Booze and food is great!! Love this place!
From their signature St. Mary's County-Style Stuffed Ham (Big fan of the egg roll version) to the irresistible homemade Rum Cakes (Vanilla and Strawberry flavors are delicious!), they offer some of the most unique and delicious food, snacks and desserts in the whole county. Made even better by the amazingly friendly and helpful staff, WJ Dent is an absolute gem!
Biggest sandwiches around. Peaceful area also.

WJ Dent & Sons/Chief's Your Neighborhood Bar is a classic dive bar and locals hangout. The local specialty stuffed ham is a must try. It is a favorite place to get stuffed ham, with one customer driving over 6 hours round trip from the Eastern Shore to get it several times a year. The stuffed ham sandwich, stuffed ham rolls, stuffed ham pizza, eggrolls, Philly cheese steak, and chicken salad are all mentioned as delicious. The food is terrific 100% of the time, year after year. The staff work really hard to make customers feel welcome and attend to all food/beverage needs. The wait staff is friendly and helpful. There is a 1.5 hour dining limit. This is a criticism, as it can be a total bummer when a party finds themselves a minute into dessert and a fresh round of drinks and it is time to pay a $250-$300 check and leave. Some customers have had to pick up desserts and drinks and find room at the bar to finish. The atmosphere is wonderful. It is a convenient food option for those who live down the street. The pizzas are enjoyable but the quality does not seem consistent. There is limited seating, so take out is preferred by some.
