I was out familiarizing myself with the area and stumbled across Barbara Jean's. I stopped for dinner. It was a Wednesday night and not crowded. I was seated immediately, my server took the time to find out that it was my first time, made the recommendation for the crab cakes so I got the she-crab soup, crabcakes, green beans and... more

I dined at Barbara Jeans with my mother, grandmother, and aunt for a nice 'girl's dinner.' Except it wasn't nice (besides the company. :) ) I started with the she crab soup and had shell in my first bite. I thought "it happens." and took another bite. Shell. I was thinking 'okay... surely that is it.' I took three more... more

This was our second visit. First time, everything was great. Best meatloaf! Second visit, food was very good, even the burger, but our server just had no drive to please.

Pleasant atmosphere. Prices okay. My wife made the mistake(?) of ordering dessert "Chocolate Stuff", saying "a bowl". Definitly recieved a Bowl. Was very good, but enough for... more

Wife and I had breakfast at Barbara Jeans and I thought the food was good, the service and atmosphere were great and above all, the prices were excellent. more

This place is so good. The only bad thing is that I ate so much I felt full even the next day! I got the she crab soup, shrimp and grits and chocolate stuff (sooooo good). Can't wait to go again :-) Sides are awesome too! more
