Since 1979, Market Street Inn has been an icon on
the river in downtown Salisbury.
Beginning in the 60’s, the lonely, box shaped building was known as “The Huddle,” a
little sports bar owned by Baltimore Colts players. On to the late 70’s, the little box
switched hands, and was first called Market Street Inn. Outside, the box was brightened
up with a pink coat of paint, and inside they served $2 margaritas, enchiladas,
and burritos.
In 1989 a local couple purchased Market Street and created an open
air sandwich shop. They lost the pink paint and added the popular floating dock.
The tables were donned with mini golf pencils for their infamous check off menu,
where customers would check to order overstuffed, build your own sandwiches.
Within the past six years, now owner, and president Rob Mulford has transformed the
establishment into a true dining experience. Adding the outside boardwalk and
courtyard for summer dining, and glassing in the indoor porch for a comfortable winter
dinner. The Salisbury Chamber of Commerce recognized Mulford’s efforts to establish
a benchmark for others to strive to meet when choosing to renovate a business,
by honoring him with the Fred P. Adkins Architectural Enhancement Award in
2006.
Market Street Inn is now known for it’s extensive wine selection, gourmet culinary
conception, and superb service, while still maintaining a casual local flair.
In 28 years MSI has evolved from a little, open air sandwich shop and bar, to a
casually upscale restaurant and pub. Rob instills in his staff his mission of
“good food, good service, in a clean environment”
Market Street has been nationally recognized in Wine Spectator and Wine Enthusiast
magazines for exceptional wine list, and selection.
MSI values every guest, and strives to make each meal a
true dining experience.
