Drydock Cafe

Drydock Cafe serves seafood inside an unassuming building on Drydock Avenue, away from the Seaport’s hotel restaurants and waterfront dining rooms. The draw is the food: fish and chips, fried whole-belly clams and a fisherman’s platter with several kinds of seafood. It’s a casual place to sit down with a substantial lunch, especially if fried haddock sounds better than another sandwich.

The menu also includes chowder and broiled fish for anyone who would rather skip the fryer. Breakfast takes a different direction, with eggs, omelets, pancakes and French toast. Look for the cafe at 7 Drydock Avenue, and decide whether you’re in the mood for an egg breakfast or a seafood lunch before making the trip.
