequently come to Balt, and wanted to try this restaurant, on another bartenders recommendation. Any how, we found the bartenders very rude and inattentive they dressed more like they should be in a sports bar, not a fine dinning restaurant. We had to wait almost 15 minutes before they even took our drink order, and getting a second drink was difficult. We enjoyed our wings but the service so poor we left. we won't be back again.

High prices, horrible food. The waiting area smelled like urine. The mashed potatoes were reconstituted (fake) despite top-shelf proces (mostly $30-plus). Got food poisoning from eating bad salmon, still sick after five days. Avoid this place like the plague.

After hearing about Timbuktu's crabcakes for more than two years, I knew I had to experience them for myself and needless to say, they more than exceeded my expectations, both times. The food is excellent and at very reasonable prices. The waiters/waitresses demonstrate great customer service as well. I was, however, thrown off by the look and feel of the place. The old website gave me the impression that it would be a classy restaurant, suggesting that customers make reservations and even stating a dress code. We quickly found out that we could have worn sweats and sneakers and fit right in, that was disappointing. It just seems the name "Old Anchor Inn" would be more suitable, then you wouldn't have such high expectations. I guess you don't always have to dress up to have a good seafood meal. All in all, I will definitely visit them again!

Great food, but it took forever to get it...My wife and I will try it one more time to see if it was just a bad night for them...Will let you know...
