A PLACE TO GATHER, DINE
& INDULGE IN THE SENSES

Just off Main Street in "America's Coolest Small Town" Blacksmith moves with its own rhythm. We focus on farm-to-table dishes, hand forged in our kitchen, and social lubricants crafted with intention. We gather our ingridients locally, work in small, seasonal batches, and let the food speak for itself. It's not just a place for dinner; its's a place to settle in, loosen up and stay awhile.

Amazing small town restaurant great cocktails, delicious food, very attentive service, and a cozy dining room

– Dan G., Yelp (Feb. 2025)

From splitting the ceasar salad and pork bao buns to our cocktails and the main course, everything was soooo tasty! I can't remember the last time we went out and everything was flawless. Our waitress was personable and attentive as well! This is our favorite restaurant and we are never disappointed! Worth every penny!

Pleasant surprise to start off of the year. Best patio I have seen since coming back to east coast. Excellent music choices. Super dog friendly staff and delicious food and drink. Had the Maytag blue cheese salad- mix of savory and a bit of sweet from the dressing/grapes/raisins, rose and bubbles for the new year!

We were traveling from the Outer Banks to Dover, Delaware and got hungry when we approached this quaint little town. Decided to try blacksmith bar and restaurant and were amazed! The ambience is quaint and quirky, the service was excellent and the food we had was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend.

We ate outside on the covered patio with our husky mix and the vibe was fun! The staff was so friendly and caring towards our girl. Brought her a water bowl and acknowledged her. The food was great and very vegan/allergen friendly.

We went off the beaten path of Rt 50 going to Ocean City and stopped in Berlin. Go to Berlin. This small town that has quite a selection of shops, dining, pubs and bars, and some Maryland History. We grabbed a late lunch at Blacksmith. Very cool place with a super friendly staff. Ask for recommendations and Chef Specials. Trust Me. Enjoy.

I am in love with Blacksmith! This is one of my favorite restaurants on the Eastern Shore. I love the food, the decor, and the time and care the owners have obviously committed to making it a wonderful dining experience. Every meal has been outstanding. Staff has always been welcoming and service is always awesome! See you soon xo

We stumbled upon this restaurant in the winter for a cute date night. We sat at the bar and we've been back a few times. Every time they have great food and service. Also, they have great vegan/vegetarian options. I would come early to make sure you can get a good seat!

– Mel H., Yelp (Jan. 2026)

Always love going here to dine. I haven't been here in a few years but it was still just as good as the first time I went! I got the Short Ribs with shrimp and grits. It was fantastic and I also got one of the mules that was on the menu to drink.
