It’s hard to find an old general store these days. In fact, we previously listed a handful of them here and they continue to dwindle in the Old Line State. We recommend visiting the ones that are left, and that especially includes the following general store turned eatery. Check out this charming spot that has transformed into a delicious place to eat, while still retaining its history and character.
Barbely's Family Restaurant is located in Newark, which isn't too terribly far from Ocean City.
When it comes to the food, you can't go wrong. The menu is full of filling classics that will remind you of your grandmother's cooking. Crispy and juicy fried chicken, anyone?
If you're someone who enjoys a bit of history and classic homemade cooking, then Barbely's Family Restaurant is worth a visit. Trust us, the drive is worth it.
