Restaurants near Newark

“I’ve lived on the Eastern Shore my whole life and finally decided to give Barbely’s a try — and I’m so glad I did! The food is absolutely phenomenal. You can immediately tell it’s home-cooked, and the entire place has that warm, family atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. The desserts were outstanding — the apple dumpling especially was amazing. I also want to recognize our server, Jenna, who provided excellent customer service, keeping everything moving smoothly while making everyone feel welcome. Drinks and food came out without delay, and it was truly a seamless operation. The front staff, including the hostess (who I believe may also be the owner), was an absolute hoot — she instantly makes you feel like part of the family. If you’re looking for comfort food with genuine hospitality, you need to check out Barbely’s. Highly recommend!”

“Had a 16th birthday party for my daughter with family in one of the outdoor “bubble tents.” The food was phenomenal and our server Amy was every bit as phenomenal as the food. We drove 2.5 hours for the experience and will do it again.”

“I called Del Vecchios Bakery for a baby shower cake and desserts! Wow! Did they turn out great! The flavor of the cake was spot on, light and moist, the strawberry cream cheese filling was fresh and rich, the icing was a light whipping topping and decorated perfectly! The cupcakes and cannolis were phenomenal! A huge thank you for helping us celebrate this beautiful life on the way!”

“Can not recommend Baked Dessert Cafe enough! They did a 10” cake and mini cupcakes that were amazing! From the ordering process to pick up was such a pleasant experience. The cake was not only beautiful but was absolutely delicious. Everyone raved about it! Thank you so much.”

“Been there several times this past year since “new people” took over. Let me tell you…what an improvement! I undersatnd why there is no draft beer (going back a few years) but theres always cold cans and bottles at a good price. Food is much more upscale in appearance and taste! Reasonable priced too. Very good breakfast as well. Staff is attentive as well. Restrooms now always have toilet paper and proper hand drying facilities. And now even Trivia as well. Keep it up!!”

“Jun & Juice is one of our favorite places to go for a refreshing smoothie! They have so many delicious combinations, that it’s always hard to choose just one! We usually end up picking up a few of their home-made juices while we are there. My favorite thing about this place is their dedication to locally sourced ingredients and their commitment to the community and to the environment. Go check them out!!!”

“Tried this place out for the first time over the weekend and were more than impressed! The pizza had the perfect blend and balance or sauce, cheese and toppings, and the gravy fries were to die for.
