Cambridge Main Street

With our unique blend of shopping, art, music, dining, recreation and history set against a picturesque waterfront backdrop, it's easy to see why Historic Downtown Cambridge was featured in Coastal Living magazine.

An exciting renaissance is under way in this historic waterfront city. Stately storefronts are now home to stylish boutiques and galleries featuring homegrown art. One-of-a-kind shops offer antiques, jewelry, home decor, gourmet foods, and more. Downtown streets have been redone with period lighting and fresh plantings. Classic old buildings are being returned to their former glory.

Yet Eastern Shore traditions remain as strong as ever here. You can learn about Chesapeake ways in our museums, get a sense for them in our architecture, and get a taste of them in our restaurants.

In downtown Cambridge, you'll find old-fashioned Chesapeake charm comes with a fun, contemporary touch. Come see for yourself why Downtown Cambridge is the Eastern Shore's next big thing.
