Chesapeake’s West derives much of its authentic Eastern Shore qualities from décor that features genuine nautical antiques and artifacts. Pairing this cozy, seaside ambiance with welcoming service and fresh ingredients has made it the perfect spot for creating memorable moments.

As part of the Copper Cellar Family of Restaurants, we offer fresh seafood that’s sourced daily, local, handcrafted microbrews, an extensive wine list and prime-graded beef. We are known for live Maine lobster, Maryland Crab cakes, a variety of fresh fish, and assorted oyster selection.

Chesapeake’s features a raw bar, Sunday brunch, and happy hour in the bar/lounge. Full menus — including gluten free options are available and can be enjoyed on our patio. Free onsite parking and a courtesy shuttle is available for local hotels.

Whether you come for the food, the drinks, or the atmosphere, you’re in for an unforgettable experience.

Buffet only on Easter, Mother's & Father's Days, Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Service was superb. Harrison was timely & attentive. Food was great, but it came out of the kitchen lukewarm. Squash wouldn’t even melt the butter! Quality of the food and service need to be matched by kitchen’s timing. Otherwise, the dining experience will suffer!

Mustard sauce for stone crab claws was terrible! There are much better mustard sauce recipes! The sauté fish, if done right, doesn’t have to be buried in heavy flour and bland sauce. It’s not a one off. The last time I had halibut that was over baked and suffered from the sauce issue.

Blackened grouper was superb! Shrimp scampi was excellent! Fried scallops were great. Clam chowder was good. Only problem was extremely hot spinach Maria! Too much pepper- couldn’t eat it.

Our server was sweet and had a fun and witty sense of humor. I had the crab bisque and the crab cakes and my husband had the seared mahi tuna. DELICIOUS!
