Coffee Crawl :: Order & Chaos, Baltimore
If you follow along on Instagram, it's no secret that I love Order & Chaos. Admittedly, I've already shared the majority of these photos (and the best captions I could come up with) on the 'gram. But in order to solidify my obsession, I knew I needed to feature this Fed Hill hotspot as coffeeshop number two of my Coffee Crawl series.
Order & Chaos, with it's bold black and white branding, is right next to the top branding agency in Baltimore. And, well, that's not a coincidence. "A creative cup of coffee" is more than just a cool slogan for a coffeeshop -- it's a reference to the ad agency that runs it.
When Planit moved it's headquarters from Baltimore's Inner Harbor to Fed Hill, the agency's co-founders (and their caffeine-craving staff) realized their new neighborhood corner didn't have a coffeeshop.
“When you’re considering a space, you look at all the typical things. You ask, ‘Is it close to I-95? Does it have good parking? Does the Circulator come here?’ And it was like, ‘Yeah, but there’s no coffee shop.’”
And, voila -- the idea, that became Order & Chaos, was born.
Today, Order & Chaos fuels Charm City creatives -- and not just the lucky hundred who get to work at Planit. Truth be told, it's the perfect atmosphere for anyone in need of coffee and inspiration.
In addition to flavored lattes and walking waffles, Order & Chaos offers customers a glimpse of the ad agency life through the glass walls it shares with Planit. This invitation to witness creativity leaves guests feeling easily inspired as they wait for the Slayer espresso machine to do its' thing.
