A no-fuss neighborhood tavern on Church Hill Road where the drinks pour steady, the food hits the spot, and you're treated like you've known us forever.
Our Story
Back 50 Tavern sits on Church Hill Road, just outside the heart of Chestertown, and we've been serving this community with the same straightforward philosophy since day one: good drinks, honest food, and a atmosphere that doesn't take itself too seriously.
Whether you're winding down after work, catching a game with friends, or looking for a quiet corner to unwind, our doors are open and the stool at the bar is yours. No reservations needed. No dress code. Just show up.
Classic and signature drinks made with quality spirits and fresh ingredients.
Seven days a week — we're here when you need us.
Rooted in Chestertown. We source local when we can and keep it real.
The Bar
From a cold craft beer on tap to a carefully shaken old fashioned, we've got something for everyone.
Rotating taps featuring local Maryland brews and regional favorites. From hoppy IPAs to smooth stouts — there's always something new to try.
Our house cocktails are mixed with intention. Ask about the Back 50 Old Fashioned or the Chestertown Mule — both crowd favorites for a reason.
A curated wine list and a full spirits menu to match. By the glass or by the bottle — our staff will help you find the right pour.
The Kitchen
We keep the menu tight and the portions honest. No pretension, no tiny plates — just solid bar food done right. Burgers, sandwiches, wings, and more, all made fresh and served fast.
Double-stacked, crispy-edged, and topped with your choice of cheese. Served with hand-cut fries.
Crispy wings tossed in your heat level — mild, medium, hot, or our signature coral glaze.
Loaded nachos, pretzel bites, fries, and more. Perfect for the table.
What's Happening
