Bourbon? Fried chicken? Southern food? Yes, please. Cooter Brown's is the kind of place you would ordinarily walk by unless someone recommended it to you. Happy hour specials are top notch. The view from the roof down Rehoboth Avenue is perfect. It is somehow the perfect marriage of upscale and down home.

Great Food and Great Beer
What do you get when a successful restaurant group does their take on the brewpub model? A truly great experience with fantastic food and beer. All the food is seasonal as are the beers. If you go home hungry, you've done something wrong. There are plenty of outdoor activities and a biergarten out back.

Right out the front door and 1/4 mile along Coastal Highway is Fins Ale House and Raw Bar. Even if you're not a seafood fan, Fin's has some incredible local cuisine and the best brunch in the area. Be sure to ask about the happy hour specials, sit in the bar if you can, and try their special seafood sauce. Highly recommended.

Most brewpubs focus on the beer, and food is an afterthought. Iron Hill takes a different tact -- wow the customer with outstanding seasonal food and produce, exceptional service, and pair the food with the beer offerings. Since opening, Iron Hill continues to produce incredibly high quality food. Be sure to join the King of the Hill club and get rewards.

The original first craft brewery in the first state... it all started here. The menu has evolved over time to still include hamburgers and other bar fare, but also wood fired pizza, locally sourced beef, and higher end dishes, without the white tablecloths.

Started as an homage to blending Northeastern United States seafood with Mid-Atlantic seafood, this Dogfish Head owned restaurant combines the best of both worlds. The crab and corn chowder is some of the best in the world. In the winter time they offer $15 lobsters. The cocktail menu is fantastic and service is even better.
