A must for seafood lovers visiting Cape Ann, Woodman’s has been providing families with fresh seafood since 1914, claiming to have even invented the fried clam in 1916! The restaurant provides an “€œeat in the rough”€ concept, where guests can walk right up to a window if they want to grab food and go. Situated on Essex’s Main Street, the restaurant backs into the marsh for river views. It can get crowded on weekends, so arrive early or with toys for restless kids. Finish the experience with homemade ice cream.
