This is a very nice family place to go to on a Sunday in the late spring or summer. THey have absolutely the best apple cider donuts....in the fall, there is a long line of people just waiting to get the donuts. They have great apple cider, apple pies, etc. A particular favorite in the fall season. Other times of the year, you can also get seasonal fruits and veggies. They also have a small gift section with soaps, toys, candies. They also sell their own wines made from fruits. They offer wines samples for you to try. They have a little animal petting area too.

I had seen this restaurant featured on a PBS show about odd shaped buildings. I never thought about it, what with living in the Midwest. Last autumn, as we took a day trip drive out of Boston, as our son visited MIT, we came around a curve in the road and there sat the Clam Box. "That is where we are having lunch!" I cried. I decided to try the local clams...oh my..what sweet goodness! I am so glad I didn't go for the FL clams many of us think of as clams...because the local clams were SO yummy. What a nice serendipitous surprise! The Clam Box!

I can't believe I grew up 20 minutes from Ipswich and never knew this place existed. Thank goodness friends took us there one weekend. They warned us that it wasn't fancy, but they neglected to say the ambiance is down to earth, cozy, and friendly. I could have stayed all night! The pizza was fabulous, the prices were unbelievably affordable, the service was great, and I will definitely be going back -- often!
Pros: Great pizza at an unbelievable price
Cons: It does get crowded; be prepared to wait for a table on a weekend night

Great atmosphere, great food, great service. Local favorite for years but newcomers feel right at home the instant they walk in. Great location too, nice shops all along the picturesque riverside area with two public parking lots, free of charge.
Pros: atmosphere, location, food

The Hart house has an excellent reputation in the Northshore area. The dinner menu is fairly standard with steak and potato, fresh seafood and tasty deserts, all of which are very good.
The atmosphere is classic and appropriate for romantic dates or group dining. I have been here for parties in one of several private rooms and for more intimate private dinners with just a few people, each time we all enjoyed great food brought to us with great service.
If in the Northshore area the hart house is a must.

We arrived ten minutes before the 11 AM opening, which turned out to be a good move. We were the second party in the queue, which grew to about 20 people by the opening. We're sixty years old, have been all around the world, but have never had better clams or scallops. BUT BRING CASH! They only accept that or a personal check (whatever that is).
Pros: Friendly atmosphere, lots of parking, great food
Cons: Don't take credit cards

This place is really nice. It is about an hour drive from Cambridge.
The beach is made of white sand and is incredibly clean. The beach is about a 4 1/2 mile stretch.
Most of the time the place is very quiet. This is because the Bathhouses, lifeguards, and staff come out only during the Memorial Day-Labor Day Season.
Overall, it is a worthwhile visit.

I thought the food was great. I have eaten there several times, but will not go back. The service is the worst I have ever encountered in such a high class establishment. If you want great food but want to be treated like garbage go there. I made no demands at all, left a good tip each time, thinking it was a bad night for each of the servers. I realized after a few visits that is their mode of operation. It is a shame they are so poorly managed.
Pros: food, ambience
Cons: service and parking
