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.

We eat at the one in Gatlinburg all the time, it's wonderful. This one in Knoxville was nice, but my salmon was overcooked, and the waitress was not attentive as should have been with these prices. I could not believe I paid over 100.00 for this meal and didn't even eat the salmon due to how dry it was. I am very disappointed with the service 90 % will not return to this restaurant.

My grandson and I lunched at Chesapeake’s West Knoxville to celebrate his 11th birthday. The interior was beautiful and the service was excellent! My grandson ordered an entire lobster and cheese grits, then finished with the snickers cheesecake. I ordered the haddock with a side of baked creamed spinach. Everything was delicious and excellently prepared. The birthday luncheon was a huge success! Thank you Chesapeake’s!

We had the grouper special. Pricey at $39, but worth it. We arrived early and were seated early. Our server was very attentive
