We've had a repeat errand in North East so we are working our way through all the restaurants in town. Today--St. Patrick's Day!--we pulled over at the Port House Grill which thankfully has a small dedicated parking lot. Parking is a nuisance in North East and we were a little concerned that things might be busy because it was a Saturday AND a festive occasion.
Things were indeed busy on the street, but drivers have pretty good manners. Despite the back up from the nearest light, a nice Benz let us go ahead and get out afterwards.
Anyway. The menu is simple: a few soups; a few fishes; crab and crabcakes; burgers. There is an excellent array of bottled craft beers and they supply a lovely frosted mug for the pour. There are wines but I went for unsweetened ice tea in part because I was driving and mostly because I am...again...trying to drop a few lbs.
We both went for the single crab cake platter with two sides. We both had cole slaw (fresh, crunch, very good). My husband had fries were where the best ones we have had in ages outside of the ones we make at home for ourselves. I had the "chef's choice vegetable" which was grilled rounds of yellow squash and zucchini tossed with roasted pepper. Very nice.
The crab cakes--again, outside of the ones my husband makes at home--were some of the best we've had. They were moist and flavorful and all succulent pieces of crab. There was only enough flavoring to get the crab to adhere. They were fried to a golden brown. $17 is not an inexpensive lunch plate but we are talking crab here and it was worth every penny.
We contemplated dessert. We noticed creme brulee on the menu and that's always attractive. They serve homemade ice cream and one of the flavors was caramel. Enticing--but actually, we had had enough. Oh, yeah, and then there is that diet I am supposed to be on.
The process is simple. The place is fairly small; a nearly inaudible bell announces your arrival and whoever is at the counter sends out a cheery welcome. Choose a table. Head up to the counter where you can look at the menu, place your order and pay. Return to your table and relax over your drinks and food is brought to you shortly. No fuss, no frills, great pleasure.

We were very pleased with our experience here. We planned a party for around 40 employees with Angela's help. She was very accommodating and easy to work with. We couldn't have been happier with the whole experience. The charm of this restaraunt is wonderful. They had it tastefully decorated for the holiday. Our food was amazing! Filet mignon, seafood platter, and salmon were fabulous! Our employees had no complaints. Side dishes were good too. The cheesecake was outstanding. Our servers were very professional and didn't miss a beat. Our guest were very well attended to. I would highly recommend having a party here or even just dinner!

This place makes fresh, made to order donuts in a variety of fun varieties. My favorite is the maple bacon!!! Yum! Their coffee is also excellent. Once in a while there is a line for donuts. But it is worth the wait as they come...MoreThank you very much for the review!

We have enjoyed the Tuesday night rib dinner special for $9.99 many times. The quality and portion is fabulous. Sadly, food rarely gets to the table HOT. I actually sent mine back for 40 seconds of microwaving. Danielle, our server, made an effort to please but spent way too much time visiting with a couple at the high top table near the bathroom and sucking on a Red Bull. For the best experience, make a reservation, arrive no later than 5pm and make your waitress wait while you test food temp.

Ice cream Shop, Dairy Store Enjoy our playground, big straw bale maze, and petting farm in a quiet country setting.
We stopped here after eating at a local restaurant. The staff was very friendly and the place was cute and clean. We encountered no crowd/lines as someone else mentioned. There was a great variety of flavors and even several chocolate-based flavors which we don't find too often in other creameries/ice cream shops. I go for fruity flavors and hubby does chocolate! Everything we tasted/chose was delicious and chock-full of goodies..lots of and large chunks of chocolate, nuts or fruit. the prices were a little high but the scoop size was large and a really delicious product is worth the extra cost. Give it a try!

My husband and I stopped in here last June on a Sunday afternoon. We sat outside and enjoyed several 1/2 priced seafood appetizers - drunken clams and calamari. Both were very yummy and you can't beat a promo like that. We sat on the deck and had a couple of draft beers while enjoying the cute little town of North East Md. The full menu here looks very appetizing, so we plan to return for dinner. The inside bar is also very inviting. This was our second visit for a mid day snack and adult beverage.
