About Bostwick's Chowder House

Bostwick's Chowder House is a down-to-earth, New England-style seafood restaurant in Hampton, known for its fresh and simply prepared dishes. The chowder and bisque continue to receive praise as amazing, with the lobster bisque featuring significant lumps of crab. Customers often enjoy the lobster roll, which many consider excellent, as well as the clam chowder and soft crab po' boy, which is part of a lunch special with a very nice portion. The food is hot, flavorful, and reasonably priced, with generous portions that satisfy diners. The restaurant offers a casual setting, suitable for families in the summer, and is highly recommended by customers who appreciate the terrific, freshly prepared seafood. Despite being busy, the staff works hard to prepare tables quickly, and service is friendly and efficient once seated. Reviewers note that waits can run 45 minutes to an hour during the summer, so visiting in spring or autumn is a good idea. A 2-pound lobster is available for only $59, and the New England chowder is also praised as great. Ample parking is available, and the fish market is a useful option during busy season. Indoor dining is small, but outdoor seating is available, and the restroom line can be long since there is only one shared bathroom. The outdoor patio is dog-friendly, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy good food and friendly service. Reviewers have enjoyed the crispy fries and flavorful tuna poke bowl, noting that the crab cakes and New England clam chowder were very good as well. Drinks, especially the crusher, are also well liked. While the fried flounder received some critique for being a little dry, the overall experience at Bostwick's Chowder House remains positive, with many looking forward to returning.

The lobster was amazing! Yes. Go!
This the place to get fresh and properly cooked seafod. The oysters were top notch. Lobsters are always fresh and boiled to perfection. This is a must for any seafood lover.
Hello well this place is a cool place for lunch or dinner. The prices are ok but the locals love to eat and enjoy the east end like we call it home. The summer crowds are nice but I enjoy the after season local people who just relax and eat without a care who is trying to impress anybody. Fun places still have a way of making me laugh about life as a TV personality who cared about being a person who can rate any place right coast to coast.
