    a plate of food and a bottle of beer
    Jeff L.

    Nice home townhome feeling. Patrons and staff talking and joking together. Parking is tight and Restaurant gets crowded. Large party should make reservations. Then just sit back and enjoy.

    Your typically crab house. It was quaint and you could tell has been around for a while. Staff was very nice and all the food looked delicious.

    We only ended up here because Chesapeake Inn couldn't seat all of the people I came with. We arrived with about 50 people and were seated right away. I wasn't impressed with the decor and the place kinda smelled like an old basement. Again I was with a huge group so I didn't want to make a fuss and I guess I was trying to be open minded. The customer service wasn't bad. The crabs were priced pretty decent and the decor was like your typical crab house. The crabs weren't bad at all but the mussels were horrible. I don't remember the name of the drink I had but it was good. Overall my experience wasn't horrendous but when visiting Chesapeake City the Tap Room would't be my first option.

    Oysters

    Came here on a Sunday evening and it was empty. The decor is like your usual seafood/crab house restaurant. We were told by the very friendly waitress to sit wherever we like. My dad ordered a half a dozen oysters for himself which were huge and he enjoyed it alot. For our dinner we ordered a dozen steamed crabs, half a dozen of the garlic crabs to try and a basket of fries as our side to go with everything. I do like how they give you two different dipping sauces for your crab. It took awhile for the crabs to come out (which was fine! Atleast we know they were cooking them fresh) then they were brought to the table. The garlic crabs were pretty delicious. Very buttery garlic taste. The steamed crabs was a hit or miss. Some crabs had fresh huge chunks of crab while some had mushy old meat that didn't taste that good. Overall we had plenty of food for the three of us. The waitress was very attentive, refilling our waters and making sure we were doing okay. Overall the meal was good but I've had better crabs. Can't complain since we didn't travel to the beach to get some crabs! It was about 130$ for the whole meal which is pricey but expected. Maybe since it's off season that some of the crabs weren't that great? Willing to try again during the summer months!

    What an adorable and tasty little diner!…read more When we arrived the place was packed and we followed the signage instructions to "seat ourselves". Very shortly we were greeted, handed menus and our coffee order was taken, impressive efficiency with a full house! I've have a recent hankering for scrapple and I'm glad this is where I got it- super crispy exterior with a meaty punch of flavor inside, probably the best scrapple I've ever had. I chose the eggs Chesapeake, which is eggs Benedict on a bed of lump crab- you can't go wrong, it's delicious! Husband got the Jo Jo's breakfast burger (without the bun) and the patty was HUGE - a very filling and flavorful choice. Pro Tip: the menu says home fries but it's like a cross between mashed potatoes and diced potatoes - order them extra crispy and you'll be happy you did.

He invited us back out to give the restaurant another shot - and we are so glad he did! We weren't sure what to expect for the second time, and to say we were pleasantly surprised is an understatement. Every single part of the experience was phenomenal. We tried a new appetizer (I can't remember the name but it was a crab appetizer). The crab was fresh and overall, delish. We ordered the Hairy Chinn sushi again, as we did love that the first time. We both got cocktails from their menu, and they were both so unique and refreshing (we even ordered a second round!). I tried a chef special, which was the Picanha & Charred Scallion. When I tell you, it was absolutely perfect! Everything, even down to the olive oil mixture was tasty. My fiancé ordered the crab cakes and he raved about them as well! We ordered a side of Candied Brussels sprouts - and they were easily the best Brussels sprouts we've ever tried. We couldn't resist dessert and got the crème brûlée. We loved every bit! The service was 10/10, and our server was great. She was attentive, friendly, and knew the menu well! Valet parking moved much quicker, and you can't beat the beautiful view of the boats and the water. We had so many great things to say about our experience that now our families are planning their visit too! We are so grateful that Matthew reached out to us. Inviting us back has certainly turned us into loyal customers and we cannot wait to come back!

    Chesapeake City is a real hidden gem, and the center of its crown must be the Bayard House…read more Eighteenth Century is construction, sitting on a knoll above the C&D Canal, its picturesque solid manse is a pleasure to enter and a delight to sit on the enclosed back porch for lunch or dinner. It wasn't busy on an overcast rainy Thursday, and the staff took great care of us with brief history lesson and tips on what to see and do while in town. The weather kept our walking to a minimum, but what we saw was pure Americana. Lunch was also very good. We shared a new recipe for Brussel Sprouts that was delicious with bacon and balsamic mixed throughout. The tart, slightly bitter, mildly sweet composition hit the spot. Too, we shared a fresh Rockfish Sandwich, that was thinly coated and fried with something like aioli spread across the top, with pickles for contrast to the white fish filet. Tasty. Right beneath the back porch in what appears to be the basement, was the Hole in the Wall Bar, right next to another larger dining room that opened out onto a small patio for better weather, and just beyond the wide canal. We checked it out, but it wasn't quite ready for customers at that hour. If you enjoy American history in a picturesque colonial setting, check out Chesapeake City and Bayard House. Its unassuming charm is captivating.
