Barking crab is fun on a summer day I don’t care what anyone says. Food is good too if you stick with New England classics like lobsters and fried clams

A bartender pissed me off in 1998. They are dead to me.

Ha. And the feces discovery in the lobster tank sealed it for me. And i used to love it!

That's why I got pissed off at the bartender. Threw me out for leaving an Upper Decker in the lobster tank. What? Have you seen their bathrooms?

In the early 2000s I got a fried clam (paper) bucket thing. They laid a piece of paper over the top of the bucket, pushed it down only a little bit, and only filled that little bit at the top. So it was way less food than it looked like.

I'm still getting heated thinking about it. Doesn't look like they even sell clams in that container anymore, but their $40 fisherman's platter is criminally small looking.

Honestly seaport in general, pay for the overpriced beers at Cisco or trillium, take that stereotypical tourist photo on the harborwalk. Buy some mediocre quality seafood at barking crab.
