Johnny's Clam Shack (Open April 7th to October15th)

Best lobster roll I've had in CT (so far, I'm still exploring) but this one was absolutely stellar. Also tried the clam strips which were excellent. The only let down was their slaw. It is incredible underprepared both from a seasoning and fermentation point of view. It's hard and tasteless without much flavor, and when eating a bunch of fried fatty foods having a good acidic slaw really does wonders. So here's to hoping they can fix that, but tbh I'd go back every time just for the rolls and clams.

We had Fish and chips, fried clam strips and hush puppies. Order ahead online, if it's working my order wasn't able to be accepted this time. Fast and friendly service. New menu board, see photo attached.

One of the only places on CT seacoast where you can get clam fritters and it's in Norwich. They were large and had a good amount of clam bits in them. Johnny even brought them to our car when parked at his drive-in. Very pleasant and served fresh.
