We waited until after the weekend, but even a Monday was busy. The place was understaffed and seating was a difficulty; but once at the table service was fine. We tried several spots on this trip and Chowder Bowl had the best chowder. The consistency was perfect; not over thickened with flour. Great with the garlic toast. We also tried... more

We went to the Chowder Bowl June 30, 2008 for lunch. When we arrived around 11:45am there were two other tables...by the time we left the place was packed. The service was very friendly and attentive. The clam chowder was excellent (I thought it was better than Mo's)! The food was great and the salad bar was fresh. more

I don't understand the negativeness about this place. For starters, the help is always real friendly and nice. Also the food is real good each time I eat here. Each time I enter the server remembers me by site, which to me is a real plus. I always order fish 'n chips. I like the fries; they're shaped almost like... more

We have been to the Chowder Bowl three times now at different times during the year on vacation( hoping when we were there it was just an "off night") but I wasn't impressed very much, and the service wasn't friendly either. We have 4 kids (toddler twins) and they acted like it was such a big deal to give me... more

Why did they put a pat of butter in the chowder? And why didn't they have ANY fresh fish on the menu? They had a lot of fried dishes, but nothing that really celebrated the seafood they were selling. The clam chowder might be the only thing I'd recommend, but ask for it without butter. Also, the atmostphere is severly... more

Upon recommendations from more than one person, my husband and I and our friend went to the Chowder Bowl for lunch. I ordered fish and chips, my husband ordered the Chowder Bowl and our friend ordered grilled oysters and tea. The fish and chips were good, but didn't seem particularly extraordinary. Our friend ordered tea and never got it. They... more

With reviewers claiming that the Chowder Bowl serves the "best clam chowder in town," my boyfriend and I had to make a visit. We spent the entire day buying souvenirs and completely forgot to have lunch so by the time 6 rolled around, we were starving. Immediately as we stepped into the building, we were greeted by one of the... more
