The place is nice and looks like a restaurant in the 50's. It is not too expensive also (6.99$ for a burger). However the service is not very friendly. Still a nice place to go with kids.

reminds me of the 60's diners. good food, although high in fat! need more smiles from owner and staff!

I live right around the corner from "The Reef" and I dig the scene, man.
Half price burger night rocks.
The Breakfast sandwiches are delicious.
The Coffee is Hot.
The Fries are crisp...
If you want to spend like $100 dollars on lunch go to the Hotel or Globe,
If you want good tasting inexpensive Lunch counter food go to Raynes Reef,
you will not be disappointed.

I moved to Berlin in March '06 and to be honest the service wasn't that great back then. The food has always been consistently excellent whether it is burgers, milkshakes, hot dogs or subs. Now that the season is underway Mike has hired two excellent chefs and an extremely competent waitstaff/management team that is taking the town by storm. I highly recommend stopping by Rayne's Reef!

The reviews bring back great memories. I'm from Berlin, MD originally. Born & raised there. I haven't been to Rayne's Reef in 20 years. Back when "Bob" used to cook and Tim Rayne was still there also.But, you all are right they have the BEST milkshakes ever. My Grandmother used to ike the coke floats.My grandfather(George ...

Mike makes milk shakes like they were made in the 50s! You get them served in a tall heavy glass, with the extra on the side in the metal cup that the shake was mixed in on a 50s vintage Hamilton Beach Mixer. A blessing for baby boomers, now if he would just start selling Black Jack Gum.

As Berlin local Miss Betsys favorite saying raynes reef burgers are to die for. Geez i love this place. Raynes reef is where everyone hangs out on thursday nights. Hurry up because it gets packed.

when i go on vacation to Ocean City I always drive into Berlin and eat at Rayne Reef. Their burgers are the best i have ever had. the taste so fresh! it is also neat to eat in the diner when Runaway Bride was filmed.
PLus the cook is hot!

I greatly enjoyed eating here. The menu was a little pricey; the atmosphere more than makes up for it, though. A nice family diner to enjoy any meal. You'll like it.
