Gilchrist
Gilchrist Review
A longtime staple that reopened in a new location after a much-bemoaned four-year absence. Watch the boats come and go from dockside in Gardner's Basin as you linger over a breakfast of Frisbee-size blueberry hot cakes or omelets and grits. Some think it's the best breakfast in town. For lunch there are sandwiches, hot dogs, and crab cakes. The food is obviously just as good inside, but its worth a wait for a seat on the dock.
