This friendly place serves oysters and littleneck clams harvested at low tide in the waters right across the street – can't get fresher than that. Sit out on the deck and enjoy the view. It's been going strong since 1964 and the menu covers a broad spectrum, from fish sandwiches to chicken Parmesan, seafood linguini and prime rib.
The secondhand bookstore at the back lends the other half of the name.
