Yessssss! Stowes is the spot. We had tried visiting before but arrived too close to closing, so we were thrilled to return. This time, we ordered the lobster bisque, clam chowder, and lobster grilled cheese—absolutely packed with flavor. The restaurant is right by the beach, making...Read More

Had a great lunch at this casual, no-frills seafood spot. Everything tasted fresh (and looked fresh in their market!) - we enjoyed the New England clam chowder, risotto cake, and fried clams “boat”. The boat was a huge portion and would recommend sharing with another...Read More

There is small area of parking in front of the establishment. The service provided was upon walk-in order. Nothing to report. You order your food inside and seat yourself outside. The food was well worth it and the price was great. The fried shrimp and...Read More

Loved it! Clam Chowder was creamy and delicious! Lobster rolls are amazing! My husband loved whole belly clams and the fries are fried to perfection! Light crispy outside soft inside! Great Place!

As someone who remembers Savin Rock as a young boy, Stowes was always a favorite. I have been traveling the state looking for ole school seafood and Stowe's delivered. They are still the best around. I highly recommend stopping by.

Hidden in a corner in West Haven. This place is fantastic! Parking can be a pain and it is a cash only establishment. I recommend The Treasure chest so that you can try a little bit of everything. The portions are huge and you won’t...Read More

This place is great! Stopped on our way from RI to PA. It was a blustery, chilly day and we got to sit on the porch by a fire and have some delicious clam chowder, clam strips, etc. Portions are really big. Everything was great....Read More

Excellent fried seafood. I've been here many times over the past few years and Stowe's never disappoints. Usually order a Treasure Chest and share it as a family. It has everything in it and is a good valve. The picture is after we already started...Read More

Love this place, ambience isn’t anything special but the food is delicious. Had the crap cake sandwich, best in New England in my opinion. My wife had the lobster roll which she loved and my son had the tuna tacos which he said was outstanding....Read More

If you're looking for really fresh and good fried seafood along the beach... Great portions at very fair prices and delicious. It's counter-style ordering indoors and all seating is outdoors. Parking is limited. They get busy during lunch. Well worth it....Read More

First it’s cash only! That’s important to know they have an ATM but it was out of service. With that being said I has a lobster roll and it was the most delicious thing I’ve ever tasted. All the food is basically prepared to go...Read More

The portions are very generous! It may take 15 or so to get your food. But guarantee, it will be hot and fresh because the food is cooked to order. It’s not fast food. There is outdoor seating in the shade on the patio/deck or...Read More
