We are in awe how good the smoked meats are and the brick oven pizza is amazing. The smoked chicken was delicious and the pit beef was cooked to perfection as temperature requested. The owner, Chris, is present and delivers great platters with his culinary team. The servers are all professional and friendly. Annie and Kristi at the outdoor dining area/tiki bar are fantastic. Michael and Jake are also very accommodating. Stacy, Cali, Stacy, and the inside team are also attentive. The pizza master is competent and the food runners all work together. Great menu and atmosphere and staff!

Had been hearing great things about this new resturant so we took the drive down to beautiful Tilghman Island to check ot out. We weren’t disappointed!! The food and drinks were outstanding. We had an assortment of sandwiches which were all awesome. The crabcake was incredible, as were the two different kinds of wings we tried. The food was so good we literally orded sandwiches to take home and eat the next day. The drinks were also incredible! The rum punch and orange crush were some of the best ive ever had! Take a trip by car or boat you wont be disappointed!

Still a fairly new ownership of the bar, still getting it together. Google’s listed website goes to the website for the previous name and ownership and says the bar doesn’t exist anymore.
The phone number that’s listed also doesn’t work.
So, I went to the bar and the hostess said they closed at 9 PM, however, another lady said that might not be the case that I should go ahead and order because they might close at 6 PM if there weren’t enough people there. While I was there, there was a a party at the bar and at least one or two parties in the dining area . So, on that lady’s advice, I ordered half rack of ribs, the tomato onion, and cucumber salad, and the old bay fries , TO GO.
I was shocked at how quickly they had that order out to me within five minutes. I paid and walked my to go bag out to the car, looked in it, and realized I had no utensils or napkins, so I went back in and the lady that told me that she wasn’t sure what time they were gonna close, went back and got me the utensils and napkins that I needed. Ultimately, it was a good experience, as long as you’re paying attention to what you’re getting.
The ribs were excellent. A large serving, juicy, tender, and the sauce was delicious. The salad was also very tasty, although put in a to-go cup that was a pretty small serving. There was an abundance of fries, but they were a little soggy, and I really couldn’t taste the old bay flavor that was advertised.
Still, the ribs made it all worthwhile.
I think, and hope that, with a little more time, the staff will figure it out, and management will get their info on Google maps together.
Their Facebook page has a lot of information, as does their Instagram.
So, if you’re in Tilghman Island anytime soon, you should check out big Mack’s!

We stopped in for lunch to check out the new restaurant, which is now Big Mack’s Kitchen and Dock Bar. It was the best barbecue we have had in a long time. Ribs, pit beef, two types of fries, and without a doubt the best potato salad I’ve ever had. The super friendly owner/chef came out and chatted with us, saying that everything is made in house (except for the bread), and you could certainly tell. The tastes were wonderful, seasoned and smoked perfectly. Highly recommended.

Love this place! It’s so nice to sit at the outside bar and watch the boats and the scenery. In the cooler months, the inside bar is warm and inviting, and a great place to watch your favorite team on Sunday afternoons.
The service is always outstanding and the atmosphere is perfect for Tilghman Island. We are fortunate to have Big Mack’s Kitchen and Dock Bar! Chef Chris is top notch.
Come check it out, you won’t be disappointed!

We had a blast and the ribs were great. The Iced Tea was the best I have had all summer. They make fresh crushes here too.

I had an absolutely amazing dining experience at Big Mac’s Kitchen and Dock Bar on Tilghman Island! The food was out of this world — every bite tasted fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Chef and owner Chris takes incredible pride in his craft, using only top-quality ingredients and making everything from scratch, right down to the cocktail sauce and the blue cheese dip for the wings. You can truly taste the difference in every dish. The staff was equally impressive — friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. The atmosphere is relaxed yet vibrant, perfectly capturing the island’s charm. With 5-star food, amazing drinks, and a beautiful waterfront setting, this place is a true gem. Don’t bother stopping at St. Michaels, keep driving the short distance through to Big Mac’s – a must-visit on Tilghman Island!

Went for the 2nd time to get the M5 Chicken Sandwhich. Perfection! We also got the wood fired pizza, shrimp salad sandwich, smash burger and pulled pork sandwich. All delicious! The hand cut potatoe chips have such a yummy seasoning and are perfectly crisp! The views and quiet atmosphere are so nice. We sat outside. Staff were all extremely nice and super attentive. Will go back again and again!

Recommended to us by a local. Arrived about 5. Staff were cleaning under tables. Design/decor was basic but for me the food is most important. Seemed to be they were training a number of students to be servers. Staff were pleasant and happy to serve us our order of artichoke dip which my husband liked and crab soup which was too salty for me but not for my husband. I mentioned it to our server but he and my husband ended up laughing it off.
I would return to try something else.

Big Mack’s is a must-stop for us every time we visit St. Michael’s, the short extra drive is worth it. The Hawaiian plate and chicken cheesesteak are absolutely delicious, and the hand cut fries are the best around.
