About this place Summer Shack

This Boston seafood spot at 50 Dalton Street is a casual, queer-friendly place, especially if you want a lobster roll and a game on TV.

It’s a neighborhood joint, not a big production. The food is fresh, especially the seafood, and their raw bar is supposedly the largest around. You'll find lobster rolls, sure, but also the kind of straightforward preparations you want when the fish is the star.

The vibe is relaxed. Think sports bar meets seafood shack, but without the sticky floors. If you're looking to catch a Boston game while you eat, this is a good bet.

No fuss, no pretense. It’s just solid seafood, done right, in a welcoming space where everyone can kick back.
