Mayo with celery is the way to go. Fish & chips served with malt vinegar & ketchup. Perfect size portions for each. No leftovers for average eaters. Located in a fish market Order at the counter on your right and it's ready in about 10 minutes. Seafood counter is separate. A couple of outdoor tables with umbrellas but people also eat in their car since it's a quick bite. Very small parking lot and very limited on-street parking. *Tip: share a meal so you have room for Holy Cow ice cream 1-block away.

Found this via Yelp. It was one of the few locations open for business during lunch…read more It is a small shop with many options where you order at the counter and grab a seat outdoors. There is limited seating and it appears that most people pick up orders based on the traffic. We ordered the clam chowder, lobster roll and crab roll. All were delicious! Glad we stopped by here. Don't forget to dispose your trash in nearby bins.

Item(s) ordered: Fish tacos (haddock) and tostones (and a Coke Zero)…read moreThe review: Two stars for two things--cute presentation and crispy tostones. They barely had any of the seafood advertised, and even when deciding what to order, they referred me to a menu that they actually could not offer. On the brink of hangriness, I ordered the fish tacos with haddock because there were no other options, and there was barely any fish in the tacos. I wish they had been honest that they did not have what I was looking for. MOST memorable was when the waiter profiled me and decided to go on a fanatical rant for about fifteen minutes, as to why I should read the New Testament and accept Christ. The owner witnessed this interaction and my obvious immense discomfort, and didn't do a thing. Oh, and the tostones said they came with an aioli/sauce and they gave me ketchup. Honestly upset that I paid for any of this.

Looks like they are generally open 9am-6pm daily, sometime early May through year end. Order at the counter inside their little shop, pay, and head down the little alley (hold on tightly to your stuff so you don't accidentally drop anything enroute) to their back deck with limited seating, and access to their bathrooms. Listen up for your name and they will bring you your food on a tray. A family of three shared the 3 chicken lobsters for $50 during the 2025 season, and a dozen raw oysters for $30. My single lobster was $18. Single oysters $3 apiece. Creamy clam chowder $7. Stuffed clam $3. The $30 cold lobster roll came with cole slaw and a bag of chips. The hot dog roll looked small but was well filled with fresh sweet lobster meat. Her smoked salmon $8 were two thick chunks of fish. My hot in-shell boiled lobster arrived several minutes after, pre-cracked. Carefully poured out the green water, and I went at it. Making use of the sink by the bathroom afterwards to get cleaned up. A delicious way to start our outing to Rockport! BTW parking in the nearby area is paid and seasonal. Head to the kiosk, enter the license plate, pay an affordable price, and stick the slip on your dashboard. Parking tickets are no fun.

When a fish is frozen, the water within the flesh of the fish expands. When it expands, it pierces the flesh of the fish (think icicles) and creates a mushy flesh.

A solid 3-star review. They need to get their fryer…read moretemperatures under control. The lobster roll was generously portioned but ultimately fell just a bit short of greatness. I really appreciated the amount of fresh meat packed into the toasted brioche bun. However, the seasoning was a little too heavy on the mayonnaise, which masked the natural sweetness of the lobster. The side of French fries arrived piping hot and perfectly crispy. It is a decent option if you are craving seafood, though it needs minor tweaks. Overall, it was a perfectly average meal that left me satisfied but not entirely blown away. The Fried Clams which were a mixed of textures. Some of the clams were beautifully sweet and tender, while others were noticeably overcooked and chewy. The batter had a great crunch, but it lacked the necessary seasoning to make the dish pop. I also ordered a side of onion rings that were greasy, though they still had a decent flavor. The staff was incredibly friendly and the atmosphere was wonderful for a casual dinner. I might return eventually, but I am not in a rush. The shrimp looked fantastic when it arrived at our table with a beautiful golden-brown exterior. Unfortunately, the shrimp themselves were a bit rubbery and lacked that fresh, snappy bite you expect at a seafood joint. The French fries were standard, nothing spectacular, but they served their purpose as a side. It was a perfectly mediocre dining experience that did not justify the slightly high price tag. Despite the okay service, I will probably look for a different spot next time. If you want a cushy 11-to -7 this isn't it. This gig is seasonal, which means you have a small window to make your money and bust your tail.
