My other article detailed a number of attractions to enjoy while in Annapolis<\/a>, and this one will keep you well fed, and housed in luxury.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re hungry:<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Naval Academy<\/strong><\/h2>\n

While touring the Naval Academy, if the hungers hit, you\u2019ve got a few choices. The Naval Academy Club offers fine dining at lunchtime for all visitors (Monday through Friday only.)\u00a0 For more casual (family) dining, think about the Drydock Restaurant in the lower level of Dahlgren Hall.\u00a0 Good looking pizza and a host of bar food will keep the family happy until the next meal.<\/p>\n

Annapolis Ice Cream Company<\/strong><\/h2>\n

I never had ice cream I could roll up on my spoon like this before.\u00a0 A totally unique ice cream experience, but as much fun as that was, the taste was even better.\u00a0 I had Salted Caramel that was out of this word. Butter Pecan with brown sugar and Raspberry Chocolate Chip also looked amazing.<\/p>\n

Great place for kids.\u00a0 They let them all decorate spoons and then display gazillions on their walls, all indexed and cataloged.<\/p>\n

The Boatyard Bar & Grill<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Boatyard has been a favorite in the Annapolis area since opening in 2001.\u00a0 Whether you own a sailboat or just love watching them sail, you\u2019ll feel right at home in this nautically inspired restaurant along restaurant row. Part restaurant and part nautical museum, you won\u2019t run out of paintings and artifacts to admire while you eat.<\/p>\n

From their Finley\u2019s Fantabulous Fish Tacos to their amazing Smith Island cake (the official Maryland State dessert), you\u2019ll find a huge menu to satisfy all appetites.<\/p>\n

Chick & Ruth\u2019s Delly<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Every morning at 8:30 a.m., owner Ted Levitt stops everything in this bustling Annapolis eatery. With Ted on the microphone, everyone stands and recites the Pledge of Allegiance. 60 seconds later, it\u2019s back to breakfast. Oh, and their signature Seasoned Crab Omelets are huge and delicious. If that doesn\u2019t fill you, try their 6 pound milk shake\u2026seriously, it\u2019s the largest milkshake in the world.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n

All their sandwiches are made on homemade rye.\u00a0 Their seafood club sandwich comes with a jumbo lump crab cake and shrimp salad. Anything I saw looked awesome.<\/p>\n

Ready to relax?<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Loews Annapolis Hotel<\/strong><\/h2>\n

From the pillow top mattress to the luxurious terry bath robes, Loews Annapolis<\/a> place speaks comfort. They\u2019ve just completed a two-year renovation of the entire facility and you\u2019d think this is a brand new building.\u00a0 The rooms and lobbies are all in excellent shape.<\/p>\n

My room (351) was spacious and well appointed.\u00a0 The desk was a decent size (30×60) with good lighting, four desktop 110v outlets and one USB charging port. The room had an abundant Keurig coffee setup in addition to a mini fridge below the 48-inch+ flat-screen TV. (Bring your own Keurig K-cups. My only complaint was the coffee brand they supplied \u2013 Diedrich Coffee was really substandard to my taste buds.)<\/p>\n

Deep wide dresser drawers supplemented some nice open shelving below the two night tables.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t
<\/div>
<\/div>
<\/div>
<\/div>
<\/div>
<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n

Mine was a king room and the bed was extremely comfortable (it keeps calling me and I\u2019m doing the best I can to resist.)<\/p>\n

The room is simply and tastefully done in a nautical palette of blues, ivories and tans. White crown mold accents the ceiling line and the walls are done in an attractive stucco finish. Wonderful black and white photos are matted and framed in the bedroom and bath.<\/p>\n

The bathroom is very comfortable, yet extremely well appointed.\u00a0 A bowed curtain rod with split curtains looks nice, but keeps all your shower water in the tub where it belongs. The bow in the rod makes a large bath feel even roomier. A Speakman shower head lets you concentrate the water flow to massage strength if you\u2019ve got a sore back. A pull out, magnifying mirror lets you find those slight imperfections after shaving. Even though this was not a \u201chandicapped\u201d room, most seniors will enjoy the low step-in height when stepping into the tub.<\/p>\n

Back in April when I visited, Loews Hotel chain was having a National Grilled Cheese Month feature at each of their hotels. Annapolis called their creation \u201cIt\u2019s Better by the Bay\u201d and it included jumbo lump crabmeat, crab dip, cheddar cheese, asparagus, apple bacon and was served on brioche.\u00a0 It came with large fries and was marvelous.\u00a0 Kudos to the chef at WEST, Bar and Grill.<\/p>\n

\"Loews<\/a><\/p>\n

For those of you with dogs, remember that Loews loves pets.\u00a0 Your dog will get their own water bowl at check in and there\u2019s a dog exercise area just outside. On the last Friday of the month, check out their \u201cCanines and Cocktails\u201d events, with proceeds going to help various shelters and rescues.<\/p>\n

While everyone seems to get out and jog in Annapolis, if you\u2019re an inside exerciser, this place is for you. They have one of the best equipped exercise rooms I\u2019ve ever seen at a hotel with multiple machines for all the popular routines.<\/p>\n
