Which Maryland Restaurants Have Survived Over A Century? These 8 Still Serve Dinner

Some Maryland restaurants were serving meals before the light bulb, the telephone, or even the Civil War. A few of them still open their doors every week and put dinner on the table.

This list covers eight places that have lasted more than 100 years, from a waterfront tavern in Annapolis to a farmhouse with mountain views. If you like good food with a side of history, these spots are worth saving for your next night out.

Some Maryland restaurants were serving meals before the light bulb, the telephone, or even the Civil War. A few of them still open their doors every week and put dinner on the table.

This list covers eight places that have lasted more than 100 years, from a waterfront tavern in Annapolis to a farmhouse with mountain views. If you like good food with a side of history, these spots are worth saving for your next night out.

Founded around 1750, Middleton Tavern has been feeding people in Annapolis since before the United States was a country. It sits at 2 Market Space, right in the historic district near the water.

The menu sticks to classic American comfort food with a strong Chesapeake accent. Think crab cake sandwiches, hot crab dip, steamed mussels, and oysters Rockefeller, plus fish and chips and a Cobb salad for anyone skipping seafood.

Inside, a fireplace and live music give the old building plenty of personality. There is also a porch for outdoor seating, and dogs are welcome outside.

I would save this one for a weekend evening, since it stays open until 2 AM on Fridays and Saturdays. Parking downtown can be tricky, so plan on a garage or paid street spot.

Sunday opens at 10 AM FINISH READING HERE
