Billy’s Chowder House is a great place! Eating mozzarella sticks while looking at the ocean is a good way to spend your Saturday. Stephanie was a wonderful waitress!

I sat at the bar this time here at Billy’s Chowdah House. What an immaculate set up! Let me tell you folks the service was great. Two lovely ladies, Margaret and Nicole. What smiles! They were attentive and fast acting. The food was delicious as were my drinks! Very much recommend this place to those close to home and far away!
