If you’re out on the water for a day, it’s easy to work up an appetite! That’s why Delawareans are lucky to have several boat-in restaurants that make it easy to cruise up for a great meal. Most of these spots are on the ocean coast, though, but if you’re looking for a place to eat on the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal, you’ve got to dine at Grain H2O.

Grain H2O is part of a small local chain of Grain restaurants, each one with its own special twist.

They have a location on Main Street in Newark and near the Cape May-Lewes Ferry docks in Lewes, and their amazing food has won them all sorts of "Best Of" awards from Delaware Today over the years.
As you might have guessed by their name, Grain H2O is a waterfront location - and you can even boat right up and park in one of their guest boat slips!

The Summit North Marina is located on the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal, making Grain the perfect place to stop for anyone cruising through the canal between the Chesapeake Bay and Delaware River.
The menu here is craft American fare. You'll find burgers, BBQ, tacos, nachos, and wings, but this is far from a fast-food joint! Everything is made fresh to order and with locally-sourced and inspired ingredients.
