Remember when I was ranting and raving about how great the czbgrs at CVP were? I believe I even said they were THE BEST CHEESEBURGERS IN BALTIMORE. Well, today I am taking it back. Yup. I don’t take this retraction lightly. When I declared the Charles Village CVP the best, I believed it. And now that I am stating the contrary, I am 100% convinced this is the right thing to do.
Why, you may ask? Well, I’ll tell ya. I was able to leave my house last week for a few hours and pursued a cheeseburger ala CVP with cheeseburger expert/colleague/dear friend, Arika C. In the past, this experience has been pleasant, delicious. This time, everything we used to love about this place was out of whack. Both burgers were overcooked, the slaw was sub-par, there were no condiments (NO CONDIMENTS?!) served with the meal, and what they claimed to be Coke, tasted mysteriously like Pepsi. I am not sure what up with this establishment– maybe it was a temporary glitch, a bad day, some 
kind of horrible mistake. Regardless of the cause, I cannot with clear conscience recommend it as Baltimore’s Best a moment longer.
Instead, I would like to offer up an alternative eatery as Baltimore’s Best Cheeseburger….. Kooper’s Tavern in Fells Point. Arika and I have both enjoyed our experiences here. The food is consistent, fresh and cooked to order. Though they do serve Pepsi instead of Coke, at least they admit to it. And slaw, fries and condiments are always present and tasty. In addition to the excellent food experience, the waitstaff has always been friendly and accurate. And good-looking. There you have it. Koopers. And the area can’t be beat for an after burger stroll– what’s more scenic than historic Fells Point? I hope you enjoy a cheeseburger there soon. Go Tuesday…. every Tuesday is 1/2 price burger day all day and night. YEAH!
