Fresh-caught, golden-fried fish is a way of life in Maryland, and these local seafood shacks prove why. At Chesapeake Seafood in Edgewater, the fish is so fresh it might’ve been swimming that morning—grab it to-go and taste the difference. The Crab Shack Edgewater keeps it classic with fried cod sandwiches that taste like family secrets. Phillips Seafood in Baltimore is a generations-old institution, and Headwaters in Easton puts a creative spin on tradition. Whether you’re after crispy blue catfish, legendary soft-shell crabs, or just a picnic table with a view, these spots serve up the flavors that define Maryland.
