First and last time I will eat a Captain Jack’s. We went there for clam cakes, which weren’t bad, but should have stopped with them. I ordered the fisherman‘a platter and New England clam chowder. The chowder was watery and tasteless. The breading on the seafood was bland and greasy. The French fries were pretty tasteless too. The chef should go across the street to the snack shack at the beach, their fries were delicious. The best part of the meal was the wait staff and Sons of Liberty larger. The worst part was the cost of a terrible meal. Never again. Tom

Big X on this place, never again. Did take out, lady was SO mean she’s like some older lady, so rude, and she shoved the bag I. Our face when our order was all set, she put everything in one tiny paper bag sideways, so the sauces fell all over the place, and it was 25 bucks for a tiny amount of whole belly clams with no fries or coleslaw ridiculous I’m never spending money here again

Had a great dinner tonight. Started off with a delicious cocktail and had an incredible stuffy and shrimp and a clam roll and of course dessert. Our waiter Jack was excellent. We will definitely be back.

Clam Cakes? More Like Clam Mistakes
I came here for a classic New England treat. I left questioning my life choices, my taste buds, and whether clams even exist in nature.
Let’s start with the chowder. It was supposed to be “creamy,” but it had the consistency of wallpaper paste and tasted like regret. I think I spotted a clam, but it might’ve just been a potato going through something.
And the clam cakes? Oh boy. Imagine a hush puppy that lost a bet. Greasy on the outside, weirdly empty in the middle, and somehow managed to taste like fish and absolutely nothing at the same time. We tried adding hot sauce to bring them to life—still dead.
I asked the server, “Are these fresh?” and they said, “They’re recent.” What does that mean?? Are they time travelers?? Am I?
Final verdict: If you’ve ever wondered what sadness tastes like deep-fried and served in a basket—this place has you covered.
If anyone needs me, I'll be on the toilet its about a 35 minute ride, Goodnight.

We go to Captain Jack’s every vacation and the food is great! The dessert’s are amazing! This year we had Jack(no relation) as our waiter and he was super, very friendly!

One of the worst tasteless seafood platters I've ever had. The 4 greasy scallops smelled like ammonia and batter fell off them. The small amount fried clams with bellies tasted old and were tough, no french fries, 3 shrimp, 2 pieces of fish all for $55.

Great place for food and conversation with a love one
Fish and chips were very fishy, very under battered over oily. French fries are bland. Clam cakes were greasy and flavorless, clear chowder had no flavor. It was all potatoes and no clam. I got the peanut butter mousse chocolate cupcake. Was craving chocolate and it tasted like nothing. Very very bland. On top of it all they were over priced Save your money and go to iggys.

The fish and chips were excellent! Get the special if they have it with clam chowder and clam cakes. The New England chowder is not as thick as I'm used to, it was more like a broth but tasty. The swordfish was on the smaller side but also very good.
