Is there something unique about them, that would make it worth a side trip from Boston?

I dont know if its there location or what but get a box of clams w/ bellies of course and some fries mmmm.

Now I have to go get some this weekend!

They're wicked good!!! And don't go to Woodman's,that place is for tourists( not good). The Clambox is good but wicked crowded and they overload on the fries. If you really want good fried clams go past Woodman's and stop at Farnum's(its on the left overlookin' the marsh) These are some awesome clams and chowda!!!!

bellies and all...........yummy

 

[edcrbnsoul]

Yup to Farnums also
Feel the same about woodmans

Have to ditto the above posts on those clams...they are the best.... Excellent choices on places to get them too...a fried clam is no good unless it is belly and all!!

I have also heard "not" to go to Woodman's.

Why not go to that great clam place in Kittery? That way you can outlet shop, eat fried clams, and then outlet shop some more

Can I get clams and lobster?

come up a little closer and get them at Saco or Old Orchard......Village Inn is a great seafood place.........now we are cooking.....I need some fried clams..........and the funny thing is all these restaurants down south sell them as clam strips.....I mean ......lets eat the main part of the clam or nothing at all
