Reviews
Located in Westminster, MA this places feels pretty out of the way compared to many other destination restaurants. Alternatively, I guess it’s pretty cool that a damn good seafood shack is available if you live way out here.
This place is totally loaded with parking spots. Although when I arrived, it was pretty busy and I still had to do a single circle around to find a spot.
Outside, there is the typical long line waiting to order ice cream. I did not get any this trip, so I don’t have any comment. You must go inside if you want to order the fried foods.
Inside is pretty minimal. There are small tables along the side of the walls if you and one other person want to eat inside. The central area is clear, and of course you order at the counter. The cashier was nice made sure to double-check if everything was ordered right. The wait times though, were not so great. It took 35min from the time of ordering to finally receive my food. I guess there were about 5 orders before me, but that’s still quite the long wait.
I ordered:
Double-Stuffed Lobster Roll $31.99. Oh man, at first look, this bad boy is loaded! It’s a Maine-style lobster roll, so it’s served cold and mayonnaisey on a lightly toasted New England-style hotdog bun. I’m not quite sure if I agree with filling the bottom of the bun with shredded lettuce. I think it dilutes the flavor of the lobster (lettuce is mostly water!), and it also feels like a shady tactic to make it look fuller than it is – like a food commercial.
Scallop and Whole Belly Clam Combo $27.99. At first glance, the serving size is a little disappointing when directly compared to Kimball Farm’s “Pick Two Seafood Combo” but I have to remind myself that their equivalent combo would’ve been $41.45 / $49.95 (depending on the size). With that in mind, this is a fair portion, and actually it’s a lot better if you don’t want to feel totally stuffed and lethargic. The fries, coleslaw, and tartar sauce are all exactly what you’ve had before. No comments. The whole belly clams were yummy, but there weren’t many huge pieces I’m accustomed to. The scallops were perfection! The batter was perfectly lightly seasoned, and the scallops were still moist with every bite, even after waiting to eat it at home.
Big fan of this place, and I’ll totally come back here to try out the ice cream. This might be my new favorite scallop place if the quality remains consistent.
Do save room for an ice cream, the servings are generous and the ice cream is good.
Ice cream was awesome though. I got the smores boat and it was fantastic.
Most of it is fried seafood. They do have seasonal alligator, regular and spicy. Havent tried it but one other brave soul may try it and leave their own review.
Portion sizes are good. kid friendly. Wheelchair accessible. Good amount of free parking.
The Captain’s platter was loaded with beautifully battered and perfectly fried to a golden brown pieces of various seafood. Lobster, whole belly clams, scallops and shrimp loaded the container. A healthy container of fries accompanied the seafood as well as a nice creamy, well seasoned coleslaw topped the plate. All perfectly fried and well seasoned without being overly salty, which is often the case at other establishments.
The clam plate was equally beautiful in batter and fry. Instead of fries, the seafood was accompanied by a delicious cucumber salad which was sweet enough, yet still loaded with that pickle-ish flavor expected. Also, accompanied by some of that delicious coleslaw.
The Cotton candy ice cream (hard) was wonderfully creamy and blasted with it’s namesake flavor. A must try. They also have MULTIPLE flavors of soft serve and many hard Ice cream flavors they change up.
Very much worth the ride out of you’re not located nearby!
