About Chowder's

Chowder's offers a diverse menu with delectable options, making it a standout dining choice at Fisherman’s Wharf. The classic "chowder" is often described as creamy, flavorful, and loaded with clams, presenting a seafood heaven experience in a Boudin bread bowl. This dish is considered ultimate comfort food, especially on unexpectedly cold San Francisco summer days. Customers also enjoy the "red clam" version, known for its tomato-heavy flavor profile. The crab cocktail is recommended to be enjoyed plain, rather than with the provided garlicky, spicy sauce. Additionally, the "crab tuna melt sandwich" is praised as absolutely delicious, boasting the perfect balance of ingredients. Fried fish and chips, along with fried zucchini, continue to receive high praise from diners. The atmosphere at Chowder's is cozy and laid-back, with excellent views of sea lions from the covered deck. While some customers note that there are better options in the area, they still find Chowder's a good value for the price. Parking is available across the street, and the restaurant is wheelchair accessible, although it may be challenging when busy. Families are welcomed with kid-friendly service.
