Great atmosphere/outside eating/lobster sandwich to die for! Lives up to it's name "the Shanty" for a harborside working man's bar/restaurant.

The Shanty is a great waterfront spot with terrific food. Soft shell BLT and buffalo nachos are must-tries. Fresh, local seafood and produce make this special. And, the waitstaff is top-notch. Don't miss this when you're traveling up and down the Eastern Shore of VA.

We stopped The Shanty for a late lunch while at our vacation home. We throughly enjoyed it! I had the OMG burger and it was so good! We really enjoyed the view from our table too!

I would recommend eating here for dinner, as their menu is limited before 5:00pm. This is a very good place though. Nice views. We all liked our food very well. It is a little on the pricey side but you won’t regret it.
