On our recent trip back to Annapolis to take care of my father's dogs, my lovely girlfriend Kelly had been fiending for a Ruben, so when doing a little look at main street we saw the sign in the Market House, and decided to try it for lunch the next day. We were both expecting a restaurant, but when we went in we learned that the Market House is a city owned premises where various food places rent and have stands, and the Galway Bay was one of those stands, where you get your food and take it outside to sit at little tables around the building or stand up at bars around the inside in between the food stalls. We were a little put off, but decided to give it a try.



We each got a Rueben and one big bucket of Fries, but they also have Fish and Chips, which they batter right in front of you and cook on the griddle. The Rueben was also done on the griddle and they put the corned beef, which was in stringy, but tasty pieces on the hot griddle and added the sauerkraut and let it cook, before adding cheese and putting it on rie bread, but instead of Russian dressing, they just used yellow mustard. The sandwich does not touch Victor's for size, and it is abotu as greasy as could be, but it was pretty tasty. Certainly not the best Rueben I have ever had, but a decent one, if you could stand the grease (and it isn't like Rueben's are not already bad enough for you).

If you are ever on the main drag in Annapolis and want a Rueben this is not a bad solution, but next time I would hope to try the Rueben place that is up the main street further out of town.
