Welcome to The GalleyAn Elevated Culinary Experience in the Heart of Historic St. MichaelsThe Galley is more than a restaurant—it’s an experience. A place where history, hospitality, and exquisite flavors come together to create something truly special. Located in a beautifully restored 1806 landmark, The Galley Restaurant & Bar is the destination for those who appreciate fresh, high-quality cuisine, handcrafted cocktails, and warm, attentive service. Our menu is inspired by generations of family recipes, each dish telling a story of adventures at sea and on land. Everything is made to order, and our desserts are baked in-house—because we believe the best meals come from the heart. A Setting for Every OccasionThe wraparound front patio, with its inviting outdoor fireplaces, offers the perfect setting to indulge in a crisp glass of rosé while lingering over lunch. Step inside, and the Reef Room provides an intimate, elegant dining experience, while our lively Bar buzzes with energy and charm. For those looking for a more exclusive retreat, the Tree Top Lounge is a secluded sanctuary—ideal for an evening cocktail or a private rendezvous. And for unforgettable nights under the stars, our rooftop patio is the ultimate backdrop for post-wedding celebrations, champagne toasts, and intimate gatherings. A Rich Legacy, ReimaginedOriginally built in 1806 as the “Dorris House,” our historic building has been a hotel, a bank, and a private residence before becoming the premier dining destination in St. Michaels. With whispers of the past still lingering—along with a preserved Diebold Vault and captivating tales of ghostly intrigue—The Galley is where history meets modern luxury. Our PhilosophyAt The Galley, we believe in the little things: “Please” and “Thank You,” exceptional service, and the kind of hospitality that makes every guest feel like family. Locally owned and operated, we take pride in creating an atmosphere where guests feel welcomed, appreciated, and eager to return. Whether you're here for a stylish brunch, an elegant dinner, or a celebratory evening, The Galley is where elevated taste meets effortless sophistication. Sip. Savor. Shine.
