The $30 crab cake sandwich was small, unseasoned and cold. The upcharge for fruit instead of the chips was $9 for 3 strawberries and 10 blueberries. Nice server but she was busy on a beautiful day. I don’t my spending money. It was out first and last time there and we have been coming to St. Michaels since the late seventies.

Too expensive. An overly long wait time for subpar brunch that could easily have been made yourself. Overall meh with a snooty vibe of “take it or leave it, as long as you give us a big tip,” regardless of service.

Understaffed and overpriced. We only ordered a cinnamon bun from the bakery and waited almost 45 minutes when the restaurant was basically empty. The couple sitting next to us had a similar experience. We will not be back. Very disappointing.

Enjoyed lunch here. The seafood was very nice, with great oysters on the half shell. The crab cakes were full of good tasting chunky bits of crab, but there was not a lot of binding agent, so they tended to fall apart. That's always a balancing act between too much and too little. These were not the in top tier of what I've had in Maryland. Another issue was bathroom up a narrow stairway. This was really hard on my elderly mother, so if you have disabilities, be aware.

We stopped here for lunch the day after Thanksgiving and even though it was crowded the service was great. The food was even better. Even all 3 kids raved about their meals.

Came here after the Christmas Parade, got seated immediately which was nice. Once seated we ordered drinks and had no issue with them. However, once we ordered food, we waited 45 minutes for mediocre food at best. My friend and I got the biscuits and gravy. STALE! Hard as a rock, couldn't even cut into it without sawing it with the butter knife. Another person in my party got the chicken salad (salad) and claimed it tasted like nothing. She left 3/4th's of the plate, not even worth taking it home. Despite the food quality, the waitress was very sweet and endearing. But overall, save your money, too pricey for what you get!

Probably close to the worst Eggs Benedict I have ever experienced. Scrambled eggs does not belong on Benedict it’s poached. That’s what people pay for and freshly made lemony hollandaise sauce. I don’t know who makes this thick tasteless goo but they need to go back to culinary school and learn the basics. Not even the crab cakes could make up for the sad effort its neighbours on the plate made. The price is not listed on the reason. We paid $190 inc tax for 3 eggs bene and one bacon and eggs with coffee or tea. Ridiculous pricing and an utter tourist trap rip off. I do not mind paying for quality but this is not it. I would feel sorry for the locals but I dare say they don’t frequent this establishment.

We had brunch here and sat outside on a wonderful day. The food, drinks and staff were great. Lots of nice touches - pillows on the chairs, blankets for those that wanted them in the fall air, fire pits going. We liked it so much we came back for breakfast the next day! We also spent some time chatting with the owner who was wonderful. Highly recommend The Galley!

A nice in town find at St. Michaels. I live receiving hot food. The food came out hot and the service was prompt. I didn't like the fact that the folks passed a 4 percent credit card fee on to me. I also didn't like that there was a sign in the toilet that read, "don't try to fix the toilet" let the manager know if it's not working. If you have a sign in your toilet that lets me know, I'm in the wrong restaurant.

The food was a bit plain. I do not recommend the cheese tots. Our server was great. Our table was positioned so that one of our seats was in a doorway, and it made the dining experience a bit stressed as people knocked into us a few times. Bad place for a table!
