One of my favorite lunch spots. Owned and operated by local Ambrose Farm. The shrimp is right off their boats. Doesn't get any fresher. Best crab cakes http://www.foodandwine.com/slideshows/best-crab-cakes-in-the-us/16 You pick strawberries and blueberries at the Ambrose Family Farm. Fresh veggies, grass fed beef, deserts and grab and go side dishes available as well as gift items.
