I'm riding from Williamsport to Whites Ferry Saturday and planning to grab a bite in Shepherdstown and either Harper's Ferry or Brunswick while en route.

Suggestions for some quick and yummy places to grab a bite at these spots?

I had a pretty good meal at the Potomac Grill in Harper's Ferry while passing through a couple weeks ago.

I also had a good little BLT sandwich at the little snack shop/grill right there on the shore at White's Ferry as well.

Have fun. I'm jealous. Ha. (I live too far away to ride there often.)

Didn't cross the bridge to Harpers Ferry, too much of a hassle. Brunswick, Beans in the Belfry was good, ice water and a hose to rinse bike. Shephardstown, Bettys Restaurant was good. Snack shop at White's Ferry looked good, right off the trail, loaded up on supplies but didn't have time to eat there as the rain was imminent.

IMO it is well worth the trouble to cross the bridge to Harper's Ferry. It turned out to be one of my favorite stops on the whole ride from Pitt to DC. We stayed and ate at The Mountain House. I highly recommend it.

Agree - I don't find crossing the bridge that big of a hassle. Well worth taking a look around downtown Harpers Ferry. And...there's always ice cream for desert!

Shepherdstown has better dining options than HF. Take it from a local. Blue Moon is casual, with a great menu and outdoor seating. Maria's Taqueria is casual, quick and cheap with great food. Betty's is the best diner breakfast food around even at lunchtime, not open for dinner. Everything else is fancier, costlier, or too far away. Can't go wrong. But if you have time, take a walk over to lower town Harpers Ferry. Great history and a couple of OK restaurants with outdoor seating. Eat in Shep, sightsee in HF. Good Luck!
