A moment for the nightly stars of the show 🩰

Sweater weather is setting in and these will help warm you up from the inside out.

We are just one month away from our very first Field & Tide Festival!

What to expect?

We’ll be celebrating the rich food culture of the Chesapeake Bay with a collaborative Dinner on Friday evening - with Chefs Mike Correll, Chris Connor Morgan, and Chef Gerald Addison - followed by a daytime Fair on Saturday where you’ll be able to sample composed bites from each Chef, alongside additional offerings from Bark Barbecue, Metompkin Bay Oysters, and Harris Creek Oyster Co..

Eden Town Brewing Company, Other Half Brewing, and Ruse will be ready with drinks to accompany your food, and Kentavius Jones will be providing the beats.

Join us by purchasing your ticket at the link below - and don’t forget to reserve your overnight stay at The Wildset if you’re attending both events!

Maryland’s public oyster season officially opened with the first of the month, which means it’s the time of year where you can pair the most enjoyable weather with the freshest seafood!

Eating outside is a bonus 🤌

Stop by the raw bar on arrival to see what’s newly in for the day, and opt for something chilled and bubbly from the drinks menu for the perfect date night.

Hospitality isn’t an industry for everyone.

It’s long nights, early starts, and heavy lifting,
It’s being called in on your day off to put out a fire,
It’s pivoting and coming up with a new plan an hour before service (or sometimes in the middle),
It’s not glamorous - but it’s our one and only goal to ensure it feels that way to you, the guest. 

-

If you find someone who knows how to talk the talk, walk the walk, and is willing to take the rough with the smooth, to celebrate the wins and commiserate the losses, you try to keep them around as long as possible.

We’re lucky that Tanner chose to do that with us for the last four years, and we’re incredibly excited to see where life takes him next, and who gets the next opportunity to enjoy his cheeky smile, great energy, and hard working spirit.

Cheers!
