You’ll Love These 3 Annapolis Waterfront Restaurants!

In the mood for award-winning seafood or fresh country favorites? What about light, farm-to-table fare? No matter what you’re craving, you’ll discover an array of delicious dishes here on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. Historic Chestertown offers an abundance of great food, but Annapolis day-trippers will be happy to know that there are plenty of beloved, coastal eateries to choose from. Below, we’ve compiled just a few of our favorite Annapolis waterfront restaurants

3 of the Best Annapolis Waterfront Restaurants

Carroll’s Creek Cafe

When it comes to coastal Maryland fare with a local touch, Carroll’s Creek Cafe is one of the best spots in Annapolis. There’s nothing finer than enjoying a delicious meal as you take in gorgeous Annapolis Harbor views and cool breezes from your seat on the patio! We recommend ordering a specialty seafood dish like the Maryland crab soup or scallops. Carroll’s also serves a fabulous Sunday brunch! Be sure to view the menu and make a reservation (reservation-holders are given preferential seating).

Chart House

Looking for the perfect date night spot in Annapolis? Chart House offers steakhouse classics, salads, a variety of seafood, and panoramic views of the Annapolis Harbor. Though this restaurant is not necessarily local, diners rave about its sunset views, large menu, and coastal ambiance. Reservations are recommended, but not required.

Blackwall Hitch

Blackwall Hitch is an upscale-casual restaurant that serves tasty New American fare. The best part? Outdoor seating (on the rooftop) provides up-close-and-personal views of the surrounding waterway. Whether you’re in the mood for seafood, flatbreads, or just a cocktail or two, Blackwall Hitch is a great choice.
