Red Eye's Dock Bar

If you're expecting friendly, attentive service, stay away from Red Eye.  A group of friends and I (all of whom have been in the bar business for 30 plus years combined) went there early June this year.  We went to the bar where we were greeted with a head nod, and keep in mind that this was a relatively slow day.  After ordering a round of beers, the bartender seemed to roll her eyes as if we were asking too much of her (God forbid we order drinks at a bar).  Since we all are in the bar business, we understood that some days, you just do not want to deal with any customers, so we didn't hold it against her, but when it happened every time with different bartenders, we became very irritated.  It took so long to order drinks that we sobered up between rounds (exaggeration obviously but you get the point).  We were so displeased with the service that we tipped lower than we ever have.  I have never tipped under 20% and it broke my heart for the first time to tip 10%.  The service was simply atrocious and needless to say, I will never go back there.  Just because a bartender works at a hot tourist spot, it does not mean that he or she can treat customers neglectfully.  Sorry Red Eye bartenders, you could have made a lot of money that day if you took two seconds out of your day to at the very least smile or act as if you wanted to be there.

HH from 4-9. 1/2 price draft. $2 domestics. $3 rail. $3 wine.

Btw, I am in the bar and Yelp won't let me check in.

If you've ever fondly enjoyed a trip to a bar right near the water (the ones in Miami and the poolside joints in Vegas come to mind), don't even think about heading out to this one, unless you want to be monumentally disappointed...although if you do come to grips with the fact that you actually are in Grasonville, MD, don't mind the lack of cultural diversity, and just need some liquor in your system while in lounging in beachwear, this joint will hit the spot real good. You also gotta give this joint some credit though, the band they've got  performing on Sunday afternoon does attract a large crowd, even though they can't sing for jack...this place is also literally right beside the seafood smorgasbord known as Harris Crab House, so it's a convenient joint to sweat off the smell of the crabs still reeking from your clothes.
