breakfast

joppaj · Aug 15, 2008

Shoremen,

I'm going to heading across fairly early tomorrow morning to see family down in Hurlock. Looking for good eats for breakfast, preferably along the rt 50 corridor. I used to stop at Island Inn, thant's gone. Used to stop at the little place in the Narrows that burned down a few years ago. Havn't eaten at Holly's since probably 1993 and don't really remember it. So, who serves a good stack of pancakes on the Shore?

Holly's still has a good breakfast.

I just pulled up thier website (I'm stunned they have a website), prices are certainly right. I think the last thing I had there was an open faced turkey sandwich with fries, I recall being happy with it. Hell, the fact that I can remember a meal I ate last century

should say something. OK, anybody else got an idea?

Cracker barrel will be open in about 2 months, so perhaps on your next trip...

Laugh all you want, but Hardee's has killer breakfast. There's a diner on the left going down I believe in Easton, but maybe Cambridge thats good too. Forgot whats its called...

There's a place called B&B Family Restaurant right off of Cox Neck Rd & Rt 18 right next to Sears that's not a bad place to get breakfast. During hunting season we usually end up there after the morning hunt has finished up. Not bad, and the price is right. I think they have a buffet also that's good but you can order off the menu also.

Thanks guys. I may try B&B as I'll come to it first. Glad to know that Holly's is still chugging along and if B&B's is busy, I'll keep moving down to Grasonville. Now, where the heck is Sears on Kent Island? Is it near Bakers? Is it in the same plaza that used to have a gym up in the corner?

cambridge diner, on the far side of cambridge, on the left of 50. You can get a ton of food pretty cheap. The place aint much to look at but they can cook.

Joppaj,

Island Inn was in Cambridge, right? If it is the same place I'm thinking of, they had some of the best cream of crab soup and it was cheap. I used to stop there all the time after hunting out on Eliott's Island. That was the ticket after a day humping the marsh. Kevin

There may have been one in Cambridge, but I meant the one on Kent Island right next to Stevensville Middle School. It's still there, but it's been bought by someone else and I don't think they serve breakfast.

50E to Cox Neck Rd to first left Rt 18 (Baker's Liquors on corner). Sears on left about a 1/4 mile down. B&B just after Sears on the left.

Island Inn was bought out by Ram's Head, the same people that own the two Ram's Heads in Annapolis and the Rams Head Live in Baltimore. It's called Ram's Head Shorehouse (I think) and it's a pretty good bar. I think it's an improvement over Island Inn but I'm not an eastern shore old timer like Joppa

We stop in there a few times a year. Nice sound system in there.

At one point there was an English's restaurant in either Easton or Cambridge (I think it was Easton) where I have eaten, and it had pretty good food, but that was a long time ago.

When it comes to breakfast, any diner usually has good food if you want to take the time.

B&B's review... Best d*mn homefries I've had in a long time. Perfect balance of onions, butter and salt, fried to crispy on the outside and soft in the middle, absolutly delicious. Pancakes were very good and the short stack my daughter had was two plate size pancakes, everyone liked them. Coffee was hot, waitstaff was friendly if not nessisarily the most attentive on Earth. I think the problem there was a load of regulars that like to chat, but I deduct no points because nobody looked at us funny when my daughter got loud. Overall, good call AK!

Good to hear and glad to help. The breakfast buffet they have there is very good too. Like I said, it's our favorite spot during hunting season in between morning and afternoon hunts. Glad you liked it Joppa :thumbsup:

Just make sure you are armed before you go in there...

Ate there once in about 1996, I'm not tripping over myself to get back there. There used to be another truck stop on 301 up near Millington. I don't know what the real name was but my friends from that area used to call it The Dutch Deli. They had great fried chicken.
