10. Wings To Go

My wife and I were driving through Delaware, had tried Wings to Go before and loved them so figured we had to stop in for lunch. Wings themselves were very good and well cooked, service was good. Only problem is the place has almost nowhere to sit, there are a couple seats so we were able to eat there but it's far from ideal. Also it looks like there haven't been any updates done in about 20 years. But hey, the wings were good and that's what I was there for.

Just stopped for Drinks. The have an extensive beer menu. I believe at least 10 drafts if not more. They even have their own small batch brewery which they proudly pour. The draft menu was not just cheap everyday beers. It contained many local and regional craft beers. The server at the bar was warm and friendly and we will definitely go back. Many locals and tourist hit this place regularly. I believe it was probably the most extensive beer menu we encountered at Dewey. I may be wrong but didn't find another establishment close that beat it.

Enjoyed brunch here with friends while watching the Womenâs World Cup Final. The TVâs are plentiful and the crowd was enthusiastic and fun! We loved the cold brew Irish coffee (great idea!) and our food was fabulous! The poached eggs on the Crab Benedict were cooked perfectly and the flavors of the lump crab, tomato, avocado, and hollandaise melded together wonderfully. A healthier friend said the fruit was fresh and the egg white omelette was great. The skillet, with eggs, cheese, and tots, was an amazing guilty pleasure. Will definitely return!Thank you for the review. Glad you enjoyed having breakfast with us and watching the World Cup. Hope you come back soon!!

Love this place. Friendly servers, better than average bar food and sandwiches, and lots of character. You can eat/drink inside or on the expansive covered back porch.

We couldn't help but return for 3 nights in a row during our stay in Dewey Beach. From Courtney at the front door to both Kelly and Payton, this is the best place in Dewey hands down! The food is spectacular! Oysters are fresh and tasty, the flank steak app or sandwich are amazing, and the calamari the best in the area. You cannot go wrong with anything on the menu and the drinks are great as well (get a Grapefruit Crush!)...but, it's Courtney, Kelly and Payton that make this the best place at the beach!

Original beer, original food and original music! Youâll find a wide selection of off-centered ales (including some from our in-house experimental brewery that you wonât find anywhere else), small-batch spirits and a menu full of specialty wood-fired pizza

This place was a big surprise to us, having visited the original Dogfish Head restaurant in town many years ago. It's large and loud, and we had to yell across the table. Of course, the beer is very good, with a great selection to choose from. The highlight for us was the excellent crab & corn chowder, with just enough Old Bay to make it wonderful with a beer.

Service was great as was the food. Dropped in for lunch after several years away when it was called the Frog Pond. Not sure about dinner; the place tends to get very crowded at the end of the day. For lunch or an afternoon break, its great.

The Starboard Restaurant is Dewey's most famous venue for fun, great times, and tremendous service! It has been home-awayfrom-home for most Dewey Beach visitors over our 55+ year history. The Starboard truly holds a special place in more people's hearts t

Weâve had a place in Dewey Beach for 19 years and have never had dinner at the Starboard. Breakfast and drinks there yes, but never thought about dinner. Theyâre more known for their bar scene, not necessarily for their food. We went there at 6:30 p.m. on a Wednesday drawn in by their special of $6 Orange Crushes. Their crushes are by far the best in Dewey. While sipping on these delicious drinks, we decided to eat dinner there. We had Sands Tots as an appetizer (delicious!) and the Jerk Cobb salad and the Black & Blue burger for entree. Everything we ordered was wonderful. The portions were huge so we took half home to eat for lunch the next day (yum!). The bartender and our server, Ellicott, were attentive and friendly. Weâll definitely go back again for the food.

Visited Dewey Beer Company with high recommendation and was disappointed. Food was interesting, nachos were great. Unfortunately was only able to taste 4 beers because the server was so slow delivering drinks to the table. I would have loved to try more of what the brewery had to offer. We were also left with some rude parting words from the staff members blocking the exit by the hostess station. Hopefully it was just an off day for the staff and this isnât the way things are always run.

Woody's Dewey Beach has been serving the best crab cakes and burgers at the beach since 2009. Located at the heart of Dewey Beach, our friendly staff is here year round to provide great service and our award winning food in a fun and friendly atmosphere!
Reviewed By Webbuzzard
Crab cakes are still the way to go. Best around. We were worried that it was going to be constrained if the front porch seating was not available, but it was. Even in the rain, the side panels kept us dry, mostly. If raining, I recommend seating away from edges, though there was only the occasional drip.
