The Delaware City Hotel was established in 1830, and at the time it was known as the Sterling Hotel. Now, it’s home to Crabby Dick’s, a goofy seafood restaurant that serves up delicious meals with a great view of the river. The good food isn’t the only draw, though – the building is said to be haunted by several ghosts. Are you brave enough to dine with them?
Find the restaurant at 30 Clinton St., Delaware City DE 19706
