Blackbeard's Inn is one of my very favorite restaurants in town.
Blackbeard’s features a wide variety of excellent seafood along with some outstanding beef dishes. This is done at very reasonable prices. All of the seafood dishes are good. My personal favorites are the shrimp and crab Louie salads.
The biggest surprise is that they also feature the best prime rib and when some is left over they feature an excellent beef barbecue sandwich special the next day. The salad bar is very good featuring a Cole slaw that is outstanding. They also serve an outstanding Reuben sandwich and the best hush puppies.
When you consider the wide variety of excellent food at very reasonable prices and a staff of experienced, fast and pleasant waiters and waitresses, it is easy to understand why the place is usually packed.
