  • Inn Details

    A beautifully restored Tavern, Reynolds reflects the working nature and the elegance of the 18th Century. It is the oldest tavern in Annapolis and one of the oldest in the U.S. We have 3 guestrooms all en-suite and luxuriously appointed, which offer a unique atmosphere just steps away from the Capital Building. Whatever your tastes the Tavern has something to offer you. Sly Fox Pub & Restaurant in the cellar gives you a flavor of what a pub was like over 250 years ago. We have casual dining and alfresco dining in the courtyard. Reynolds Tea Room has lunch, English afternoon tea and fine dining in the evening. We also offer special packages if you are celebrating a special occasion, or taking a well deserved "break". Ask us about our weekend packages that include Romantic Dinners, Champagne upon arrival - or even an in-room Massage!

    We wanted to get away overnight for our 6th anniversary. We chose the Reynolds Tavern after looking online for a B&B in Annapolis. The suite was gorgeous. The only issue was the noise from the bar (with band) outside our window.

    The BEST!

    My mom and I visited Annapolis for the wedding of a dear friend and wanted to enjoy a fun B&B in Annapolis (we'd never been before). WOW. Wes greeted us and carried our bags to our beautiful room that had chilled sparkling water and beautiful decor. Reynolds Tavern is so conveniently located to the main strip of Annapolis and just 10 minutes from the water. There is also a darling coffee shop/wine bar around the corner. Our room felt like we were staying at a friend's home- so comfy and charming but with all the amenities of a 5-star hotel, too. So that was all superb, but then BREAKFAST SIMPLY BLEW US AWAY! We wandered down to a quiet dining room (with Glenn Miller and the Mills Brothers serenading us) and were greeted by beautiful Marilyn who brought us coffee and orange juice and then let us know that we would be starting with a fruit plate (which was like dessert! delicious strawberries with fresh whipped/sweet cream) followed by crab benedict CRAB BENEDICT?!- YUM! Marilyn also cheerfully answered our questions about the history of the Inn- what a fun story. If you want a cozy stay in charming Annapolis but also want to be pampered, go to Reynolds Tavern!

    Not really a bed and breakfast...

    Let me begin by saying this establishment is not really a B&B. It's a restaurant/tavern/tea room with 3 bedrooms on the 2nd floor. The focus is most definitely on the tea room. My party of 4 arrived on a rainy afternoon and the restaurant was very busy. There is no separate entrance for the B&B, so you are entering with the restaurant patrons into a small foyer area. When I had called to make arrangements, I spoke with a lovely woman on the phone. I explained that the shower was at 3:00 so we were hoping to be able to get into our rooms a little early. She said that would not be a problem as long as the rooms were ready. Needless to say, it was a problem. We were told the rooms would not be available until 3:00. Now understand, there are only 3 rooms. How long could it possibly take to clean them? This was 12:30. As it was pouring rain, we really did not know what to do or where to go and the owner offered no suggestions. After standing awkwardly in the foyer for about 15 minutes, we discovered a cozy little pub below the tavern. Why didn't the owner suggest this as a place to wait while the rooms were being readied I'll never understand. We had a lovely lunch and I returned upstairs around 2:30. Owner said we could have our rooms at 2:45. Came back up at 2:45 and was told we could not get in until 3:00! At this point I felt as though the owner was simply being petty. We were finally able to get into our room at 2:55 which left us with 5 minutes to get ready for the bridal shower. The next morning(around 9:00), not a cup of coffee or a live person, to be found anywhere. I had to walk to the Starbucks around the corner. There are so many reviews here praising the owners for their hospitality and helpfulness, I can't understand it. Perhaps we just caught them on a bad weekend? I'm not really sure. But if you're a frequent B & B guest I don't think you'll find Reynolds Tavern(the name should have been a clue) to be what you're accustomed to.

    wonderfully romantic weekend and delicous cuisine too!

    My husband surprised me with a Valentine's Day getaway to Reynolds Tavern in Annapolis. What a perfect place to feel at home! Reynolds Tavern has it all... Lovely innkeepers Wes and Marilyn float around offering the hospitality that makes an inn memorable and are both really interesting to talk to! Reynolds is one of the original buildings in historic Annapolis (1747) so everything from the house to the furnishings to the basement tavern give you a sense of the history there. Gourmet breakfasts each morning provide cozy privacy in the dining room which isn't open to the public until lunch. The chef's menu is full of a variety of scrumptious offerings for lunch and dinner (the Valentine's Day prix fixe was incredible). Afternoon tea is delightful and very filling yet inexpensive - a great idea for showers, luncheons and leisurely social time. And being within a short walk of everything in Annapolis's historic district is a treat - plenty of wonderful restaurants, shops and local ice cream! We stayed in the Jefferson Suite - huge, plush and thoroughly modern with an authentic sense of history. The tavern downstairs (separate entrance and no disturbance inside the inn) is fun and even had live music one of the nights we were there. Highly recommend this found treasure!
