The barn bloody was $17. I wish the piece of crab had been bigger but otherwise a great drink. Coffee ~$4 was underwhelming. We split the Crab Oscar with potatoes and chicken and waffles.

We have been in September the last few times, so technically off Season. That shouldn't matter on the quality of the food. But apparently it does. The server was great. No complaints there. The food I got a scrambler and it looked like Slop, which yes a scrambler usually looks like things thrown together. But it had thick glob of cheese that was like thick and dry, and not melted at all either it had just been sitting there for a while and hardened, and underneath it was hiding old reheated dry potatoes. Bacon that look like it's been reheated just not good. The only thing I think that was freshen were the Eggs. English muffin didn't have any butter on it. Not sure if they put anything on it but my boyfriend's French toast was too cold wilted pieces of French toast that had a pound of butter slapped on. I think the butter from the whole restaurant was on his plate. I mean, we won't even feed our dog The waiter came over to ask you if everything was great and my boyfriend said no can we just have to check and then when he asked what was wrong we told him. And at least they gave us the food free of charge. We didn't eat any of it and I tipped the server because it wasn't his fault but we will never be back. The past couple of times we've gotten a fresh squeeze orange juice and it's not freshly squeeze at all. It used to be years ago, but this place has gone downhill. I don't know if you're doing one thing during in season. You should still be serving good food when the season is over like why should it matter. We gave enough chances, barn 34 no more.

The crepes were flavorful yet super sweet and they were huge - definitely couldn't finish it all in one sitting.

However, you can get a basic omelette which is just a plate of eggs, and separate small plates of bacon for pickier eaters. The place is pretty big, with a lot of indoor seating as well as outdoor. Everything is decorated with flowers and little strawberries. Overall, our experience was great!

WOW! Talk about a diamond in the rough…read more I've passed by this place plenty of times and had written it off as just another dive spot that struggles to stay alive. After ready the reviews I decided to give it a try. I was so pleasantly surprised. The food was great. The staff were very friendly and polite. I'm on the fence about the ambiance. The decor was late 80s dinner with allot of Greatful Dead memorabilia. However, while it definitely shows its age and could use some updating, it seems to present a charm that would be lost with new decor. The shades, window treatments and flooring are dated, but not dingy and dirty. The tables and chairs are lacquered hardwood and scared from years of service, but each scar bears witness to the number of customers who have eaten here. We came in for breakfast, in the off season and nearly every table was filled, but we were still immediately seated. Our waiter JR was prompt, professional and very friendly. He checked on us no less than 4 times, after we got our food. I figured breakfast is a little too easy to test a restaurant on. Anyone can scramble and egg, or make pancakes. I decided to test them against my own Ruben recipe (which I maintain is the best there ever will be). To my surprise, though it wasn't quite as good as my own, it's the closest I have had from any restaurant. Kudos to the chef on that. My wife finished her breakfast plate (which she never does) and my son left with stomach pain from eating too much. I reserve 5 star ratings for places that truly knock my socks off, and show me something completely unexpected. I was torn on this one. On one hand, I was completely taken by surprise on how wrongly prejudiced I was of this place for so long. But, while the food quality was good, it didn't knock my socks off. I wish I could give it 4.5 stars. Hands down, the best breakfast spot in Ocean City that I've been to thus far!

We saw some good ratings and gave this place a shot and we weren't disappointed. We were greeted by a friendly and welcoming staff who helped us make the right selection. As my wife was fasting, she went with a small fruit bowl, my son chose shortstack pancakes, and I tried the veggie hash. The fruit bowl was decorated well and had plenty of variety. From blueberries, strawberries, kiwi, watermelons, apples, bananas, and others, all the fruits were fresh and perfectly ripe. The pancakes were very large and just one would have been more than enough for two people it seems but they even added berries for my son on them. The veggie hash had lots of potential. It was cooked well, however, lacked seasoning. It seemed slightly bland and I had to utilize ketchup to give it some identity. However, the quality and variety of veggies inside was great. Overall, I am giving four stars due to the fact that the prices are high, but the service and quality are worth it; especially for such a close location to the boardwalk.

Our main motivation for visiting was to see Jordan and Cowan, both of whom previously worked at Off The Hook in Bethany Beach. Jordan noticed us first and came over to say hello and share an update, and Cowan followed shortly after to do the same. I enjoyed two Sazeracs on the rocks for $10 each; unique to Hooked, this iconic New Orleans cocktail is a spirit-forward blend of Elijah Craig rye whiskey, aromatic bitters, a sugar cube, and an absinthe rinse, finished with a bright lemon twist. We also shared the happy hour wood-fired grilled oysters Reggiano with butter, garlic, blackening parmesan cheese, and salt for $19, though they tasted very salty. Additionally, I had the happy hour lobster roll on a toasted buttered brioche roll for $21, substituting the french fries with a side of coleslaw. It tasted quite similar to the lobster roll at Off The Hook in Bethany Beach. I finished my meal with a happy hour draft Evo Lot 3 beer for $6. Our bartender, Jon L., served us very well throughout the visit. The total bill was $128 excluding gratuity, which featured a 3% credit card surcharge of $3.57. After applying a $50 gift letter discount, the final bill was reduced down to $81. We all agreed that we will certainly return to visit Jordan and Cowan again.
