It came with a small bowl of corn and a baked potato. My wife got the chili stuffed baked potato and said that it was very filling and satisfying. Very cold beer on tap among other spirits to choose from I would highly recommend stopping in here if you're passing through Wiscasset.

The drinks are great with a good beer selection of local breweries and the standards. I didn't see that they had seafood specials, but they do have fried oysters and clams and lobsters here with a giant lobster roll for those in Maine looking for that seafood fix the food that went by my table looked awesome Just a note that they are dog friendly for their outdoor seating area so that's always a plus for us. If we had known in advance, we would've brought our lab with us because we take her everywhere. Service was excellent!!

**November 2025: Friday Early Afternoon Visit**…read more My friend and I were wandering Wiscasset and were in need of a restroom. We couldn't find one and decided to dine in to use their facilities. I think we were among the first diners and realized that the restaurant was really nice and had such a wonderful view of the water. Our server was incredibly kind and hospitality. She informed us that the soup of the day was clam chowda to which both of us wanted right away. The chowda was flavorful and had a good amount of clams (many other restaurants choose to load it with potatoes, but not this one!). The soup does lean more brothy versus gravy-like which is a personal preference but taste wise it was still soothing. The menu had a lot of really great seafood options so I decided to try their Maine mussels. Our waitress said that the broth was really wonderful and would pair nicely with garlic bread which I also ordered. The entrees came out pretty quickly and the serving size of my mussels was double what I thought it would be. The mussels looked massive and the meat was as fresh mussels should taste. It was an excellent dish. The garlic bread would be a great vessel to soak up the mussel broth, but I felt that the bread was a little thin and slightly over-toasted to really soak up the broth. Nevertheless, I really enjoyed the overall experience and it does feel like a local spot.
