In August, General’s Kitchen, located within the Beachmark Motel on 74th Street and Coastal Highway, was informed by the property owner its lease will not be renewed.
General’s Kitchen boasts 45 years of tradition in Ocean City. Owner Robert Noll’s stepfather, Gus Bollas, and his first wife, Mary Bollas, opened the restaurant in the George Washington Hotel on 10th Street and the Boardwalk where it received its name in honor of General George Washington.
When there was discussion of demolishing the hotel, General’s Kitchen moved to its current location on 74th Street in the early 1980s. Previously, it was home to a bank.
Bollas later remarried to Noll’s mother, Angela Bollas, who took over the restaurant when he passed away in April of 2000, and when she passed away this past December, the family business was passed onto Noll.

General's is located across the highway from Little House of Pancakes. Both businesses have waiting lines on weekends. I made the mistake of first trying the Pancake place. Big mistake. The bacon my wife and I was served was rancid (literally) and was black as if it were burned. I had planned to try General's next but word of their move has put that off. I'll never revisit the pancake again though so it's wait and learn where to try the General at their next home.
ReplyDeleteMaybe the café in the Bay Sails Inn just south of Rt 90 is available. It's been lacking for lack of a better term, since Coach's Corner left.
