Howard's Chowder Shack - North Scituate

We opted for fried clams and a fish sandwich. The clam strips were generously portioned, tender, and flavorful without being overly greasy. The fries were also delicious. As for the fish sandwich, it featured a thick fillet of cod that was enormous, flaky, and perfectly battered. It was substantial enough to easily be shared between two buns. We're looking forward to returning to try more items from the menu!

The sodas were practically warm, and the service was terrible; the woman at the counter was not very friendly to customers. The dough boy was, without a doubt, the worst I've ever had, and it tasted like fish. Additionally, they had a sign advertising lobster rolls, but they were sold out. They should remove the sign, as that was the main reason I stopped in. To make matters worse, they were also out of chicken and napkins!

I used to live nearby and always enjoyed their clamcakes. I stopped in recently to grab some of my favorites, but they were nothing like I remembered. The clamcakes I loved were large, packed with clams, flavorful, and not greasy at all. What I got this time were balls of batter that were so saturated in oil that I couldn't even pick them up without getting my hands covered in grease, let alone eat them. The bisque was decent and creamy, but it didn't have any lobster meat in it. Please bring back the old recipe, even if it means charging a little more.

Great little spot ! Find it going west on Old Hartford Pike in North Scituate, RI. The clam cakes were hot and spongey. The white chowder was great too! The owners were welcoming and friendly. Look forward to trying the fish and chips and red chowder.

Really not a great environment. Food can be good though.
