10. The Paddle Inn

Reviewed By EastCoastJedi
The Paddle Inn is an establishment that is not for everyone. They like to have fun and put a positive energy into everything they do. They redefine service by guaranteeing the menu until 10pm then shifting to a late night menu if you rolled in after. Unheard of in the Newburyport restaurant scene.The food is solid and fresh. The drinks are strong and carefully crafted. The beer list is always being refined. The music is not what you would expect in the best possible way. The staff is there when you need them but not overbearing.The Thai fries are so good. The mussels deliver amazing value. The veggie tacos are money. The burger I hear rules. The list goes on. Can be a difficult place to roll with the kids unless you go early in my opinion but just perfect for a night out with friends, date night or even solo you will feel at home. Paddle Inn is winning cause they earn it every day. Stop by and give them a high five from Luke and step into their world for a few.

Make that a seafood platter for 2 is more like for 4. So much food and seafood come on the overwhelming size platter. Clams, shrimp, scallops and haddock are in overabundance on the plate. Scallops were sweet and large. Cooked to perfection with all the tenderness and not any rubbery fried food feel. Clams were good size bellies and the fish was moist and flaky. If you are trying to eat health, run the other way or order a salad instead of the fries.

My wife and I (two older folks, long time New Englanders) stopped in for lunch on a Friday for no other reason than we saw their bill board sign while driving from the north towards Newburyport. Right on the harbor, great views, open bar/table seating. I had the fried combo - two choices of the 4 offered (fish, scallops, whole belly clams, or shrimp). I chose the clams & scallops and they were some of the best tasting that I've ever had in my 50 years of eating fried seafood. A bit on the pricey side ($30 for a lunch meal), but well worth it, taste-wise. My wife had the scrimp tacos, and she raved about the pineapple sauce. Service was attentive. A great choice for a stop along the seacoast.

We have eaten at the Poynt a few times, it has a nice location and atmosphere with a lively bar area. Very modern, open layout.The food has been consistently good and the service excellent. The only downside is that it can be difficult to hold a conversation, as is common in these open layouts. Now I would only go for lunch or if I knew it was going to be less busy.Hi Robert,We are glad you enjoy our atmosphere, food and service. We understand it can get quite noisy when we are busy! Be sure to visit us for lunches on Thursdays & Fridays during the summer. Thank you for taking the time to review us, we appreciate the feedback.Thanks,Katie

This is a great location, and they've landscaped so that it's beautiful outside as well. They had some great choices in terms of food, and what we had was really good - lobster bisque had plenty of lobster in it, and the lobster roll was delicious. However, the service was slow (our server disappeared at times - one time to bring me water, which never materialized) and the lack of cleanliness was really off-putting. I've attached a photo of some sort of fixture hanging from overhead our table - and it's covered in cobwebs. Long, drippy cobwebs. (In early September - this wasn't a Halloween decoration). And a bug in the sink in the bathroom which I reported to the people at the host stand who could not have cared less.There's such potential there - I want to believe that at dinner time the service would better, but there's still the issue of the cobwebs, which didn't happen overnight.Hello, and thank you for writing about our establishment. I'm happy you enjoyed your food and our views. Being an indoor / outdoor restaurant, we do open ourselves to insects coming in, despite precautions we take such as air blowers above doorways. I'm sorry you felt the host did not care about your observation, but I do recall a host getting me for that exact reason in September. Whether it was your instance or another I am not sure. Thank you again for coming to see us and we hope you will come by the next time you are in the area. Regards,Beau

We enjoyed eating at this restaurant close to the waterfront. The place was bustling on a Saturday evening, but we were able to get an inside table. Wine by the glass was pricey, although the serving was generous. I ordered flounder, which was really fresh and came with a heap of garlic potatoes and squash. Our server was great, however, as she cleared the table, she broke my husband's water glass. An unfortunate accident that she apologized profusely for.

Impersonal atmosphere. Halibut and swordfish dishes were good but certainly not outstanding. The creme brûlée dessert ranked among the worst Iâve ever been served.

Walking to downtown from our guest house we passed the MSG and noticed that they were running a happy hour special so we ventured into the converted church. To our delight, everything on the âBarâ menu was 1/2 price. We chose a shrimp cocktail, a flatbread pizza and a burger. Each was delicious and we were delighted we stopped. We recommend. Thank you, DJMCCG. We look froward to welcoming you back again - our bar menu is a great deal, right? Thank for your great review & for stopping in.

Good food, courteous staff, fair prices. Full of locals which usually means consistent food quality. We always look for a restaurant with a lot of locals. We had chicken salad and tuna salad. Pretty normal fair. The freshness was noticeable. The chicken salad was homemade. The place was packed for lunch and it was past 2:00 oâclock. An Enjoyable quick meal.
