Skipper's is great to catch an evening sunset from the outdoor seating area. The food is great and they have a dock bar for those 21 & over with a rooftop area. There is an overflow parking lot if it's crowded that is a short walk away.

Petie's is a local favorite. It's small, but the food is some of the best in the local area. It's not on the water so we enjoy it most during the colder months when we aren't seeking a place on the water.

City/town information
Only about 30 minutes away, downtown Annapolis and Ego Alley, along with Eastport across the bridge, are a must visit if you are new to the area. Check out the historic Capitol building and then walk down Main Street to Ego Alley where you normally see some impressive boats docked. There are water taxis to take you over to Eastport or just walk across the bridge. The Boathouse is a great restaurant or try Davis's Pub nearby for a delicious crab stuffed pretzel!

Don't expect to be able to Uber everywhere
Shady Side is far enough away from a major town (like Annapolis) that ordering an Uber ride to town is not easy or even available. Plan to drive your car or even bike to some of the closer spots.
