I got the chowder in the bread bowl which was a very generous portion and so comforting and creamy. My dad also got the cheesecake and it was delicious!!! They also had a great iced latte with local honey! Get a reservation if you can but if you're lucky without a reservation, you will get a seat at the bar! I recommend!!

They have a piano right in the entrance of the restaurant and several other instruments for impromptu performances. The menu has something for everyone at all times of the day and their portions are very generous! Tried the mussels (very good!), the lentil soup (good enough for doubles), the carrot cake (so big you can share)! Definitely stop by!!!

It also gives them the opportunity to try local specialties, and usually homemade desserts. Definitely unassuming from the outside, and as stated by others, it is part of the community center building. Nothing fancy inside, but we came to eat. Everybody was wearing a smile when they walked in... One of the group is celiac and they had no problem making up a dish that took care of the need. I love homemade bread and it was perfect for my crab sandwich. Very good seafood chowder! I am a big milk drinker and it was ice cold - perfect. I will be bringing next year's tour here for a meal!

Only outdoor seating so keep that in mind, we went when it was raining so we ordered at the counter and ate in the car. The chowder and lobster roll were fresh and crisp, delicious flavours. Worth the drive! I love the view of the port right in front and the staff is very nice. It does take a bit of time to receive the order but nothing too crazy. Because of the rain they weren't full staff I believe, but that also means no line!

The place has a great outdoor patio with a fire pit for those cooler evenings and a roll-up garage door inside for those beautiful summer days. This place isn't very organized for larger groups and the staff could be a little happier if they are expecting a large tip. Food quality is ok but I would recommend somewhere else in town if you're expecting excellent seafood as this was just average.

I had the turkey club and it was not lunch meat like I expected, chunks of real turkey! Really great gluten free bread. It was too much food me with all the bread (basically 4 pieces of full sized bread). If get back here I would order it again but just have them put it in 2 pieces. I enjoyed it immensely. The fries are NOT in a dedicated fryer and are contaminated, but they can sub for mashed potatoes and they're darn good! Great waitstaff!

We tried an array of items including the fish chowder (highly recommend), scallops, seafood pasta, steak, halibut, and lobster. All were good but the standouts were the chowder and lobster dinner. We also had the complimentary breakfast every morning which was a nice perk during our stay. The quiche was a staple in the AM. Only thing missing was sausage or bacon. Would recommend if you are staying here or nearby. Since I'm from MA I've had a lot of amazing seafood in New England so it's hard to compete!

I enjoyed their fish a lot (had the salmon and the cod) but they were slightly overdone. Not enough to make me not enjoy it though. But for fish connoisseurs, you'll notice. They give you the choice of soup/salad, main meal, dessert, and plenty of drink options. The servers are quick and so friendly. I loved eating here. In the morning they serve breakfast buffet style. They offer cereals, quiche, muffins, hard boiled eggs, homemade bread, juice, coffee, yoghurt, and plenty of fruits. Sadly no bacon. Breakfast is offered from 8-10am.
