Lobster Roll lacked chucks of lobster...it had bits and pieces and lettuce in between the lobster and the roll...It was a 5 out of 10...New England chowder was good...

White chowder was great, clam cakes were a bit too oily for my liking, and the special Maine wild blueberry ice cream was sub-par.

New England Hikes and Bites

Honestly, the worst Fish and Chips and Lobster Roll i've ever had in my life. If I could give zero stars I would. The fish was so thin it was like they put it a tortilla press to flatten the fish out of it. The seasoning and coating on the fish was a golden color but I couldn't tell you what was on it because there was absolutely no flavor on the fish at all and the coating fell off in one piece when I took a bite. The fish also had a fishy smell so I was wondering if it was on its way out. The lobster roll was only claw meat that was chopped up by what I can only guess was an angry worker with a meat cleaver. The seasoning on it was similar to Papa Gino's pizzeria (IFYKYK). Also included for some reason, was spring mix lettuce pieces that were wilted and changed from a green to a brown color when I picked them off the roll. The ample outdoor seating area and it being so close in proximity to Ninigret Park were what made us choose this place. If I can offer any advice, revamp how you season food, the quality of it and how you present food since most of it is to go/carry out. Represent RI better and all its delicious food it has to offer.

0 stars if I could. Terrible customer service. Was in line before close and by the time we get to the window they tell us the kitchen is closed for a very simple order and would only serve ice cream (still before closing time). As someone in the industry, was super disappointed. Service was cold. My party was really looking forward to a quick order. If I were the owners, I’d be frustrated by a kitchen and front of house that closed before the hours set online. Won’t ever try again and will tell friends to avoid. Best of luck to a company who doesn’t stay true to their hours, especially in the summer and in high demand.

Very disappointing, the clam cakes were very salty and had no clam favor at all. The lobster roll was small and tasted average, it costs $27.99 that's not worth. The Fish N Chips and the scallops are not bad. The overall is the food is expensive and taste so so. Not recommended.

Very disappointed after all god reviews. Fish was a flat piece of burnt coating. So dry the dog said no thanks. The hot lobster roll was so greasy and seasoned -absolutely inedible- the extra gift of lobster shells was free! $27.99 wasted for sure. On the plus side the clam cakes were fantastic,glad i got a dozen because we threw the rest away. Onion rings were ok too. Sorry. Won’t be going back .

Fresh whole belly clams were the worst I ever had, if they were whole belly clams I couldn’t find the belly because they we so tiny ( raised in New England so I know my seafood) and being so tiny they were over cooked so it made them chewy. Same with the scallops were chewy being over cooked. So buyer beware if you love whole belly clams this is not the place to get them.

Excellent tuna tacos - cooked perfectly medium rare and great portion of tuna. Delicious whole belly clams, we requested that they be cooked lightly and they came out perfectly and good portion. Onion rings were also very good. Arrived at 5 pm, no line. Highly Recommended
