Not sure if this should go under the Stores Guide or Restaurant Guide?

Menu is best found by searching for images.  Last night we went to Captain White's to pick up some food to eat before a concert at the Anthem.  We got: Fried shrimp, hush puppies, MD crab soup and fries.  I thought the Maryland Crab soup was the win of the group.  It had really good flavor, I should have just gotten a large and some hush puppies.  The hush puppies were fine, I think they are likely better on a day that things are hopping down there, due to the weather it wasn't a prime choice last evening, but they weren't bad.  Hubby wanted some melted butter with them, I thought they were fine plain.  I think he prefers smaller hush puppies, but he is more into them than I am, I like plain cornbread, so I am fine with a large hush puppy.  The fried shrimp were fine, nothing bad, nothing special, fine, a nice portion for the price, fried fresh to order. The I think Ken's brand cocktail sauce they give you is really sweet- I normally make my own, so maybe commercial cocktail sauce is sweeter than I expect. Anyway, we got our meal and went up and stood at one of the tables up by the falafel shop, which worked well.  We weren't really in the mood for a sit down meal, and this worked well so we could get in and get good seats for the show.

[Katelin, I first went to Captain White's in the 1980s, and haven't been in probably twenty years - does it have any chairs and tables, or is it strictly carryout? (Chairs and tables usually seals the deal.) There's a nebulous borderland when a place sells prepared foods (like a bakery, or a food truck) about whether it's "Shopping" or "Dining" - I usually make the call on a case-by-case basis, often giving a place a thread in each forum (one for food that you eat there, another for food that you buy and take home)]

Don,

There are outdoor tables throughout the Wharf, and they have a covered pavilion right there, but not chairs and no inside- so I think it is more carry out, but a huge amount of people in summer at the Wharf go there and eat on the stairs at the Wharf right there. It is a weird no man's land of- I think they do a lot of business for people who eat it right there.  That is part of their menu above, they have a whole other huge amount of items on another board that include sandwiches, soups, other combos of things and specials. Just FYI.
