Not only do tourists and Maine locals love chef and CIA alum Richard Varano’s restaurant , Billy’s Chowder House, but they once spotted a moose sitting by the bar !
We go there every march & Jan and for appetizers we get any if the chowders / Stews ( I prefer seafood stew ) and there fried chicken wings you won't be disappointed.
Any Lobster dish is perfectly prepared and tasty. Terrific Service and Reasonably priced, be sure to look at the stars on a clear night, amazing
Perfect place for a great meal. Any Lobster dish is perfectly prepared. Great service, sinful desserts ????
Lobster stew was a bit smaller than expected and I know it's not necessarily a kids restaurant for $9 for boxed Mac n cheese not house made Mac n cheese is too pricey . Service was pretty slow.
Lobster Mac & Cheese is literally the best thing ever, get it! You won't be disappointed.
Great seafood stew , fried clams and lobster Mac-and-cheese! $1 oysters on Wed too!
The salad is awesome, I would go here just for that let alone all of the other great choices
Garden salad is so great with cheese and pickles it is a wonderful surprise.
Very friendly welcoming place with great scallops and good chowder .
Staff was very friendly and quick on a very busy Labor Day night.
Get there early or call ahead to get the wait time, always worth a trip there when in Wells

Say hi kelly
Clam strips and lobster stew is a great sharing combo, leaving room for ice cream! - Markets of New York City
Love eating at the bar. Great service, delicious pub food, good drink prices, awesome new management and sports on lots of TVs. What more could you ask for? Ten dollar buckets of bud. Expensive? - Kathleen Swienton
Good service good food! Big Menu lots of options. Football Sunday and football on every TV and there was a bunch of TV’s. - Appropriately Critical
What is there to say - one of the best beaches in Maine. A couple of miles of sand, sun, and fun for families. Park at the end of Atlantic Ave if there's no space at the end of Mile road. - Beerlady Tullys
Come here to fuel up for camping or vacation food. Great selection of foods, liquor, wine and beer. - Rich Triblets
Such a variety of home made ice cream flavors! Worth the wait! - Rachel Alexander
