"Again, this is first and foremost a clam shop, but the fish sandwich — simple, with a fried scrod filet on a burger bun and slathered with tartar sauce — is worth the drive, too. J.T. Farnham’s is currently open for takeout; it operates from March through the end of December and then takes a winter break each year." - Terrence Doyle
