We tried their scallops and blue crabs, both were phenomenal, fresh and insanely delicious. We went in at 4 pm both times we visited and they still had blue craps, shrimp, flounder and scallops available. During the pandemic, they require masks and have a limit of 4 people in at a time which I really appreciated. Enforcing a mask wearing policy is very helpful! They also are cash only so keep that in mind.

My wife and I and family were in Chincoteague Island on vacation and while we were on vacation we…read morewere wanting fresh seafood so we stopped at Ricky's and I am glad we did. We got fresh shrimp. The price of the shrimp was reasonably priced. The lady at the counter was super nice and was very patient when we deciding on how much shrimp to get. When we got our order they put our shrimp on ice so it would stay fresh. This store was clean and has some nice things to buy too besides the food. Don't let the size of Rickys draw you away or the prices either. You will come here and have a good experience like I did. I recommend Rickys to my friends and family or anyone I see looking for a place to get seafood. When I come to Chincoteague Island next I'm coming back to Ricky's.

In terms of quality, the experience was about as good as I could have hoped for. I called in advance but it still took a minute to get my pizza ready, which is okay as fresh food outside on an island is worth waiting for, but bears keeping in mind. There are some picnic tables set up nearby but I did have to depart due to wind and find a more sheltered locale to eat. The pizza had relatively whole crushed tomatoes, which is usually not my preference, but in this case the flavor really hit. The tang, the char, the smoothness of the contrasting ingredients is what you'd get at a high-end place. A salad with ranch dressing and the tiramisu I got for dessert were not on the online menu, but having arrived and seen these options I was glad I elected to take them. It's not the same experience as a sit-down restaurant, but it was a winner for me.

You can literally smell the pastries in the air, which is maybe even better than seeing them waiting for you in the bakery case. On a recent weekend morning we opted for the blueberry cheese Danish, which was perfectly executed, with plenty of juice berries and lush cream cheese filling on top of a flaky, crisp and yes buttery Danish dough. Perfection. I'd love to come back and try a croissant, which look amazing on top of being HUGE. For drinks we opted for the Vietnamese milk coffee, which was just the right balance of sweet, bitter and creamy. It's a distinct experience on Chincoteague but holds its own against plenty of bakeries on the mainland!

My family and I visited…read moreChincoteague last weekend and decided to try this place after seeing all of the great reviews and boy were we glad to have visited. This place became a staple for us for just the few days we were in Chincoteague and there are no regrets. Coffee: Both myself and my partner ordered the Vietnamese iced milk coffee and it was out of this world delicious. This drink was a bit strong but that didn't deter me at all from ordering it every day we visited the coffee shop because it was that good. Pastries: my family ordered the butter and chocolate croissants and they were fantastic! Huge, buttery and chewy inside and flaky on the outside, the perfect combo! We also ordered their chocolate chip cookies on a whim and were pleasantly surprised at how tasty they were. Normally coffee shops aren't know for their cookies but these were the perfect chocolate chip cookies - thick, the right amount of chocolate and not too sweet. We also ordered their peach and pineapple slushie and it was super tasty. I'm not a fan of slushies as they taste pretty watered down but this drink was fresh and had the perfect balance of tart and sweetness! This place is a MUST if you're visiting Chincoteague!

My kids opted for some of the kids' meals, which meant simple hot dog with plain tots and the other got chicken tenders with plain tots. Hard to beat. My wife got the Jamaican hot dog with jerk sauce and seared pineapple. I had a bite; it was okay. Having said that, the Jerk Chicken tots that we also ordered were really good - nice jerk seasoning flavor and the chicken didn't overpower the tots but was a nice accompaniment. We also tried the bacon and cheese tots, which is a classic flavor combination, but nothing to really write home about. There's picnic tables where you can wait for your food or dine there. The guy who took our order said my kids could each have a whelk shell (they had a whole bucket of them) and it's the little things, but my kids loved them. The food got out to us in a timely fashion. Depending on the time of day, you might have shade or be in full sun. Watch your food, the seagulls are ready to steal some tots!

Want melty cheese? Having a Meltdown is the place to go!…read more Most of their menu is grilled cheese, but they also have quesadillas and mac n' cheese. I've been a couple times and if you hit them up off peak hours, food can be ready in 10 minutes. Otherwise, be ready to wait with all the other folks here to get their cheese on. Every sandwich I've ever gotten here was OOZING with cheese. They don't skimp, which I love (my wife finds it overkill, but to each their own). The Four Cheese Melt is a cheese-lover's best grilled cheese. The Philly Cheese is solid. On our last visit, we went with spicy grilled cheeses: -Kick in the Can - this take on a jalapeño popper was delicious. They did not skimp on the pickled jalapeños either! Nice and spicy and also included bacon, cream cheese, and cheddar. -Slap in the Mouth - this Buffalo chicken sandwich was nice with plenty of buffalo sauce, chicken, blue cheese, and mozzarella. My only complaint is that they chicken was in huge chunks rather than diced up, so some bites were a little more chicken-forward than well-balanced. But if that's my only complaint, this is a solid sandwich indeed. The mac n' cheese was solid, with a nice bit of garlic to it. Child #1 got the Oodles of Noodles grilled cheese, which had this grilled cheese in it. A delightfully cheesy bundle of carbs! Waffle fries were solid accompaniment, would get again. Overall great place for celebrating melty cheese; you won't be disappointed!
