Davis Pub hit all the marks.
Nachos? Solid. Jalapeños weren’t just a garnish, they came to play.
Crab egg rolls? Crisped to perfection. The kind of bar snack that shuts everyone up for a minute.
Crab imperial baked potato thing? Somehow weird and perfect.
And the grapefruit crush? Citrus-fueled redemption. Balanced, boozy, and bright. That thing could wake the dead.
And then the Sammi sticker drop in the bathroom mirror?
That’s the kind of brand placement Marvel wishes it could pull off.
Davis Pub stays undefeated in the “know what the hell it is” category.
Zero pretense. All punch.
Sammi approves.
Crush secured.
5/5.

Wanted to like this place, and I guess for crab it was good. had crab cakes and fish/chips. The crab was really good. The fish (fried cod) was way over cooked and dry. Cole slaw not very tasty and the fries were very bland.

Came here on a slow Tuesday night but Davis’ Pub still had a strong presence of regulars and other characters. The place is full of history & items on the wall giving you a glimpse into the past. For food, I enjoyed their Blackened Salmon Wrap which was solid. I’ll definitely be back and hope to enjoy a drink with some locals

Spectacular pub. Awesome food, friendly staff, and a great selection of food. The pub tots were our favorite, but our entrees (a pulled pork sandwich and house salad) were also excellent. We live in Virginia, but will DEFINITELY be coming back! Additionally, the nearby area is very cute and nice to sit and enjoy the marina.

Food was fantastic. Service was great. Restaurant is small and seating is tight. Nice neighborhood restaurant. Quite an Annapolis hidden gem.

We decided on a Friday night adventure to try indoor dining with our toddler for the first time. The staff were so kind and helped us navigate through the bar area to a quieter table in the back. Burgers and chicken tenders were excellent, great beer selection, and cozy atmosphere. We will definitely be back and look forward to trying the outdoor tables when it warms up!

This is just a dive bar. I was excited when I heard the description for the crab pretzel being fluffy bread with crab meat on top, but much to my disappointment, this is just soggy bread with cream cheese and too much salt. The three staff members I attempted to communicate with seemed too busy and disconnected overall a horrible waste of time and money.
If you want a real crab experience, there is a much better bar for sailors that is just two blocks to the northwest.

Davis’s Pub is a fantastic spot in Annapolis that you absolutely have to check out! The fish and chips here are hands down some of the best I’ve ever had—crispy, golden batter on the outside and perfectly flaky fish on the inside. The portion size is generous, and the fries are just the right amount of salty and crispy.
The atmosphere is laid-back and welcoming, with a real local charm that makes you feel right at home. The staff is friendly and attentive, making sure you have everything you need to enjoy your meal.
Whether you’re stopping by for a quick bite or settling in for a relaxed evening, Davis’s Pub is the place to be for delicious food and a great time. Highly recommend the fish and chips!

Awesome spot for a couple of beers or some solid bar food. The crab pretzel never disappoints. Wish I lived closer so I could go more often.

Disappointing Experience – Never Even Got to Try the Food or Sit Down!
I’m from out of town and was excited to try this place after seeing online that it was dog-friendly. I brought my dog and planned to sit outside, but when I arrived, things were confusing right from the start. There were no clear signs about where to check in or wait to be seated.
I politely asked a young female waitress outside if I should go in or wait there, but she didn’t greet me or seem friendly at all. She didn’t offer any estimated wait time or direction — just an unwelcoming attitude that really set the tone. There was also nowhere to wait for a table, which made things even more awkward.
What made it worse was that this happened on a WEEKDAY / Thursday around 12:15 PM, not even during a lunch rush or weekend crowd. It was calm, so there’s really no excuse for such poor customer service!
I ended up leaving and going somewhere else, so I can’t comment on the food. After reading other low/one-star reviews, it seems I’m not the only one who’s had issues with rude or unhelpful staff. Hopefully the management addresses this and improves how guests are greeted — and maybe adds some clearer signage for check-in, especially for outdoor seating!
