Her food is fabulous along with a great atmosphere and view of the Bay. Usually we make the trip by boat, dock at the public dock and walk up to the restaurant. It was a great day in Betterton and Barbara's as usual. Problem was that people were sitting outside and a rain storm came up which threw the kitchen into a frenzy trying to slow down the food for the people outside until the rain stopped. Amazing view! There is outdoor & indoor seating.
Great food!!! Especially the Cajun Salmon wrap. Barbara is a gourmet chef and was on Chopped with Bobby Flay. Best Scotch eggs I ever had. Wife really enjoyed her burger, although it didn't arrive as she ordered it. Relaxing. It's really the only restaurant in Betterton. Shrimp were super fresh and pesto just ok. Biggest complaint was price of pesto special. Just wish they had put price on board of pesto as we would have ordered something else.We have eaten here time and time again. Pricing and participation may vary.The story is simple... Highly recommend, and will be back.BOTB is an obsolete gem on the eastern shore! Even though it was hot outside we were on the deck for the tremendous view and the food. Thank you Barbara for such a wonderful experience and we will be regulars!This restaurant has one of the best views in Kent County. We try to go once or twice a month, you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Delicious! Service out of the gate wasn't great, but they were busy. Oyster po' boy was delicious. The draft beer was very uniquely great, and the food was outstanding.

Owner is there every night and introduces herself. Came here for lunch based on yelp reviews and everything was great!
Went there for the first time, my husband and I had a free night and enjoyed the atmosphere!Hadn’t been to Betterton in quite some time so was pleasantly surprised to find such a great restaurant here. Children’s menu is basic a few items but very kid friendly. After dinner we went to the brand new playground to wear the kids out even more!
Definitely worth the trip to the tiny little gem of a town.This place is off the beaten path but well worth the drive.

Is this place a possibility?Is the beach nearby swimmable? "This was small subway store part of two store building. I ordered veggie delite foot long sandwich with selected fresh veggies. have been to Barbara's several times. Barbara is a gourmet chef and was on Chopped with Bobby Flay. They have a nice little selection of craft beers and view of the Chesapeake Bay, if you sit in the right seats.
