Amazing!!! Don’t judge the book by its cover. They had the best lobster roll with butter i ever had. Amazing blueberry pie. Its a must if you are winter or bar harbor area.

It's ok. Not many other places around that sell clam chowder so we decided to try this place. Fried shrimp and fish were pretty good but the clam chowder bowl didn't really satisfy. The people were friendly. That's always a plus.

What a hidden gem!! We stopped here on a whim as we were passing through. We got the hot lobster roll, haddock sandwich, homemade pickle, and lemonade. Everything was absolutely delicious!

Fish and chips are very oily. It's not worth the money.

Our visit to seaside fish&chowder was a delightful treat. The fish was cooked to perfection with bomb tartar sauce to match. Also, we pleasantly surprised about the quality of the French fries tasted was like they were freshly peeled potatoes. The service was excellent; our waitress was very attentive. The decor matched the beach boardwalk theme, especially since we were on the Santa Cruz beach boardwalk with sand just a few feet away. You can easily make your meal a beachfront dining experience! 5-Star rating on experience, taste, and service. Thank you, seaside fish&chowder!

Raw batter and plastic straws :(. The fries were good and the parts of the fish that were fully cooked were good (in that deeply-greasy-so-delicious-once-a-year-it’s ok-heart-attack-food way), but parts were completely uncooked with pasty-raw batter and *cold* (must have been frozen) fish. I was actually kind of grateful that it prevented me from eating the whole basket, and I can forgive them - maybe there was a newbie in the kitchen with management was stretched thin… but what really ticked me off is that they are using plastic straws again. that is unforgivable, especially directly on the ocean. I think plastic straws were banned in our county in 2019 but maybe it was suspended for the pandemic, lucky for the plastic lobby. But they should do the right thing anyway. I will definitely be contacting them and the city.

2 battered fish on flower tortillas with pico de gallo, cabbage and lime infused garlic cilantro creme. Hit the spot! Usuualld do not do deep fried meat but it was delicious. Hard to find anything wrong with these 2 tacos. 9 of 10 nods. #spicemeister approved.
