Motts Creek Inn

Mott’s Creek Inn is definitely more bar than restaurant. It has great views of the waterways. Indoor and outdoor seating. We sat in the indoor bar but big windows to see outside. Service was fine but the kitchen was SLOW, we waited almost an hour for our food. I enjoyed my crab cake sandwich, it would have been better with a really good slice of a Jersey tomato. I was told the crab cake was made in-house. My hubby said the burger was fine just salty, so overseasoned. The fries were lame. :( There is a fee to pay with credit card. The place was very busy. The bartender did apologize for the wait and thanked us for our patience. The live music was very entertaining and lively.

A local/casual bar with views of the water. Excellent service and good food.

Hidden Gem with a Killer View (and Killer Flies) ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ After kayaking our arms into jelly, we stumbled upon this waterside wonder—and boy, are we glad we did! Tucked along the salt marsh, the view alone is worth the visit. Think National Geographic, but with better snacks. Let’s talk food: The only flop? The calamari. Poor little rings of rubbery regret. They were so overfried, I think they briefly reincarnated as tires. Sent them back with love and a tear. But redemption came quickly… The crab cakes? Glorious. Moist, not masked by a pound of breadcrumbs or a rogue spice rack. Just pure crabby joy. Shrimp tacos? A masterpiece. We even joked (half-seriously) that next time we’ll ask for sausage on the side—because why not chase seafood bliss with a little meat? Shrimp & crab salad with

Absolutely loved it here! We got raw oysters, peel and eats, steamed clams and muscles in white. Everything was very delicious and fresh. The views were spectacular, and the bar was comfortable, fun, and had great vibes. We had a great time. Our bartender was Daphne - she was friendly, attentive and funny. We will definitely be back! Wish we lived closer and could be here all the time.

My favorite place to drive my ski up to on a hot day. I love there happy hour deals on food. They make amazing onion rings. Nothing beats enjoying a meal with such a perfect view! Definitely worth the boat ride or drive depending on how you arrive. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. During the summer the green heads are a nightmare and in the fall there are tons of bees. Not to worry that’s why you can dine inside if you can’t escape them.
