I come occasionally when they have a sale and I'm in the mood for their chicken. I came in, placed the order, paid at the counter, and waited to pick it up. My order was ready in a decent time. The chicken was just ok for me and the wedges too. I believe that you have to go to the right RF at the right time, when the right cook is there to have the best fried chicken experience l. The problem with that is you never know when those things will line up! It's the luck of the draw. All in all, RF CAN have the best "World Famous" fried chicken; you just have to be lucky enough to be there to get it at that time.

We stopped here on our way to Pennsylvania for one of our favorites -- Phillip's Cream of Crab Soup (5/5). Centrally located between the northbound and southbound roadways, Maryland House is easily accessed from the left lane. It is bright and airy with a variety of food options in addition to Phillip's. Table seating is in the central open area, and there are tables outside as well. There are rest rooms, an information center, and large parking lots.

It has added so much depth and feeling to my life. One thing that it has not improved, however, is long car rides. I don't think I need to explain more, but children (and babies in particular) are logistical nightmares. Thank God for Smyrna rest stop. Conventiently close to the highway, it offers fairly clean bathrooms, gardens, trees and a full playground. The only thing it lacks is a decent lunch option. (I think this is a state issue, DE doesn't allow fast food at state rest areas) Realistically then, this may be the best legally, most legally compliant rest area in all of Delaware, and a welcome oasis for road weary parents and babies.

This is a very nice rest area with an attached tourist information center. There are two sets of…read morerestrooms, helping ensure that a clean facility is always available. The rest area appears to have originally been built to serve US-13, before DE-1 was constructed. When traveling southbound on DE-1, finding the entrance can be a little confusing. Fortunately, there is a direct ramp from the parking area back onto southbound DE-1. The grounds include gardens, picnic areas, plenty of parking, and numerous other amenities. Depending on where you park, however, it can be a fairly long walk to the restrooms. Like the somewhat confusing access from DE-1, the walk is only a minor inconvenience at an otherwise outstanding public rest area.

Bathrooms were clean. Don't start thinking that you've escaped the DC traffic. There's more to come. It's worth noting the historical marker, since that's also my thing. It reads: The Neabsco Mills Ironworks complex, under the ownership of three generations of the Tayloe family, of Richmond County, operated between 1737 and 1828. Located near this site, it was one of the longest continuously operating ironworks in present-day Northern Virginia. The 5,000-acre iron plantation, which was worked by resident free laborers, indentured servants, and slaves, was a multifaceted operation. The workers produced not only pig and bar iron for sale at home and export to Great Britain, but also engaged in shipbuilding, milling, leatherworking, shoemaking, and farming. The complex was an important supplier of iron for weaponry during the American Revolution and the War of 1812. (Probably used during the Civil War, too.)

It wasn't anything fancy -- just some vending machines and separate bathrooms. No biggie. My only annoyance was how long it took to get there. I don't understand the layout of exiting the highway, remaining next to it for a while, and *then* pulling in. Why couldn't they just let us exit like any normal rest stop? At least merging on was much easier. Toilets were clean. Would work in a pinch.

One is located at the very entrance of the building, and one towards the back (near the food court). I ordered an "Iced White Mocha", and was pleasantly surprised by the quality.
