In 1916, Chubby and Bessie decided to fry up some clams and sell them at a roadside stand. They decided to do this at the suggestion of a friend after Chubby and Bessie had commented on how slow business was. At the time, fried clams were unheard of. They played with the batter, tried it out on some friends and it was a hit. The rest, as they say, is history!
Woodman's of Essex is now known the "Best Waterfront Seafood Shack" (2016- USA Today) over 100 years and 5 generations later.
The menu
It still definitely has that down-to-earth "shack" vibe.
The Clam Cake, Crab Roll and chips. Bon appetit!
Verdict: No. This is a fun place to stop and have lunch, but it's definitely not something you need to do before you die.
Cost: It obviously depends on how much you order. Plan on spending ~$10-$20/person.
