Other things to note Happy Hour is a perfect place to unwind and get lost in the panoramic Potomac River view. There are restaurants — 1 just before you come on the island (Captain John’s) and 1 that is on the island (Scuttlebutt), which offer a variety of food). Yummy. You’ll pass Bubba’s Place on Hwy 257 on your left on your last stretch to Cobb Island. It is a family owned convenience store and deli that makes great fresh sandwiches and breakfast. No frills. It’s pure Cobb Neck with good folks, great food. You may want to stop there on your way to the island to order sandwiches to have at the cottage so you can take in all the beauty and serenity. It opens at 5:30a every morning and sells coffee. (I’m pretty sure there aren’t fancy coffees like lattes, etc.). On the island is Scuttlebutt, a sports bar/restaurant/marina with delicious sandwiches and a variety menu. It definitely has a very local Cobb Island flavor, which is part of its charm and why I love to go there. They make great crab sandwiches when crab is in season. I recommend you go there at least once. And, of course, Capt. John's Crab House and Marina, a true Southern Maryland establishment. Captain John’s was opened by Capt John Shymansky in 1963. Family owned and operated for more than 50 years specializing in fresh seafood, steak, and chicken!
