Suicide Bridge Restaurant And Marina

In 1997, Nickerson purchased the Dorothy Meagan, the first of two authentic sternwheeler riverboats now docked outside the restaurant. The Choptank Riverboat Company offers private and public river cruises from mid-April through December to Cambridge and along the Choptank. With two riverboats, an outside event pavilion and an expansive main restaurant, Suicide Bridge employs 100+ people in the high season. From weddings, murder-mystery cruises, and crab feasts , the year-round business has more than tripled in three decades. Craig Cropper and Dave Nickerson believe in supporting other local businesses. The Restaurant’s extensive art collection includes a half-dozen sculptures by Dorchester metal artist Paul Lockhart.
