With our respective others out of town, it was up to SMILE HON editor and THG contributor WP Tandy and me to check out the highly-regarded Circle Drive-In. Located down the street from Michael's Steak & Lobster House, The Circle is a long-standing, highly-regarded fixture in the Baltimore cheap eats community.
Though the impressive menu offers everything from subs and sandwiches to BBQ and wings, I was in the mood for a burger. And how could I resist the eatery's namesake -- The Circle Burger -- which is a half-pound Angus pattie... wait for it... topped with their signature BBQ and cheese? I couldn't, so I didn't.
The burger hit the spot, though next time I'll probably order it a little more rare. There was just enough BBQ on top to make it sloppy and tangy without becoming a total mess. Cheese fries were good, non-institutional fries with a tub of dunking cheese on the side.
Prices were cheap with two burgers, two orders of fries, a root beer and a milkshake coming to less than $20. Service could've been a little snappier, but since it's early in the season I'll cut them some slack.
