The Narrows Restaurant brings the Eastern Shore’s unique sights and sounds to each of its guests. Traditional oyster, clam and crab workboats ply the waters of Kent Narrows daily among flocks of ducks, swans and migrating geese. Watermen unload and cull their catches on nearby docks in the time-honored patterns of the Shore. In contrast, sleek and fashionable sail and power boats cut through Kent Narrows on their way to ports throughout the bay. Brilliant sunsets are an added bonus for evening diners. The Narrow’s menu is a mix of traditional and local favorites with newer creative items.
Serving the Eastern Shore for Over 40 Years.
The restaurant was built and opened in 1983 by Bo and Brenda Hardesty, who previously owned restaurants in downtown Annapolis, Md. Diners enjoy stunning views of picturesque backdrops while enjoying meals made from the finest and freshest ingredients available.
Along with Bo and Brenda, founding general manager Jerry Dammeyer helped create an award-winning menu and wine list that echoes the Hardesty’s commitment to fine dining and the Eastern Shore.
A business rooted in tradition, Hardesty daughters Kelly and Kate continue to build on the family’s mission while looking to the future. A recently finished addition boosts a waterfront banquet room, outdoor and fireside dining, and an updated interior throughout the property.
Chef Matthew Cohey has spent his 15-year tenure maintaining the level of consistency and quality that The Narrows Restaurant is known for.
