The food was delicious, we had a pound of Little Neck clams (21 pieces) and mussels (29 pieces), a cranberry vodka (heavy on the vodka) and a Checker Cab Pale Ale came out to about $30 well worth it for very fresh seafood and drinks. The views are awesome, it does get a little chilly later on so bring a jacket. The only slight negative are the helicopters landing and taking off about 90 yards away but it's not too loud. Overall a 9.5.

I love this place because during the day, I can come by with my dog and have a drink mid-walk; lots of kids during the day too. At night, my husband I love to go to dinner there for its tasty no-frills lobster or clam bake and get a bucket filled with ice and a six-pack of Coronas to avoid spending time waiting at the bar. It's a transporting experience--more like the eastern shore, or Cape Cod, than Chelsea. It's a rustic maritime scene--gritty, real and friendly.

There is NOTHING else in NYC that is like this place.... the downside is that it closes at midnight. But the upside is, there is a million other bars in NYC you can run to after! Start your night here though.. it is so much fun!

"Wow, it's like we're on a cruise ship!" I blurted out. Well maybe not. Surely the lightship is a cat of nine lives. In its current morphed state, the hot spot serves drinks and food, features live bands and hosts dance parties. If its seaside quiet you seek, go in the afternoon or early evening to enjoy a bit of nyc's maritime past. excerpt from www.chatterbox-cafe.com/page3.html

...than right on a dock? I love this bar. It's easily one of my favorite summer spots in NYC. The service can be a little slow, but probably because it's just so jammed all of the time. Their garlic french fries are awesome!
