Middleton Tavern

Middleton Tavern Review

Horatio Middleton began operating this "inn for seafaring men" in 1750; Washington, Jefferson, and Franklin were among his guests. Today four fireplaces, wood floors, paneled walls, and a Colonial theme create a cozy atmopshere and seafood tops the menu; the Maryland crab soup and pan-seared rockfish are standouts. Try the tavern's own Middleton Oyster Ale, perhaps during happy hour or during a weekend blues session in the upstairs piano bar. Brunch is served on weekends, and you can dine outdoors in good weather.
