Parked next to the Amherst Garden Center along busy NH Route 101, The Sea Basket food trailer offers fried seafood rolls & baskets, lobster rolls, chicken tender, burgers, hot dogs, fries, and cold drinks. The pricing here is on the slightly higher side, similar pricing to nearby sitdown restaurants. There is picnic table seating near the food trailer.
After seeing mixed reviews of The Sea Basket, I decided to check it out. After driving through crazy Bedford traffic, I made it here for dinner. I ordered the Fried Haddock Basket ($20.99 plus tax) with fries. I waited a bit since the food is made to order with seafood being hand breaded before deep frying.
My food was ready in about 10 minutes after ordering. Packed in a takeout box, there 3 thick pieces of fried haddock over a pile of golden fries, tartar sauce and ketchup packets on the side. I put some Heinz Malt Vinegar on my haddock before eating. The haddock pieces were soft inside with a good breading on the outside. The natural cut fries were very hot.
Overall, the fried food I had were pretty good and not too greasy. I also noticed the trailer indicated they offer haddock chowder, but this was not on the menu. I will be back here for a lobster roll next time! read more
