Woodman’s in Essex, Massachusetts: More Than a Clam Shack

Woodman's of Essex, located in scenic Essex, Massachusetts, has been a must-visit culinary destination since 1914, and not just because people can’t get enough of our award-winning clam chowder, fresh seafood, and fried clams. Though we may have humble beginnings, what we have become is so much more than a clam shack. The whole Woodman’s family takes immense pride in being consistently named one of the best seafood restaurants in Massachusetts. When you visit us for a meal or for a special event, we work hard to make sure you leave us happy.
