Island Creamery in Chincoteague, VA

Our second year back in Chincoteague, VA wouldn’t be complete without a visit to the legendary Island Creamery—a local gem that continues to impress.

🍦 This time, we were excited to see a new sugar-free Butter Pecan ice cream on the menu—rich, creamy, and surprisingly low impact on blood sugar (for those who need to watch it). A welcome addition for anyone looking for great taste without the sugar crash.

☕ Their espresso shots and cappuccinos were fantastic, though the Americano could use a little refinement. Still, it’s clear they take pride in what they serve.

💬 The staff is as friendly as ever, and the shop remains a beloved part of the Chincoteague community. This place is more than just dessert—it’s a tradition.

🍨 Highlights:

  • New Sugar-Free Butter Pecan Ice Cream
  • Espresso & Cappuccino
  • Friendly, Community-Focused Service
  • A Must-Visit Stop for Any Chincoteague Trip

Seafood Feast at Steamers in Chincoteague, VA

Looking for the best seafood spot in Chincoteague, Virginia? We hit up Steamers Restaurant on a guy’s weekend trip—and it did not disappoint.

Known for its ultra-fresh crab legs, clams, and oysters, Steamers was the perfect stop for my seafood-loving friends. But even as the odd man out, I found a gem: their Friday Night Prime Rib Special, which was unexpectedly fantastic.

Big shoutout to the amazing staff at Steamers—super friendly and very patient, especially with our wildcard, Pipey Rob (a.k.a. the remorseless eating machine). Let’s just say… the bottomless crab legs never stood a chance.

📍 Location: Steamers Restaurant, Chincoteague, VA
🍽️ Highlights: Prime Rib Special, Crab Legs, Clams, Oysters
👨‍👨‍👦‍👦 Vibes: Laid-back, fun, and perfect for big groups
🤣 Bonus: Watch Pipey Rob go full beast mode on a mountain of seafood

Man Trip – Fall 2023 – Gettysburg, Pa

Fall 2023 has arrived and it was time for another Man Trip! This fall, we decided to visit Gettysburg, PA for our fall “man trip”. We hung out downtown, visited the battlefield, did a (terrible) ghost tour.

We also discovered a cool burger joint called Gettysburger. The food was good and the staff was really nice.

You know this group loves breakfast… and the Lincoln Diner delivered. Fast, cheap, and had friendly service – what more could you ask for?

Man Trip: Pond Eddy, NY

My friends and I did another weekend “Man Trip”, this time in Pond Eddy, NY. The house was very open and light, but unfortunately the weather prevented more adventurous outings, so we had to find other ways to entertain ourselves (beverages and BBQ).
