Atmosphere

Pros:

  • "Love the decor, the cleanliness and most of the all the friendly staff and extraordinary food!"
  • "I would come here again just for the beautiful outside seating and that amazing lobster roll with a generous amount of lobster. Definitely worth it for the amazing atmosphere and great staff!"
  • "Way better layout and decor than is was before, now it's a bar and a restaurant."
  • "Great atmosphere for both meeting a friend at the bar or having a cozy date in a booth."
  • "The inside is more open, decorated with wood and steel and a large photomural of wine (or whiskey) casks on the side wall."
  • "Nice atmosphere with a lot of open space and high ceilings with a classic styled bar."
  • "Great settings and in the summer, you'll think it is better than it is."

Cons:

  • "Confused by what atmosphere this place is going for."
  • "The lobster chowder was bland, the $27 lobster roll was about 3 bites of overcooked legs and claws."
  • "The second time I ate there I ordered a salad and there was actually molded lettuce in it."
  • "Ok Somebody please put in an air brake or something to stop the wind from gusting through the whole place every winter."
  • "But the atmosphere was just not my style. I was under the impression it was a restaurant and we had to scream at each other to have conversation bc the music was so loud."
  • "In our short time there, we noticed a mix of grunge rock coming from the overhead speakers. Not inviting at all."
  • "The place was not crowded yet the restrooms both men’s and women’s had issues!"
