Gift Tips
- Try the lobster roll for a classic Boston seafood lunch with generous portions and a toasted bun.
- Order the clam chowder if you want a rich, comforting bowl that pairs well with a quick market stop.
- Look at the raw seafood case for fresh fish, oysters, and shellfish if you plan to cook at home.
- Ask the counter staff for help choosing salmon cuts or other seafood if you want a good recommendation.
- If you like lighter seafood options, look for the sushi, sashimi, or raw bar selections on the menu.
- Ask about the fresh fish counter if you want seafood to cook at home, since the selection changes with the day’s catch.
