Out of they way but worth the trip. They were short staffed but service was great. Pretzels and beer cheese great appetizer. Orange crush drink was large and refreshing. I got the chicken burrito bowl it was spicy and delicious. My sister got the crabby chicken, she loved it. Homemade chip were fantastic. Highly recommend. read more

I really enjoyed this little hide away. The food was really good and the portions are huge. Our waitress was really nice and accommodating. Nice laid back atmosphere. Highly recommend this place. read more

This is one of my favorite local spots! The atmosphere is fun and the staff is always kind. It's just an all around very laid back place with good good. Angie is one of the bartenders and she's just so fun! Always engaging guests and efficient. Even when it's busy ( which it often is) she's never frazzled! I know they have some cool event nights like trivia! Good times :) read more

Great hometown bar and grill! Very "Cheers" like. We always enjoy the nachos and a burger.

Came to watch game I love the 1/2 and 1/2,soup. So yummy. Great locals joint. Sweet Eddy's tea vodka w lemonade is amazing and deadly...in a great of way of course. Fish and chips and bobo shrimp... yum. Did I mention sweet Eddy's? Besides Lamar Jackson sucking it's a great place read more

Excellent restaurant. I had a soup & sandwiche special. The sandwich was a grilled ham & cheese - awesome. The soup was a thin potato soup - just ok. My wife had the salad trio - shrimp salad, chicken salad and a fruit salad - AWESOME. Best chicken salad I have ever had. Excellent craft beer selection keying on Eastern Shore breweries. They also offer a military discount Prices were reaso Definitely will return. Returned today 30 March 2019 - even better than the 2 previous times. Had the Special - soup & full sandwich. Their cream of crab soup is fantastic, and the bread that my turkey & Swiss was on was soooo fresh and tasty. Bradley was our server, did a great job. If it wasn't 35 miles away I'd be here every day. read more

My boyfriend's family lives around Doc's and we go here ALL the time. But not because the food is amazing, just because it's convenient. The food is good, nothing spectacular. I've tried a few items such as: the cold plate platter, made up of awesome chicken salad, too fishy shrimp salad (possibly made from frozen shrimp), a bunch of packaged crackers, and fruit from a can (didn't touch this). The nacho appetizer, made up of chili, jalapenos, tomatoes, cheese, and lettuce with salsa and sour cream on the side, nothing special about these but I would like to try the chicken instead of chili next time! the spinach salad without bacon/bacon dressing- which was pretty plain and consisted of spinach, red onion, and mushrooms, I could've passed on this salad and enjoyed a platter of fries instead.. hah! there goes my diet. Pros: $3 margaritas during happy hour, $4 margaritas when it's not happy hour -fried rockfish, the french fries & onion rings, and their chili -great service, the waitresses are attentive and friendly (+!!) -fried oysters are good. -stuffed mushrooms are a hit or a miss, consists of 4-5 mushrooms stuffed with crab meat. I received different opinions about this appetizer though -house made chips are yummy! I like the seasoning on them and they're kettle cooked. -corn bread (if you ask for it) comes out warm and with butter. I love cornbread. -Caesar salad is good, but get the dressing on the side because it tends to be heavy Cons: -Avoid the tuna BLT/tuna on salad if you want it cooked a certain way. It's always cooked more than how you want it. -the upcharge for fries (worth the $2 though) and toppings for your burgers are .75 each. -a cup of soup is $6....whether it's Italian wedding or Maryland crab... read more

Poor-overpriced/ Cheesesteak soggy with little meat wrapped in foil yuck- potato chips stale -not enough air flow outside McDonald's would be vast improvement read more

Doc's Riverside Grill was an oasis for us on a recent Eastern Shore road trip. Driving on a hot Sunday afternoon we found nothing of substance (or really, nothing open) in Chesapeak City or Chestertown and were parched for some good beer by the time we reached Centreville. We never would have find the place were it not for Yelp - thanks, Yelpers. Docs doesn't appear to be beside a river - it's outdoor dining area is a walled-in patio. It's nothing fancy, but it has a GREAT beer full of microbrews list and some tasty appetizers (we had the homemade chips, covered in sauce with bacon - healthy it ain't). read more

Doc's Riverside Grille - 14 great draft beers on tap! - New American Near Me - Centreville, Maryland

I just don't find this place special. Average food for above average prices. I think the draw of so many people has been the lack of places to eat in the Centreville area. However, I think now that the economy is getting better and new places are opening back up that this location will be less attractive to the locals. It does have probably the biggest bar in Centreville which will always be an attraction for some, but the food really is not worth it to me. read more

Excellent food & service. Indoor and outdoor seating, and we were seated immediately on a busy weekend. Walking distance to both the Centreville Wharf and downtown. Even the music is at the right volume! Highly recommended. read more

This is my fav hang out! It is great food a good time and pleasant staff! I frequent here often and get shrimp or seafood quesadillas!

Great place.. Nice staff. Good portions. They even gave us to go cups for our teas. Fair prices... Plenty of Tv's to watch..... read more

Good local spot. But why have TVs in dining room tuned to 24 hr news. Who goes to lunch or dinner and says "sure hope we can watch news while we eat?" read more

Highly recommend Doc's Riverside Grill. Went on a weekday for lunch during COVID. They exceeded recommendations for safety, clearly invested in keeping staff and patrons safe. Service was exceptional. We had the good fortune of having "Susie" as our waitress and she could not have been nicer, more efficient or more accommodating. Food was great and service and hospitality were even better. They have a large, heated tent that kept us both warm and isolated from other patrons. Looking forward to a return visit after COVID! read more

First visit. Food was excellent. I had Surf and turf burger. The seafood was real not just a paste. Highly recommend. Young wait staff was very friendly and attentive but didn't hover. We sat outside. They had Christmas music playing. Good prices. I'll definitely go back read more

Features dependable food and a friendly waitstaff in a pleasant bar atmosphere. The place is divided into a dining-room side and a separate bar area lined with TVs showing sports. Since that is an option, it's unfortunate that there are TVs throughout the dining room as well. What is unacceptable, however, is that the owner insists that all TVs in the dining-room be on and tuned to Fox News. Polite requests on separate occasions to have them switched off or the channel changed were met with flat refusal. This was to a group of regular local customers that eats there weekly and it really detracts from what would be an otherwise enjoyable meal with friends. read more

First time here at Doc's Riverside stopping on the way home from vacation. Sure glad we did. The Maryland seafood and veggie soup was chock full of shrimp, crab, and Scallops, along with tender veggies. Service was superb, very attentive staff. The shrimp salad wrap was filled with large shrimps in a tasty sauce, too big to eat in one sitting. If I'm passing through this quaint town again, I would love to go back to try other seafood options. Prices reasonably selected for seafood and sandwiches. read more

I have searched for many years and many miles to find a delicious Cream of Crab soup. Doc's was able to quench my desires and send me into a soup euphoria. Everytime I get to the Eastern Shore, one stop we have to make is to Doc's. Before I head back to FL each time, I purchase 1 or 2 bowls of the soup with extra crab...ooohhhhhh sooo deliciousssss. I once ran into a problem flying with soup but found a solution. Prior to leaving on a flight, refrigerate the soup. All of the good cream and butter turns it into more of a solid that is easily reheated and just as delicious on the south end of the US. Oh Doc's.....I yearn for you!!! Everything else is very good too, but I definitely go for the Cream of Crab...See you next trip. read more

Great food- seafood nachos delicious! Good sports bar w all the football games and kid friendly. read more

Doc's Riverside Grille - New American Near Me - Centreville, Maryland

Always excellent food, great burgers & shrimp salad is fantastic! Specials Are always goo too! Very reasonable prices.

Still not impressed with this restaurant. Too many TV's in the dining room and they're always tuned to Fox! Yuk.. bet the renovations include more tv's..not to mention dishes are not prepared consistently. The only thing they have going for them is location. read more

Today was the second time I have been to Doc's. The waitstaff is very sweet and attentive. I would like to say something else positive, but I can't. The food was average at best. I know it is a sports bar, but the level of noise in the restaurant was outrageously and offensivily loud. I couldn't hear the person sitting a foot away from me over the din from the music speakers. We asked if the volume could be lowered, but our request was ignored. Unless you like loud loud loud music or Fox TV, I'd find another place to eat. read more

Docs is a cool hangout for drinks and music. I don't know the owners but the manager is on point!

We were in town for my son's lacrosse tournament and stopped by for lunch. The seafood was all very fresh and delicious, and it was a great place to watch the football games while having an excellent meal. read more

Love this family friendly restaurant! Foods pretty solid , good drink selection, service is pretty good, love that I can take my 1.5 year old there and not feel weird when she acts like a child. read more

This is excellent casual restaurant - except - There are TVs throughout the dining room all tuned to Fox News all the time. There is nothing that will ruin an appetite like watching someone explain how taking children away from their parents is a good thing. If Doc's ever decides to change channels, try the fish tacos. read more

Good, not great food. Locals seem to really like the bar and tolerate the average food. No river or view of one as far as I could tell. Nice waitress. Not one vegetarian dish, other than a garden salad, which left my daughter hungry. read more

Decent food, but a little bit over priced. I was disappointed their crab balls/crab cakes are not freshly made. They could not even confirm if the crab cakes were made with local blue crab. Service was average, the facilities were clean, but the wait for food was a bit excessive --45 minutes. The haddock was a good deal for the price. I'll definitely return, and support this local joint. Maybe some day they will improve. read more

Great local place to have dinner or lunch. They support the local American Legion and the Wounded Warriors Program. In my book just for their community involvement they get an A+, however, since I am rating them ... it is important to note that the food is good, the beer is cold and the staff are friendly. read more

This place knows how to cook great seafood. They have great seasoning and fried options for people like me who do not like "fishy" tasting food. The service was great! They are very helpful and patient. read more

Went for dinner Fourth of July weekend. They don't have steamed crabs which was a bummer... But, they do have delicious steamed shrimp. I wasn't very impressed by their menu. While there were quite a few things there nothing really jumped out. It's a pretty standard eastern Maryland bar. The service was great though! I also hear its a great place to watch sports, which I don't, but at least it's an option! read more

Do not pass up a chance to try their homemade chips. Yum. Good food. Nice atmosphere. Ok for kids. Excellent service. Love the small plates option read more

Doc's Riverside Grille - Doc's Riverside Grill. Centerville MD - New American Near Me - Centreville, Maryland

This place is fantastic! As for the service, Bryan, our waiter , was super efficient and went out of his way to cater to our needs. He was very friendly and it was like seeing a good friend again. The food is like something out of a wonderful dream. The location is perfectly quaint. This place makes you feel like it's your place. A MUST stop!!! Just don't be cheap with the tip. read more

Good food, fast and friendly service. Highly recommend if passing through Centreville!

this place is a hidden gem! - great place for lunch or dinner... very local feel.. full of locals... gets busy on the weekend... mediocre happy hour specials ... nice beer selection..okay wine list... food menu makes up for it all.... I've been several times after work for drinks and dinner and everyone I'm with... always raves about their entree.... very simple patio .... and attentive wait staff this place has versatility -- half bar scene - perfect for catching a game .. half sit down dining room .. perfect for family friendly dinner read more

The food is just mediocre, or as I call it "boring". Some appetizers have that freezer quality to them, especially the spring rolls. The prices are fairly decent though. For 2 of us with 2 appetizers, a chicken cheese steak (not good) and a crabby chicken salad and 4 beers was only $40.00. They do have beer drink specials, which is a big plus. $2 Natty Boh's during baseball games. Hopefully my girlfriend is over this place so we don't have to come back for food, I'd come back to drink my face off though. read more

Mr. Logical, my mother-in-law, and I headed here for lunch when we needed a break from house renovations. We all greatly enjoyed our lunches, and FIL enjoyed the hamburger we brought back for him. I had the Smokey's Choice sandwich, which was huge and delicious. So were the homemade chips that came with it. MIL had the soup and sandwich special, which was also huge. Mr. Logical ordered fries with his sandwich, only because of the presence of malt vinegar on the table, and enjoyed them as well. Definitely will be a favorite spot once we move to Centreville. read more

Docs is a nice go-to for a family lunch or dinner. The food is above average, and the menu is fairly deep. Bar side is lively but loud, while dining room side is quiet but bland. Friday and Saturday happy hour and dinner parking is very hard to come by. Also, you pay for the quality, as Docs is a bit expensive for its modest atmosphere. An order of wings is $10, and a call Margarita is $9, for example. And don't expect a major wine list. Beer is a better choice, with much better options. Nice outdoor patio during warm months. read more

This is a solid place for a night out. Nothing spectacular, but decent basic American food. I had a BBQ burger with chips, and the only complaint I had was that the chips needed salt. My husband seemed happy with his Ahi tuna, but he did mention it was a little overcooked. We went on the night of their Halloween party, and it was what you'd expect... loud music, underdressed women, and a few people who were well past tipsy. The server was fantastic even though the place was packed. The bathroom was pretty clean for a bar. Parking can be an issue on a busy night, so arrive early if you're going for an event. read more
