Customer Reviews
Food was delicious, portions were amazing, prices on Google are out of date. The lobster roll was fantastic, a good hearty portion. Fried fish was light and fresh, onion rings and fries were nothing to write home about but the tartar sauce makes everything better. We ordered a selection of items from the menu including the broiler side, all of it was fairly good. Warning to all patrons, restaurant is CASH ONLY but they do have an ATM. Lastly, there is a shortage of belly clams all dishes involving them are $3 more currently.
One of the best experiences I’ve had trying a lobster roll. My mother and I split the roll which was an amazing idea because I was at first nervous on whether it would be enough to share between two, but obviously it is. The lobster salad is stuffed to the highest point which makes the price more reasonable and appealing. The only downfall is that this is a cash only business; however there is an ATM on the premise it would’ve just been helpful to know beforehand. Though the cash only option did not take away from the overall experience. I’m excited to go back!
Great atmosphere and location. Service was fast. I had a lobster grilled cheese, fries, and cheese burger with all the fixins. Fries pretty salty. Lobster grilled cheese weirdly shaped. Cheese wasn't melted all the way. 3/5 not the best item on the menu. The burger though. Whomever was on the grill was making magic. Seafood shanty really should be burger shanty because the burger was amazing. Perfectly grilled, prepared, good size for price.
Excellent food and what a great way to start your cape cod vacation. Service is pretty quick. You just order and grab a table and they’ll call your number. A lot of seating area. A good amount of parking also. We got the clam chowder and it was delicious. It’s not the creamy typical clam chowder people are used to eating. It is more soup than a chowder. It was very good. The lobster roll is huge. I suggest asking for an extra roll and splitting the lobster onto two rolls. The scallops were ok but lacking a little bit of seasoning is the only thing. They are cash only business, and they have an ATM on site.
Such a great place for really great fast food! Clam strips and fish and chips were absolutely amazing as was the clam chowder! Great view of the bridge and after you eat you can park in the visitor area across the street and walk the canal! Will definitely be back! CASH only! ATM on site!
