    Good higher end beach bar food with outdoor deck seating featuring amazing views. Locals is a solid lunch option for families and groups as well as boaters coming in from the dock. We got the haddock sandwich and the Struzz 5K grilled chicken and both were excellent. The haddock was flaky and perfectly fried while the Struzz was loaded with bacon and cheese. You also get a big heap of fries to make sure you don't leave hungry. Our little one got the chicken tenders which were underwhelming and lacking in flavor so maybe try a different option on the kids menu. The frozen alcoholic drinks are there for those wanting to have a really good time. While the ambience was laid back for lunch and featured several families, I have the feeling the vibe shifts in the evening as the servers were decked out in party neon. That said the service was great and our food arrived quickly. Since the restaurant is connected to a harbor, it was very busy with people and boats coming in and out. There is a dedicated free parking lot across the street with an attendant so you don't have to worry about busy summer beach parki

    Food was good, beautiful view from the back deck, and my drink was good! Liana wasn't our server but she helped me so many times while I was there! Her energy and smile was very memorable. She was so friendly and helpful, I had to get her name so I could add her to my review! Thanks again girl!

    They were super busy so service was a little slow but she was nice. But the sunset made the scenery and the food were worth the wait.

    Lobster Roll

    Views and ambiance were great. Drinks were also notable. Service was awesome - waitress was very attentive and friendly. Food itself was overpriced for the quality - the lobster roll was good, but for it to come without lettuce and to be $50 was a stretch in making it worth it.

    Debated between 3 and 4 stars for this place. Here's why: - location - gorgeous water view. can get noisy at marina though. there was a loud fuel truck right below us the entire time. - loved the harvest salad - chicken could have used more seasoning though. The fries were too greasy. - they accommodated an 8 people party fairly quickly with two separate tables, however. Couldn't put them together. - the waitress was friendly - small parking lot but was able to find a spot on a Saturday mid afternoon - the umbrellas don't really provide much shade. Recommend sitting inside on a really hot day. Overall, definitely worth a visit if you're in the area.

    What a lovely spot! Beautiful restaurant overlooking the water. I just so happened to come here right when the sun was setting and the views were stunning! My friend and I sat at the bar and ordered the mussels to start. Confession: I've never had mussels before!! And I loved them! They reminded me of clams and were in a delicious light tomato broth. I can't believe I've never had them before and I would definitely order them again! For my entree, I got the fish & chips. It was a large, nicely fried filet served with a delicious coleslaw - and I ate the whole thing! My dirty martini was also on point. I already can't wait to come back here!

    Location is nice right across from the water. Atmosphere inside is lively but not to too loud,…read morepretty modern with bar, high tops as well as tables, good TVs. We went on a very busy day and were able to get an online reservation so we were seated quickly. Service was a bit hit or miss, pleasant but couldn't quite hand the amount of people, as drinks and water refill was lacking. Menu has some good options, as our food was tasty however as with many now, very overpriced and not worth it for a family. Appetizers (arachini) was very small and Mac and cheese very non special. Fish and Steak dishes were good.

    Decent Experience, but Be Aware of the 25% Automatic Gratuity for Large Groups…read more Our group of women has been dining out together monthly on the South Shore for almost three years. This month, we visited Boathouse Bistro Beachfront in Hull with a party of 8. I made a reservation for 6:00 pm, but we were seated in the bar area rather than the dining room, which was a bit disappointing. The food and service were perfectly fine, though not exceptional. When the check arrived, we found a mandatory 25% gratuity had been added. Our server did not mention it when she brought the check, and a simple heads-up that the tip was already included would have been appreciated. To be fair, the policy is printed on the menu, where it applies to "large parties" of 6 or more. Personally, I don't consider a party of 6 to be a large group, so this threshold may catch some diners off guard. We always pay in cash and are happy to leave a standard 20% tip for good service. A 25% automatic charge felt steep for an average experience, and it's higher than anything we've encountered at other South Shore restaurants. I'm sharing this so other groups know what to expect and aren't surprised when the bill arrives. If you're planning to dine here with 6 or more, check the menu for the policy ahead of time.
