Mad Hatters

Mad Hatters, a local favorite in northern Hamilton, exudes whimsical charm from the moment you walk in. No, you are not required to wear one of the hats that adorn the rafters and the walls, but many people do. On the menu, there aren't many better mussels than the ones served here, with either Thai coconut curry or garlic cream sauce; and the jumbo lump crab cakes with sweet chili and ginger aioli would have most Marylanders ordering seconds. Bring friends that are passionate about cuisine and like a good laugh.

The cuisine of Mad Hatters is described as classic European with Thai and North American influences. If that seems perplexing, you've come to the correct place: nothing about it should make sense—the hidden location, the party hats, the fairytale references—but it all comes together somehow. There's no better mussel bowl than this one, which comes with either Thai coconut curry or garlic cream sauce.

Most Marylanders would request seconds of the jumbo lump crab cakes with sweet chili and ginger aioli. The Hoof & Feather, a deer chop with duck breast and Calvados flamed pears, is also a good choice, but don't order anything until you've heard the specials. In fact, most locals eat without consulting a menu; the chef is well-known for his daily creations, which often include fresh fish.
