It was open for 20 years, so I'm not sure it's fair to say it "failed." As for why nothing has happened with that spot, the economy isn't exactly conducive to opening a restaurant or coffee shop right now. Costs are extremely high, employees are hard to find, and customers just aren't going out as much as they did 3 years ago.

Employees aren’t hard to find. Employees in Canton who will work for shit wages are hard to find

Patterson Perk was also getting robbed like once a month leading up to them closing. It was at least 4 or 5 times, but I want to say it was more, Bmore Licks and them both went cashless because of it.

On another note, I live very close to them, and would usually walk much further for better coffee and food.

With all due respect this is inaccurate. Patterson Perk torpedoed their business during Covid when they enacted what felt like the most extreme and unnecessary protocols in all of Baltimore city.
