Knoxies is by far the best restaurant in this area and it's located in the greatest hotel in Maryland! The staff remembers us always and has our special table ready! Ceroy is the head chef at Knoxies and also knows how to shuck the best oysters! The food is always incredible and fresh, the ingredients are from their own garden on the property. Thank you Ceroy for the incredible dining experience and Michelle, Courtney, Kane, Rachel and everyone at the Inn for always making our time here so special!

After several failed reservation attempts at other restaurants, my fianc and I found ourselves at Knoxie's for our anniversary dinner. I must say, I am so glad that the other places didn't work out. We've eaten here before, but last night was one of the best meals I'd had in awhile. We started with calamari and cream of crab soup, both were fantastic. The soup is rice and we both agreed that it is the best cream of crab soup around. I had the filet, which was so tender and cooked perfectly. He thoroughly enjoyed the swordfish. We ended with the donut ice cream sandwich, which

Always good. I especially like whisky Wednesday. The tuna was my favorite appetizer. I love the way they combine so many flavors with the scallops. Somehow it works! We sat in the bar at a high too. Our waiter was also the bartender. He did a great job of making sure we had everything we needed.

Love, love, love the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club. Knoxies Table is a farm to table type restaurant that has small plates and larger entree type offerings. The menu is seasonal and focuses on local sources. Get the soft shell crab as an appetizer and the cioppino, you wont be disappointed. The Market is great for grab and go or quick meals. My favorite is the turkey avocado sandwich for lunch and the biscuit breakfast sandwich with egg, cheddar cheese, and avocado (what can I say? )
The food is delicious and youll want to try it all, so make sure to book a room in their luxurious hotel

What a wonderful place to have a wedding! Everything was so beautiful and such a gorgeous panoramic setting on all sides. The staff was exceptional and very attentive and friendly. One individual Jeff Goldsboro was a shining star. He was warm and hospitable and anticipated our needs at the table before we did if that were possible. The food was delicious every appetizer and the meal was exceptionally beautifully prepared delicious and we felt as if we were dining in a fine restaurant. Well done Chesapeake Bay Beach club!

We had booked our big day for 8.29.2020. We fell in love with the stunning views and well kept venues at Chesapeake Bay Beach Club. Could not have imagined anything better! Further, my day of coordorinator, Samantha was wonderful. She was friendly, positive, and responsive. It was clear to my husband and I that CBBC has everything well organized and planned. Unfortunately our ceremony ended up postponed due to Covid restrictions, and over that time Samantha was out on leave. Although it was a time of great uncertainty for all, CBBC lacked communication and demanded we reduce our guest count to
