Located in the Baltimore Museum of Art, Gertrude’s has been a neighborhood staple for more than 20 years.

Lauded by Food & Wine, Travel & Leisure, the Washington Post, Edible DC, The Baltimore Sun, and a multi-year winner of Baltimore Magazine’s “Best of Baltimore”, Gertrude’s serves locally sourced farm-fresh food that preserves Chesapeake culinary traditions. Situated within the Baltimore Museum of Art, the main dining room overlooks a sculpture garden featuring works by Alexander Calder, Isamu Noguchi, and Auguste Rodin. Founded by John Shields and John Gilligan in 1998, the restaurant was on the vanguard of the farm-to-table movement and now has decades-long relationships with Maryland farms and fisheries. The atmosphere and the warm hospitality make it the perfect setting for weddings, graduations, and other life milestones.
