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.

The shrimp was great and the service was good. The cost is pretty high for a one person meal.

Food quality was good but service was sub-par. Server returned 3 times to let us know the kitchen was out of side dishes we ordered. We requested bread and had to remind the server after our entree was delivered that we never received the bread.

Clay T. was a top notch professional server. His recommendations and menu knowledge were both on point. He was incredible. Crab bisque is definitely worth a cup. The lobster tail was tender and perfectly cooked, and the crab cake was full of lump meat. My lady’s steak was a little over cooked, and the scallops were a bit too salty, but we still enjoyed both. Oysters were fresh and tasty. The red velvet cheesecake was delicious. Yes, we ate too much.
