Seafood restaurant · Downtown

"We wouldn’t go so far as to call the Sail Loft a tourist trap, but it’s very tourist-friendly and on a lot of lists. It’s absolutely worth braving the summertime crowds for dive bar vibes and that famous dill-spiked New England clam chowder. Sit at the bar — or on the deck — and look at boats and nice water views. Relax and remember this is why you suffer through winter in New England." - Tanya Edwards
