What Rick Garmon likes about Gilberts Chowder House:
Small restaurant by the port. Seafood chowder was the best I've ever had. Lobster roll was also the best I've ever had. The main event was a nice lobster. Overall it was a great experience. View all feedback.

Their clam chowder was 10/10. We had the normal and seafood, both were delicious. Their Blueberry pie was delicious too. Loved this place.

Double Seafood chowder was great! Didn't realize you can order it by the gallon (this might have to happen on a future trip). Service was amazing as well.
