It reminds me of my childhood grocery shopping experiences with my Mom. The aisles are wide, brightly lit, and airy. There is always someone stocking who gladly lends a hand or just shoots the breeze with you. The produce and bakery sections are neat and clean. The meat and seafood counter is a throwback to the old grocery stores where you aren't afraid to ask for a specific cut. The cashier's are often local high school youth at their first job. Even the belts in the store are the older style. Now, as much as I love the old school vibe, they are up on their stuff. They have all of the trendy new grocery store items. You can shop in store, you can pick up pre-ordered groceries, or you can get your things via Instacart. I typically pick up or use Instacart. I like using Instacart because they are one of the few stores that do not hike up their prices when you opt for pick up or Instacart. I literally took off a star because they no longer have that yummy Biscoff ice cream bar that I love. No one does though!

(Anyone want to know how to cold smoke 24 filleted salmon in a cardboard refrigerator box? Let me know!). I needed to find some Chesapeake Channa to make updated Baltimore Coddies for a tasting event. (IYKYK, hon). The Trouts were able to special order the fish for me - not easy to do because CCs are a by-product catch so not always available. Outstanding service! If you can get them you really, really should. Chesapeake Channa are an invasive species that are wreaking havoc in the Bay. The good news: they are incredibly tasty, with a firm, flakey flesh that's suitable for pan frying, roasting, poaching (and sous viding, my technique of choice for this event). Everybody raved about how great the fish was - even after I told them that Chesapeake Channa is more commonly known as "Snakehead". (Hey, it worked for Chilean Sea Bass, which used to be known as "Patagonian Toothfish"). So, thank you to Lighthouse for helping me introduce an old Baltimore dish to a new audience, and help save the Chesapeake Bay at the same time. Score!

This outer suburban, roadside business has been there for a while. It's part country market, part…read moreseafood and fishmonger and part restaurant seemingly specializing in carrout. On our first visit on a winter Wednesday, we were impressed with everything we saw. Being a self-professed seafood snob with extensive periods of my life living ( and eating) in coastal areas, we bought some fresh fish ("blue catfish" to be specific). We help the Chesapeake Bay by eating this endangered species. We also bought some homemade compound butter - they have several seasoning blends. The verdict was that the freshness was outstanding and the trimming (no bones or other waste) was perfect. And with fish, freshness is everything. The price was fair too for the area and the service was personable and helpful. (Note that the inner lining paper of the wrapper stuck to the skin too much - they should change that but I'm not deducting a star - the fish itself was that great). On return trips, we'll check the other faire (shellfish, prepared-on-premises seafood, dine-in options). For now, we are quite happy and the Lighthouse deserves more business.

We visited Gaver Farm on a weekday when public schools were closed, and overall, we had a great…read moreexperience! The farm is situated in a beautiful setting, and the entire fall experience was very well organized. There are plenty of activities for kids of all ages, and our children had a fantastic time exploring everything the farm had to offer. Since we visited during the week, three or four attractions were closed, but there was still more than enough to keep everyone entertained. I also tried the Fall Shake-Up drink, which came with a donut, and it was delicious! One area that could use improvement was the pumpkin patch. The pumpkins were already picked rather than growing on the vines, and many were rotting or smashed, which was disappointing. We also noticed a broken board on one of the low wooden jungle gym structures that should be repaired for safety reasons. On a positive note, there were plenty of portable restrooms conveniently located throughout the farm, which is always appreciated when visiting with young children. Overall, Gaver Farm offers a wonderful fall experience for families, with lots of fun activities in a beautiful, well-maintained setting. Despite a few minor issues, we had a great time and would definitely recommend it to families looking for a fun fall outing!

This place has a little bit of it all - pumpkins, food, animals, corn maze, activities, etc. I will say despite the fact that I think it's ridiculous that a two year old is somehow the same price as an adult, I appreciate that unlike at some other farms the entry fee does in fact cover almost all activities. And as a parent of a small child, I definitely love that all the activities are near each other so you can easily move from one thing to another. My toddler was able to experience lots of different fun things on our afternoon there, although I will say beware that on some days enormous field trips will descend on this location. I am docking a star for a number of more picky reasons. To start I think the variety of items in their store is an area for improvement and left me feeling like they were missing the mark when it came to edible items. We bought very expensive pie that was fine but I do not think worth the price. It is also difficult in general to get food at this location due to limited options and very long lines. We ended up leaving to eat elsewhere. Lastly, I do think customer service leaves something to be desired here. I have visited during other parts of the year and do feel like they are more friendly when not in the heat of the fall fanatic season, however, I found it annoying that they absolutely threw a fit that my toddler did not want to wear the wristband for entry despite me offering to wear it on her behalf and at multiple points we were scolded about this. To clarify, this band is only checked one at entry and yes I understand it is to avoid me fraudulently giving the band away, but I easily could have slipped mine off regardless and done that if I so wanted to. Additionally the amount of priority given to the field trip groups over regular customers seemed unbalanced to me. We have visited many other farms that have field trips in attendance and we have always been encouraged to join the hayride if there was additional room, etc. We will definitely be back again next year! Overall I think a lovely farm that I've seen grow over the years to meet the demands of the public in a really positive way.
