A couple of unique standouts include Scottish Dave’s Pub in Clinton and Sheppards Tavern in Guilford. Bar timeīars abound in the area (and can be found in most restaurants, too).

The restaurant also has a full bar that turns out fun yet serious cocktails not often found in the area. The Bufalina pie with buffalo mozzarella is a must, and definitely try the specials with seasonal ingredients. A strong order includes escarole bean soup and spaghetti e vongole.īufalina in Guilford is a gem, serving wood-fired pizzas in a tiny space that has additional patio seating. Cafe Allegre is family-friendly but also perfect for couples and singles there’s a lively bar scene. Bouchée has a date-night ambience and wonderful dishes like trout almondine, steak frites with bearnaise, and a house salad with blueberries and Roquefort. Bring your own sides and drinks.Ĭlassier options include French bistro Bar Bouchée and Italian restaurant Cafe Allegre, both in Madison. Littlenecks are grilled and doused in a buttery cocktail sauce concoction. Lobsters, fish, and chicken are available, but a must-order is the roast clam special. Running through the middle of this tented, outdoor, and seasonal restaurant is a huge outdoor grill pit. Located in Guilford, this downright unique eatery commands diners to “put your rump on a stump!” This is actually a literal request - the seats are wood stumps. For a classic New England clam and lobster bake, check out the much beloved and long-running establishment the Place. DinnerĪ post shared by The Place Restaurant abound for the best meal of the day. Grabbing a sub for the beach is never a bad idea: Try the Sinatra with Genoa salami, hot capicola, soppressata, fresh mozzarella, and roasted red peppers. Italian culture is also deep in this area, and Saldamarco’s in Clinton is a great place to shop for meats, pastas, stuffed breads, and more. Order a platter with fries and tartar sauce and a cup of chowder (New England style - chunky, creamy - please!) If you’re craving fried whole bellies, this roadside joint has been at it for more than 50 years. The Clam Castle in Madison is another local favorite. Both are located in eye-catching settings alongside buoy-clad marinas with water views. Connecticut-style lobster rolls are served warm with the sweet meat slathered in butter, and that’s just what you’ll find at Clinton’s Lobster Landing and the Guilford Lobster Pound. LunchĪ post shared by Guilford Lobster Pound is a great time to visit one of the many lobster shacks and fried clam establishments in the area. The chewy texture, cornmeal dusting, and out-of-the-box flavors (roasted garlic, red pepper and feta) really set these bagels apart. Over in Guilford, a second location of Niantic’s Deke’s Bagels opened in 2022. (Breakfast sandwiches and pastries are also available.) Don’t miss the sour cream old-fashioned and the raspberry jelly stick. It’s perfect when it comes to vibes and, absolutely, flavor. Young families stop in for a dozen en route to the beach. Walking in, it’s clear that everything is scratch-made: The air is heady with the scents of sugar, cinnamon dust, and frosting, not to mention baking and frying. This mom-and-pop establishment has been open for decades, slinging old-fashioned (cake) doughnuts, yeast (raised) doughnuts, crullers, and of course, Boston cream doughnuts.
A post shared by Beach Donut Shop could get a dive or diner breakfast at lots of places in the area - Nick’s Place in Madison is one local favorite - but the hands-down best spot for morning eats is Beach Donut Shop, tucked discreetly into a small shopping center in Clinton.
