    This is an excellent spot for a friends luncheon! We enjoyed bookmaker salad (spectacular), the crab quiche, fish and chips and the shrimp salad! Crab soup is very good, a bit pricey. Smith Island cake... the best! And thanks to Aislinn C. our super server! Attentive and helpful!

    Food was delicious, friendly staff, our waiter was so very nice!! The cream of crab was amazing, the crab vegetable soup was just as good, and upon being seated at our table we were given a large portion of cucumber salad to share in our group, which was very tasty! We highly recommend this restaurant. We drive down from York PA just for the best crab cakes we’ve ever had, definitely worth the drive!!
