Choate Bridge Pub - Ipswich

This is the best pub food I've ever experienced. The pizza was incredible and the service was exceptional. If you're in the mood for some delicious food that you can get quickly, this is the place to visit!

I began with a fried clam appetizer that was substantial enough to be a full meal. Priced at $25, it felt like a steal compared to the $40 you’d find elsewhere, and it was absolutely delicious. I then had the blackened salmon Caesar, which was incredible—definitely a standout! The drinks were generous in size and reasonably priced at $9 for a Bombay Sapphire and tonic. It's clear why the locals choose to dine here. Keep up the great work, everyone!

As residents of South West Florida, we always look forward to our visits to New Hampshire and Massachusetts. One of the highlights of these trips is dining at Coates. The fried clams are incredibly fresh and perfectly cooked, while the fried scallops are tender and flavorful. We visited on a Thursday around 1 PM, and the service was welcoming, with our food arriving in a timely manner. We will definitely make a point to return to Coates every time we come north.

Seems like a neighborhood hangout. Had a hard time picking out what to have for dinner. Went with the clam plate dinner. Nothing to write home about and just okay. Bartenders seem friendly along with waitstaff.

This restaurant does not take credit cards- there is an ATM machine inside. Three of us had lobster rolls and they were full of delicious lobster. The bun was toasted perfectly. The French fries were great too. There is a rather limited menu but everything we had was great. I took the picture after eating several forkfuls of lobster.
