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.

Food was excellent and cooked as requested- steak was well seasoned and very flavorful. Reese's Peanut Butter Cheesecake was amazing! Fast service for a busy holiday season Saturday night. Will definitely return and highly recommend!

The young men who were in charge of valet parking were friendly and helpful. Front end manager and young lady were kind and welcoming. Autumn was our server and she was absent delightful! She answered all of our questions regarding our anticipated food selections. Entrees were excellent! Autumn was spot on re: refills, checking on us regularly, etc. All of the above made for a perfect anniversary celebration for both couples. ❤️

We were seated at a booth which typically is the coldest spot in the restaurant. We asked the manager if we could move to another booth or table that was not as drafty as the end booth (so drafty that the paper menus were blowing). The manager said if we moved we would have to change servers of which we had specifically requested the one we were to be seated with. He said he couldn’t swap servers tables. I understand that if the restaurant was busy but there was hardly anyone in there. So, we decided to leave and were very disappointed. We typically eat at Chesapeak’s 2 to 3 times a week.
