Crave, the Little Italy dessert shop that rebranded from Waffle-Licious in 2025, is getting ready to jump the city line. The neighborhood favorite is planning a second location in Baltimore County, a move that would take its sugar rush beyond its familiar rowhouse block. The expansion was first reported on Wednesday by Baltimore Business Journal.
BizJournal: Second Crave Shop Headed For The County
According to reporting from the Baltimore Business Journal, Crave is planning a second outpost somewhere in Baltimore County, although the piece does not pin down an exact address. The item, written by Morgan Simpson, ran on April 15.
From Waffle-Licious To Crave
The Little Italy shop began life under a different name. It started as Waffle-Licious, and neighborhood listings and guides note that the concept rebranded and relocated in 2025. The neighborhood group Promotion Center for Little Italy now lists Crave as a regular stop on the area’s dessert circuit.
Where To Find It Now
For now, fans will still find Crave at its Little Italy home base at 236 S High Street. Its menu focuses on bubble waffles, crepes, thick milkshakes, and handmade ice cream, according to a leasing announcement and local listings. Hyatt Commercial covered the Little Italy opening when the storefront launched in mid-2025 and lists the shop’s Instagram handle as @craveloverepeat.
What We Still Do Not Know
The Baltimore Business Journal report does not include an opening date or a specific Baltimore County street address for the second location. Hoodline will update this story once the owners or public records reveal a timeline and exact spot.
