The Northern Neck of Virginia has a legacy of harvesting seafood from the waters of the Potomac and Rappahannock Rivers. The various Native American tribes who inhabited the region before colonization by the English made their homes along the riverbanks, and the local seafood was an important part of their diets. Fresh seafood is always available here. A great variety of fish are available year round.
Crabs run during the summer months, and oysters are available during the winter months.
Our restaurants serve some of the finest and freshest seafood for you to enjoy. You can buy local fresh seafood from seafood retailers almost anywhere in the Northern Neck. Although an odd looking creature, once you've tasted a steamed crab, you'll be a crab lover for life. Crabs are in full season during the summer months, and are readily available in the seafood markets and restaurants. When the crabs are running, mainly in the summer months, we also have soft shell crabs.
