Boston Chowda Co

Boston Chowda Co. serves chowder, soups and seafood at Quincy Market, where a bread bowl can turn a quick stop into lunch. New England clam chowder is the obvious starting point, but the menu also includes lobster rolls, haddock pie and lobster macaroni and cheese. Soups, stews and chili give you choices beyond the seafood dishes.

The counter is inside the market’s food colonnade, so expect to order your meal and use shared seating rather than settle into a separate restaurant. It’s handy when people in your group want different lunches, since other vendors are close by. A cup of chowder leaves room to keep eating around the market; a bread bowl asks for more of your appetite.
